Some of the added detail has an "anorak" quality about it. Is it really of interest to show the precise time that each epiisode was shown?! It's a bit of a distraction. BONNUIT 07:03, 20 January 2007 (UTC)[reply]

It may be the blockquotes are not used for statements of less than four lines (gosh, those rules), but the following is a heck of mouthful:

Although well regarded by some, such as television historian Andrew Pixley who, recalling the show in 2002, wrote, “Finally, I thought, somebody had been brave enough to craft a modern thriller which, while captured on videotape, boasted all the style, fun and imagination of the great British film series of the 1960s such as The Avengers and Department S”,^[1] Virtual Murder remains largely forgotten today and, as of early 2007, has never been repeated, nor has it ever been released in any video format.
