Title: Not my cup of tea
Product review: Thought that I would enjoy this period piece, but it was too vulgar for my taste. I love mysteries enough that I watched the whole thing. It reminded me of a play since I didn't think that most of the acting was very good as compared to Downton Abbey or Our Mutual Friend. I also figured out the ending about halfway through. The part that disturbed me the most was when the supposed murderess ridiculed the man of God and God himself. How rude. If she would be someone who believed in God and in morals, she wouldn't have been in the situation in the first place. I did enjoy the acting of the stepson and wonder what else he acted in. Didn't quite enjoy the part of the ending since people took the law into their own hands. Isn't that what got everyone into the predicament in the first place...everybody just doing whatever they felt like with no qualms about what's right and honorable? I decided that I enjoy refined Victorian mysteries, not amoral, vulgar characters.
