Grosse Pointe Garden Society

I agree with a previous reviewer this is campy like desperate housewives and also is a "Temu" version of HTGAWM. The back and forth between present day and 6 months is the only thing making it interesting - and yet confusing at the same time. I lost interest mid-way through episode two and had to force myself to watch to the end. Aja Naomi King is giving Emmy worthy performance but the Other characters are just meh. Alice's relationship is unbelievable. And we are living with greedy rich people taking over the country in real life - I don't want to also watch it for entertainment value on my screen.

I absolutely love this show. The actors are great and all the characters very likeable. My only complaint is I'm sick and tired of all the switching with the TWO WEEKS AGO...FOUR DAYS AGO.... etc. It is obnoxious and makes it difficult to have a flowing story line. I'm sure hoping it will have a second season because I look forward to it each week.

I was excited when I saw this show was coming. I'm a big fan of the kinda cheesy, kinda dark murder mystery genre. The idea sounded intriguing, someone is murdered but who is it? The first episode was good. But now 4 episodes in and it's losing its luster. The constant timeline changes can be confusing. And it if I'm honest, the main characters are not very likeable. I can't stand a character that constantly gets in their own way and is completely oblivious how their behavior affects everyone else. "Alice" springs to mind. The other characters have equally annoying traits.

I like how it's filmed, the scenery, the small town feel.

I wanted to love it, but right now mehh.

I love how this show is constantly testing if you know who "quiche" is. I love Aja Naomi King and Birdie! I really hope it gets a season 2. The editing back and forth between the timelines is perfect because they add text clues but also the coloring is different. I do weekly recaps on my TikTok channel and my audience and I are having a blast trying to figure out what's all going on. I love how the 4 main characters are like a merry band of misfits who get into all sorts of trouble on top of a murder. It's fun and light but full of drama lol. I do wish first seasons were longer than 10 episodes to give shows more of a chance for a season 2.

I think the show could be good. The actors were good, the storyline is interested. But there is one big issue with it. The constant changing of time. It makes it difficult to follow when and where things are happening. I really like the personalities involved, that they're all brought together by this one club. I like their dynamic too. But when a single episode changes times a half dozen times, I start to lose interest, especially if you're not paying super close attention to it and miss the sign that the time changed again. I like the mystery idea of not knowing who was murdered and wish I could keep going with the show. But it has a major flaw that was just too much.
