Good Witch

In a cynical world, so often filled with doom and gloom, it makes such a pleasant change to find an upbeat program. With moral tales reminiscent of the Waltons, lashings of romance and a dash of humour; Good Witch is just such a program. One of the things I really like about the storyline is that doesn't rely on the hackneyed 'Will they won't they' cliche. However, I now hear that the plot is going to take a darker turn. I hope that doesn't mean, that Cassie and Sam's relationship ends - I'd stop watching!

Cassie is a magical woman. Not in the tradition of Samantha or Sabrina. It is hard to say that anything that would be considered true magic ever occurs. Cassie does have a habit of appearing out of nowhere, of knowing who is there before she sees them, and of saying just the right thing to make a "coincidence" happen where it is needed. This was true in the movies as in the TV series.

The TV series starts out rather abruptly if you didn't see any or all of the movies. Brandon, Cassie's stepson, is being separated from his wife. Lori has a background of storytelling, if not outright reporting, that leads her back to the town newspaper.

Yes, Cassie is magical in the sense of being a wise and discerning woman who is both beautiful and loving. Cassie is the definition of optimistic. She wants to give everyone a chance, even long past where others would.

The TV series is a welcome addition to the Hallmark lineup after having been a fairly regular annual TV movie tradition.

I have been binge watching this lovely series, having got so fed up with some of the very dark and dismal series I sometimes watch I decided to watch this, it is a lovely gentle nothing nasty happens series which makes a pleasant change, i love all the characters Martha is one of my favourites, only gripe if you can call it that is Sam constantly has his hands in his bloomin' pockets.

I've been binge watching the entire series over the past few weeks and mostly enjoying it. It's nice for once to have some low-key (and completely family friendly) amusement. There's very little Drama and that's a hard thing to find these days. Recommended for light viewing.

Good witch was one of my favorite TV shows. It was calming, soothing, the perfect place to escape from reality for a while. I am so disappointed, that they ruined the seventh season. I miss the old Cassie, her advices, the atmosphere of Bell, book and candle, even the outfits and decorations. I will rewatch time to time the previous seasons and forget what the new writers have done to it.
