Darby And Joan works because of Bryan Brown and Greta Scacchi. The mysteries themselves are “meh,” but they don’t have to be strong because the show’s stars work so well together. Go to Full Review

bob c Mar 19 Low grade Aussie from ABC world See more Rob M Mar 16 Watched about 15 minutes and had to turn it off. It was embarrassingly bad. The acting was below amateur level, the make-up and general production quality appalling. One scene Brown is confronted by a woman with a gun... So bad it was funny. She has enough lipstick to cover her entire face and then pops up Sigrid looking like she'd spilt white paint over herself, again with ghastly eye shadow and too much lippy...it looked and sounded like these once great actors wished they were anywhere else but on the set of this absolute pig of a thing... Wooden and lifeless. See more Doris G 01/06/2025 The gorgeous scenery alone is enough to make this show a worthwhile watch. Lots of chemistry between the leads. Not so much mystery more of an old fashioned "whodunnit" in the vein of "Murder She Wtote". Pretty tame , no gore , more teasing than sex. Still an enjoyable way to spend an hour or so.
