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.)

I know that I am sounding like a television commercial lately… but just want to remind those of you who are addicted (as I am!) to The Closer… It's finally back.

Hercule Poirot, aka David Suchet on the Orient Express

Danna - cozy mystery list — Wed, 07 Jul 2010 10:24:59 +0000

It won't be Murder on the Orient Express, but it will be David Suchet on the Orient Express.

Tonight, on your local PBS station (unless they are doing a special funding drive) David Suchet will be taking us on a tour of the Orient Express. And, of course, all of you know that David Suchet is the man behind the man with the little gray cells: the famous Belgian detective, Hercule Poirot.

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.

Sundays….. May 2, 9, 16 All NEW episodes!

Debbie Macomber's Mrs. Miracle… Not a Mystery Book, but Definitely a Holiday Movie

Danna - cozy mystery list — Wed, 02 Dec 2009 10:57:47 +0000

OK, OK! I know that Debbie Macomber isn't a mystery book author. But I also know that there are several people who read the Cozy Mystery Site who are avid Debbie Macomber fans. So for those of you Debbie Macomber fans>>> I want to tell you about the Debbie Macomber's Mrs. Miracle movie, which the Hallmark network will be showing.

The Good Wife… One of My (New) Favorite Shows

Danna - cozy mystery list — Thu, 22 Oct 2009 11:10:47 +0000

I just watched a new show that I am following: The Good Wife. >>> Love it!

As if The Good Wife's regular cast isn't (to use the word from the title) "Good" enough!!! They brought in one of my very favorite actresses this past week: Martha Plimpton. I have always thought that she would have been the absolutely best actress to portray Stephanie Plum, the main sleuthing character of the wildly successful Janet Evanovich mystery book series.

It's At the Movies Again!

Danna - cozy mystery list — Mon, 28 Sep 2009 10:48:05 +0000

I have been watching At the Movies for years. (Yep… Years ago, when it aired on PBS!) I started watching it when Gene Siskel and Roger Ebert reviewed the current movies. Their discussions never ceased to entertain my husband and me. We were saddened by Gene Siskel's death. I always got the feeling that Siskel and Ebert respected and liked one another, even though they rarely agreed on a movie.

YIKES!!! Isn't Agatha Christie COZY?!?!?

Danna - cozy mystery list — Sun, 26 Jul 2009 12:08:48 +0000

Good grief! Boy did I steer you all wrong… I posted two entries about the new PBS Agatha Christie season… along with the Ellen Byerrum shows, and YIKES!!! (The "YIKES!!!" should tell you enough if you don't want to go on reading… But, I am so "hot-under-the-collar" right now, that I HAVE to go on writing…)

A Truly Terrific TNT Channel Show: The Closer …

Danna - cozy mystery list — Thu, 16 Jul 2009 11:49:03 +0000

I have recently mentioned (several times!) that my daughter is home for the summer. The two of us watch a television show together every morning… a "chick flick" type of show that we have not introduced to either my husband or son. Our favorite show is TNT's… The Closer.
