    Terrible Sequel

    This was a terrible Sequel to the great Dear Prudence 2009 Hallmark Mystery movie. This movie has absolutely zero to do with a mystery . Plot was so dul and boring and except for Seymoure and Lando the acing was lackluster. Seymour and Lando did not have the chemistry they had in Dr Quinn Medicine Woman. They were unable to capture the "magic in a bottle" they had in Dr Quinn. By apppearances and plot it appears this was a low budget movie. Not a good production from Seymour and Jane Keach which was surprising. Their other tv movies of the week, etc.. have been great. Long story short--don't waste your time on this movie. Stop with Dear Prudence and lets hope they will eventually pick up the mysteries again.

    pleasant

    Jane Seymour reprises her role of Prudence McCoy in "Perfectly Prudence," a 2011 TV movie. This film is notable for reuniting Seymour with her Dr. Quinn costar, Joe Lando, who is still handsome with short hair.

    In the last TV movie, Prudence was involved in a murder while on vacation. I'm a little disappointed that this wasn't another mystery. Here, Prudence, a Martha Stewart type, is preparing for another season of her TV show, with her daughter (Katherine Flynn) acting as producer. The only problem is, network execs are making a lot of problems. They want to change everything about the show, 'sex it up,' and give Prudence a young, sexy cohost (Valerie Azlynn). And one of the execs is an old love of Prudence's (Lando) - and the relationship didn't end well.

    Since this is Hallmark, the film didn't have a lot of bite to it. Valerie Azlynn was terrific as Angie, and contributed much-needed energy and humor. Seymour is lovely, but she spent most of the movie being angry. It was good when she finally softened. And it was so nice to see her with Lando again.

    My verdict: just okay. Certainly Seymour can handle a stronger script, and it's a good character with excellent household hints!

    I Highly Recommend It

    Jane Seymour gives a fun performance as this fiery Brit who knows what she wants. Her love interest is great too, as a cynical man who slowly uncrusts and reveals a good heart. There were some funny moments in the movie. And I realized after watching for the first time that the entire thing takes place at this rural mansion.

    Still Good, In Spite Of...

    This movie is still good in spite of how hard they deliberately tried to ruin it.

    "Dear Prudence" was great, a woman who gets dragged into being a detective by circumstance. She was assisted by a young lad, somewhat reminiscent of the "Hettie Wainthrop" series starring Patricia Routledge.

    So how did they try to ruin it? First of all, Prudence is no longer a detective. This was the main point of the entire show, which has now been eliminated completely. Kind of like making an episode of Miss Marple where she turns out to be a knitting instructor on TV instead of a sleuth. I was at about 1:20 in to the film when I finally decided that nobody was going to get murdered.

    Second, in "Dear Prudence" her assistant was young, perhaps teenage, cute, shy and geeky, with lots of personality. In "Perfectly Prudence" they have replaced him with a late-twenties, pudgy, unattractive geek with the personality of clammy dumpling dough. Removes half the reason to watch the show.

    The other half of the reason, though, Jane Seymour, is quite delightful. She is still looking very good.

    Unexpectedly, the movie is stolen by Valerie Azlynn, who has a real flair for comedy. Her crying scenes are particularly hilarious.

    I think it's very ironic that the plot of "Perfectly Prudence" is about the network executives trying to ruin her TV show, destroying everything it stood for and totally revamping it purely for the sake of money, when that is exactly what they did to "Dear Prudence!"

    Well worth watching

    Jane Seymour does a great job in her role as the quirky Heloise-like character, as she has an answer to various problems she faces. One which comes to mind is when she uses hot sauce to remove tarnish off silverware while at dinner. There are many more cute little antidotes used throughout the movie. Well worth watching, James Welch Henderson, Arkansas 1/12/2021
