Movies about lawyers can be a bit mundane sometimes, but Darrow & Darrow is a series that lived up to expectations with each film. The series is a Hallmark Movies & Mysteries Original, meaning it’s fairly lighthearted, but the characters are quite interesting, revolving around relatable topics. And the mysteries are sometimes hard to predict.
That being said, if you liked the first Darrow & Darrow film, you’d probably like the rest and the other way around. I’ve got you covered if you want to give them a shot but don’t know where to start. All four Darrow & Darrow movies are in order, along with everything else you might want to know about the series.
How many Darrow & Darrow movies are there?
Right now, there are four Darrow & Darrow movies in total produced by Hallmark Movies & Mysteries. The first came out in 2017, and the last in 2019. The tetralogy is now viewed as a TV mini-series, although each ‘episode’ is actually a movie in its own right.
Darrow & Darrow movies in order (at a glance)
All four Darrow & Darrow movies are quite similar in their nature and quality. They are as follows:
- ‘Darrow & Darrow’ (2017): Claire Darrow (Kimberly Williams-Paisley) is a brilliant lawyer but might just be too kind for her trade. Her mother, Joanna Darrow (Wendie Malick), is also a lawyer but has a completely different approach to the job. When a jewelry store is robbed, Claire’s best friend is accused, and she does everything she can to get him exonerated.
- ‘Darrow & Darrow: In the Key of Murder’ (2018): After a successful defense in the first case, Claire takes on a murder case involving the sister of the district attorney, Miles Strasberg. Together, they investigate the murder and seek justice.
- ‘Darrow & Darrow: Body of Evidence’ (2018): Claire and her mother Joanna are approached by an old friend, a police officer who believes a woman was wrongfully convicted of murdering her husband. The case leads to the revelation of hidden financial secrets.
- ‘Witness to Murder: A Darrow Mystery’ (2019): Joanna is happy at the Darrow & Darrow law firm but is approached by her former protege, Cassie, who needs help in her insider trading lawsuit. Meanwhile, Claire takes on Cassie’s criminal case, leading to complications with DA Miles Strasberg.
Also, all four Darrow & Darrow movies were written by Phoef Sutton, whereas three different directors took part in the series. Peter DeLuise directed the first film, followed by two movies by Mel Damski, and then the final one was directed by Michael Robison.
Are Darrow & Darrow movies connected? Do you need to watch them in a specific order?
All Darrow & Darrow movies are connected and follow a chronological plot about a mother and daughter who are both lawyers, and a district attorney who works closely with Claire Darrow – the daughter’s lawyer.
You can watch every movie separately to understand the narrative of each film, but you likely won’t get the connections and relationships between recurring characters if you don’t watch the series in a specific order, as it was meant.
What is the best way to watch Darrow & Darrow movies?
Undoubtedly, the best way to watch Darrow & Darrow movies is by their release date. The series was designed as such, and although every movie has its own case and mystery, the characters are recurring, and the relationships between them develop over time. To understand the series the best, you should follow it as it was released.

Where to watch Darrow & Darrow movies?
Darrow & Darrow is a Hallmark Movies & Mysteries original, so if you have access to Hallmark, you’ll probably be able to find them there. It’s also available for streaming on Hallmark Movies Now, a part of Amazon Prime Video, as well as on DIRECTV.
If you don’t have access to any of these, you can buy or rent all of the Darrow & Darrow movies on Amazon, AppleTV, Google Play, YouTube, Vudu, and Roku TV.
Will there be more Darrow & Darrow movies?
At the moment, there are no more Darrow & Darrow movies announced to even be in development, let alone production. Seeing that all four movies came out in a span of two years – and the last movie came out four years ago – I highly doubt that there will be any more Darrow & Darrow movies in the future.
Never say never, however, as there’s always a new story to be told. It was never officially stated by Hallmark that they’re done with Darrow & Darrow, so maybe we’ll get another movie in the future. The answer is it most likely won’t happen, but if it does, we’ll make sure to update you on all the news.
