Aurora Teagarden Mysteries: Heist and Seek

I created this review just to respond to the reviewer asking about Sally. Yes, she is being played by the same actress who has played the character since the beginning. However, the priceless facial expressions that Sally is famous for are quite frankly missing in this latest installment. This is what more than likely confused the other reviewer. Best guess? Botox. It's a shame because Sally has always been my and my daughter's favorite character just because of her classic visual responses.

I gave this a 5 because my daughter and I can't stand Nick. Although Aurora began the series with revolving boyfriends, they seemed to have settled her with Martin, whom we deemed the perfect fit. We can only surmise that the actor's schedule became too overwhelmed with the increased number of season episodes required in his main series "Murdoch Mysteries," therefore could no longer commit to playing Martin. The actor is amazing, however; the only actor who could stand his own against the amazing Aurora. My daughter and I refer to Nick by a variety of "nick"names: "Mr. Bland," "Mr. Check-Him-For-A-Pulse," and "Mr. No-Personality." It's a shame that this series has decided to stick with him because he's an actor with absolutely zero range. He's the same character in every Hallmark production he appears in. This character/actor is not in any way worthy of Aurora.

Other than that, I did enjoy the mystery aspect, but it's definitely hard to overcome the poor (IMHO) addition of Nick.

The library where Aurora Teagarden works is having an Elizabethan week and for a fundraiser they are having a fundraiser Elizabethan style. But the prize exhibit is an actual crown wore by her at the 1597 debut of Love's Labour Lost. Someone in a clever scheme heists the crown.and there s a big roomful of suspects.

Candace Cameron Bure leads her Real Murders club including cousin Dylan Sloane.to investigate to the usual consternation of the cops. But she knows sometimes better than they.

The culprit comes from wat out of left field and all I will say is that the crime was done for not the usual motives. It's what baffes the police iand also Aurora until almost the end of the film.

A good start to the latest round in the Teagarden series.

I think I agree with the other reviewer that I much prefer Yannick Bisson as the boyfriend, because I love him in Murdoch. This new guy is suffering in comparison because yeah, not working for me. Ro is so much smarter and better than that. Love the rest of the cast but the writing has suffered in comparison to the older episodes.

Candace Cameron Burre's acting is superb but why do you make her wear those hideous wigs? The color is horrible and it looks so fake (no part, stiff, orange). Everyone else's hair looks natural. I can't focus on the episode for looking at that awful wig! Stop making her wear it. Her natural hair is beautiful!

This series would be much better if each episode was only an hour long. Two hours is too long. This show is really slow and gets boring quickly.
