Mistletoe Murders
60Or leave it.Not an average of critics. Eight questions, one house.
A cozy murder, which is a contradiction. The town and the work are real. The corpses are the hobby.
The glance
Piety is the thin one.
This phone
Set for a grown person, just me. Change the ages.
After the credits
Can conscience actually stop someone, or is reverence only in the shot so it can be mocked?
Sarah Drew plays a woman who already knows how to run a shop and has to learn, again, how to tell the truth about a body. Sam Wilner is the detective who would like the town to stay simple. The show is Hallmark's idea of a murder: the lights stay up, the blood stays off the lens, and the pleasure is guessing.
Fine for a thirteen-year-old beside you. Say out loud that a dead neighbor is not a game you play because the street looks like a card. One episode will tell you if your house likes the puzzle or the corpse.

The eight
Industry
7/10
A shop that stays open, a detective who treats the case as a job.
Household
6/10
A small town of neighbors. The romance is adult and slow.
Piety
4/10
Christmas is the wallpaper. Conscience shows up as who gets buried.
Courage
6/10
She walks toward the thing the town would rather call an accident.
Republic
6/10
The unit is a town, not a brand.
Temperance
7/10
TV-PG. The fright is a puzzle, not a feast.
Truth
7/10
Someone is dead and the show wants the true name of it.
Stewardship
5/10
A shop is a thing you hand on. A murder-as-pastime is not.
