We’re planning out our fall and Hallmark keeps adding more for us to watch. We’re not complaining at all. We like having a plan and a plan keeps us going. Especially this time of year – Countdown to Christmas time.
Mistletoe Murders has a date. October 31st to be exact. The six episode series will be debuting on Hallmarks new streaming service, Hallmark+.
“We’re excitedly dipping our toe in the Christmas Noir space by bringing Hallmark’s cozy mystery viewers a holiday murder mystery for the first time,” Kelly Garrett, VP, Programming, Hallmark Media, said in a statement. “This deftly layered story is based on the beloved Audible Original series by Ken Cupurus and will take us deeper into who our characters are and will give the audience fun new twists and turns.”
The series follows Emily Lane (Sarah Drew), “the outwardly friendly, and optimistic shop owner of a charming year-round Christmas-themed store, Under the Mistletoe. However, her inner voice reveals a sardonic sense of humor, cunning intellect, and keen eye for details most people would miss…because Emily has a big secret. Residing in the quaint tourist town of Fletcher’s Grove, Emily finds herself compelled to investigate not-so-quaint local murders. And when Emily begins her personal investigations, Detective Sam Wilner (Mooney), a smart local cop – with a crush on Emily that is not completely unrequited – begins to wonder if there’s more to Emily than meets the eye.”
In addition to Drew, the series also stars newcomer Sierra Marilyn Riley, Jean Yoon, Lara Amersey, Kylee Evans and David Hewlett.
In addition the show has some great guest stars this season including Tom Cavanagh, Jake Epstein and Steven Lund.
