Dead Over Diamonds

6/10 - clever mystery is a nice follow up in the HMM series

The real mystery here is not who killed who, or who stole what. The mystery is how anyone in their right mind would cast Carlos in a movie. He is absolutely void of talent.

Photographer Allie and Detective Sam's investigation into a priceless stolen necklace leads to danger and an unexpected death.

A simple plotted mystery featuring real-life married couple Carlos and Alexa who play a cop and photographer in a small town. Carlos is a new guy, a cop, from NYC trying to adjust to small town life, and obviously they have a "maybe or maybe not" romance. It's a u demanding yet safe mystery which is quite fun, especially with Alexa's sidekicks Noah, and Maya around. They make a great team. There's no murder, just a diamond theft. Erik Estrada from CHiPs fame stars as a lively character.

These two really can't act and combined with weak scripts this series is one of the worst in the Hallmark Mystery collection. I just watched the preview for the next episode and even the preview is painful to watch. I don't think I have ever made it through more than 20 minutes of one of these before pulling the plug.

Hallmark has a couple new promising mystery series. Wish they would crank out a few more of those instead of wasting resources on guaranteed duds.

Hallmaek....Stop posting those AGGRIVATING, IRRITATING AWFUL promos on the bottom of our screens throughout the movies!!! 20% of the screen is taken up with these 2 logos on every movie. Total disrespect to your viewers.
