Marple (2004)
Love most of the episodes although they get a little convoluted
I would score it higher, but our viewing revolves in great part with close captions.
We are quite enjoying the series but I cringe over and over at how bad the close captions are. I am watching with someone who is hard of hearing and has to mostly read the script. Last night they were talking of furniture in the French Louis XV style. It is always read as Louis the fifteenth or often in French Quinze (pronounced cans - and that is exactly what the close caption said in the style of Louis cans - I had to explain that one to my mom!) Then a few moments later, Miss Marple talked about the problem of yarn balls vs skeins, except the close caption said yarn scans. So confusing for the reader. There are mistakes and horrible scripting throughout almost every episode.
