Grosse Pointe Garden Society

I really like this new show! It keeps me laughing in parts along with the dark murder mystery. It doesn't take itself too seriously . I like the fact that we know who the murderers are but not the who they murdered or why. I also like the interplay between the main characters . I did find the time differences a bit confusing in the first episode , but I did get used to the time switches in the following episodes ( and it was fun looking for the clever notices of the time switch in the scenes). It reminds me a bit of " Desperate Housewives" which was one of my favorite shows back in the day, so that is a compliment. All in all I think it's a good show that is a bit different from what is currently on tv.

I was excited when I saw this show was coming. I'm a big fan of the kinda cheesy, kinda dark murder mystery genre. The idea sounded intriguing, someone is murdered but who is it? The first episode was good. But now 4 episodes in and it's losing its luster. The constant timeline changes can be confusing. And it if I'm honest, the main characters are not very likeable. I can't stand a character that constantly gets in their own way and is completely oblivious how their behavior affects everyone else. "Alice" springs to mind. The other characters have equally annoying traits.

I like how it's filmed, the scenery, the small town feel.

I wanted to love it, but right now mehh.

I just don't understand the bad reviews here. I love this show! It's one of our new favorites. There are so many twists and turns, and it's very suspenseful. It does remind me a lot of HTGAWM, which was another favorite. I like the quirky characters and the writing. The actors are good in their roles. The back and forth and way they present the time frame are interesting to me. Soooo many hateful, cruel people you can see why someone got murdered! Someone else recommended to me, and I'm glad I listened. Always ends on a cliffhanger, leaving you waiting for more. And I just can't wait til next episode!

I think the show could be good. The actors were good, the storyline is interested. But there is one big issue with it. The constant changing of time. It makes it difficult to follow when and where things are happening. I really like the personalities involved, that they're all brought together by this one club. I like their dynamic too. But when a single episode changes times a half dozen times, I start to lose interest, especially if you're not paying super close attention to it and miss the sign that the time changed again. I like the mystery idea of not knowing who was murdered and wish I could keep going with the show. But it has a major flaw that was just too much.

I really like that show (so far/up to episode 9) and it is really creative. You really have to endure episode one, because it's really confusing with the introduction of all the people and sometimes you don't know who is who and what their relations are/were. Maybe that's just a "me problem".

Episode two is gradually elevating that series.

It's basically - if you can compare those - "Desperate Housewives" and "Why Women Kill". If you loved those series then this one is for you.

The characters are so over the top sometimes but it's part of the story. The story telling is also new: 6 months before and 6 months after. You get several glimpses into the future and switch back to the present. It's a good concept. Even how they visually announce that.
