Vous avez un message: en route vers le mariage

Always good to see the Postables. They changed the intro song... blech.

Mostly good, Rita has begun wedding planning, Norman & Shane are harboring secrets...

Oliver leads the crew to find what they think is a little boy that has been abducted. The gang ventures out in the RV, literally all they are missing is Scooby! To solve the mystery... What they find is of course not what they expected! One should never assume. I would think they would have learnt that by now.

Good - not the best of the bunch.

The most shocking thing might have been Norman's change in style!

A basic detective movie heavily flawed by stereotypes and political correctness. This is yet another movie stereotyping intelligent people "nerds" as unable to fix cars or have normal relations with women. The movie promotes political correctness by describing the adoption of a "rainbow family" against the capability of a couple having their own family. This is certainly a fantasy not based in reality. The movie uses stereotyping and political correctness to deflect from the lack of substance in the main story.

The postables team receives an old disposable camera in the mail with what they think is evidence of a missing or abducted child. This sets them on a journey across Colorado in Rita's parents' RV following a photo trail left by a nine year old boy. Norman and Rita are engaged...and according to some fashion magazine they are way behind on the 100 things you should do before your wedding. On the journey, Rita and Norman with Shane and Oliver's help work to catch up.

There are a lot of big revelations in this episode of Signed, Sealed and Delivered...including that Norman does not have a driver's license (and consequently will not be able to drive the RV on their honeymoon). While on their road adventure Oliver gives Norman a driving lesson in the RV, the musical choice was spectacular! "Born to be wild"..."Get you motor running, head out on the highway..." IT was great. Shane had a little surprise of her own, which rattled Oliver...but ultimately lead to their relationship being stronger.

"In our line of work, this is what we call an Unattached item and we never give up"-Oliver.

"that child didn't just drop a camera in the mail, he mailed a piece of hope"-Shane.

"Norman, you are not that boy in High school, you just took a little longer to be appreciated."-Rita.

This was a sweet entry in the series with some relationship and pre-wedding fun with the entire postables group.

If you enjoy the series awkward characters and all, you will enjoy this entry as well.

If you're familiar with any of the other Signed Sealed Delivered recent movies, you know these have seen their share of ups and downs. From annoying characters, to cheesy story lines, it seemed hard to hold this together and still keep the plot moving forward. The Road Less Traveled took us on a very laid back journey, giving us the characters we know and love, yet portraying them out of their comfort zone and still true to themselves. Full of multi-layered conversations (which kept us chuckling quietly to ourselves), to the subtleties of every scene, we gained a deeper insight into how important truly listening matters. Was it a little sappy? Yes. But over here, that's to be expected--- and a welcome relief from the darkness we usually receive in most TV shows. I think that's why I'm glad this isn't a series any more. It helped to avoid cheapening the story and kept the characters real when SSD switched to separate movies...and this could be one of the best decisions HM ever made.

7.8 stars.

They are still bringing their best to the table, these lovable Postables. I enjoyed this episode about as much as any, it's good, not the best one, not the worst, right in the middle.

As the story goes, the gang decides to hit the road in an old RV that was given to Rita by her parents as a present for their wedding (or they borrowed it, I'm not sure).

During this road trip, we have emotional ups and downs regarding wedding preparations, and Norman isn't quite ready to get married, but his reasons are pure. Rita is there to reach out and touch his heart to help him get ready for being a good husband and father (potentially). Norman is hesitant to ever have children, he doesn't want them being bullied as he was.

Shane and Oliver hit the usual minor speed bumps in their ongoing relationship, but that's what keeps the audience coming back for more. Gotta maintain the tension.

And of course, there is a plot regarding lost mail and helping a little boy and his mother who are in danger and meandering aimlessly across the state of Colorado.

Another great watch. Still consistently good material.
