Haunted Harmony Mysteries: Buried at C offers another mystery for music teacher turned amateur sleuth Gethsemane Brown (Tamera Mowry-Housley) to solve. Of course she’s got an unfair advantge with the help of her ghostly pal Eamon (Risteard Cooper), who can witness and overhear things she cannot, and being able to talk directly to the first murder victim in a sea captain (Gerry O’Brien) killed at sea.

Watson – Back from the Dead

Despite the rather huge twist at the end of the series premiere, “Back From the Dead” turns out to be a rather standard episode of Watson with the clinic working on an unusual case that might involve plague buried since before the Ice Age. The difference here is the story is told through flashbacks, by Watson (Morris Chestnut) to Sherlock Holmes (Robert Carlyle).

Holmes is alive and well in the Watson universe, but likely only available for sweeps.

Along with unexpectedly bringing back Flaco Navarro (Scotty Tovar) who has a dangerous deal for Lala, the episode is also built around Gibbs‘ (Austin Stowell) towards Franks (Kyle Schmid) for not allowing him to conduct an interrogation and eventually deciding to take matters into his own hands.

The death of a popstar (MacKenzie Porter) staying at one of Phyllis’ (Fiona Vroom) rental properties provides the murder of the week for Karl (Rossif Sutherland) to solve while Cassandra (Kristin Kreuk) attempts to comfort her stressed out best-friend who appears to be on the path to a nervous breakdown. Given both have their hands full, we don’t see much of the couple together other than a quick check-in here and there as he heads out to the crime scene and she to a town council meeting.
