We’re definitely going to talk about The Mysteries of Laura Season 1 Episode 3, but first, we need to take a selfie. Or not, since Laura might yell at us in the street.
Isn’t Debra Messing great? It’s fun having her back on our screens.
Slowly, we’re learning who Laura was before she became a police officer, making the mysteries of Laura less and less while as we watch her current life unfold on the screen. She once was an outsider who found comfort among other outsiders.
Now we know she seeks human connection. With Jake! (We hope.) Go watch The Mysteries of Laura online to see the chemistry cooking up between them!
Procedurals are a dime a dozen these days, so the case Laura was working in this episode was hardly the focus. The cast works well enough together, however, that the writers could create solid secondary plots from these cases.
So far that’s not what’s happening.
Right now we’re learning about the characters and their histories only through the lens of the cases being solved. In the early stages of this series, we really want to know about the characters so we understand why they solve the cases.
There’s hope, though, right? There’s always hope.
