LisaM September 12, 2020 Share September 12, 2020 Late to the party - just finished a binge of Season 1 and am into the beginning of Season 2 (Danny departs, Joy dies - that surprised me, Daughter alive but wants nothing to do with Blake). I think that Jean is my favorite character but Mattie is close to the top. Link to comment
ForReal September 15, 2020 Share September 15, 2020 I watched the first three seasons and couldn't find four or later. I'll be interested to hear how you like the show. Link to comment
LisaM September 20, 2020 Share September 20, 2020 I have just started Season 4 and so far, I am thrilled with the new Superintendent, Frank. What a welcome change from Munro, who became a bit too cartoon bad guy. Blake was shown to have success after success - despite his unusual methods - so Munro's refusal to treat Blake with anything but disdain and contempt did not ring true for me. I really liked when Frank told Blake to just keep doing what he is doing since he is clearly having success. Bill Hobart seems to have changed his tune abruptly too. It's also unclear whether Blake could survive financially without being the police surgeon. We know that he has patients but his practice does not seem to be very busy. Knowing whether Blake "had" to retain the job would be a key point. Jean and Blake have finally moved forward! It looks as if we are about to lose Mattie. I've enjoyed the character so I will be sorry to see her go. 2 Link to comment
LisaM October 5, 2020 Share October 5, 2020 I finished Season 5 and also watched the 2 episodes of the Blake Mysteries starring Jean. I really liked the last episode of Season 5 with the wedding and the end of the Tynemans. I had grown to like Patrick so I was surprised when it was revealed that he had died. The actor who plays Charlie only made a cameo appearance at the wedding so he must have been unavailable for filming. It's a shame that Mattie did not come back for the wedding. The Blake Mysteries started slowly but I grew to like the Jean/Alice Harvey team and would have watched more episodes. Happy to see that Alice became the Police Surgeon. Strange that there was no mention at all of Charlie or Rose from the prior series. I thought that the title work and the music for both series was terrific. Link to comment
ForReal October 17, 2020 Share October 17, 2020 The last episode I saw was with Blake and Jean on the bus, which felt hopeful, so when I saw a spoiler about his wife coming back, I wasn't sure I wanted to watch that even if I was able to find the series again. I like Jean's character and definitely would watch her on her own. Link to comment

ForReal June 16, 2023 Share June 16, 2023 I am finally finishing this show and I'm on Season 5. I like Rose, but I think I liked Mattie better. It's interesting to see how divorce was viewed, particularly by the church. 2 Link to comment

Gambit Media Group created and produced "The Doctor Blake Mysteries". " There was not a lot of information, but I am pretty sure this is who it was referring to. 1 Link to comment

ForReal August 23, 2023 Share August 23, 2023 It was called "The Blake Mysteries: Ghost Stories," where Lucien is missing and Jean solves the mysteries. https://www.imdb.com/title/tt8517292/?ref_=ttep_ep2 1 Link to comment
