Curious Caterer: Grilling Season (2023)
Why the deviation from the books
I don't know why you adapt an author's book and then make so many changes? Can writers not come up with their own stories? The actress playing Goldy doesn't resemble the character in the book at all- I don't believe Tom had an ex wife (though I may be wrong on that), Marla and Goldy were both married to Richard who is no longer the abuser he was in the novels. Also as many have pointed out, Goldy had a son not a daughter- no need to change that- and where is Julian?! He not Marla assisted Goldy on her catering gigs. I watched until the discovery of the murder and then I was out. I won't be tuning in to any others in this series. Too many deviations from the books with none being improvements. Ugh.
Death in Paradise: Undercover and Out (2022)
Not the greatest
Miranda Priestly??? Really?? The writers couldn't come up with a more original name- Can you say The Devil Wears Prada?? This opening note was laughable and unfortunately set the tone for the rest of the episode. I don't understand the character of Florence at all anymore - she's in the series - she's out of the series - she's back in for a couple and then out.. Is this another case of an actor wanting to stretch their wings and then you never see them in anything else? I'm warming up to the new cast additions but how many stories of a murder on island can you do-shades of Midsommer Murders? Lol.
