2023 was a great year for TV drama, with second series being granted to 'Only Murders In The Building', 'Good Omens', 'From', 'Vigil', 'The Afterparty', and 'The Lazarus Project', while intriguing new dramas included 'The Big Door Prize', 'Severance', 'Bodies', and 'Deadloch'. I enjoyed 'Squid Game: The Challenge' almost as much as the original series, and both 'Succession' and 'Better Call Saul' ended on a high after gripping finales. Once again, some of the best things about these shows are the theme tunes, and so here is a second collection of my favourites, including two from sci-fi shows that I've enjoyed over the past few years - 'The Orville' and 'Star Trek: Lower Decks' (OK, I know it's an animated show but it's really well done and doesn't just play it for laughs), plus the superb comedy/drama 'What We Do In The Shadows'. Where the piece is only about a minute or so long I've extended them so that most are now around the two-minute mark, with the seventeen tracks making up a reasonable 40-minute album of mostly crime-related TV shows, and if there are any here that you don't know then do check them out as they are all well worth seeing.
