Mortal Mishaps

I have been a Hallmark movie fan for many years. I did not find this predictable at all. The acting was decent and definitely on par with all the other Hallmark movies. I am glad to see Hallmark adding more diversity to their movie lineup. Can't wait to watch more episodes in this series!

Holly Robinson Pete is not a very good actress so it's hard to pay attention to the storyline. Pretty mediocre.

I think given the upheaval in today's world, more and more people are turning to Hallmark Channel! I'm not kidding - I've heard a lot of people mention it lately.

Hallmark has a group of series in the Mystery genre, and this is a new one, the Morning Show mysteries, starring Holly Robinson Peete and the always-hunky Rick Fox.

Peete plays Billie Blessings, a successful cookbook author and restaurant owner who has a special segment on the Morning Show. In this episode, one of the executives at the network is poisoned by a cake -- and suspicion falls on Billie. Rather than wait around to be cleared, Billie starts her own investigation.

Benign, pleasant, familiar, all describe these mysteries. No sex, foul language, violence, or unhappy endings. The people are attractive and often include popular tv/Hallmark/soap stars like Allison Sweeney, Cameron Matthison, Kellie Martin, Brooke Shields, Lori Loughlin, etc. For many, this is just what the doctor ordered. Personally I'll watch anything with the word Mystery in it, so there you go.

I love the Hallmark Murder Mystery Movies, but this is my least favorite series. Holly Robinson is not a good actress in this, she is kind of blah. Actually the whole cast is blah except the ones that stared in Murder, She Baked or the others. It needs new life.

6/10 - promising new series from Holly Robinson Peete
