Hallmark Mysteries & More ·

2026/09/15

We would love to hear from you. Send us your thoughts or suggestions. Andrea picked 2017's A Harvest Wedding for her favorite fall rewatch, and Eric came along to see if Victor Webster and Jill Wagner's farm set romance still holds up. Andrea gives it a full five out of five. Eric has a longer list of questions about crop rotation, barn maintenance, and a farmer somehow growing seventeen different vegetables, but both of them agree the ending is one of the more surprising Hallmark has ever p...

Haunted Harmony Mysteries: Prelude to a Wedding Review

Hallmark Mysteries & More ·

2026/09/10

We would love to hear from you. Send us your thoughts or suggestions. Andrea gave Haunted Harmony Mysteries: Prelude to a Wedding a full five out of five, calling it the strongest entry in the series since the premiere. Eric landed at three (nudged up to a 3.75 after some back and forth), mostly because the mystery itself doesn't give viewers enough to work with. Eric and Andrea break down the Ireland setting, the love triangle between Eamon, Griff, and Inspector O'Reilly, a Sister Sister tr...

Hallmark Mysteries & More ·

2026/09/08

We would love to hear from you. Send us your thoughts or suggestions. Andrea made Eric watch Garage Sale Mysteries: Picture a Murder (2018) before the new one hits Hallmark Plus, and it turns into one of those episodes where the two of them do not entirely agree. Andrea gives it four out of five stars. Eric enjoyed the characters just as much, but thinks the mystery itself gets left in the dust. What You'll Hear: • How Jen Shannon (Lori Loughlin) ends up investigating a decades-old cam...

We would love to hear from you. Send us your thoughts or suggestions. Eric and Andrea sit down with Hallmark's modern spin on Much Ado About Nothing, Much About Love, starring Ashley Williams and Niall Matter as feuding exes Beatrice and Benedict. Both hosts land on the same 3.5 out of 5 stars, but for very different reasons, and one wordless scene at a kitchen table nearly wins them over completely. Along the way, they also reveal the fall Hallmark movies they're each committing to review n...
