They solve crimes and captivate our attention. Detectives on TV! Since at least the late 1930s, detectives have been a staple of television shows. Most are procedurals like the "Law & Order" contingent, a bunch are from prestige dramas a la "Sherlock," some are comedies (think "Monk" or “Brooklyn Nine-Nine”), and some are even animated ("Inspector Gadget" counts!). But regardless, there's something intrinsically fascinating about watch brilliant minds crack cases in an hour or less. And now, the Great Pop Culture Debate podcast wants to determine: Who is the Best TV Detective of all time?

Join Host Eric Rezsnyak, GPCD panelists Amy Pilott and Kate Racculia, and special guest Josh Duggan from the Munch My Benson podcast as they discuss 16 of the most iconic detectives from television past and present.
