Miss Fisher’s Murder Mysteries Season 3

DVD Wholesale Quick Overview:

The delectable – and somewhat dangerous – Phryne Fisher is back for another series of adventures in the Roaring Twenties and it’s a season of surprises that should delight viewers of this most original detective program from Down Under.
Miss Fisher and her companion Dot, in addition to solving crimes on a Royal Australian Air Force base and other unusual locales, spend much of this season dealing with some highly personal issues as well. Phryne and her police counterpart, Inspector Jack Robinson, are growing closer and closer on a personal level while Dot’s engagement to Constable Hugh Collins seems less likely to result in marriage for reasons that have little to do with love. These personal issues add a bit of tension to the season’s story lines that hasn’t been as evident in the previous two. Some people will not like that, however, I must say that I did because it makes both characters more “human” and, therefore, more accessible.The mysteries themselves are as intriguing as ever ranging from the murder of an RAAF pilot to the killing of three young street kids.- Mike Billington3

Essie Davis sparkles like diamonds in the Miss Fisher Mystery series! The first two seasonss are whimsical, fun, and upbeat. In this third season, Miss Fisher begins to mellow into a full on cozy detective and the tone is a little more serious and the plots a little more complex. The core cast is just fantastic and I certainly hope this series will take flight and a place alongside Poirot and Miss Marple in the classics of cozy mystery. Nathan Page plays detective Jack Robinson who, on his own, is the chief police detective for the district. However, his most endearing quality is how he entertains Miss Fisher’s efforts and together they solve the mysteries. This series is funny (Jack and Hugh Collins in the police car late at night watching the legs of Miss Fisher disappear through an upstairs window,) and engrossing. The stories are well written and superbly acted. We love this series and hope to collect many more DVD’s!-Evening Iris

I absolutely adore this series. Nathan Page is just amazing and all the characters are so well crafted. I don’t think I’ve laughed out loud so many times watching a mystery! Season 2 is probably my favorite. Season 3 however, while I’m really glad it was made seems to be falling short on a number of accounts. It became obvious a couple episodes in that they’d had money trouble. Specific opening shots from previous seasons were re-used (three times in one case). Fryne’s wardrobe also took a hit, with her re-wearing tops multiple times (never happened in previous seasons), or that basic muslin bucket hat and coat combo worn in season 2 being extremely overly used in season 3 (my least favorite outfit of hers). Essie’s makeup was less en pointe, Jack re wore the same tie in many episodes. Misc visual things your mind picks up but you may not put your finger on. I’m hoping they get the green light and the $$$ for a season 4, but I can see how they pushed to wrap up 3 as best as they were able with what they had. Because of Davis’ age anything more than a couple year gap will probably de facto end the series, but I’m still going to hold out hope they find a angel investor. It truly is a remarkable show and all the actors are incredibly talented!-Quilts2theHilt
