Mystery Marathon: Tuesday’s Killer Picks on GREAT! Mystery
Dive into Tuesday’s lineup on GREAT! Mystery and discover a curated collection of gripping mysteries, uplifting news, and thrilling crime dramas that will keep you on the edge of your seat.
Picture Perfect Mysteries (08:10–09:06)
A clever blend of wedding drama and photo‑ops, this 2019 film starring Alexa PenaVega turns a groom’s murder into a visual puzzle. While it’s not the most complex whodunnit, the quick‑cut storytelling keeps you guessing.
I’d recommend it for a mid‑week break – it’s still entertaining, with a light touch of romance and a twist that surprises.
Good News on GREAT! (09:06–09:11)
A quick 5‑minute roundup that flips the mood to positive. It’s a gentle palate cleanser before the next thriller.
Still a reliable pick if you need a brief lift in your evening.
Martha’s Vineyard: Riddled With… (10:10–11:08)
A 2020 thriller that weaves a missing heirloom into a detective’s hunt. Jesse Metcalfe delivers a solid performance, but the plot twists feel a bit predictable.
One of the better options on Tuesday, though it may not hold your attention for the whole hour.
Unforgettable (12:05–13:00)
Season 3’s fifth episode dives into a party boat disaster. The mix of celebrity chef, coast guard, and explosives creates a layered narrative.
It holds up well as a procedural, but it can feel a bit formulaic for those craving originality.
In Plain Sight (13:00–14:00)
Marshalls and Albuquerque’s bounty hunt collide in this hour‑long episode. The pacing is solid, and the father‑son dynamic adds depth.
A solid pick for fans of crime drama, it still offers a reliable storyline.
Castle (14:00–15:00)
A light‑hearted procedural with a dash of romance. The episode’s “Eye Of The Beholder” plot keeps the characters in a playful rivalry.
Still entertaining for viewers who enjoy a mix of mystery and humor.
Diagnosis Murder (15:00–16:00)
Dr. Sloan tackles a murder involving a psychiatrist’s wife. The episode stays true to the show’s long‑running blend of medical and mystery.
A reliable pick for classic procedural fans, though it may feel dated for younger viewers.
Murder, She Wrote (17:00–19:00)
Two consecutive episodes bring the beloved mystery to life again. The plots revolve around a sheriff’s family drama and a student suspect.
Good for fans of nostalgic mystery; it holds up well despite the age.
Murder, She Baked (22:00–23:55)
A festive whodunnit that mixes baking with mystery. The episode’s holiday setting adds a quirky charm.
Hold up well during the season, offering a lighthearted twist.
Lost Letter Mysteries (23:55–01:50)
A cosy mystery featuring postal detectives. The plot revolves around a man’s devastating news and the potential for drastic actions.
An engaging pick for those who enjoy character‑driven mystery.
Second Chances (01:50–03:20)
A thriller that follows a reporter as she tries to stop a serial killer. The tension rises steadily, making it a solid late‑night option.
Still a reliable thriller, though the pacing may be slow for some.
Deadliest Switch (03:20–04:50)
A thriller about a birth‑switch crisis. The drama escalates as one mother refuses to relinquish what she claims as her own.
A decent pick for late‑night crime drama, holding up well.
Good News on GREAT! Extra (04:50–05:00)
A final 10‑minute positive wrap‑up before the final teleshopping hour.
A quiet, reliable end to the evening’s lineup.
Teleshopping (05:00–07:00)
Three consecutive 30‑minute blocks of teleshopping. Not a highlight for mystery fans, but a functional filler.
Still a reliable filler, but holds up poorly for those seeking content.
Bottom line: Tuesday’s schedule offers a balanced mix of lighthearted news, sharp mysteries, and classic crime dramas that keep the channel alive throughout the night. Whether you’re in for a quick lift or a full‑hour thriller, there’s something to satisfy every taste.
