Grosse Pointe Garden Society

I absolutely love this show. The actors are great and all the characters very likeable. My only complaint is I'm sick and tired of all the switching with the TWO WEEKS AGO...FOUR DAYS AGO.... etc. It is obnoxious and makes it difficult to have a flowing story line. I'm sure hoping it will have a second season because I look forward to it each week.

I agree with a previous reviewer this is campy like desperate housewives and also is a "Temu" version of HTGAWM. The back and forth between present day and 6 months is the only thing making it interesting - and yet confusing at the same time. I lost interest mid-way through episode two and had to force myself to watch to the end. Aja Naomi King is giving Emmy worthy performance but the Other characters are just meh. Alice's relationship is unbelievable. And we are living with greedy rich people taking over the country in real life - I don't want to also watch it for entertainment value on my screen.

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 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.

This is what I call a "laundry folding show." Put it on, turn off your brain, and just enjoy yourself while you fold your laundry on the coffee table. That's this to a tee. Very light and fun. If this were on Netflix, it'd be a big hit. It reminded me of No Good Deed on Netflix.

My one complaint is that the constant, and I mean constant, cutting back and forth between the two timelines is a bit overdone and distracting. I wish there was less of that because you can lose track of the character beats depending on the timeline. But that aside, it's great. Melissa Fumero is the MVP. Great to see her play a completely different character form her role on Brooklyn 911.
