I can't get into Elsbeth and only watched the first episode. I hate when you know who committed the murder and it's just a matter of the detective figuring it out. Plus Elsbeth really got on my nerves - she's beyond quirky.

Not sure if this where to put this but I'm recuperating from an accident - leg fractures so I can't move much - and watching alot of daytime tv. Been watching alot of Perry Mason and Murder she Wrote on the Great American Family channel ( a channel I don't get at home). I swear every other commercial is about their Christmas movies - they actually have a countdown clock! - and how this will be the greatest season yet for their Christmas movies. If the commerical isn't about the Christmas movies it's about Candice Cameron Bure and her new mystery movies series coming soon.

Watched the first episode of the new season of Murder is My Life. Nice to have it back. Enjoyed it.

This was definitely my least favorite episode - I just didn't find it that interesting Quite a bit seemed rather ridiculous - like none of the criminals so him at the boat yard or the whole warehouse scene. I didn't think it made any sense for him to travel all the way to Maine for $10,000. It probably cost a thousand just to get that humongous truck and trailer to Maine and back.

I've watched the first two episodes of the new season and must admit I actually enjoyed the episodes for the most part and certainly more than last season. I can find the bit about Martha's mom and her online dating as a humourous break but I don't like the part about Martha and Humphrey's journey to be foster parents for I'd rather concentrate on the mysteries. Maybe I didn't pay enough attention to Humphrey but this season I find he looks terriibly thin - maybe it's just the clothes?.

Acorn recently announced season renewals for several shows including My Life is Murder, Recipes for Love and Murder, and Whitstable Pearl. Harry Wild season 3 will premieers on May 13

I'd say place #2 didn't scream "Spain". It and the view could have been in California. I am surprised they didn't take it since usually harping on wanting something that says "I'm in wherever) they settle for the biggest place or the place closest to what they had in the states. Wife talked about her father in Mallorca but never mentioned her mother (or did I miss that) nor mentioned when she came to the US. I got the feeling she was actually raised in California. With her father in Mallorca and family in Madrid why did she choose Malaga which isn't close to either? Especially since she said she wanted her girls to get to know them.

There is a hotel for servicemen and women (both active duty and retired) called the Hale Koa. I think DOD personnel on business can also stay there. Rates depend on your rank. It is next to the Hilton Hawaiian Village. It has the best pools - large enough to actually swim in.

I too thought it would be the smug CIA agent. I must have dozed off for a few seconds because when they arrested the guy I didn't know who it was. I did like the humor provided by the trading jobs thing. There is just something about Kaise that I don't like. Like in this case she goes from being too timid to want to answer the phone (the woman needing the base police) to working the case when she answers Webb's call (which was only her second phone call). And it's not like she's competent in field work.

The ending really didn't clear up anything. I never understood what either Haley or David did for a living. Does she have a job in Hong Kong? Why is she staying there? What was the rug for? Mercy is only truly messed up person. How is she going to support a child? Margret staying in Hong Kong to do what? Hasn't Gus been missing for a year? What can she do that hasn't already been done? She decides at the airport to stay? Clarke didn't put up much resistence. I thought the table Margret was led to had only 2 chairs. So who exactly was talking to who? Sometimes it seemed like Margret to Mercy, sometimes Margret and Haley, sometimes Mercy and Haley. It was just downright strange. I will say this was beautifully filmed I liked the glimpses of Hong Kong. But otherwise this was a terrible show and as I said in my last review the real mystery is why did I watch it til the end.

It was a lovely tribute. It seems a lot of thought and care went into picking the flashbacks which must have been quite some task considering the volume of work available. The overall theme of the stories we leave behind was just so appropriate and so touching. Great job!

I can't really explain why I'm still watching this. Although I'll admit I did skip over quite a bit. I liked seeing Hong Kong in the rain - it fit into the episode better than some of the people. Can't figure out why in the world the storylines with Tony and Olivia (?) were included. Didn't think we had even seen them before. Olivia did have quite some house. I found the scenes with the Phillipino women and there day off interesting (more so than anything else that's been shown in the series. I can't imagine having to leave my family, especially my own children, to go to a foreign country to work and especially to work for these pampered selfish beings. The only other scenes worthwhile was Clarke and the preacher. I do have so many questions, such as: How did Clarke even end up with Margaret? WIth so much money spend on production values couldn't they have shelled out a bit more for Margaret's wig????

Just finished reading "The Running Grave" and really liked it. Although I did think it was too long but even in parts that I thought could have been cut - like the Charlotte bit there were a few insightful nuggets of why Strike is how he is that were interesting to read. I do hope they film this one - but to do the story justice it would probably have to be 4 or 5 episodes. I think they are currently filming The Ink Black Heart but even if so it probably won't be shown till very late this year or next year.

Not sure how i feel about this show - I find it rather slow but enjoying seeing Hong Kong. I'm not finding Margaret (Nicole) very likable. Nitpicking - is Hilary wearing the same pants in every scene? It's not an attractive look on her. Glad it's not just me thinking that Nicole Kidman is odd looking. Seriously if I didn't know beforehand I wouldn't recognize her.

Thought it slow. Wasn't sure I was even going to finish the episode. The time jump was somewhat ackward and at first didn't know who he had married - in the first scene with her she didn't say her name. Took me 3 times to get to the end - which was rather stunnng and eerie. Hate the poor lighting throughout but especially in these scenes at the abby- made it hard at first to see what had happened.
