    A pleasant and interesting mystery. Reasonably well written and acted. Production values are good. All in all we'd rate it a "worth watching if you like mysteries."

    Being I love a good mystery, this series is definitely one of my favorites. It's got lots of good content, is well acted, and keeps you interested until the end! I'd go for another season for sure!

    It’s a tightly plotted, handsomely presented, smartly acted, entirely enjoyable and structurally unusual piece.

    While at times the show-within-a-show can grow a bit tired, Magpie Murders is a very enjoyable murder mystery with enough revelations and twists to keep you guessing until the end.

    It sounds like a lot to keep track of, but that’s where Horowitz and Cattaneo shine. Clever transitions bridge the two worlds while linking Susan and Pünd, and period costumes help to clarify which world the story is following in each scene.
