Hallmark Announces MAY 2024 New Movie Premieres - SEE DETAILS:




Hallmark will be premiering NEW MOVIES in MAY!

Two new romantic comedies will premiere on the Hallmark Channel, while one all-new mystery is set to premiere on Hallmark Mystery!

You can see my thoughts on these new movies at the end of this post.

See all of the movie details below...


🌸🌸🌸🌸🌸🌸🌸🌸🌸🌸🌸🌸



HALLMARK CHANNEL
All premieres are at 8 p.m. ET/PT.



A Whitewater Romance

Starring: Cindy Busby and Ben Hollingsworth

Premieres: May 11, 2024

Storyline: Maya attends an exclusive business retreat in the Rocky Mountains where she meets Matt who, initially, is her competitor. As they're forced to pair up, an unlikely connection begins to evolve.

Movie Review:

🌊 A Whitewater Romance is a fun, clean movie! -Maria

🌊 A White Water Romance – This movie was sooo funny! Even just thinking about certain scenes still makes me laugh.

I previously adored Cindy Busby and Benjamin Hollingsworth in the more dramatic Christmas movie, "A Godwink Christmas: Meant for Love" (which is my favorite of the series), and I thought they were also sweet together in this!

Most Hallmark rom-com movies these days are geared for an older demographic, but this is one I think even younger viewers would enjoy due to the outdoor activities and comedy.

"A White Water Romance" is very family-friendly and wholesome; it may inspire viewers to try new things and go on an adventure! ~Net



🌸🌸🌸🌸🌸🌸🌸🌸🌸🌸🌸🌸





Everything Puppies

Starring: Pascal Lamothe-Kipnes, Stephen Huszar, and Kathryn Davis

Premieres: May 18, 2024

Storyline: A dedicated entrepreneur and inventor looking to make it big creating innovative dog toys and treats finds success with the support of a handsome client.

Movie Review:

🐶 Everything Puppies is family friendly about a dedicated entrepreneur & inventor named Scarlet Townsend works at Pup Palate Premium Treats Nutrition for Palate Healthy Treats who is looking to make it big creating innovative dog toys and treats finds success with the support of a handsome client named Alex Paulsen works at Happy Harvest on 10th Avenue Store. Alex & Scarett are attending to Paws & Wellness Emporium. Bernese Mountain Dog smells chew dog treats goes all the way down the hall at the meeting

Scarlett (Lamothe-Kipnes) is a hardworking entrepreneur and inventor looking to make it big with innovative dog toys and treats. Her latest puppy treat recipe is already all the rage with the dogs on her block, she just needs a distributor to bring her product to the masses. But she can’t land it on the shelves of any local grocers until she meets Alex (Huszar), who runs Happy Harvest and is so impressed by her product that he puts in an order and quickly sells out. As he and Scarlett work together to keep the supply of puppy treats coming, a competitor gets a whiff of her product and does everything he can to shut her down. ~Anonymous

🐶 Everything Puppies – This movie is mostly wholesome, cute, and lighthearted, but it’s also rather cheesy. The puppies in the movie are extremely adorable.

It didn't make sense that this was a Countdown to Summer movie; it looked more like Fall.

My only caution is - at the end (SPOILER) they made it clear that the lead couple is engaged and they are going away for the weekend camping. Just before the credits roll, we see them kissing around a campfire with their dogs in one small tent together and one tent for them in the background. With or without the end, it was already a one-time watch for me. ~Net

HALLMARK MYSTERY
Premieres at 9 p.m. ET/PT.



Family Practice Mysteries: Coming Home

Starring: Amanda Schull and Brendan Penny

Premieres: May 17, 2024

Storyline: A former Army surgeon moves back to her hometown and joins a practice of family doctors, but when she's drawn into solving the mysterious death of a patient, her quiet life becomes upended.


Movie Reviews:

🔎📌 Family Practice Mysteries: Coming Home Review.... A very good mystery. I can see this being a great series. Her relationship with her teenage children (who are very respectful) is great like Garage Sale Mysteries and has the same with her widowed father(similar to Mystery 101). It was family-friendly and it was another one of those kinds when the detective shares information!! His only fault is that he's a cat person...haha ;) I laughed when Rachel said Einstein had a dog.😂😂

There was a scene when her work friend is doing yoga meditation. I was glad they didn't really go into it and in the end(killer reveal scene) there is a mention of the "D" word. Which was unfortunate, normally there is no language. Overall, I am glad I watched it and hope to see more! ~Abigail

