Bestselling detective novelist Allie Chandler is living the dream in this cozy mystery series. She’s rich, beautiful, beloved by fans of her Selena St. Cloud books, and has a sprawling, gray-shingled home overlooking the charming small town of Founder’s Cove, Maine. She’s also one of us — the divorced mom of a grown son, and a bit of a klutz who makes poor romantic choices and gets tongue-tied around her crush. Her latest book is Love is Murder, if that tells you anything.
Played by Gen X icon Brooke Shields, You’re Killing Me‘s Allie has more than a little in common with Jessica Fletcher (Angela Lansbury) of Murder She Wrote, the classic TV series about another bestselling novelist living in another charming small town in Maine with a surprisingly high murder rate. Unlike Jessica, Allie has a partner in solving crime. In the premiere of this six-episode series, she meets aspiring writer/podcaster Andi (Amalia Williamson), a Zillennial (that’s a young Millennial closer to Gen Z), but they aren’t exactly instant besties.
