Country at Heart

Credit: Crown Media

Struggling Nashville musician Shayna is on the verge of giving up on her career and returns to her small-town home, when a chance encounter with prolific songwriter Grady changes everything. He’s trying writing a song for country music star Duke Sterling and Shayna seems like the perfect writing partner. The two grow closer and romance blooms as they work on their love song, but when Shayna meets Duke, who takes a liking to her and asks her to be his opening act, it undermines everything she and Grady created and Shayna feels forced to choose between love and possible stardom.

Christmas Sneak Peek:

As I mentioned above, we've been waiting a WHOLE YEAR for the premiere of "Country at Heart!" It was originally supposed to premiere last year during Fall Harvest, but was postponed. Then with film production shut down in the spring due to the virus and with fewer movies to air, Hallmark gave us a new premiere date for this movie in June, but that date, too, was removed from their schedule suddenly.

Now... can you believe it? - third times a charm! - we are finally going to see "Country at Heart" THIS WEEKEND, the third new movie premiere for Fall Harvest, 2020!!! I sure hope you all are able to watch "Country at Heart" Saturday night or set your DVR.

*Please Note: As a pre-caution, I just want to let you know - I have not previewed the new movies above; therefore, I don't know, yet, if they will be 100% family friendly. Please use your own discretion when watching and if you see any content of concern, please share in comments below. Based on the information and trailers we've been given, I'm hopeful these movies will be good ones!

Also, to all of my followers here... please be safe as you go about your weekend, especially if you have to be out and about amongst people. My prayers go out to President Trump and our First Lady, who have the coronavirus and everyone who has this horrible disease. May they all, I pray, have a quick and speedy recovery. I have had several family members go through it, and I am very thankful to say they are all well now, but I know that's sadly not been the case for so many. My heart certainly goes out to those who've lost dear family and friends during this pandemic.

Take Care, Everyone.
Blessings to you all, Net

SHARING HIS LOVE:

“LORD my God, I called to you for help,

and you healed me.”

— Psalm 30:2

Hope you enjoy these Christmas movies this week!

I am always elated to see an encore airing of "Hearts of Christmas" on Hallmark Movies & Mysteries! There is just so much to love about this story - from the tiny little babies, to the witty banter, a very fun mention of "It's a Wonderful Life," terrific ensemble cast - which includes the POstables ("Signed, Sealed, Delivered" fans) with Crystal Lowe (Rita) and the Hearties ("When Calls the Heart" fans) with Chris McNally (Lucas). Plus, the romance that develops between Emilie Ullerup & Kristoffer Polaha's characters always touches the heart!

On Friday night, we are in for a treat with "Christmas at Dollywood" starring two more Hallmark favorites - Danica McKellar & Niall Matter! Will they be able to plan the big annual Christmas event and have the Christmas Tree of Many Colors lit in time? This is a delightfully fun, family-friendly movie that might just make you want to get out your cowboy boots and do a little line dancing!

------------ End of Press Release --------------

Looks like these 5 new Christmas movies on UPtv - will be cheerful and UPlifting!

If you love the outdoor country life, you are going to enjoy "Christmas on the Range," starring Erin Cahill. I have previewed this movie and it has a "J.L. Family Ranch" feel to it.

I am looking forward to seeing "Mistletoe Magic," simply because it looks lighthearted and fun, and it stars Jessica Sipos ("Chesapeake Shores") and Stephen Huszar ("A Homecoming for the Holidays") and I can't wait to see the other premieres, too, including the third musical installment in the "A Very Country Christmas" series!

Which Christmas movie are you looking forward to seeing?

🔎 WHERE to SEE 👀 the LAST "GARAGE SALE MYSTERY" MOVIE starring Lori Loughlin - NEVER SEEN on TV! 🔎 GET THE SCOOP HERE:

Finding this gem felt like unearthing a hidden treasure!

Did you know... the final "Garage Sale Mystery" movie, that was NEVER SEEN on TV on Hallmark Movies & Mysteries, has been released on DVD at Amazon and Walmart?

