If you’ve been looking forward to the return of the Good Witch TV show on Hallmark Channel, you’ll want to adjust your calendar. The supernatural drama series had been set to return on Sunday, May 5th. Hallmark now says that Good Witch will return on Sunday, June 9th at 8 p.m.. Another episode will air on Monday, June 10th at 8 p.m. with the rest of the installments airing on Sundays. The series will take a break in July and season five will wrap on August 18th (see below for details).
It appears that the rescheduling of Good Witch is due to Hallmark’s decision to pull and rework the remaining episodes of season six of When Calls the Heart. That series returns on Good Witch’s former premiere date, May 5th.
Here’s the press release:
MORE MAGICAL ADVENTURES AWAIT VIEWERS IN SEASON FIVE OF ‘GOOD WITCH’ PREMIERING JUNE 9 ON HALLMARK CHANNEL

I love Good Witch was disappointed it didn’t start in May. I will be eagerly waiting for June.
I love the Good witch can’t wait for it to start, I wish the series ran longer and I hope there is many more seasons to come
Do I intend to watch the upcoming season of The Good Witch – oh, yes. I look forward to this series every season. My only regret is that the season does not last longer. I hope the series will continue in years to come for viewing. Good story line, nice setting and wonderful actors in roles just right for them all.
Love, love, Love it! Disappointed in the delay but will be watching for sure.
Enjoy watching “The Good Witch” eagerly waiting for it’s return. These are wonderful characters that play their parts well.
So happy the show was not cancelled leaving us all in suspense about the “ Wedding “.
It does seem odd watching the Cassie character, on the W network in a Hallmark movie with another guy and daughter?
Weird to get your head around if you are a faithful viewer of The Good Witch.
I love the Good Witch series and look forward to its return.
Absolutely I will be watching. Can’t wait!!
Love Good Witch. Waiting for more. Always feel better after watching
I love Good Witch, it is a new paradigm for television to have a show that is focused on mindfulness, kindness, thoughtfulness, being creative when dealing with difficult people and situations by actually pointing them in a positive direction. Kudos to Hallmark for this show, I hope it stays on the air for years.
