Sydney H @AZSydney1960 Oct 13, 2026 I have watched the entire first season of murder in a small town and the character of Cassandra is insufferable. They need to replace her character or remove her character completely. The character of the sheriff or the police chief is almost like a rip from the psych character. The way the chief of police looks at a crime scene is almost like the character in the TV show psych. The only character I did like in this season was the character of Sid. In season two of the show is a bit better. I’m just gonna power through it and see how this goes. See more Elizabeth M @RT05802470 Oct 6, 2026 This show is terrible. It felt like a Hallmark movie. Bad acting, poor plotline characters are forgettable. How did they even make a second season?! See more Lulu J @CallMeLulu Sep 30, 2026 Rossif Sutherland plays a police chief with a totally unconvincing vibe--rumpled, insecure, apologetic, overwhelmed, uncertain, and awkward, like someone with early dementia or who's perpetually stoned--a weird beta-male archetype who seems like he can barely function under pressure. Apparently the showrunners were aiming for the "gentler modern male." And the female protagonist, instead of being like any librarian I've ever encountered (note: I'm a librarian), seems like she's never picked up a book in her life, utterly lacking in empathy, warmth, or insight--instead seething with sharp-edged, hyper-defended hostility that the showrunners apparently characterizing "strong, independent woman," but comes across as deeply unpleasant and exhausting. The chief is supposedly principled and by the book--but ends up making outrageous illegal compromises--and then, of course, apologizing to the librarian for "being so rigid and unyielding." Plus tons of soap opera froth and fake friction. Ugh! See more S T @SMgolf Sep 30, 2026 Too many DEI inserts with weirdos hairdos. See more Traci G @TraciMG Sep 29, 2026 I’m really enjoying this show. I’m a Law & Order fan soooooo there’s that. I’ve seen negative reviews on here but for me,,, so far so good. 👍🏼 See more Juan Q @RT06298660 Sep 14, 2026 Murder in a Small Town struggles to maintain suspense due to a flat chemistry between the leads and a lack of emotional weight in their interactions. This emotional disconnect results in a slow-paced and predictable procedural that fails to deliver a gripping crime drama. You can read the full critique at the original review source.
