First a pet peeve. The reviewer, "westsidechi" keeps copying and posting the same vague negative review on each of the Aurora Teagarden movies. IMDB should delete his entries, since he clearly has no interest in the individual episodes that he is supposed to be reviewing.
For me, this was the least interesting episode thus far of the Aurora Teagarden mysteries.
The main problem was too much change in personnel. Lexa Doig's absence is probably the most serious MIA. The loss of Bruce Dawson, though, is also a serious loss of continuity. Yannick Bisson is in the episode, but this is his last appearance. Bisson's character is distracted by a kidnapped CIA partner, and he is uncharacteristically jealous. In a sense, Yannick Bisson's character is also MIA, in this episode.
Finally, for most of the past episodes, the town of Lawrenceton has been something of a "character" in the shows. With this episode, most of the action takes place on a movie set.
The actual murderer is not that much of a surprise. But the mysteries have never been the strong suit of the show. It has been the interaction and camaraderie between the regulars on the show. That has been disrupted with this new season opener. Hopefully the producers can get the show back on track.

The Last Scene
I have really liked all of the Aurora Tea garden movies except this one. This last one was missing the wonderful combination of Humor, Romance and Drama that all the other movies had. I am not sure if it was the missing characters, the writing but this move left much to be desired. I do love the Aurora Tea garden mystery's and I hope they keep making them. I just really want them to be like all the others except this last one.
Not the same
The movie was okay but not the same with John not there and Martin acting jealous. Plus why was Aurora living with her mom? Did she sell her house in the country? Don't remember hearing about that.
