Happy Wednesday, friends! Typically the movie reminders are mainly on the weekend here at It's a Wonderful Movie (except Christmas, of course!), but there are several notable movies airing this week on TV - I thought you all might enjoy watching now or DVR-ing (is that a word?) for the weekend!

The first movie is one that was originally available through Hallmark's streaming service Hallmark Movies Now. Then it aired twice, I believe, on Hallmark Drama, and now it is airing for the first time on the Hallmark Channel...





Storyline via Hallmark: When a series of wedding-planning setbacks raises the bride’s doubts, Maid of Honor Meg and Best Man Tyler put their old differences aside to restore the couple’s faith in love with a walk down memory lane.

Note: I have not viewed this movie, yet, but I have heard from various sources that it is family friendly.

It's an all new rom-com movie premiere on BYU...





Storyline: Marketing whiz Lara Thompson is living a fast-paced life in the big city when she’s summoned to the sleepy town of Kissing Falls to settle the affairs of her late Aunt Vivienne who owned a tea shop. Lara originally plans to sell the shop quickly, but switches course to fulfill her aunt’s last wish – to have one of her teas awarded by the prestigious International Council of Tea Sommeliers. With the help of handsome local flower expert Matt, Lara sets out to recreate a long lost “love potion” tea. One problem – the tea’s secret ingredient is the extinct Kissing Falls rose. As Lara and Matt work together, she finds herself not only falling for Matt but for the town itself.

It's a two-part patriotic "Signed, Sealed, Delivered" movie showing on Hallmark Movies & Mysteries with...


and



SIGNED, SEALED, DELIVERED: TRUTH BE TOLD storyline: The POstables are on a mission to deliver a soldier's letter from Afghanistan to a teenager who's being relentlessly bullied, while Oliver's estranged father surprises him with news that shakes him to his core.

SIGNED, SEALED, DELIVERED: THE IMPOSSIBLE DREAM storyline: The POstables work against the clock decoding a letter to rescue a soldier in Afghanistan and reunite her with her family, while Rita competes for the National Miss Special Delivery title in Washington, D.C.

This series is truly my favorite of everything that airs re-occurring on Hallmark. As I've mentioned before, I like the stories of faith and how Oliver's Divine-Delivery theory is incorporated into each story. SSD is beautiful, powerful, puzzling, and heartwarming! I highly recommend the entire SIGNED, SEALED, DELIVERED series, and I'm thrilled the cast is currently filming Movie #11!

Together Forever Tea - Starring Kim Crossman and Jay Ryan on BYUtv! SEE HERE:


MOVIE REVIEW

Movie: Together Forever Tea

Network: BYUtv

Original Air Date: August 6, 2021 at 1pm/12c.

Starring: Kim Crossman and Jay Ryan



Storyline: Marketing whiz Lara Thompson is living a fast-paced life in the big city when she’s summoned to the sleepy town of Kissing Falls to settle the affairs of her late Aunt Vivienne who owned a tea shop. Lara originally plans to sell the shop quickly, but switches course to fulfill her aunt’s last wish – to have one of her teas awarded by the prestigious International Council of Tea Sommeliers. With the help of handsome local flower expert Matt, Lara sets out to recreate a long lost “love potion” tea. One problem – the tea’s secret ingredient is the extinct Kissing Falls rose. As Lara and Matt work together, she finds herself not only falling for Matt but for the town itself.


Review:

 "Together Forever Tea - This movie is sweet, but a little slow moving, at times. I liked the present story with the leads gradually falling in love and working together on a special tea, but I thought the love story that was never fulfilled from the past was rather sad. Overall, the movie is a nice rom-com and family friendly." ~Net

 "The title of the movie is so weird that I wondered what we were letting ourselves in for but this is another from a company relatively new to us which has come through with a lovely and charming family friendly movie. The pairing of Kim Crossman and Jay Ryan - neither of whom I had heard of before - was just perfect and although the plot moved at a gentle pace they lit up the screen to such an extent that you were totally captivated by them. I thought they were both excellent in their roles. Some aspects of the plot were staple fare but trying to recreate a special tea brew made it that bit different. The one downside was the sub-plot of the aunt having had a disastrous love affair in her youth which was responsible for them having to produce the new blend to try and win an award which had been denied her. Although this was a necessary element in the overall context of the plot I felt it was a bit twee and overblown in the second half of the movie and it slightly dampened my enthusiasm. Kim's pushy work partner added a bit of spice to the proceedings. But the ending was just lovely and I was left with that feel good factor. If anyone at Hallmark's casting Department happens to be reading this go out and grab Jay Ryan quickly - he's 30 years old and would make a perfect Hallmark hero!" - Florence
