Featured review
An Ecclesiastical Mystery Misfire
In the quaint village of Kembleford, there's a show that's oft absurd,
Father Brown, a series based on Chesterton's word.
But in recent times, alas, the casting's gone awry, To watch the new episodes, one might heave a heavy sigh.
Ruby-May Martinwood, a choice that's quite regrettable, Her acting skills are lacking, indeed, hardly forgettable.
Much like the time Shyko Amos entered Death in Paradise, Ironically, a Ruby too, another casting compromise.
Good old Mrs. McCarthy, a character we cherished, Departed from the series, and the charm it nearly perished.
But wait, the writers struggle with a goal that's so transparent, To bring in gender balance, their efforts become apparent.
They scramble for equality, in crime-solving they endeavor, Yet the replacement's meddling, a cringe-worthy endeavor.
The tales of murder, mystery, once kept us entertained, Now leave us in dismay as the show has been so strained.
But let us not forget, a note of interest to share, The series set in the 1950s, a time that's far from fair.
In spite of all the follies, this period piece does stand, A reminder of the past, a glimpse of a time less grand.
With rhyming verse, I've shared the tale of Father Brown's decline, A once-cherished series now struggles to truly shine.
So let us hope that in the future, the casting shall improve, And the show shall rise once more, finding its perfect groove.
