    Aurora Teagarden Mysteries: Haunted by Murder7.1

    If you have ever fallen down an Aurora Teagarden rabbit hole, Lexa Doig was right there beside you the whole way. All 16 of her Hallmark films, made between 2015 and 2022, sit in that same cozy mystery world, and she shares every one of them with Candace Cameron Bure, Marilu Henner, and Peter Benson. That is about as tight an ensemble as Hallmark builds. She does not top the bill, but she is part of the furniture that makes the small towns feel real, where the murders are tidy and the suspects are neighbors. Her strongest run lands at 7.1, including A Game of Cat and Mouse from 2019 and Haunted by Murder from 2022. Nothing here winks at the camera. It is straight, dependable comfort viewing, and she helps it go down easy.
