Mistletoe Murders

MISTLETOE MURDER: POISON IN A PEAR TREE. Christmas shop owner Emily Lane investigates a murder when a friend is falesly accused of murdering her fiancee. Detective Sam Wilner is investigating the crime and tells Emily to stay out of it, but of course she stays in the hunt in ordervto help her friend. Sam is divorced and he and Emily's relationship is also complicated because his daughter, Violet, works part time in Emily's shop. This mystery is very entertaining, just when you've think you've figured it out, you are thrown another twist and turn. There's also hints and flashback's of Emily's own mysterious past that's a continuing part of the series.

Sarah Drew and Peter Mooney are perfect in the lead roles of the engaging main characters. The supporting roles are also well cast. And as a feline fancier myself, I liked the small role Emily's cats played in her life, it added a fun element. An entertaining mystery and I look forward to the series, and the promise of a possible growing romance between Sam and Emily in future episodes.

My family of girls absolutely adores Hallmark Christmas movies and Hallmark Murder Mysteries. Both genres bring something special into our lives-whether it's the heartwarming charm of a snowy love story or the intriguing suspense of a whodunit. This series was the perfect blend of the two, seamlessly combining everything we love about both genres into one captivating experience. From the very first episode, we were hooked, and the excitement carried us through every twist and turn in the story.

One of the standout features of this series was its ability to keep us on the edge of our seats. Just when we thought we had things figured out, a new layer of mystery would unfold, keeping the tension alive and our curiosity piqued. It wasn't just about the puzzles and the suspense, though. The show had a way of intertwining those thrilling moments with the kind of emotional storytelling that Hallmark is known for. This balance made it feel fresh and exciting without losing that heartwarming touch we cherish.

So, we're left with one request: Please, please, please keep making these! This series brought so much joy, excitement, and connection to our family, and we can't wait to see more. Whether it's a continuation of this story or something new, we'll be there, ready to watch and fall in love all over again. Thank you for giving us a show that brought mystery, romance, and holiday cheer together in the best way possible. We're already counting down the days until the next installment!

These movies are great. Great mysteries about Emily & lots of teases about who she is, Series leaves you hanging, I hate Hallmark made it sound like these are new. I had seen all the episodes before, was hoping for new episodes. It would be worth it for new episodes. Come on Halmark - there are many series with new episodes.

I am really enjoying this one.

There is a lot of chemistry between the two leads, which for me is important. Also, they have some really interesting cast members, such as the guy who used to play the doctor in Stargate, and the woman who used to play Umma in the series Kim's Convenience. It has enough forward-moving plot twists to stay interesting, and of course, it has all of the charm of Hallmark small towns.

I am really hoping there will be a season two and even more seasons going forward.

Hallmark seems to have more success with its mysteries and not giving them plot holes, (versus their love stories).

Hallmark rom-coms and their murder mysteries can be hit or miss, seems like they've had more misses than hits. This one is an exception and looks to be a hit. A movie or TV series always starts with the script, it's what dooms many of them. I'm up to episode 3 and so far the plots, characters and dialog are good.

I like that they're running "Mistletoe Murders" as a series, like the British detective dramas of 3 to 6 episodes, each episode running from 50 minutes to 90 minutes.

The leads Sarah Drew and Peter Mooney are both drama school trained and are very good as is the rest of the cast. It's a shame it's called "Mistletoe Murders", instead of Fletcher Grove Mysteries or something similar, so we could see these characters year around.

I watched all 6 episodes thinking we'd find out more about who Emily Lane really is, but no luck. If it's renewed for a second season, the writers need to reveal Emily Lane's backstory in the first episode, otherwise viewers will start to lose interest in the series.

Watched the first two episodes of Season 2 and I'm happy that it's back. I hope it gets renewed for a season 3 because it's one of the best things Hallmark has produced. Most of Hallmark movies are mediocre and forgettable, not this series. Emily and Sam are a great team.
