Queens of Mystery

I love mysteries but am not a fan of the dark brooding detectives that flood American and British programing. There are many more of those than those following in the footsteps of Miss Marple Or Rosemary & Thyme. Just good old detective work with pleasant characters. I was so pleased to see this new one. I have watched the above mentioned and any other I can find multiple times just waiting for the possible new loveable detective. This is a gem that fits that bill. It is so creative and I love the addition of narration. Wonderful - MORE PLEASE ACORN!

Reminds me of "Pushing Daisies". Insights to what the characters are thinking, fable like story telling, brilliant, saturated colors. Characters all a bob off plumb. A nice change from the gritty reality of most crime related entertainment.

Incredibly clever and intentionally over the top at times, Queens of Mystery manages to pay homage to old school murder mystery novels and television whilst adding its own unique charm. Every costume, every set piece seems meticulously chosen, adding to an overall whimsical feel. Incredible female characters who are similar enough to be believable as sisters but nuanced enough to be entertaining make an already entertaining premise work fantastically well. Here's hoping for a season 2!

It took me a bit to get used to the narrator, but this is an enjoyable show with likable characters and stories that make sense. The show has just started, just created the characters and fleshed them out. I hope it returns.

Queens is just enough quirky to temp you to see more. An ongoing mystery of Matilda's parentage keeps you intrigued. Can't wait for season 2
