Date: February 25th, 2018 8:21 PM Author: exhilarant roommate cr, some of the later ones are particularly bad. The best of the later ones, off the top of my head, were After The Funeral and Five Little Pigs. The Hollow, Sad Cypress, and Curtain were pretty good. Some were shit because they were shit books (Dead Man's Folly, The Clocks, Elephants Can Remember) and some were shit just because they butchered them (Death on the Nile, Murder on the Orient Express). the early seasons had a lighter air, and better sets.

Read Ten Little Niggers as a kid, and it was fun, but something about Poirot just does it for me. |

Date: December 3rd, 2025 1:12 PM Author: Beady-eyed pea-brained alpha I enjoyed Five Little Pigs, mainly because it mirrors my own family dynamics. There was an "Elsa Greer" in my family, and she triggered a cascade of awful events that damaged the family system. AFAIK, Christie drew inspiration from real people, so the pattern definitely repeats IRL. (http://www.autoadmit.com/thread.php?thread_id=3731617&forum_id=2.#49480102) |
