As I said in parentheses later in the paragraph, it is good. I do like them. As I also like Lousie Penny's as-much-or-more-awarded Inspector Gamache series.
But, I also like many other much-less-awarded series just as much or even a lot more. So that's the element of surprise for me - that a few series seem to soak up a disproportionate chunk of the awards/nominations - title after title after title. I haven't done any statistical analysis of this or anything, so this is just my impression, but that's the issue for me - not that I don't like this series on its own.
