"Hannah Swensen" and "County Rescue" Are Back with a Fresh Batch of Mystery and Medical Drama

( click here to enlarge image )

Happy mid-May weekend, everyone! Check out what's on the menu this weekend!

The Hallmark Channel is serving up an all-new helping of suspense with Best Served Cold: A Hannah Swensen Mystery, where Hannah is once again mixing together her baked desserts and small-town sleuthing!

Meanwhile, over on Great American Family, the medical drama County Rescue returns with its Season Three premiere. Filled with faith, courage, and heartfelt moments, the series continues to follow dedicated first responders as they face personal challenges and their calling to serve others.

🚨Note: I watched the first episode of County Rescue early on Great American Pure Flix, and just wanted to share that due to the intensity of some medical issues and life-saving emergencies, County Rescue is (in my opinion) best suited for mature preteen age and up. This premiere episode is 1 hour and 30 minutes long (with commercials). It's intense and emotional, but also inspiring to see how these close friends, even when times are tough, care for and lean on each other.

See more details for County Rescue and the new Hannah Swensen Mystery below...

☀️ SHINING HIS LIGHT: ☀️

'For I was hungry and you gave me something to eat, I was thirsty and you gave me something to drink, I was a stranger and you invited me in, I needed clothes and you clothed me, I was sick and you looked after me, I was in prison and you came to visit me.’

Then the righteous will answer him, ‘Lord, when did we see you hungry and feed you, or thirsty and give you something to drink? When did we see you a stranger and invite you in, or needing clothes and clothe you? When did we see you sick or in prison and go to visit you?’

The King will reply, ‘Truly I tell you, whatever you did for one of the least of these brothers and sisters of mine, you did for me.’

~Matthew 25: 35-40

💐 Celebrate Mother’s Day Weekend with Movies, Mysteries, and the Must-See "When Hope Calls: Brookfield" Finale

( images: Great American Media / edit: itsawonderfulmovie.com )

Happy Mother's Day Weekend, Friends!

To all the wonderful mommas, grandmothers, and mother figures out there- thank you for the love, wisdom, and care you give so selflessly. Wishing you all a beautiful, joy-filled, and very Happy Mother’s Day!

If you'd like to watch something special with your family on Mother's Day, the "When Hope Calls: Brookfield" finale episode airs this Sunday night on Great American Family! After a season filled with tender moments, quiet longing, and a few unexpected surprises, all eyes are on Brookfield as some of our favorite stories reach what could be life-changing turning points. Will Mountie Michael and Nora finally find the courage to speak the feelings that have been building between them, or will Michael’s duty as a Mountie pull him away from Brookfield just when love seems within reach? And for Hannah and Wyatt or Sam and Maggie, what lies ahead for them... romance, heartache, or perhaps a little drama before the credits roll? However it unfolds, this finale promises plenty of heart, hope, and maybe even a few surprises along the way.

There's also a new Hallmark Channel movie, All’s Fair in Love & Mahjong, premiering this Saturday. I wanted to note that the film has faced a bit of backlash from some critics for focusing the story on a traditional Chinese game while featuring only one actress of Asian heritage in a supporting role. I would love to know what you all think. I'm not personally familiar with the game, but I know it is currently quite popular among people of all colors and ethnic backgrounds across the country. Please share your thoughts, and if you plan to watch in comments below.

A few weeks ago, I mentioned to you all that a new Hannah Swensen movie was coming. Finally, it's official! Alison Sweeney, Cameron Mathison, Barbara Niven, and Gabriel Hogan will return for this all-new mystery movie that will premiere on Hallmark Movies & Mysteries. See all the details in Hallmark's press release below...

Hallmark Media Press Release:

ALISON SWEENEY BAKES UP

A NEW MYSTERY DELIGHT IN

'CARROT CAKE:
A HANNAH SWENSEN MYSTERY'(wt)

WITH FAN FAVORITES

CAMERON MATHISON

AND BARBARA NIVEN

Latest Installment in Highly Popular Franchise Currently in Production and Set to Premiere Later this Year

STUDIO CITY, CA -- February 28, 2023 - Alison Sweeney ("Days of Our Lives"), Cameron Mathison ("General Hospital"), and Barbara Niven ("Chesapeake Shores") reprise their roles in "Carrot Cake: A Hannah Swensen Mystery"(wt), currently in production for premiering later this year on Hallmark Movies & Mysteries, it was announced today. Gabriel Hogan ("Heartland") from the original cast also returns in this latest installment. Sweeney serves as executive producer.

"The adventures of Hannah Swensen have long been a favorite among our viewers, and we're thrilled to bring them a new mystery they can try to solve at home along with Hannah," said Elizabeth Yost, Senior Vice President, Development, Hallmark Media. "Being able to reunite Alison Sweeney, Cameron Mathison, and Barbara Niven for this latest installment makes it even sweeter."

"The fans of Hannah Swensen are incredible, and we are so excited to make more mysteries to share with them. Plus, working together again with Cam and Barbara is so much fun!," Sweeney enthused.

Sweeney returns as Hannah Swensen, everyone's favorite crime-solving baker.

Alison Sweeney, Craig Baumgarten Jamie Goehring, Shawn Williamson, and Joanne Fluke are executive producers. Pat Williams directs from a script by Melissa Salmons, based on Fluke's novel Carrot Cake Murder.

- HALLMARK MOVIES & MYSTERIES -

My Quick Take:

It's nice to see not only a new mystery but a familiar one at that, which first began on Hallmark Movies & Mysteries as Murder, She Baked: A Chocolate Chip Cookie Mystery in 2015! This series got a new start and a new title in 2021 with Hannah Swensen Mysteries, but you'll still see most of the same beloved characters from the original series. Speaking of that, I haven't heard whether or not either sister will be in this movie. I was hoping since fans missed Andrea (portrayed by Lisa Durupt) in the previous movie, they might bring her back for this one. However, since there isn't any word there, I'm thinking that isn't a good sign. Have any of you heard or seen anything regarding this? I sure would love to see Hannah and Andrea crime-solving together again!

Happy sleuthing,

What a fun weekend this looks like it will be for new movie premieres! I'm personally looking forward to seeing them all... eventually!

I'm intrigued that Great American Family's new movie, Romantic Rewrite, is about an editor and a mystery writer attempting to write a romance novel together. That will surely be an interesting tale.

And Hallmark's chocolate-themed movie, Sweeter Than Chocolate, looks especially sweet; plus, it's perfect timing with Valentine's Day coming up!

For those of you who don't have Hallmark Movies & Mysteries, you'll have a chance to see one of their movies, The Presence of Love, starring Eloise Mumford, on the Hallmark Channel on Saturday at 12pm/11c. (See reviews for The Presence of Love - here.)

I love that Hallmark Movies & Mysteries is playing a Garage Sale Mystery marathon on Sunday, along with the last movie in the series, "Garage Sale Mysteries: Searched & Seized". My cable guide is currently showing a different movie title at that time, so I'm wondering if this was a recent schedule change??? I'm so glad more viewers will finally be able to see this last completed mystery in the series. I have viewed "Garage Sale Mysteries: Searched & Seized" on DVD, and you can read my review - here.

Which movie (or movies) are you looking forward to seeing this weekend?
