| 4/29/26 | ![]() I'll Be Seeing You with Tyler Hynes Review | We would love to hear from you. Send us your thoughts or suggestions. 🚐 An activities director with a tumbleweed soul. A woman who needs to finally take the leap. A vintage van, a grandma on a mission, and the song that makes everyone think of The Notebook. This one had us from the first five minutes. This week Eric and Andrea are reviewing I’ll Be Seeing You, Hallmark’s road trip romance starring Tyler Hynes, Stacey Farber, and Christine Ebersole. When a work errand derails Amy’s plans for ... | 22m 11s | ||||||
| 4/28/26 | ![]() The Way Home Season 4 Episode 2 Review | We would love to hear from you. Send us your thoughts or suggestions. Young Fern showed up in 1925, called Kat “Kitty Cat,” and immediately became our favorite character in the entire series. This is The Way Home we’ve been waiting for. Eric and Andrea dive into Season 4, Episode 2 — “Blinded by the Light” — where Kat lands in a new era of Port Haven history and the mysteries are stacking up fast. In a role reversal from their usual dynamic, Andrea is all in, and even the show’s biggest skep... | 23m 54s | ||||||
| 4/24/26 | ![]() Hope Valley 1874 Episode 5 Review | We would love to hear from you. Send us your thoughts or suggestions. Eric and Andrea are back to break down Episode 5 of Hallmark's new frontier drama — "Finally Home" — and they've got thoughts. Rebecca finally opens up to Tom about who she's running from (spoiler: it's complicated and it's 1874), Clayton and Olivia get a little steamy over some woodworking, Alexander is trying to keep his cool, and Hattie gets a safe cracker who really wants his full dollar. Plus, the kids get lost in the... | 21m 43s | ||||||
| 4/22/26 | ![]() To Philly with Love Review | We would love to hear from you. Send us your thoughts or suggestions. 💌 A teacher and an archivist decode Revolutionary War-era love letters in Philadelphia. Likeable leads, a fun premise — and a script that couldn't quite get out of its own way. Eric and Andrea review To Philly with Love, starring Rebecca Dalton and Stephen Huszar. Andrea gives it a 2-star verdict. Eric lands in a similar place. Both of us really liked the leads and wanted them to have a better movie to be in. What worked: ... | 22m 20s | ||||||
| 4/20/26 | ![]() The Way Home Season 4 Episode 1 Review | We would love to hear from you. Send us your thoughts or suggestions. Kat and Alice both fall in the pond — and come out in two different timelines, face-to-face with Fern. That ending alone has us hyped for the final season of The Way Home. Eric and Andrea break down The Way Home Season 4, Episode 1 — the start of the FINAL season. Andrea is fully back on board and loved the premiere. Eric is more skeptical, and this episode didn't change his mind about Kat. What worked: the graduation flas... | 18m 24s | ||||||
| 4/16/26 | ![]() A Little Park Music Review | We would love to hear from you. Send us your thoughts or suggestions. A piano appears in the park. Nobody knows who put it there. And somehow this turns into one of the best Hallmark movies of 2026. This week we’re reviewing A Little Park Music starring Lacey J. Malley and Beau Mirchoff. When a mysterious piano shows up in the town gazebo and interferes with city business, uptight City Manager Ali is forced to team up with by-the-book rookie cop Ryan to get rid of it — only to discover that ... | 20m 36s | ||||||
| 4/15/26 | ![]() Hope Valley 1874 Episode 4 Review | We would love to hear from you. Send us your thoughts or suggestions. The goats delivered. The humans? It’s complicated. This week we’re back in Hope Valley for “Trading Places” — the episode where Rebecca applies her medical skills after Nash breaks his leg, strikes an accidental bargain to plow a field for lumber, and somehow ends up doing the job of about six people at once. We break down what we loved (that field plowing scene, the dinner bet, the Tom and Rebecca dynamic quietly inching ... | 17m 27s | ||||||
| 4/13/26 | ![]() A Season to Blossom Review | We would love to hear from you. Send us your thoughts or suggestions. This week we’re reviewing A Season to Blossom, Hallmark’s spring romance starring Emily Tennant and Carlo Marx. An aspiring writer returns to sell her late grandmother’s bookstore, rediscovers her voice and her roots, and finds herself falling for her childhood crush all over again. It’s the old-school Hallmark comfort we’ve been craving — and it actually feels like spring. We break down why the chemistry between the leads... | 20m 08s | ||||||
| 4/7/26 | ![]() Hope Valley 1874 Episode 3 Review | We would love to hear from you. Send us your thoughts or suggestions. Eric and Andrea are back with their review of Hope Valley 1874 Episode 3, "Good Prospects." Rebecca's mess tent, the Olivia/Alexander/Clayton love triangle, a standout new character in Phoebe the beekeeper, and why Bethany Joy Lenz is simply operating at a different level than everyone else on screen.

