If the bleakness of a show like "Broadchurch" isn't for you, give this lighthearted BBC procedural a go instead. Set on the fictional Caribbean island of Saint Marie, it follows a fish-out-of-water detective on secondment from London as he solves the seemingly endless number of confusing murders that take place, assisted by a handful of local police. Now onto its ninth season, "Death in Paradise" is escapism at its best, right down to the unintentionally hilarious cold open to each episode, where the dramatic discovery of a dead body is immediately followed by the jarringly upbeat reggae tones of the show's opening theme.
