Aurora Teagarden Mystery: A Bone to Pick Storyline

Having inherited a large estate from nasty crone Jane Engles, retired spinster librarian and fellow member of the now-defunct Real Murders Club, single Lawrenceton librarian Aurora ‘Roe’ Teagarden is mystified by the mere acquaintance’s gift of money, jewelry and a two bedroom house by recent testament change. After chasing a masked intruder, she finds a skull hidden in the couch. Did the old lady kill someone and/or leave Aurora to solve the mystery or was she framed? Aurora must figure it all out before her ex-boyfriend Arthur, the police detective, and her new love interest Aubrey, the episcopal priest, figure out what she’s up to, or the clueless local cops, her ex-boyfriend, Robbery Detective Arthur Smith, and befriended Homicide Detective Lynn Liggett, arrest her for sabotaging a criminal case. After rightly guessing where the decapitated skeleton may be buried, all missing person cases in the neighborhood constitute plausible victims, rendering many neighbors at least temporary suspects, causing tension with family, professional relations and friends, to be eliminated one by one.—KGF Vissers

Aurora Teagarden Mystery: A Bone to Pick Movie Reviews

A dud…period

Okay I am well aware that I am not the demographic for this film. I also had very meagre expectations given it is a Hallmark film, stars Candace Cameron-Bure, and was being turned into a Hallmark series. Those things in and of itself don’t make this a bad film. Hallmark can be entertaining in a very cheesy way. I watched this with my 70+ year old mother because I knew it would be squeaky clean and perhaps fun. Clean yes but this was the furthest thing from fun. The film had no chemistry anywhere. It was plainly dull, made no sense and by the time the “mystery” was unravelling, I literally didn’t care. I couldn’t even tell you the ending now because it was completely and utterly forgettable. It is quite simply a miracle that this sort of D-Movie making gets made and watched and serialized. Its silly. I’m desperately trying to find some good points because I am all for clean movies that are for certain demographics but there just wasn’t anything enjoyable about this at all. I’m actually amazing that this came from a series written by Charlaine Harris, while I’ve never read anything from her, this doesn’t seem to fit the style.

I like Candace Cameron-Bure, I’m a HUGE Full House fan but I’ve never really seen her in much else. She does have some chemistry but this role is so silly and simple that she can’t seem to really give it enough to make it captivating. The best thing I can say is that she is the highlight of this cast because literally everyone else is completely and utterly forgettable. The most talented name in the group is Marilu Henner and she is completely underused as Cameron-Bure’s mother. Another reviewer said that they were setting up these characters for future instalments but I didn’t see any set up here. This was a film made with the absolute bare minimum in everything. They squeaked by and squeaked it out to make a little money which is Hallmark’s thing really.

Martin Wood is far from a newcomer in the director and producer’s chair. He has been working on Television for ages and has done a lot of Science Fiction which begs the question why he took this on? And more-so it begs the question as to why this wasn’t made with far more care than it was. I think the problem is I’m over-analyzing a Hallmark production. I’ve only seen a few but they all have the exact same earmarks and are made for a list of reasons that don’t translate to great movies. I certainly won’t be tuning in to any future instalments of this series. I’ll wait for Fuller House for my dose of Candace Cameron-Bure. 3/10

My Wife And I Are Hooked

I am not a fan of chick flicks. My wife is not a fan of the more gruesome, bloody crime and mystery flicks. So, we have enjoyed finding different movies and shows that are something in-between, especially those that are a series like Aurora Teagarden Mystery. We’ve seen every Columbo, Matlock and a few others, and were looking for something along those lines.

We found it.

I do not write this as a “fan” of Candace Cameron Bure’s other works. As a matter of fact, I had very low expectations. Not because she is not a good actress. But because I just haven’t enjoyed the sitcoms she’s been in and haven’t enjoyed the other movies I’ve seen her in. Now, I’m a FAN. I just hope she keeps doing these type of films.

And what a nice surprise to see Marilu Henner, again. I was a big fan of her work on Taxi. And the supporting actors are a pretty solid crew.

What I don’t understand is why some reviewers claim that this show is “predictable”. I believe we could gather them all up in a room and at 15 minute intervals, take their predictions! What a good time that would be, because… I believe they would get a lot of their predictions WRONG and disprove their own claims.

And I can only speak for my wife and I at this point, but we enjoyed this first installment (that I understand is based on the second book) and do NOT find it predictable.

But you ARE watching a Hallmark movie. If you come expecting Aurora to be Laura Croft or Wonder Woman (or have that kind of budget), you are in for a disappointment.

On the other hand, if you turn on, “A Bone To Pick,” without a bone to pick and expect something along the lines of Murder She Wrote or Diagnosis Murder? You’re gonna enjoy this.

Mystery Lite

I’ve noticed an influx of so called “Cozy Mysteries” in print, being churned out by the dozens. They all have one thing in common….they all work by a formula and don’t need much imagination to figure things out.

I’ve read that this one is based on such a book series.

While the actresses and actors are decent enough and somewhat funny, it’s way too predictable. Heroine gets involved in a mystery (usually a murder), and seems to have a knack to getting herself into trouble, usually with the real killer and the law. While traipsing thru the evidence, which the police obviously overlook, she gets the bad guy. End of story.

The scenery is gorgeous, the actors are all attractive but the movie lacks depth. It also lacks a real identity. Since this is on the Hallmark Channel, I don’t expect great drama, but they have made better mysteries based on books.

I love mysteries and read them all the time. I also watch them. This one is just too lightweight for me. Someone wrote that there’s just too much “cute” in this movie. I have to agree. It’s also annoying that the heroine, Aurora, doesn’t give a second thought that this was a real person who was murdered. And the skull of a real person she carries around.
