Which detective series is easy to watch?

I’ve already watched Father Brown and Shakespeare and Hathaway.

I’m ill with Covid(for the 6th bloody time) getting next to no sleep and need something that requires minimal brain cells to watch because I don’t have the energy or cognitive function to watch anything with too many characters or a complex plot. I don’t want anything disturbing either.

Any suggestions would be appreciated.

TIA

The 90s Murder Most Foul is on prime (i think), comedy murder series starring Dawn French (in case anyone doesn't remember)

Hilariously 90s!

Death in Paradise.
The Closer
The Mentalist
Foyles War

Death in Paradise, particularly the early ones is the best

I cannot recommend Miss Fisher's Murder Mysteries enough. Gorgeous architecture, the costumes are AMAZING, and the eponymous detective is glamorous and feisty and sexy (and in her forties) and just a delight. The supporting characters are wonderful too. I think I've just talked myself into a rewatch!
