Detective Lewis : Counter Culture Blues – PBS NEW Masterpiece Mystery! (Season 3)

Danna - cozy mystery list — Sat, 28 Aug 2010 11:10:25 +0000

Masterpiece Mystery! will start airing Season 3 of Inspector Lewis – beginning this Sunday (tomorrow) night on your local PBS station. For those of you who aren't familiar with Inspector Lewis, he used to be Inspector Morse's side-kick. The Inspector Lewis 90-minute episodes are inspired by Colin Dexter's Inspector Morse mystery books. Counter Culture Blues is a 2008 ITV production. (This is its first airing in the USA.)

Hercule Poirot : Appointment with Death – Agatha Christie – PBS NEW Masterpiece Mystery!

Danna - cozy mystery list — Sun, 25 Jul 2010 11:37:03 +0000

Here's another reminder… Appointment with Death, is the last of the first-run Agatha Christie episodes featuring David Suchet as Hercule Poirot this summer. After tonight's showing, PBS Masterpiece Mystery! will be airing "encore" presentations of one more Poirot episode, followed by three "encore" presentations of Inspector Lewis, with Kevin Whately… who is absolutely fabulous in this role! If you missed those three episodes, I urge you to watch them (or record them) this summer. There will be one first-run Inspector Lewis episode on August 29. Terrific! I'm looking forward to it already!

Here's another friendly reminder >>> Don't forget Hercule Poirot (aka David Suchet) is again going to grace us with his phenomenal little gray cells… tonight, July 18, 2010. Yes, it's that time again… Someone has done a very terrible "something"… and our favorite Belgian detective is going to tell us who, what, when, and why!

Hercule Poirot : Murder on the Orient Express – Agatha Christie – PBS NEW Masterpiece Mystery!

Danna - cozy mystery list — Sun, 11 Jul 2010 10:22:55 +0000

Do NOT forget that the latest version of Murder on the Orient Express will be airing tonight, July 11, 2010. Yes, it's true! The (British) actor David Suchet will deliver yet another perfect portrayal of the Belgian private investigator. (What Jeremy Brett is to Sherlock Holmes, David Suchet is to Hercule Poirot!)

Miss Marple: The Blue Geranium – Agatha Christie – PBS NEW Masterpiece Mystery!

Danna - cozy mystery list — Sun, 27 Jun 2010 10:12:40 +0000

OK, everyone! This is it! This is the last new Miss Marple Masterpiece Mystery! episode that PBS will be airing during their summer Mystery! bonanza, and it's on tonight!

The Blue Geranium is indeed a Miss Marple mystery… which is great to know! Actually, The Blue Geranium is an Agatha Christie short story … which is still great to know! (If you read my previous entry about The Secret of Chimneys, and the fact that it was an Superintendent Battles mystery novel, then you know what I mean!) I think it's always clever when they air mystery episodes which feature true depictions of the works by the highlighted authors, and not changes the producers think the public should see!

Danna - cozy mystery list — Sun, 20 Jun 2010 09:44:16 +0000

As the title of this Cozy Mystery site entry says: Miss Marple Series V is back – with a NEW 90 minute episode: The Secret of Chimneys. And, if you are ANYTHING like me, you are probably ready for your "dose" of Agatha Christie via the good folks of British television and PBS. (Thank goodness PBS still airs our favorite British mysteries… now that other channels like A & E no longer do so!)

Masterpiece Mystery! 2010 Summer Line Up…

Danna - cozy mystery list — Sun, 02 May 2010 18:28:37 +0000

I just went on the PBS television station website and found these dates for the following Masterpiece Mystery! television shows. Mark your calendars! BUT, I would also suggest that you search your local television stations to see if they are going to follow this schedule, or not. I know that in the past, my local San Antonio station has done their solicitation shows during the national line-up times.

Foyle's War

At Risk & The Front Win Garano's Movies, Not Kay Scarpetta, but Definitely Patricia Cornwell

Danna - cozy mystery list — Mon, 05 Apr 2010 14:02:44 +0000

So, while I was checking out when the next Jesse Stone movie would air, I came across some more information that should be interesting to all of us mystery book lovers. Patricia Cornwell's Win Garano Mystery Series will be featured on the Lifetime channel.

No Remorse & Blue Bloods (formerly slated as Reagan's Law) … Two Tom Selleck Police Procedurals on the Horizon

Danna - cozy mystery list — Thu, 01 Apr 2010 20:48:46 +0000

Great news for all of you Jesse Stone fans. Another Robert B. Parker movie will be broadcast some time soon. No Remorse will air on May 9, 2010. (Of course, since I don't work for the network, I am getting this date from the Google-ing I did this afternoon. If anyone else has another date, please let us know.) I have already programmed the movie's title, Tom Selleck, and Jesse Stone on my Replay machine… so I should know the exact date as soon as it pops up on one of my searches.

Pie In the Sky Mystery (Television) Series…

Here's another British mystery "dramedy" (drama & light comedy) series that might have been "undiscovered" by many people outside of the United Kingdom. Pie in the Sky stars Richard Griffiths as Henry Crabbe, the main character of the series.
