Recipes for Love and Murder

I really enjoyed the storyline, writing, the location, characters and acting...even the music was great and offered something distinctly unique to this show. I want to learn more about the characters and I'm hopeful that there will be more seasons to come. Very charming show in spite of the fact that it's an intriguing murder mystery!

The photography is beautiful and I enjoyed the look of the scenes, like stage settings, with thoughtful color schemes...the setting in South Africa is also appreciated by this viewer as we rarely see shows depicting African countries.

Please continue with this creative and worthwhile series...I never write reviews so with luck, it will be received well!

This series is charming in many ways. Like other cozy mysteries there is a cast of characters, most of whom are enjoyable company, and some of whom have quirks that you may find annoying. Personally, I enjoyed all the characters and some I found very pleasant company. The location is another plus for the series. South Africa is certainly a different setting and one I'd like to see more often.

From the trailer I'd expected a new mystery with each episode but there is basically one case for the whole ten episodes. That was okay with me, especially as there is more than one mystery to be unraveled in that time. I do hope there's a second season in which we can get to know more about the main character, played by Maria Doyle Kennedy (excellent) and the other characters.

Acorn has the first 6 episodes, but there are 10 in the season. And it looks like they aired earlier this year. So will we be getting the rest?

I've given it 10/10 because I love what I've seen so far: Fun and intriguing mystery, quirky characters, entertaining script, and great performances. But I'm a lot disappointed that we don't have the other 4 episodes.

Maria Coyle Kennedy (Tannie Maria) reminds me a lot of American actress Mary McDonnell, who I also love. Kylie Fisher is brilliant asJessie, and Arno Grieff's Regardt is clueless, sweet, and adorable. I've fallen in love with those three characters.

My wife & I are hooked on murder mystery shows especially those based in Great Britain & the British Commonwealth. There are many that are so good and you hate it when the series ends. That's how we feel about 'Recipes for Love and Murder.' We are ready for much more. The characters are realistic with varying personalities & their own personal issues. But they meld so well. The mixes of humor, drama, mystery, and romance is perfect. Some of the humor is subtle and makes me laugh even more. Then there are the recipes & advice. Those elements set this apart from other mystery shows. We get hungry with every episode! We love the way Maria mixes the two to give the perfect blend for solving the solution to people's problems & sometimes assist with the mystery at hand! Not only are we ready for more of the series we're looking for the cooking book (wishing & hoping one might actuallybe published)!
