Miss Fisher’s Murder Mysteries Television Show

July 23, 2013

Miss Fisher's Murder Mysteries 1 The Miss Fisher’s Murder Mysteries television show is a familiar TV mystery series that might not be all that familiar. Most Cozy Mystery readers of this site are very familiar with Kerry Greenwood‘s Phryne Fisher Mysteries. Some of you read the series while others have probably seen it recommended (several times) by other Cozy Mystery readers in the monthly recommendation posts.

It wasn’t until very recently that I heard of this very clever television mystery series. Several Cozy Mystery readers sent me letters telling me about their enjoyment of the show. (Thank you!)

My husband and I have recently started watching the Miss Fisher’s Murder Mysteries and we are both enjoying the shows a lot. They are based on Kerry Greenwood’s wildly popular Phryne Fisher mysteries. Phryne is a 1920s flapper (dictionary.reference.com defines flapper as  “a young woman, especially one who, during the 1920s, behaved and dressed in a boldly unconventional manner.”)

Phryne, although not born into money, is now rich enough to be able to afford the many luxuries that her bank account can buy. She is able to employ as many people as she wants, live as luxuriously as she deems necessary, and buy whatever trinkets (like airplanes!) she chooses. She is quite wealthy!

This Australian period-piece television mystery series stars Essie Davis, who plays the Phryne lead to perfection. She is brazenly upfront with her very modern 1920s views. Phryne has a deliciously wicked twinkle in her eyes.

The always-exasperated Detective Jack Robinson is played beautifully by Nathan Page. The attraction between Jack and Phryne is palpable. However, not being a girl who sits around waiting for the married Jack, Phryne is not adverse to quick romances. (Not to worry >>> nothing graphic!)

When I was doing my research for this entry, I found out that Kerry Greenwood was actually involved with this TV series as writer for all thirteen episodes of the 2012 productions. So even though the (+/-) 55 minute episodes do a lot of abridging, it’s nice that Greenwood was involved with the condensed versions of her mystery books.

We have only watched the first several delightful episodes of the Miss Fisher’s Murder Mysteries, but from these I can say that the costumes are  absolutely wonderful. Phryne wears only the most beautiful fashions. As for the sets, they are full of  fringe, tassels, velveteen, crystal, satin, period furniture, and beautiful wall papers.

I highly recommend Miss Fisher’s Murder Mysteries. What’s not to like about a TV mystery series that has a butler named Mr. Butler?

Upcoming Television Mystery Movies for July 2013

July 2, 2013

Let’s take a look and see what old, black and white mystery movies will be airing this month. I am an avid fan of old movies, and the TCM channel seems to be the network that I find most of them playing.

Here is the list of the upcoming television mystery movies that I have been able to find which will air on the Turner Classic Movie channel (TCM). (I go through my TCM Now Playing guide to find them.)

As usual, I must tell you that I have not seen all of the movies on this list, so I can’t vouch for all of them. Also, since I live in the Central time zone, it’s just easier for me to list them in that time frame. If you know of any other mystery movies that are going to be aired on television during July 2013, please post a comment.

Upcoming Television Mystery Movies for June 2013

June 1, 2013

As some of you know, I am a fan of old movies. Most of them are in black and white, although some of them are in color – depending on the year the movie was made. Several people have asked me to continue posting the upcoming mystery movies that will be appearing on television each month. That said, here is the list of the upcoming television mystery movies that I have been able to find which will air on the Turner Classic Movie channel (TCM). (I go through my TCM Now Playing guide to find them.)

I have actually seen some of the movies on this list, but not all. I’m going to be listing these movies in Central time zone. If you know of any other mystery movies that are going to be aired on television during June 2013, please post a comment.