🔎📌 "Family Practice Mysteries: Coming Home" - I saw this movie on streaming service. It's family friendly. Acting was good. Story is a little hard to follow. No real dynamics, but over all was a good mystery. ~Joyce in Carolina

🔎📌 The Family Practice mysteries is streaming early on Hallmark Now. The movie was family-friendly, but I'll admit I was surprised that two swear words were included towards the end of the movie. Other than that it was surprisingly good. ~Laura

🔎📌 Review: Family Practice Mysteries: Coming Home (watched on Hallmark Now) -

Family-friendly? Yes (and I didn't catch any language problems at the end, and I double-checked with subtitles) -
Recommended? Worth a one-time watch -

I mentioned during the Christmas season how so many recent movies seem to be putting the relationship between the main couple on the side and emphasizing something else (like family relations). Here, the murder mystery is front and center, with the relationship a distant second (or maybe even third, since the kids' struggles are also emphasized). Anyway, this is an enjoyable mystery (although pretty easy to solve) with a few sub-plots and great acting by Amanda and Brendan. I can see where they would be considering this for a series. For me, this is worth a one-time watch - it's not great, but not bad. ~Mark 25



🔎🔎🔎🔎🔎🔎🔎🔎🔎🔎🔎🔎




Once again, it appears that Cindy Busby is Chasing Waterfalls in her new May movie premiere, A Whitewater Romance. Cindy has starred in several previous movies that center around the great outdoors, Love in Zion National: A National Park Romance, Marry Me in Yosemite, Warming up to You (included an outdoor health retreat camp), and, of course, the aforementioned movie, Chasing Waterfalls. I think Cindy Busby and Ben Hollingsworth look like a good pairing in this new outdoor movie!

The puppy movie looks cute enough. I mean, who doesn't love adorable puppy dogs on TV? The title, Everything Puppies, I must admit, is a little cheesy, but it still might be sweet. At least it looks like it should be a lighthearted, family-friendly movie.

Also, another all-new mystery is coming in May. While I'm generally not excited about another new mystery when others have been left undone, since this one will star two actors who are well-liked in the Hallmark family, Amanda Schull, and Brendan Penny, I'm rather looking forward to hearing more about it!

I would love to hear your opinions, too! Please share your thoughts in comments below.

Happy movie watching,

🌼🌸 Where to Find * The Blessing Bracelet * Seen in the New Hallmark Faith-Based Easter Movie! 🌸🌼 Details Here:



The Blessing Bracelet, seen in the new Hallmark movie on actress Amanda Schull, was inspired by the uplifting, inspirational jewelry brand, Made As Intended by founder Dawn Sprong. According to the brand's website, the Blessing Bracelet began as a gift to friends, a reminder of the power of gratitude. Today, over 1 million Blessing Bracelets have been shared around the world, and you can own one (or more) and gift them to family and friends, too.

Each Blessing Bracelet includes this encouraging, thought-provoking message: 

“This is a Blessing Bracelet. Whenever you wear it, acknowledge one blessing in your life for each pearl on the bracelet. Each time you are drawn to the bracelet, silently find four people or things you can be grateful for.

Be grateful for: Your children, a flower, your dog, a perfect cup of coffee, a roof over your head – just find something. The more you wear the bracelet and the more blessings you find, the more you will be blessed. In one year, if followed, you will be aware of a profound change in your life.”


I personally love that there's a deeper message in this faith-based film, The Blessing Bracelet, which is a DaySpring Presentation. DaySpring is a well-known greeting cards and gifts company whose mission statement is "to bring you resources that are biblically true, spiritually relevant, and life-giving." The blessing bracelet reflects that same mission in being more than simple jewelry; it's a wonderful, beautiful reminder to look for and seek out all of the blessings in our lives, big or small, which in turn, will deepen our faith and spiritual journey.

The Blessing Bracelet storyline: Dawn Spencer (Amanda Schull) approaches the Easter holiday trying to balance being a single parent while working to get out of the debt left behind by her ex-husband. Feeling overwhelmed, Dawn unearths a bracelet she made years earlier and stored away. She created it using four beads with the intention of using each one as a reminder to count the blessings in her life. As Dawn begins to focus on the good, her faith is renewed, and her life takes a positive turn. Thanks to the support of Dawn’s church community and the encouragement by Ben (Carlo Marks), who recently came into her life, the blessing bracelets help take her down a path she never could have imagined.





The bracelets come in a variety of sizes, shapes, and colors, so you can personalize what style suits you!
