Fans of the series and star Ashley Jensen were thrilled to learn that Agatha Raisin was coming back for Season 3, but also that the production of the show was being taken over by Acorn TV, as it struck a chord with American audiences from its debut with the movie, Agatha Raisin and the Quiche of Death .
Even Jensen spoke out to say that she’s always eager to slip back into Agatha’s shoes, even if they are deadly uncomfortable.
“I am beyond excited to be returning to my high heels with another series of Agatha Raisin with Acorn TV. I can’t wait to get started on her next fun and frolicsome journey.”
