Morning Show Mysteries: Murder Ever After

A new head of homicide is not what morning show host Billie Blessings (Robinson Peete) needs, however. While helping her friend, Maggie Carson (Francesca Bianchi), cope with an attack on her father, Ryan (Steve Makaj), Billie discovers human remains in his basement, a find that puts both Carsons on top of Price's suspect list. He thinks that father or daughter may killed Ryan's much younger second wife, Phoebe (Meghan Heffern), missing since a New Year's party years ago. Billie knows that neither her friend, an assistant district attorney and her former babysitting charge, nor her father, the affable high school gym teacher, are capable of murder, but she also knows that Maggie is not being forthright regarding Phoebe's disappearance

Starts out well, but just crumbles with an unfocused plot, convoluted and dialogue that isn't committed. The acting, however, is good - the lead actress is likeable and smart, but overall a weak episode.

6/10 - it is nice to see the Morning Show Mysteries series with Holly Robinson Peete make its big return.

After the disaster of an episode in another Hallmark series ' When Calls the Heart' (Elizabeth and Lucas) I was concerned about Billie with another character (not Rick Fox). But It worked! And it worked well! I've enjoyed watching this series and I get attached to characters, but this works. Looking back she and Ian never fully clicked. This new character appreciates her and the chemistry was good. I love her aunt. I enjoy the Phil and Lucy characters and the bond they have with Billie. Not sure about the new reporter, yet. Please keep this series going. I really enjoy it.

Wish the new reporter was in the warehouse at the end and left there. He's annoying and doesn't add anything to the series.

Loved the new characters even the reporter. But the police would know right away if a skeleton was a man or woman. That doesn't make sense.
