      69% 13 Reviews Tomatometer 44% Fewer than 50 Ratings Audience Score Charlie Contour and Holly Hamilton were stars of a detective series in the '90s, but their lives have taken different paths since the show ended. Charlie is a suburban housewife and mother, but Holly longs to return to her glory days as a TV star. That's about to change when a megafan, Nick, witnesses a crime. He refuses to speak of it to anyone but his favorite TV detectives, prompting the former gal pals to reunite to solve a real mystery. The show's plot is a case of art imitating life as "Mystery Girls" reunites "Beverly Hills, 90210" co-stars Jennie Garth and Tori Spelling as the lead characters. Read More Read Less

      What to Know

      Critics Consensus

      Though the execution is typical, the corny jokes and broad acting make Mystery Girls a fun, sentimental throwback sitcom that benefits from the nostalgic reunion of Tori Spelling and Jennie Garth.

      Matthew Gilbert Boston Globe This is overly lit shtick that gets rancid after five minutes. Jul 3, 2014 Full Review Mary McNamara Los Angeles Times Unfortunately, creator Shepard Boucher (Men at Work) seems confined by the limitations of his stars, who are clearly not interested in actually exploring the real vagaries of fame. Jun 25, 2014 Full Review Gail Pennington St. Louis Post-Dispatch The show (co-created by Spelling) is standard-issue cable sitcom, with acting that's too broad (Garth is the exception here) and a laugh track that's loud and awkward. Rated: 2/4 Jun 25, 2014 Full Review Eleni Armenakis The Loop There's always some kind of fun that comes with watching stars laugh at themselves, so I wouldn't be surprised if more than a few former fans checked back in for more. Jun 26, 2014 Full Review Emily Ashby Common Sense Media As a whole, the characters are far from modeling responsible behavior, but that's clearly not a goal of this carefree comedy series that pins its hopes on drawing adult viewers by reuniting Beverly Hills, 90210 stars Jennie Garth and Tori Spelling. Rated: 3/5 Jun 26, 2014 Full Review Rob Owen Pittsburgh Post-Gazette Mystery Girls has some fun with viewer knowledge of rumors of disharmony on the 90210 set (yes, Shannen Doherty gets a shout-out) even if it all plays to cat-fighting women stereotypes.