The movie is titled "Garage Sale Mystery: Search and Seized." I was so excited to see this DVD when it became available, I instantly placed it in my Amazon cart and checked it out without hesitation. I've seen ALL 15 previous "Garage Sale Mystery" movies, so I just had to see this one, too!

I know we all have different feelings on what occurred with Lori Loughlin and the college scandal, but she has apologized and had her day in court. Lori has had to face great criticism in the press (and social media) for what happened and as a supporter of her acting work in the past, my heart is telling me to extend grace and forgiveness. I can only hope and pray she and her family have grown from this whole experience.

Unfortunately, the last "Garage Sale Mystery" movie the cast was filming in March of 2019 when production ended, "Garage Sale Mystery: Three Little Murders," only had one more week to film and was not completed.

"Garage Sale Mystery: Search and Seized," however, had fortunately finished just weeks before, and the plan initially was for it to premiere on Hallmark Movies & Mysteries in August of 2019, but that was before the college scandal was revealed and the original plans obviously changed. So, instead of this movie premiering on Hallmark, it was instead released on DVD. Like most Hallmark mysteries, "Garage Sale Mystery: Search and Seized" involves an investigation surrounding a murder. The DVD package has a recommendation on it for "mature audiences" due to mature themes and violence. If you've seen past "Garage Sale Mystery" movies, it was actually no different than those. In my opinion, I would not recommend any murder mystery for really young viewers.

As I popped my DVD in, I personally just loved seeing Lori Loughlin as Jennifer Shannon, once again, and all of the other wonderful familiar faces - her best friend and business partner, Dani (Sarah Strange), Jennifer's husband Jason (Steve Bacic), daughter Hannah (Eva Bourne), son Logan (Connor Stanhope), and Detective Frank Lynwood (Kevin O’Grady). Seeing all of them in those same roles felt like visiting old friends; it was great fun to welcome them into my home again. It may sound silly, but I didn't want the movie to end, knowing it was the very end of the series.

This is the basic story-line from the DVD cover:
(NO Spoilers included!)

"No one can unearth a bargain quite like Jennifer Shannon (Lori Loughlin).

As an antiques dealer and owner of the shop 'Rags to Riches', she scours garage sales in search of hidden treasures. The only problem is her incredible eye for detail often leads her to an unsolved crime - and into trouble!

With the help of her family, her business partner Dani, and no-nonsense Detective Frank Lynwood, Jenn uses all of her professional skills to solve the mysteries, even if it puts her own life in danger.

In the final installment - Searched & Seized - Jenn's friend Miles is running a police auction that features items seized in a money counterfeiting operation, but when Miles turns up dead, Jenn suspects he may have gotten involved with criminals to solve his debt problems."

Having this movie as part of my "Garage Sale Mystery" DVD collection now - makes it feel complete. Numerous movie fans have expressed to me - how much they would love Hallmark to pick the series back up where it ended. I don't know what their plans are, if any, but I feel Hallmark should give Lori Loughlin a second chance and bring her back on the network. Many viewers still love her and would warmly welcome her back to "When Calls the Heart" as Abigail Stanton and, of course, "Garage Sale Mysteries!"

"Searched & Seized" is an intriguing who-dun-it story weaved together with all sorts of puzzling prospects and possible suspects. The mystery was so detailed - I was guessing until the very thrilling end, although I had a hunch or two!

The Shannon family was also wonderfully involved with this story as Logan and his father purchased a Mustang at the local Police Auction and were working to restore it and follow their own mystery search. Jenn, of course, found herself deeply involved in the murder mystery of her friend and piecing together all of the clues.

You can get your DVD copy of "Garage Sale Mystery: Search and Seized" TODAY at Amazon or Walmart! If you've enjoyed all of the "Garage Sale Mystery" movies in the past, then you won't want to miss this LAST one!

You can even buy the complete collection of ALL 16 Garage Sale Mysteries in one DVD set at Amazon!

Happy Sleuthing, Everyone! Blessings, Net
