Darrow & Darrow: In the Key of Murder (movie) (7 pm,
Hallmark M&M)

A simple offer of legal advice turns into the biggest challenge of
Claire Darrow’s legal career when her new beau, District Attorney Miles
Strasberg, introduces her to his younger half-sister, Phoebe. A singer
who has just completed her first album, Phoebe fears that she may have
signed away her rights to her ex-producer, who is threatening to destroy
the recordings. When the producer is found dead in his studio, police
find evidence and motive enough to arrest Phoebe. Though Claire has
never tried a murder case, Miles can’t imagine trusting his beloved
sibling’s fate to anyone else. Working side by side with Miles, Claire
sets out to uncover the truth behind the crime. Starring Kimberly
Williams-Paisley, Wendie Malick and Tom Cavanagh.

I can't figure out the cast listing here - the promos make it clear
that Busby is the "star", not Bowlby, so I'm not sure why they're
leading with Bowlby...

I wonder if the cameraman tripped over furniture at the front of the
shot trying to stay in focus.
