Fighting crime is a whole lot easier on TV. Bad guys are identified, pursued and brought to justice, all in an hour’s work, less a commercial break or 12.

However formulaic some of them have become, detective shows remain among the most popular fare in the medium. Yahoo!TV identifies some of the top crimebusters in this season’s lineup:

Gil Grissom, Ph.D: CSI 

Dr. Temperance Brennan: Bones

Ned the piemaker: Pushing Daisies

Patrick Jane: The Mentalist

Lilly Rush: Cold Case

Dr. Charlie Epps: Numb3rs

Olivia Dunham: Fringe

Detective Robert Goren: Law & Order: Criminal Intent

Special Agent Derek Morgan: Criminal Minds

Detective Charlie Crews: Life
