Telemystery, the most complete selection of detective, amateur sleuth, private investigator, and suspense television mystery series now available or coming soon to DVD

Telemystery is your source for one of the most comprehensive listings of crime drama, amateur sleuth, private investigator, mystery and suspense television series, mini-series and made-for-television movies, now available on or coming soon to DVD or Blu-ray disc.

Yesterday we profiled four television series being released this week. Today we're featuring two additional series, both European, which we weren't quite sure were actually going to be released. Indeed, both series have 1-2 month shipping timeframes.

Beck: Episodes 1-3, a Telemystery Crime Series

He's got no style, he's got no flash and he's squarely in middle age. But police detective Martin Beck (Peter Haber) is good at one thing: methodically catching criminals so that they can be put away … for a long time in the Swedish crime drama Beck, based on a character created by Maj Sjöwall and Per Wahlöö.

Two sets are being released:

Beck: Episodes 1-3 is available on DVD and consists of these three feature length (90 minute) episodes: "The Decoy Boy", "The Man with the Icons", "White Nights".

Beck: Episodes 4-6 is available on DVD and consists of these three episodes: "Serial Killer", "The Pearl Hotel", and "The Monster".

All episodes are in Swedish with English subtitles.

A total of 26 episodes originally aired over a 13 year period, so there are plenty more to come!