Eric and Andrea are back in 1874 for Episode 2 of Hope Valley 1874, "All in a Dream," and things are starting to pick up. Rebecca gets resourceful when Tom shuts her down on lumber for the boarding house, Mounty Alexander steps in to mediate a rancher vs. prospector conflict, and we're getting our first real hints at what Rebecca is running from. The verdict? It's better than the premiere. Bethany Joy Lenz continues to car... | 13m 37s | ||||||
| 4/2/26 | ![]() A Royal Setting Review | We would love to hear from you. Send us your thoughts or suggestions. Eric and Andrea review A Royal Setting starring Jen Lilley and Dan Jeannotte, and this one didn't land. Despite two charming leads and an entertaining supporting cast, A Royal Setting checks every single royal movie box without bringing anything new to the table. Fake country, questionable accent, overbearing royal assistant, commoner gets sent away, commoner comes back. You've seen it before. You'll see it again. The high... | 18m 52s | ||||||

In this exclusive interview, beloved actress Jen Lilley (Days of Our Lives, General Hospital) sits down to discuss her incredible journey from soap opera veteran to Hallmark Channel royalty. Jen pulls back the curtain on the high-stakes world of daytime television, revealing the intense pressure of memorizing 40 pages of dialogue a day and the brutal reality of being "recast" without warning. She also addresses the elephan... | 58m 36s | ||||||
| 3/19/26 | ![]() Nelly Knows Mysteries: All Manners of Murder Review | We would love to hear from you. Send us your thoughts or suggestions. Is there any Hallmark pairing more iconic than Pascale Hutton and Kavan Smith? From their beloved roles as Rosemary and Lee in When Calls the Heart to their many standalone rom-coms and mysteries, we are diving deep into their entire filmography. In this episode, we review their most famous collaborations, discussing why their "oil and water" chemistry works so well and which movies are must-watches (and which ones you mig... | 32m 25s | ||||||
| 3/12/26 | ![]() Sugar and Vice: A Hannah Swensen Mystery Review | We would love to hear from you. Send us your thoughts or suggestions. In this episode of the Hallmark Mysteries and More podcast, hosts Art and Andrea take a deep dive into the latest Hannah Swensen Mystery: Sugar and Spice. While the duo loves a good costume party and a "closed-room" murder mystery, this installment left them craving more substance and a lot less predictability. We break down everything from the extravagant costumes (shoutout to the mermaid look!) to the disappointing lack ... | 20m 47s | ||||||

Eric and Andrea dive deep into these two Hallmark features to see if they deliver the "Happily Ever After" we crave—or if they’re just plain "Meh." In this episode of Hallmark, Mysteries, and More, we get honest about the lack of chemistry in Stars Between Us, despite the stunning celestial backdrop. Then, we head over to Ne... | 23m 32s | ||||||

In this episode, we dive deep into the 2022 Hallmark classic, Aurora Teagarden Mysteries: Haunted by Murder. As the final film featuring Candace Cameron Bure in the titular role, we explore whether this "spooky" installment lived up to the hype or leaned a little too far into Scooby-Doo territory. We break down the intricate plot involving a cold case from Aurora and Sally’s teenage years, the return of the Real Murders Cl... | 34m 57s | ||||||
| 2/19/26 | ![]() The Way to You and Because of Cupid Review | We would love to hear from you. Send us your thoughts or suggestions. Is February 2026 the best month in Hallmark history? In today’s episode of The Way to You Podcast, Eric and Andrea dive deep into two of the biggest releases of the month: the New York City subway romance "The Way to You" and the mystical mixology of "Because of Cupid." We break down why one of these films earned a rare 5-star rating and is already being called a "Hallmark Hall of Fame" contender, while the other left us w... | 35m 41s | ||||||
| 2/12/26 | ![]() Aurora Teagarden: The Julius House Review | We would love to hear from you. Send us your thoughts or suggestions. Is The Julius House truly the peak of the Aurora Teagarden Mysteries, or are we just blinded by nostalgia? In today’s episode, Andrea and Eric dive deep into the fourth installment of the iconic Hallmark series. We’re breaking down everything from the "shady" backgrounds in our own studios to the questionable acting choices of Candace Cameron Bure. We discuss the 12-year (or was it 4-year?) time jump, the baffling common s... | 32m 18s | ||||||
| 2/5/26 | ![]() Rescued by Love and Missing the Boat Reviews | We would love to hear from you. Send us your thoughts or suggestions. Andrea and Eric are back to break down the final waves of the Hallmark Channel Winter Escapes programming event! In this episode, we dive deep into the hit Missing the Boat, starring Kristoffer Polaha and Emilie Ullerup.

We also discuss the surprise "mystery" rom-com Rescued by Love starring Rachael Leigh Cook and Luke Macfarl... | 33m 04s | ||||||
| 1/30/26 | ![]() Kristoffer Polaha Dishes on Missing the Boat, His Career, and of course, Mystery 101 | We would love to hear from you. Send us your thoughts or suggestions. In this conversation, the "King of Hallmark" himself, Kristoffer Polaha, sits down to discuss his expansive career, his artistic philosophy, and the future of the fan-favorite series, Mystery 101.

| 1/12/26 | ![]() Love in Paradise Review | We would love to hear from you. Send us your thoughts or suggestions. Hallmark January movies are usually where joy goes to die, but Lost in Paradise just changed the game. Hallmark stranded Lacey Chabert and Ian Harding on a tropical island in Fiji, and somehow, it resulted in the best banter I’ve heard in years! In this review, we’re breaking down why this is Hallmark’s perfect apology for years of disappointing January releases (looking at you, Love on the Right Course). We dis... | 10m 49s | ||||||
