One Bad Apple: A Hannah Swensen Mystery

I've always enjoyed the Hannah Swenson Movies but losing Cameron as Mike has really hurt the series. I don't doubt that the new guy might work out but there just wasn't enough of him in the movie. They need a bit more of a love interest or something to help the story line.

The mystery is ok but it really lacks any main interesting characters. It just feels like they are off their game. I see there's another one coming so maybe it will get better but I'm sad that this one isn't better.

I'll keep watching as I do like these better than a lot of the other mysteries Hallmark has been doing lately.

I actually enjoyed this film. The mystery was quite alright. The characters were enjoyable.

The setting - not so much. The college was too cheesy and fake even for Hallmark.

I know I'm probably the only one, but I didn't miss Mike. Never were a fan of his, he was OK, but nothing more.

Don't mind the new DA, he's quite something. Not sure if I see him as Hannah's boyfriend though. I'd rather watch Delores flirting with him. Don't understand why he was the one to go looking for Hannah with the cop though. He was doing a lot of things that DAs don't really do... Loved Norman being part of a sleuthing team and a proper hero. Not just a dorky admirer.

What I didn't like: still not a fan of Eden Lake being a big city, because it sure looks like one now. And don't understand why we still need another sister when Andrea comes so often (thank God!!!). Bring her husband too!

Hannah looked weird in first scenes, like she did something to her face. Maybe the lighting. Same about Andrea.

Good film anyway.

Yes I miss Cameron Matheson but Hallmark has lost many of the actors tied to key roles. So what do they do? Just drop the whole plot concept? They have to try something else. Maybe they will see what works, what doesn't.

I would at least like to see one more movie and see if they let DA do more. It's so funny because they were so good in several of the movies they did together, husband and wife in Wedding Veil movies. I DO LIKE Norman but he will probably just remain a supportive friend.

I have no problem with her mother or sisters in minor roles. I think her Mom is a riot.

I like appearances by secondary characters, even if they don't have a "meaningful" contribution to each story.

Cameron is not coming back. You no longer want to see any Hannah Swenson mysteries? I do.

I like the Hannah Swenson series starring Allison Sweeney. The films are both fun and energetic.

Cameron Matthison is no longer playing Hannah's boyfriend. There is a new man, though he's yet to be on Hannah's dance card - the new DA, played by Victor Webster. Norman is still around, but as a friend.

Hannah's again working to solve a mystery. She's teaching a baking class, but then the kitchen explodes. Accident?

Then there's a murder, and Hannah starts investigating.

No t enough time in the bakery, those are always fun scenes.

Hannah's mother has decided to become. P. I. The part, played by Barbara Nevins, is completely over the top but a hoot.

This is Hallmark, not Masterpiece Mystery, so take it for what it is.

I've enjoyed all of the Murder She Baked iterations. Love Alison Sweeney, Barbara Nivens, her sisters, Norman, etc. Not liking the new Chad character, have always enjoyed whatever Victor Webster acts in, just not this. The relationship between Hannah and Chad is just too formulaic. It's like the writing is already on the wall. When Murder She Baked began, I wasn't sure I liked Norman, but he's truly grown as a character and he's kind of quirky, goofy, funny and also a stand up guy that Hannah can count on and I really wish that they'd expand upon that relationship. Absolutely adored Barbara Nivens as a PI.
