TaraS1 May 9, 2022 Share May 9, 2022 I signed up for a free trial of PBS Masterpiece just so I could binge Annika. I'm not sure breaking the fourth wall really added anything to the show, but I love Nicola Walker, so it didn't bother me. It was all fairly predictable, including the end of the final episode, but still enjoyable. Plus I thought the cast around Nicola was good, particularly the other officers on her team. (But I will never, ever be able to see Kate Dickie as anyone except the very creepy Lysa Arryn from Game of Thrones lol.) I hope it gets picked up for S2. I just started Before We Die (also on PBS Masterpiece) with Lesley Sharp and liked the first episode enough to continue. I adored her on Scott & Bailey, so I'm sure I'll finish it. 2 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/47356-detective-and-mystery-shows/page/13/#findComment-7444408

wanderingstar May 10, 2022 Share May 10, 2022 Quote I watched the first two episodes of Harry wild today. So far, I think I like it. Each episode is a self-contained mystery so far. The mysteries have been rather meh because they're not traditional whodunnits where we get tons of suspects and guess who committed the crime. It's mostly the deduction that there has been a crime. But Jane Seymour is awesome as the retiree who dates younger men, drinks a bit and is kind of brazen. There was something she said to her son and daughter-in-law in the second episode that made me gasp. I really enjoyed it. Jane Seymour and Rohan Nedd have great chemistry. And Kevin Ryan is also fun as her exasperated detective son. Jane is clearly having a great time with the role. Hope it gets renewed. 3 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/47356-detective-and-mystery-shows/page/13/#findComment-7446516

I like all the characters/actors though my favorite is Florence's eccentric and cranky art-expert father. I hope they keep finding reasons to keep him around. The stories have been decent I think in that I don't generally guess what's going to happen ahead of time.

roseha May 31, 2022 Share May 31, 2022 I finished The Art of Crime on MHZ, at any rate the 5 seasons they are showing. Apparently there is at least another season planned. Those who can't stand "will they or won't they" may get turned off, but I enjoyed the episodes with their artist based themes overall (however the Egyptian episode was pretty weak to me, though it did somewhat address the story of Florence's mother). The final episode of Season 5 was really excellent, involving a victim who left clues based on color codes corresponding to parts of paintings of Delacroix, and a young boy with an amazing memory. I've gone on to Capitaine Marleau, an MHZ series also from France about an eccentric woman detective. I've seen the first two episodes and they were good 90 minute stories with fine casts including some well known French stars. 1 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/47356-detective-and-mystery-shows/page/13/#findComment-7483606

There have been cast changes throughout the years but the quality of the series has not faltered. Quite addicting. It is dark - which I do not usually like - but the characters have been so compelling that I keep watching. Highly recommended.

The lead guy is a wine expert and goes to different vineyards around France to help the owners with their growing problems (bugs, soil issues, etc) so it's beautiful scenery and good mysteries (every vineyard he goes to ends up having a murder). 2 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/47356-detective-and-mystery-shows/page/13/#findComment-7487304

I will say the first season I found the blonde detective's hair a tragedy. What was that? Messy fried bleach blonde updo on a London detective? It just seemed so completely out of sync. I also didn't like the lighting for the series. It was too bright, like tons of natural sunlight and no television lighting outdoors. It was just weird. I love Hidden, a Welsh detective show. But season three, just released, has no closed caption for those of us who find Welsh accents problematic and/or having hearing issues anyway. I had to stop trying after episode two. I don't know if they are fixing it (they did with the last season of Shetland after a short while) but it had the cc option yesterday and after lots of review complaints they seem to have taken the cc option off the menu.

If it was me I think finding one body would make me rethink my dog-walking route. Two of them? Nope. Okay, now I'll watch it. 1 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/47356-detective-and-mystery-shows/page/13/#findComment-7526288

For those of you who care about these things. Apparently complaining in reviews works. Thank goodness. I believe captions are a requirement by the CRTC (in Canada) and the ADA (in the US), so these services know when they’re non-compliant. It’s too bad it seems the complaints are what have sorted things. 1 1 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/47356-detective-and-mystery-shows/page/13/#findComment-7528426
J-Man June 29, 2022 Share June 29, 2022 (edited) With respect to The Barking Murders, which I just finished--it's somewhat challenging to research it since it appears the title of the series has been changed to Four Lives. Some of the tracking services cannot locate it under the original title. IMDB also has it under the new title. Also, as of right now the credits on IMDB are incomplete. Watching the last episode, I was POSITIVE that one of the minor roles in episode 3 was being played by James Bradshaw (the medical examiner on Endeavour.) But he was not listed in the IMDB credits. My identification was validated when the closing credits of Four Lives were displayed.

Irlandesa July 2, 2022 Share July 2, 2022 Ooh, a new episode of Brokenwood Mysteries came out today. They must have dropped it early because of the 4th of July. Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/47356-detective-and-mystery-shows/page/13/#findComment-7532023

Not early, on time according to ad. 1 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/47356-detective-and-mystery-shows/page/13/#findComment-7532375
LisaM July 4, 2022 Share July 4, 2022 On July 8, Trigger Point, starring Vicky McClure from Line of Duty, premieres on Peacock. Per their description: "A tenacious explosives officer in London must come to terms with the loss of her right-hand man all while preventing the next tragedy". I was trying to find out where this would stream in the US and tripped over the trailer. Also - watched the new episode of Brokenwood Mysteries last night. Just as good as always but missing Mrs. Marlowe. Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/47356-detective-and-mystery-shows/page/13/#findComment-7535418
