Who would you want to solve your murder?

Post by TM2-Megatron »

I saw this on another board, and thought it might be a fun poll to post here. I've expanded the options a bit for this one.

So, if you were murdered; what famous fictional detective/team would you want working on the case?

Personally, I'd probably go with Monk. Not only is he a genius, but he's incredibly funny; so at least my murder would have a some crazy hijinks to lighten the mood.

A rather grisly topic, mainly because I gotta be dead (and murdered at that!) in order to choose who'd solve for me.

I chose Other, because I'd want Remington Steele and Laura Holt to solve my murder. Or maybe Jessica Fletcher. Either way, a 1980s TV character would solve my murder and it'd be an episode of the show.

Jessica Fletcher all the way! Can't it be someone else's murder so I can meet her, though?

If it were just any random person's murder, though, there'd hardly be grounds for a poll. When you're the one who's been murdered, you have a vested interest in the case being solved.

Thomas Magnum, P.I. baby!

At least SOMEONE would be getting laid during my murder investigation, and Higgins and his high pants would no doubt make an appearance.

Not that he would ever touch a murder case, but Jim Rockford anyways. No contest.

Phillip Marlowe because the murder probably would not be solved but it lead to five other murders and lots of sex.

My number one Choice would be:

Dr. Sloan & Gang (Diagnosis Murder) or Jordan Cavanough & Gang (Crossing Jordan)

but if they couldn't

Matlock, Fletcher, or Lenny Brisco (L&O) would do.

Sherlock Holmes has almost a 100% success record, so he has my confidence. He was only tricked by about four people in his life, if I recall the tale correctly.
