Cut, Color, Murder

And I thought Aurora Teagardens snooping was annoying. Wow ! This Hairstylist character is SO much worse. She steals info from police dept & then reveals it to suspects while shes asking them very invasive questions. She goes thru peoples drawers & takes photos, and illegally collects dna sample from someone. Shes the one doing all the investigating. And the Police Chief reveals a bunch of details to her and late he tells her shes "been a great help". What ?? The police would NEVER be able to use any of the "evidence" in court. She should be arrested for obstructing the course of justice ! Ugh !! Such a shame because I like the lead actors.

Those that called this a snooze fest ... I'm not sure what you were watching. This one kept us guessing to the end. Love Julie Gonzalo and Ryan McPartlin aka Captain Awesome. 😊 Yeah it's not true to life but come on this is Hallmark, it's for entertainment not factual real life. We found it entertaining! Loved how the characters progressed from disliking each other to mutual respect to maybe a spark to the cliffhanger ending. All we can say is MORE please!!

This is a new mystery series on Hallmark is which a hair cutter, Ali, at her salon seems to be the best detective the town has. She is a widow who lost her husband in the line of duty. The current Sheriff Tom takes advantage of Ali's knowledge and observation skills to help him solve local crimes...of which there are not a lot. In comes a new out of town detective and a murder at the local beauty pageant. The head of the pageant, the murder victim, has a lot of enemies. But it is a real shock to discover Ali's sister being treated as a suspect...this makes it personal!

I liked the two leads and I think they have potential for chemistry. I am a little concerned about what they will do going forward a hair salon fits in well with a beauty pageant, but beyond solving her husbands murder how will they tie in a hair salon?

I liked the cast and this mystery worked well. I will tune in for the next one to see how it goes.

At this point it doesn't come close to my three favorites Hannah Swensen's Murder she Baked, Aurora Teagarden mysteries and Mystery 101.

God Bless Hallmark for attempting to create interesting crime dramas, but the recurring theme is getting a bit worn out. First, there is a proprietor of a cupcake shop solving murders, then a Crossword writer doing the same, followed by a college lecturer outwitting the bland "professional" detective to solve crimes and now, a hair stylist who is the female version of Sherlock Holmes. I suppose that all of the police professionals did not take notes at the Academy nor have any time on the job. This latest drama follows the same formula, that is, a hair cutter (whose clients only need a trim and are in the chair for under two minutes), who lives in a very hospital-clean town and works in a beauty salon that never needs hair trimmings swept from the floor. On top of her brilliance, she is rude and snarky to the new detective, so you know that romance is in the offing! Also, everyone in the perfect town appears to be in the six-figure income bracket...no homeless, no graffiti, no cigarette buts on the ground in this Hallmark World. Plus, their private homes appear to be from the pages of House Beautiful. If you like perfect environments, cleanly scrubbed citizens and storybook tales, this is the series for you.

I gave it a chance, I think Ryan and Julie are both very talented and I've enjoyed their other movies and projects...but I didn't care for this mystery. I hope that it's not turned into a mystery series-especially when other mysteries were cancelled by the network with better storylines and ratings.
