Miss Scarlet, détective privée

Stumbled across this show. Have watched 4 episodes so far & loving it. It reminds me a little of The Alienist due to the period setting (not as gruesome though). I hope the series is continued after the first season.

I haven't seen anyone mention this yet but I surely can't be the only one who noticed it...During the credits after each episode, some of the letters are in red font instead of white. I wondered if they spelled clues and yep they do! Fun! Keep an eye out fellow sleuths!

This has been a very welcome addition to a time-worn genre, with interesting sets, great costumes, and an authentic period feel. The final twist in the series may have felt a little contrived, but on the whole the scripts were above average for this type of drama, and Kate Phillips excellent in the lead role.

I'm not sure why I chose to watch this, but I'm glad I did. It had me hooked from the very first argument between the main characters. The murder mystery/detective part is not exactly Sherlock, but it's a light and fun crime show with my favourite romance trope and lots of banter, and I'm sorry to see there are only six episodes so far. I'll definitely be waiting for season two.

The mysteries were great & not obvious. The characters & acting are close to perfect. The debate on women's roles & rights were completely on point without being tiring & somtimes pointless as you see in many other series.
