Spencer Sisters

I just happen to stumble across this little show. And now I am sitting here binging . It's a light hearted little detective series featuring a mother and daughter duo. I love Lea Thompson. It reminds me a bit of a Hallmarkish detective series. After a couple of episodes, I have become very invested in these characters. The town setting charming. There is a cast of interesting supportive characters. I am waiting to see what happens with the daughter's romantic life in particular with her ex. The mom's character is well played. I can think of several people who could relate to this relationship between the two. I hope this series continues.

So maybe this isn't 9 stars but giving it a boost. It's a good show! Leads are great actresses and story is engaging. Wish it had been given another season or too. Just found this Hallmark channel. :(

The mother daughter story draws you in and the mysteries are interesting enough that you can't always solve the case immediately. The twists keep you engaged with some great love triangle sub plots.

Could the acting be better on side characters sure... But the main cast really works hard to make up for it and the writing is good so you can forgive it. Only other improvement that could be made is the sister jokes do get a little tired after awhile. I mean... Why not just lean into the mother daughter plot and name it The Spenser Women or Spenser detective agency...

Saw the first 2 episodes. It's a crime show with decent amount of comedy and a bit of drama, it's lighthearted.

The 2 main characters and crime solvers are a mother and daughter so it's a bit of an unusual dynamic duo. I like these 2 characters and the good actresses are why I will give the show a chance, the only other recurring characters so far are 2 gay men in very minor roles, they are very cliche and stereotypical. There is also a potential love interest ex boyfriend doctor not sure if he will be a regular.

The crime cases so far have been rather bland but I will give the show a chance.

I like the quick moving detective work between Darby and Victoria, and rubbing each other the wrong way seems to inspire them to discover the hidden truth,....buuuut...

Darby seems too entitled for my taste in her dealings with her mother. She almost seems irrational in her anger, and ungrateful for Victoria's help, financially and in the sleuth work. I wish the writers would create a bit more balance in Darby's character.

I like yesterday's episode BTW, because I can relate to it from my own experience. I develop Android apps, and I'm always careful to have well hidden backups of my code and to keep my home address private. I scratch my head when someone like the developers in this program do not take these precautions. It's their livelihood!

I wasn't sure what to expect from this new series but I'm really enjoying it.

Victoria is a writer of mysteries and her writing is losing its edge. Darby is a police officer who wants to become a detective. Mother and daughter duo, Victoria (Lea Thompson) and Darby (Stacey Farber) start working together to solve crimes and in doing so, begin to mend their fractious relationship.

Although Victoria and Darby don't have a good relationship in the beginning, as the series progresses you can see them starting to realize they are a little too much alike and both need to give a little if they are going to be able to live and work together.

The episodes have been entertaining so far with a combination of humour (thank you Lea Thompson) and drama and the storyline moves at a good pace. All in all, a very likeable series.
