Return to Paradise: Season 1 coming to Britbox



At last the U.S. is getting Return to Paradise, another Death in Paradise spin-off. We've all been asking for it,  and it will finally air here on September 2 on Britbox with 6 episodes in the season. I haven't seen it yet, but I'm really looking forward to this British/Australian production. I'll post my opinion after watching a few episodes. Oh...there will be 6 episodes. Season 2 is already filming.

Return to Paradise is set in a seaside town in Australia. In the series, Detective Inspector Mackenzie Clarke (Anna Samson) reluctantly returns to her Australian home town (trope) after leaving London under a cloud of suspicion (trope #2). And trope #3: Anna is socially awkward. O.k. no big surprise on these fronts, but I watch a lot of mystery series, so I'm not surprised -- or put-off. I love Death in Paradise, so I think I'll enjoy this!

So many great mystery shows coming in September! Exciting times!
