The stupid burns, we should just put it out with fire. *nod*
I think ableism is the prejudice against disabled people, although on the internet it usually means "stop calling people idiots, it's offensive to the stupid people"
Wire in the Blood Cracker Silent Witness Prime Suspect Dalziel and Pascoe Case Histories Taggart there's also the mrs bradley mysteries which are set in the 1920's with diana rigg, you'll love them but they're not really crime/detective/mystery oh, there's Cadfael (medieval monk derek jacobi solving murders) Whitechapel - the first two seasons were awesome!
they should keep you going for a while be warned, UK tv is a lot more lax than US tv, and so will show things that the US would never dream of showing ever we have our tv shows written by ruth rendell and people like that, and bones is considered light enough to show in the early afternoon here. Wire in the Blood has my headcanon casting as constantine in the lead role and is awesome, but it's very very grue.
I was too wimpy for Wire in the Blood but I have seen Cadfael, Silent Witness, Prime Suspect (both versions), I really really liked Case Histories and I saw Whitechapel at your rec.
What do you think of Copper? It kinda reminded me of a Western.
There was something with Rupert Everett in it a few months back- he plays a minor role, husband of a murder victim, and the main detective was played by a woman I believe was once on Spooks. Does that sound at all familiar?

I didn't watch Copper, it takes a lot to intrigue me, I just don't want tv
I watched a few eps of Ripper Street but it was slow.
Case Histories is running season 2 NOW!
Wire in the Blood does require some guts of steel but it's so worth it
one of the very early eps has dougray scott in it
Try Dalziel and Pascoe, or Taggart (although you'll probably need subtitles and still never guess the murderer as it's in high glaswegian)
