Synopsis

It's the 1960s. The height of the Cold War. The rural town of Granite Flats, Colorado, suddenly becomes a hotbed for mystery and intrigue. Almost a year after Hershel Jenkins was released from jail, mystery is still a permanent resident in Granite Flats, Colorado. From small concerns plaguing the citizens of the small town to ongoing FBI investigations, Arthur, Timmy, and Madeline are eager to put their developing detective skills to the test. Their sleuthing goes further than ever before, and they may be biting off more than they can chew. And as it turns out, sleuthing is a family affair. The parents of all three miniature detectives have dipped their toes in the water. Chief Sanders works side by side with the FBI to find a citizen who is disloyal to the country, Beth is embroiled in the center of experimental work at the hospital, and the Doctors Andrews are the masterminds behind the shady experiments. This season, everyone has got a secret and nobody is ready to admit it.

Matcollis This Movie Can Only Be Described With One Word.
BroadcastChic Excellent, a Must See
filippaberry84 I think this is a new genre that they're all sort of working their way through it and haven't got all the kinks worked out yet but it's a genre that works for me.
Sarita Rafferty There are moments that feel comical, some horrific, and some downright inspiring but the tonal shifts hardly matter as the end results come to a film that's perfect for this time.
teresagaddy Enjoyed the show. Watched it on Hulu spring 2018 and found that there is a missing Episode. between SPOILER ALERT - between season end of season 2 and the start of season 3, when one person flies to DC to "wake up" another person from doing something bad during a hypnotic state, and then all of a sudden the funeral took place last week and they are moving forward. WHERE IS THE MISSING EPISODE?
johnbgrier This starts out as a rather somewhat predictable story of a group of 11 year olds, one of which sees something in the late night sky. They all work together to determine just what happened. When they get together with one of their fathers (who happens to be the chief of police in a small town) things grow from there. The story matures each season, the acting improves, and the story line grows deeper and more complex.The 3rd season is really good, as the young characters show a great degree in maturity (probably too much for 13 year olds), and the adults are puzzled and confused as well (both with themselves, their associates, and children).Some times overly dramatic, yet --- still an outstanding series for the whole family. I personally loved the old cars. There were a few costume errors. Filmed in Utah, which resembles Stratmoore/ Ft. Carson, CO (just outside Colorado Springs) in the mid 1960's.
rmcblc I think I gave it more than a fair chance, but maybe it wasn't meant to be watched by adults. Grandkids, forgive me; after all these episodes, you'll have to go it alone. I think the show borders on terrible.Is it the acting? The direction? The writing? The music? Yes!!!The story moves along like molasses in January. And then, the words -- the words the actors speak. Who talks like that? They all sound like robots. I grew up in the '50s and '60s, and I can tell you, neither kids nor adults spoke in such a way -- highly educated or high school dropout. Father Knows Best and Leave It to Beaver are more realistic than this show when it comes to depicting conversation.I'm guessing the actors are doing the best they can, struggling under the load of verbiage. They need some leeway in interpreting their roles. The director and writers must realize this is the 1960's we're talking about (and talking in), not the -- what would it be? -- 1860's or 1760's. (Or maybe the original Hardy Boys or Nancy Drew mysteries of the 1930's. A few more years and the kids will be old enough to go cruise around Granite Flats in their "roadster.") The music, oh so mysterious -- all the time -- to match the cryptic dialogue delivered in such an over-the-top sinister way. Boo! Which points out another problem in the writing. This show badly needs some sustained lighter moments, not just a quick brush of humor.I could go on and on, but then this would be as depressing as the show is with its plot wandering around and around, looking for some merciful ending.
kathryn6-784-584138 I've really enjoyed watching the first season of Granite Flats. The story is interesting and keeps me guessing, and I like the 1960s era setting. It's nice to have a show that adults, children, and teenagers can watch together and there is something for everyone.I love how the opening title sequence really sets the tone for the show: it's 1960s nostalgic and kind of gives you a feel for what the town of Granite Flats is like. The lyrics about the end of the world hint at the suspicion and fear that were part of the Cold War era, and which are very much alive in the town.I also really appreciate being able to watch an entertaining show without worrying about anything objectionable coming on. It's definitely a refreshing change from the norm.Great show!
