Here is an analysis I made of the TV Detective's methods. I hasten to add, based an a show that is more than just car chases and shoot-em-up. The detective's methods offer an analogy for the genealogy researcher. To solve the case there is continual review, note taking, revisiting the data, until it is resolved. Note that the detective's method includes "relax and ponder". This is where the puzzle is solved.
Of course, sometimes the subject confesses and gives up all the details. This handy occurrence does not happen often. Hence the detective's methods are well honed. Sometimes you find an ancestor in an hour, along with corroborating evidence. But not often. Hence you can learn a lot from watching a good detective show. Try it!
