Enid Devlin (a snake-eyed Margo Martindale, who wields a cane with finesse) runs a bed, breakfast & beyond, complete with a candy dish of condoms in the foyer and a retinue of young women on duty in the tiny Maine town where “Blow the Man Down” is set.

With a gracious exterior that’s only sparingly applied, she fails to hide her true nature for long. She’s too busy for the funeral of her old friend Mary Margaret Connolly, but the rest of the gang, Irish Catholic women who grew up and raised families in Easter Cove, enfold the dead woman’s daughters, Mary Beth (Morgan Saylor) and Priscilla (Sophie Lowe).

In this Amazon feature, streaming on Prime Video, the daughters are bitterly divided. Mary Beth, outwardly more spirited, can’t wait to break free from the town. Priscilla wants to stay and make a go of the family seafood market, although her mother’s only legacy is debt.
