Spencer Sisters

I just happen to stumble across this little show. And now I am sitting here binging . It's a light hearted little detective series featuring a mother and daughter duo. I love Lea Thompson. It reminds me a bit of a Hallmarkish detective series. After a couple of episodes, I have become very invested in these characters. The town setting charming. There is a cast of interesting supportive characters. I am waiting to see what happens with the daughter's romantic life in particular with her ex. The mom's character is well played. I can think of several people who could relate to this relationship between the two. I hope this series continues.

I like the quick moving detective work between Darby and Victoria, and rubbing each other the wrong way seems to inspire them to discover the hidden truth,....buuuut...

Darby seems too entitled for my taste in her dealings with her mother. She almost seems irrational in her anger, and ungrateful for Victoria's help, financially and in the sleuth work. I wish the writers would create a bit more balance in Darby's character.

I like yesterday's episode BTW, because I can relate to it from my own experience. I develop Android apps, and I'm always careful to have well hidden backups of my code and to keep my home address private. I scratch my head when someone like the developers in this program do not take these precautions. It's their livelihood!

Murder She Wrote.. It is not!

Feels like simple fluff,where the crime gets figured out before it even starts.. The clues oddly just fall in their lap,it's all too easy(Scooby-Doo)gave us more to figure out! Lol.

I agree with others the title is an odd choice,despite it being a failed attempt comedic-wise.

It's full of clichés,plot holes & more! As mentioned,fluff.

Not saying it's the worse tv show,however don't feel this will be a long-lasting series.

It was cast ok decent & acting ok,plus above-average cinematography.

The dynamic between daughter and mom,seem a bit far fetched.. Not sure if it's Lea trying too hard in her acting,working at recapturing her youth & so forth.

Also.. Why is the daughter so bitter and full of angst,she just seems a bit entitled yet so does mom.

Worth a watch but,don't expect quality either.

It was good. I can't believe they cancelled it really did have great potential. The networks are playing with us. Each time we like something it's cancelled, The Gourmet Detective, Crossword Mysteries, Curious Caterer, Mystery 101, shall I go on? MatchMaker Mysteries and Picture Perfect were not even given a chance, not to mention Morning Show Mysteries! So many great shows and they cancel them. I thought with streaming competition we could have more flexibility in the stats these Executives seem to say they use when really they use a dartboard and their personal interests! Let's give us a chance and give the shows more of a chance!!!

All Darby Spencer (Stacey Farber) wants to do is to follow her late father's footsteps and be a good police detective. She quits the police force in frustration after an undeserved reprimand. She breaks up with her cheating boyfriend and moves out. She visits her famous mystery writer mother Victoria Spencer (Lea Thompson). She's not a happy camper. There are abandonment issues. When a friend gets falsely accused, the two women join forces to solve the case. They form the Spencer Sisters Detective Agency solving various cases.

Stacey Farber and Lea Thompson are both great fun actresses. There is good chemistry between them. The rest of this Canadian show is a bit janky. The overall production is not at a good level. Still, these two leads give it the old college try and comes up with some fun. It lasted for only one season.
