Spencer Sisters

It was good. I can't believe they cancelled it really did have great potential. The networks are playing with us. Each time we like something it's cancelled, The Gourmet Detective, Crossword Mysteries, Curious Caterer, Mystery 101, shall I go on? MatchMaker Mysteries and Picture Perfect were not even given a chance, not to mention Morning Show Mysteries! So many great shows and they cancel them. I thought with streaming competition we could have more flexibility in the stats these Executives seem to say they use when really they use a dartboard and their personal interests! Let's give us a chance and give the shows more of a chance!!!

I really liked how this series took off. There is a real odd couple quality to Victoria and Darby, that is quite refreshing.

The mysteries are often easy to solve, given the facts surface with each clue.

With each episode, there is a growing respect from Darby for her mother and the people surrounding them. The more she has been with Victoria, the more it seems their bond deepens. By the end of the season, we see how much Darby does care for Victoria.

We should probably get to know more about the supporting cast. I am just not sure how it should be handled. The character dynamics seems to be OK for now.

I look forward to what the next season may bring.

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.

All Darby Spencer (Stacey Farber) wants to do is to follow her late father's footsteps and be a good police detective. She quits the police force in frustration after an undeserved reprimand. She breaks up with her cheating boyfriend and moves out. She visits her famous mystery writer mother Victoria Spencer (Lea Thompson). She's not a happy camper. There are abandonment issues. When a friend gets falsely accused, the two women join forces to solve the case. They form the Spencer Sisters Detective Agency solving various cases.

Stacey Farber and Lea Thompson are both great fun actresses. There is good chemistry between them. The rest of this Canadian show is a bit janky. The overall production is not at a good level. Still, these two leads give it the old college try and comes up with some fun. It lasted for only one season.

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.
