Three Pines (2022)
I always prefer books
I've read most of the Three Pines books, some of them more than once. I've enjoyed reading them all. When I read I make my own pictures in my mind, as I would think most avid readers do. I have the village of Three Pines pictured very much differently than that in the TV show. Mine is much more rustic and the bistro is totally not like what we see on the show. There's not as much development of the characters like the books have but maybe with time we'll see more of that. I do like Molina as Ganache. I think he is perfect. I hope anyone who hasn't read the books would do so. If you like mysteries, you will probably love Three Pines.
Where the Heart Is (1997)
I'm so glad I found this one!
I was running out of good shows to watch during this quarintine of 2020 and stumbled on this on Amazon. I have watched and liked several British shows and to me this is probably my favorite. This is not a soap opera as we think of them in the US. It's a very good series about people who seem real and worth getting to know.
I really enjoy the stories and the characters. The only complaint I have is that the same actors don't play the characters for the whole series. It's disappointing not to see the same people that were the main characters in the first year after you've watched it for awhile. In the case of some, it's just like they ":disappear" and then maybe someone else plays the character, or not.
All in all though, I'd say it's a very good show and worth the time to watch.
