Agatha Christie's Seven Dials

What viewers say

Viewers who enjoyed this short period adaptation praise the easy-to-watch, good-looking mystery, the lead performance, the cast and a mix of suspense and humor, and a number would like another season. Opinion is divided. Critics were warmer than audiences, and unhappy viewers call the plot predictable and unoriginal, the direction and some acting weak, and the story far from the novel. Others find it slow and forgettable, and one complaint is that the heroine's connections give her too-easy access to clues. Expect shootings, poisonings and some gory detail, so it is best for older teens and adults.

Best for: Viewers who want a quick, glossy, light-hearted Christie-style mystery and aren't strict about fidelity to the book.
