You’re Killing Me
It’s somewhat disconcerting to see Brooke Shields, now 60, to be seen as something of an old fogie, but she carries it off with good humor in a light mystery series set in a Hallmark-adjacent New England seaport. Sheilds stars as celebrated mystery-romance novelist Allison “Allie” Chandler, the toast of quaint Founders Cove. Like Murder, She Wrote‘s Jessica Fletcher, Allie has an uncanny knack for attracting dead bodies, and when a close friend is fatally thrown from a window during a local mystery convention, she gets to work. But hot on her heels, and often one step ahead of her, is brash young true-crime podcaster Andi Walker (Amalia Williamson), who scoffs at Allie’s brand of “escapist boomer fiction,” though in time-honored tradition, they soon form a grudging partnership. Tom Cavanagh (Ed, The Flash) co-stars as Jack Kerrigan, a newly installed chief detective fresh from Baltimore who initially seems more of a bystander as Allie and Andi smoke out a killer.
