Just Not Interesting

Operation: Murder gives a Julia-centric mystery. Moonlighting as a student surgeon, Julia suspects hospital-based foul-play and initiates an investigation. Unfortunately, this is exactly the problem with the episode. Murdoch and Crabtree are relegated to cursory detective roles (Brackenreid doesn't even grace the screen) and Julia's arrogant style of...well everything...just doesn't make for an interesting episode. Crabtree's blossoming romance is the only mildly engaging element of the offering but anyone who has watched the Murdoch Mysteries before can likely guess the outcome. The best bit of Operation: Murder is curiously enough the last 90 seconds of the episode where Murdoch gets to display why we started watching Murdoch in the first place. Overall though, just not all that interesting.

Trivia
The first chest compressions were performed in 1891, but the first successful chest compressions were performed by Dr George Crile (1864-1943) in 1903, about 2 years before this episode is set. Mouth-to-mouth resuscitation combined with chest compressions (CPR) was presented at a Maryland Medical Society meeting in 1960. The current recommended method of treatment is rapid chest compressions without mouth-to-mouth resuscitation.
