    Review of the New Hallmark Mystery - CrimeTime: Freefall

    Review of the New Hallmark Mystery - CrimeTime: Freefall

    You got the Crime. We got the time. 

    Hadley Warner (Greenwood), an experienced crime series actress, comes to a crossroads in her life and career when her television show is canceled. Unsure of her next step in life, she moves her family into the small mountain town of Mystic, Colorado, leaving her Los Angeles lifestyle behind. 

    To her surprise, she is propelled back into her “old life” when a body seemingly falls from the sky and into her backyard. Hadley unexpectedly decides that with her years of character study and experience playing an on-screen crime investigator, she will help Detective Shawn Caden (Macfarlane) solve the case. 

    Shawn isn’t initially a fan of her work or help, but he soon realizes Hadley is a fountain of knowledge and can act out of any situation with so much charm that he starts to fall for her.

    Andrea and Eric had a blast discussing the latest Hallmark mystery, CrimeTime: Freefall, starring Lyndie Greenwood and Luke Macfarlane. 

    This mystery had a lot of laughs and introduced us to one of our favorite supporting characters, Bax.

    We dissect what worked and what parts we felt fell a little short. But there were definitely more highlights in the whacky mystery. 

    Then we try to figure out where in the heck The Way Home is headed. The more we watch it, and the more we discuss it, the more we seem to be wavering between being lost and just generally disinterested.

    A Complete Review of Aurora Teagarden: Til Death Do Us Part.

    A Complete Review of Aurora Teagarden: Til Death Do Us Part.

    In this episode, Andrea tries to convince Eric that Aurora Teagarden is not the worst Hallmark mystery by having him watch Til Death Do Us Part. In this episode, while Aurora plans her marriage to Nick, they stumble on a decades-old murder. Of course, Aurora has to solve it. 

    In addition, we are introduced to Aurora's father, a man seldom talked about and never seen before. 

    So, was Til Death Do Us Part able to grab Eric's further interest?  Were the characters well developed? Was the mystery a quality whodunnit? 

    After we discussed Aurora Teagarden, we delved into the latest episode of The Way Home.  Andrea and Eric have struggled with the basic premise of the second season of this series, as well as the story's pace. Eric also has some choice opinions on the mental health of the characters and the general level of toxicity of the show. 

    Come along and have a listen; let us know if you have seen these shows and if you agree with our opinions. Or maybe we have inspired you to watch an episode of an old mystery you haven't seen.

    A Complete Review of Gilded Newport Mysteries: Murder at the Breakers

    A Complete Review of Gilded Newport Mysteries: Murder at the Breakers

    Step into the lavish world of 1895, as we dissect "Gilded Newport Mysteries: Murder at the Breakers," with our special guest, Eric, who brings a critical eye to the nuances of period piece filmmaking. We grapple with the film's shortcomings, from its pacing to its acting, and how the constraints of a Hallmark budget impact the overall delivery of a historical mystery. While the setting promises a wealth of opulence, the execution leaves us pondering the potential of a different cast and the director's role in shaping young actors' performances within the rushed reality of production schedules.

    Navigating through the tangled love quadrangle of "Gilded Newport Mysteries," we ignite a debate over character chemistry and the leap from book pages to the silver screen, especially regarding the female lead's independence. Our discussion isn't just limited to a single title; we traverse the broader expanse of Gilded Age television, comparing fan reactions to shows like HBO Max's "The Gilded Age" and the cozy alternatives like "Miss Fisher's Mysteries." Through this exploration, we uncover recommendations for fellow enthusiasts of period mysteries and consider how historical fidelity resonates with audiences.

    Rounding off our episode, we voice our heartfelt concerns about the current direction of a beloved TV show, sharing the personal connections we've formed with its storylines. The episode titled "When You Were Young, the Landry Women" stirs up not only nostalgia but also disappointment in the protagonist's emotional journey and the narrative's depth. As we look to the future, we eagerly anticipate our lively group interview with the Justice Warriors, promising insights and perhaps a bit of chaos, as we continue our quest for complex characters and captivating mysteries within our favorite period pieces.
