Mystery 101: Killer Timing

7.6 stars.

This is probably my third or fourth favorite of the 'Mystery 101' series. The reason I'm not totally sure is that I've yet to see #7 and #5 was my favorite, but the next episode could change everything.

My boring introduction being established, I will talk about the specifics of this episode. I suspected one particular person as the antagonist, but the writer brilliantly placed a decoy, a red herring if you will, to throw us off course. They succeeded, and I was pleasantly surprised at the end. The overall archenemy being the serial killer the Wolf Man, was an interesting twist on the usual semi-mundane plots. At the end you will see yet another twist of that particular plot line as well. Good job on this episode, and I'm looking forward to #7. I really do hope there is more to come in 2023 or 2024. For now I will savor the flavor and wait a day or two before moving on to episode 7.

This was the best in the series to date. Was almost a year since the last one. Erin Cahill makes a nice addition to the cast. Ended with a mystery to solve so another must be on the way.

The characters really work here. I really enjoy what looks like real chemistry between the two leads. By far the best but I still believe they are holding back. It's ok for the two leads to get joined. The events in the movie were a little soft, almost like the writers wanted to much in the necessary timeframe. Note to Hallmark, make a4 hour show but display it two hours at a time. Could have made way more out of the wolfman. Also could have spent more time on ex wife.

That being said I know what I'm watching ang this series I really like.

Overall the movie was really good. Erin Cahill was a good addition. I was ready to give this movie a 10, but the handling of the Wolfman at the end was disappointing.

Okay, there are several things happening at the same time and it's kind of messy: Travis has to testify in Chicago for a case he was involved in and his ex-wife, Kate is there. Amy is offered to be head of a committee to select a new dean for the students. While getting together to have dinner, a house explodes, leaving Travis hurt. 3 different mysteries are woven together.

I think I have said this in every Mystery 101 review I have ever done but I just LOVE these movies. The most important thing for me is the story itself, and the most important element: the chemistry between Kristoffer and Jill. I don't care if things are accurate of not, specially the procedures and stuff, they are only a mild annoyance.

I love how flirty Amy and Travis are, they don't even pretend anymore. And I love the fact that Graham (Amy's dad) is their number one fan.

We have new characters! The first one was Maria Valdez, Travis new's partner. And Travis' ex wife, an FBI agent called Kate. I like her. When I first saw the trailer, I didn't know what to expect but i'm glad that she just was there to do her job and didn't have any intentions towards Travis. (It would have been a terrible cliche)

Amy fighting the bad guy in high heels? Unrealistic. Uncomfortable. Badass. There wasn't enough Bud in this one, I like him.

THE ENDING? I did NOT see that plot twist coming. (maybe I should have) I was pleasantly surprised. Also, the final moments of this one?W They came out of the blue but that means that we will definitely have a 7th movie and I'm SO HAPPY!
