The two part pilot was good so I was eager to watch.

But as the series progresses the tensions between the characters is silly and over dramatic.

The lead is very likable but her glamour hair closeups are getting old.

The mother a daughter fight and then make up with great regularity and often there is no real reason for either things to have happened.

As others have said the location is very pretty but well... big deal.

Walter needs to start watching these programs before recommending them. This is the third stinker in a row he has suggested. Two of them were French so that might have something to do with it.

I love the English detective shows, but the other European countries have great shows as well. The detective show is quite an international art form.

This one is from Poland and is all kinds of quirky and surprising. I've never been to Poland but it can't be as dark and "Soviet Era" looking as this show. No matter though the characters are "warm" despite the "cold" art direction.

Absolutely worth a watch.

After eating in many Mexican restaurants all my life, I'd often thought - "This can't be what they eat in Mexico" It's not, but Pati has given me the real scoop on what this wonderful cuisine is all about.

I want to try everything she shows.

And what a fine, graceful host she is.

I love it when someone wants to explain their culture and cuisine to me.
