cr, some of the later ones are particularly bad. The best of the later ones, off the top of my head, were After The Funeral and Five Little Pigs. The Hollow, Sad Cypress, and Curtain were pretty good. Some were shit because they were shit books (Dead Man's Folly, The Clocks, Elephants Can Remember) and some were shit just because they butchered them (Death on the Nile, Murder on the Orient Express). the early seasons had a lighter air, and better sets.

Yes, seen all the seasons twice. Love it. It gets more grim at the end so I do like the earlier seasons better but they are all worth watching.

I really enjoyed Death on the Nile. Yeah the plot and solution are contrived and unrealistic but also very elegant in the way all the little details come together.

Read Ten Little Niggers as a kid, and it was fun, but something about Poirot just does it for me.

I picked up the novel in an airport back in February. Rekindled my love for the portly little Belgian, have read a few since. Death on the Nile still probably my favorite, though I also remember really liking Roger Ackroyd as a teen.

I enjoyed Five Little Pigs, mainly because it mirrors my own family dynamics. There was an "Elsa Greer" in my family, and she triggered a cascade of awful events that damaged the family system. AFAIK, Christie drew inspiration from real people, so the pattern definitely repeats IRL.
