The Way Home

I really like it!

The characters are complex and likable. It's so nostalgic, and I love it! Small home town, mistery, family drama. It's about forgiveness, trauma, redemption, reconnecting. The psychology and mystic of this all was very well thought.

The story is very intriguing. Give this one a try. I hope te next episodes continue to unfold a lot more to what happened.

Sad that I won't be able to binge watch it! Chyler Leigh is so traumatized but you feel empathy for her. The grandmother, she is complex, but warm and nurturing, I love the science teacher... and the daughter, Alice, what a special actress. You will love Alice by the second episode. So sweet!

I honestly think The Way Home is the best Hallmark series I have seen and especially so in recent years. Hallmark has become more and more predictable. This particular series strays from that and it is truly refreshing. The ongoing mystery of the show and the cast makes for a full blown hit. I have looked forward to watching the show each week as well as to the upcoming 2nd season.

First, the storyline is very entertaining as it really is a mystery of what has happened with The Landry Family and friends from past to present. Where will the infamous pond take Kat and/or her daughter Alice each week? Who is involved in all of the years, what happened and how? Is the brother/son still alive and if so in what time frame? The time switch of the same characters adds a true interest that is not often seen in other series. Seriously, the show really holds your attention!

Also, the dynamics between the characters are very entertaining to watch. Elliot is by far my favorite with his quick wit, intelligence, sensitivity and very responsive facial expressions. I love him! He adds interest to the mostly troubled character of Kat. You look forward to seeing where their relationship may or may not go. Kat's daughter, Alice, and her mother, Del, do not disappoint with their storyline and their interactions with each other. Each week they seem to evolve more as the story continues.

Thank you to the actors, writers and ALL who is involved in this interesting show. You have made a successful series, no doubt!

With the mother (Kat, played by Chyler Leigh - you'll recognize her as Supergirl's sister, but less annoying in this role) and daughter Alice both suddenly at loose ends, a surprising note arrives, which seems to be from Kat's mother Del (the lovely Andie MacDowell who elevates the show with her presence and gifted talents) telling her it's time to come home. Kat and Alice are displaced in short order and wind up in a small town where everyone knows everything, and you suspect that before long, everyone's problems will be sorted, like laundry that just gets done on a farm.

If this sounds like many other shows you've already seen, it's not. A bit of fantasy is woven into this family/small town 'drama' which makes the whole thing way less formulaic and more surprising than you can possibly imagine. Indeed, the fantasy element, combined with the picturesque setting, some decent writing and MacDowell's involvement, makes this watchable, even for folks who are NEVER-Hallmarkers. A family oriented show, sure, but...given the twist, I don't know WHAT to expect next, and that...is a VERY VERY good thing.

I was so pleasantly surprised after my friend urged me to watch this and I did. This show is still heartwarming but it's also modern and fun and full of twists that keep you guessing in each episode. I still don't know how the story will connect us back to the woman in the white nightgown in the opening episode but I pick up clues in every new episode. I love that! I've been watching g the shows over again to get new clues each time. The acting and the writing and great and I can't wait to see where this show goes in this season and future ones. Don't cancel this Hallmark! You have something good.

Really good plot with a bit of mystery. Enjoying this new storyline from hallmark. I am not typically a hallmark person but am loving this series. Not hard to follow but don't skip any episodes otherwise confusion and questions set in and you will have to go back and watch lol. Has time travel involved which is interesting. I hope it doesn't give too much too soon. I've recommended to several friends. This is not your woman gets dumped or fired and goes back home to save family business type of hallmark show or anything like their other series. Don't miss this series! Watch it! I can't wait to see how it plays out!
