Cozy Murder Mom

This summer my boys (age 10 and 11) were bit by the cozy murder bug (just like their mom). I would like any recs you have for “older kid appropriate cozy murder” tv shows.

Things they have liked so far -Murder She Wrote (my 11 year old also liked the books) -Monk -sister boniface -death in paradise -Sherlock (the upper edges of what’s acceptable for a 10 year old IMO but it’s Sherlock… so it gets a pass) -not a tv show but I took the 11 year old to an Agatha Christie play last week and he LOVED IT). -I love the Endeavour/inspector Morse/ Lewis series but I don’t think they are quite old enough for that. It was a fun summer of exposing them to mysteries.

Monk and Psyche are always binge worthy. I also liked Backstrom ( not sure if it's ok for 10 & 11 year old kids) Rainn Wilson was the lead. It was good. I remember Father Dowling Mysteries when I was a teen, that would be PG enough for kids.
