Another excellent season of this long-running British police procedural. I highly reommend this set and all before it.

I previously owned seasons 1-12. I avoided season 13 as the reviews of it (even from fans of the series) thought it was distasteful. I did order 14. I found it lacked a lot of the drama and depth that the earliest seasons had, but it was nice to see the characters back again. We all get older, right?
As much as I love the series, and I always will, I think it's time to call it quits. To keep popping out episodes at some point, just seems like a desperate act just to "keep going" and it shows. If you are a fan of this great series as I am, then I would recommend getting Season 14 to add to your collection. However, if you aren't attached to the characters and haven't seen the show before, this is not a good place to start!

At almost the conclusion of this series (only one more season remaining) Season 14 just keeps on thrilling viewers with more of Jack Frost's experiences as Detective Inspector Frost and his cohorts at Denton police headquarters as they hunt down local villans, criminal suspects, and returning criminals reigning crime and terror on Denton residents. Stay tuned for the concluding season scheduled at the end of 2009 as Jack Frost finally retires. What then, will we all do?

This series is in my opinion one of the best police detective tv series ever.
And it was great to see them make a full series again. ITV made specials throughout the years which appeared as series in dvd releases. For instance they only made one two episode special this year. Which will appear as a series 15 dvd next year. This may anger people; but that was it this year. One of the greatest weaknesses of British tv has been it's inability to make more episodes of hit series which would have insured greater revenues. So all you get is three episodes here; but each one is movie length so that's really six episodes when they show it as a hour show. Anyways; since ITV is bankrupt due to this low show volume problem and having them bankroll so many different series with different sets and locations it's no wonder that this; one of the all time best may not be around next year. The three shows here are top notch; with Frost taking on a twenty year old case that involves child murder, a fleet street newspeddler and the murders connected to him and a kidnapping of a bus driver and his coworker. The stories are gritty and make sense and could come from real cases and that's why frost has always been at the top and should continue on.

Unlike the American mysteries that rely on special effects and violence, Frost, and, as a a matter of fact, all the British mysteries rely on character and plot, and are therefore far superior. Violence, spectacular effects,and cute quips are no match for good writing and superior acting. I guess it's the influence of Shakespeare coming down through the centuries.
