Why it fits: The uneasy guessing and dark humour in Hunting Alice Bell suit a comic mystery where ordinary family life keeps colliding with danger. Fran faces online accusations and shifting suspicions among the women around her, while a newly divorced mother’s amateur sleuthing tangles with a custody fight, murder, and youth soccer.
Why it fits
Hunting Alice Bell turns women under suspicion into a paranoid whodunnit; Kill Jackie also centres a dangerous woman with a criminal past, but sends her after the hitmen hired to kill her. Its dark comedy and one-by-one action make for a more openly propulsive, violent watch.
Why it fits
Hunting Alice Bell makes hidden identities and shifting suspicion the engine of its whodunnit; Black Doves brings secret double lives into a brisk spy thriller. Its sharp banter and bursts of action lighten the mood, while an assassination investigation and political secrets replace the group’s uneasy guessing game.
Why it fits
The women under suspicion in Hunting Alice Bell give its mystery a strong focus on women facing public judgment; Believe Me centres women fighting to have their cases heard. This is a serious true-crime drama about police failures and persistence, with less whodunnit suspense and a heavier emotional weight.
