Victor Webster has long been one of our favorite actors, and when he joined the Hannah Swensen Hallmark mystery franchise, we couldn't have been more excited. We sat down with Victor and talked about joining Hannah, Delores, and the rest of the gang as the newest cast member, DA Chad Norton. 

But we couldn't let Victor come on the podcast and not discuss Summer Villa, quite possibly the best Hallmark movie of all time. 

So sit back, pour a cup of tea, and enjoy getting to know Victor Webster. 

Reality Bites: A Hannah Swensen Mystery starring Alison Sweeney, Victor Webster, Gabriel Hogan, and Barbara Niven will premiere on Hallmark Mysteries on February 6th.

In our weekly dive into the pond, we discuss the 5th episode of The Way Home, Reeling in the Years. After a week of optimism after the 4th episode, this one took a huge step backward with conflicts that don't make sense, plots that are going who knows where, and back to time travel rule-breaking. 

We are left asking the question, does anyone like Kat?

Then we discussed The Spencer Sisters, which we thought we would agree. But we didn't. Andrea gets triggered over the mother/daughter bickering, which is one of the main reasons Eric enjoys the show. But we also had a difference of opinions on the actual mystery.

The time has come to conclude our breakdown of the Gourmet Detective series as we discuss Roux the Day. Henry and Maggie are firmly cemented in their relationship in this movie as they return to the show's roots with an epicurean mystery. 

We also get more of Henry's dad, as their restaurant is key to solving the mystery. 

And since this was the final episode, we each ranked all five mysteries from our "least" favorite to our favorite. 

Lastly, Andrea played a fun, elaborate, sleuther game called Unsolved Case Files where you get a box full of clues and have to crack the case. To learn more https://www.unsolvedcasefiles.com/

It's time for our weekly dive into the pond. While we have not been loving The Way Home for a while, this episode transported us back to our Season One vibes. A lot of the confusion of who can time travel was explained in this episode, and we finally have a sense of what is going on. Are we all the way back in? Maybe not. 

The off to The Spencer Sisters Episode 4, The Restaurantuer's Ruin. We are loving this series and the characters. Eric is a little more due to his Gen X crush on Lea Thompson.  While we may have disagreed on the core quality of the mystery, we both loved the unraveling of the mystery.

We discuss the fourth Gourmet Detective movie, Eat Drink, and Be Buried. The episode starts with a hilarious mix-up that turns deadly. We also saw a very young Chris McNally and our recent guest, Lucie Guest, in an acting role. 

We are treated to more sizzling chemistry between Henry and Maggie. We also glimpse Henry's back story as we meet his dad. 

The mystery may not have been our favorite, but the character development shines and the sleuthing is great.

In this episode, we break down a couple of 3rd episodes. 

First, we discuss what is going on with the pond on the Landry farm in The Way  Home S3 EP3. As this season unfolds, we are left with more questions than answers. And not the good type of questions. The magic of the pond was once unique and intriguing but now seems to be universal knowledge. Couple that with plot holes that seem to be arising from everyone's time-traveling, and you get what is shaping up to be a mess. 

Then we move on to the delightful mystery series on Hallmark Plus, The Spenser Sisters. The mother-daughter chemistry is off the charts, making the show absolutely delightful. The writing is snappy, and the acting is impressive. While we can't wait to get out of the pond, we are practicing self-restraint to keep from binging the entire series in one sitting.

In this double episode, our friend Dara from Dear Hallmark stopped by to help us break down the second episode of The Spencer Sisters. While the first episode showed much promise, did the second one maintain that enthusiasm or were we disappointed?  Dara and Eric love Victoria, and Andrea is a little more reserved in her excitement. But one thing we all agreed on: this series is fun!

And, of course, we jump into the pond and discuss the second episode of Season 3 of the Way Home. A whole lot is going on as the gang travels back to 1974. And it seems we are getting way more questions than answers. It seems everyone has been time traveling and the rules of time travel are being stretched. Plus, some major questions are brought up about an entire plot line of season 1. Is it good and intriguing or just annoying?

To find a hotter director over the past few Countdown to Christmas seasons than Jeff Beesley would be hard. He has directed The Santa Summitt, Never Been Chris'ed, Miracle in Bethlehem, Carol for Two, Christmas on Call, and Follow Yonder Star. 

But he is not just a Christmas director, having directed the recent Haunted Wedding as well as the all-time great Love Strikes Twice. He even directed a mystery, To Catch a Spy in Malta.

In this episode, we dive into the second installment of the Gourmet Detective series, A Healthy Place to Die. While we both love the series, this is Andrea's favorite because it takes place at a wellness retreat. 

We learned from our interview with Dylan Neal that this was supposed to be the 3rd mystery, but Hallmark canceled the second one and bumped A Healthy Place to Die up to that slot.

This created a bit of a conundrum as Henry and Maggie headed off to spend the weekend at the resort together after just recently meeting. Did they pull it off without seeming weird? Listen and find out.
