I've been watching cheesy hallmark mysteries and movies for a long time. Most of the mystery series are not groundbreaking, but they're entertaining for what they are. It's never a great shock to find out who the killer is. Most of the time in these shows I have it figured out within the first 10 minutes.
I don't know if some of the other reviewers are aware that CCB left the network because of different "values" (insert eye roll). She's gone so they had to move on. I think a pre-quel was a nice way to reboot the series. Screen writers do it all the time and change up the characters. Frankly I found CCB's portrayal to be whiny and annoying and was tired of seeing her be the same person in almost everything on Hallmark for a decade.
It was nice to see some fresh faces and not Arthur's uptight detective wife from the future.
This was much what you would expect from hallmark. I would watch more if they continue.
