“Diarra from Detroit,” which premieres Thursday on BET+, is a quirky, contemporary series about a woman in the Motor City who’s going through a divorce and becomes obsessed with the dating-app match who disappears after one perfect date.
So why was it partly inspired by old, conventional mysteries like “Matlock,” “Columbo” and “Murder, She Wrote”? Because that’s what Diarra Kilpatrick, the star and creator of the new streaming series, used to watch with her grandmother as a child in the D.
I love the series!! It’s funny, danger and exciting!!!! Great Works!!!
