I'm obsessed with this show. This is a mystery murder-of-the-week show, but it's really about the relationship between the two main characters - Anna, a young woman who sees ghosts/spirits, and Yakov, the police detective. I also liked all of the other regular characters - Anna's family, the detective's assistant, the neighbor, the newspaper reporter, the police chief, etc. I don't know much about 19th century Russian life, but the show very effectively conveys a sense of a previous era. Also, I love Anna's beautiful dresses. She seems to have at least one new one each episode. I've watched all 56 episodes... more than once.

There are flaws, but I am so captivated by the good parts of this series that I don't care.
