This drama series, set in stylish 1920s Toronto, follows the female-only agency Drake Private Detectives, led by the eponymous Frankie Drake and her partner Trudy Clarke. Incorporating a brand of justice that doesn't always follow the law, Frankie and Trudy investigate mysteries and crimes that either the police refuse to take on, or that their clients cannot take to the police at all. Against a backdrop of social change, radical politics and jazz music, the series is immersed in both the real Toronto of the 1920s and the world of mystery and suspense conjured by creators Carol Hay and Michelle Ricci.

4/5
Frankie Drake Mysteries may not have started out -- or even intended to ever become -- such a pure ensemble piece, but there's no denying that this show hums when its four female leads are together. Go to Full Review

01/28/2021 I tried to support this show - women leads, good story lines (I hoped), and a somewhat interesting idea. But the star is just unfortunately weak, over-playing being a 'tough gal' and the black co-star deserves much more than what she gets. The two secondary characters are OK, although again the would-be coroner over-plays her 'been-around-the-block' character. Worst of all is the wildly out-of-period look -- from very low-budget first season to now a blond in a 1960s pantsuit???? This isn't time travel, it's supposed to be 'period.'
