BEVERLY HILLS, CA – July 27, 2017 – Hallmark Movies & Mysteries, the premiere television destination for thrilling mysteries, will present a slate of new, original world premiere movies for its upcoming program schedule. Cable television’s fastest-growing network unveiled plans for new movie installments of its returning popular mystery franchises, along with two newly developed deals: one with Al Roker (“Today”) that stars Holly Robinson Peete (“Chicago Fire,” “Angel of Christmas”) and one with crisis management expert, Judy Smith. The announcement was made today as part of Crown Media Family Networks’ bi-annual TV Critics Association Press Tour.
Viewers will be treated to more of their favorite mysteries with new installments of “Garage Sale Mystery” starring Lori Loughlin (“Fuller House”); “Aurora Teagarden” starring Candace Cameron Bure (“Fuller House”) and Marilu Henner (“Taxi”); “Gourmet Detective” starring Dylan Neal (Fifty Shades of Grey) and Brooke Burns (“The Chase”); “Signed, Sealed, Delivered” starring Eric Mabius (“Ugly Betty”), Kristin Booth (“Orphan Black”), Crystal Lowe (“Primeval: New
World”) and Geoff Gustafson (“Rogue”); “Hailey Dean Mysteries” starring Kellie Martin (“ER,” “The Guest Book”) and “Fixer Upper Mysteries” starring Grammy Award nominee Jewel and Colin Ferguson (“The Vampire Diaries”).Building on these audience favorites, Hallmark Movies & Mysteries will release new, original world premieres. These highly anticipated mysteries include “Darrow & Darrow” (working title) from Emmy Award ® Winner Phoef Sutton (“Cheers,” “Boston Legal”) starring Kimberly Williams-Paisley (“Father of the Bride”), Tom Cavanagh (“The Flash,” “Ed”) and Wendie Malick (“Hot in Cleveland”) and “The Midnight Show Murders,” based on the book penned by Al Roker and Dick Lochte, which will star Holly Robinson Peete. Also new to the network is the original world premiere movie “The Adjuster,” which is loosely based on the real-life experiences and professional work of Judy Smith, crisis management expert and inspiration for the TV series “Scandal.”
Viewers have made Hallmark Movies & Mysteries the home for mysteries on cable television, as reflected in a raise in ratings continuing in 2017. The second quarter of 2017 tied the fourth quarter of 2016 as the network’s highest quarter ever among Total Day HH delivery, and the Hallmark Movies & Mysteries Original Movie Premieres during that quarter were up year over year by +59% among W25-54. Most recently, June 2017 became the network’s highest June in history among Total Day HH, W18-49, A18-49, A25-54, and Total Viewer delivery, and became Hallmark Movies & Mysteries’ second highest month ever behind an astronomical December 2016 among Total Day HH delivery.*
“Our viewers have really responded to the suspense, sleuthing and thrills in our original movies, and we are excited to deliver even more high quality mystery content through the rest of the year and in to 2018,” said Michelle Vicary, Executive Vice President, Programming and Network Publicity, Crown Media Family Networks. “We know they will love the new installments of their favorite franchises and are confident that they’ll embrace the new mysteries we have in store.”

I am so happy that Signed, Sealed, Delivered will be returning in 2018. The series and now the movies (8 already) — keep them coming — they are excellent! The acting is great and the writing is excellent. Yeah, Ms. Williamson! I like the idea that every episode/movie has an underlying current of something of a moral fiber in a very positive way. I have the movies on DVD and slip one in the DVD player and slip away to the world of SDD where life is simpler and love is paramount! Just love Oliver, Shane, Rita and Norman. Oliver’s… Read more »
I am very pleased that signed, sealed, & delivered will be continuing. They are my favorite movies. Thank you for developing more. We need more movies that are clean like these are.
Brilliant… many many more are needed, it is quirky, interesting, the stories hold up extremely well, I know at some time the research for new story lines must get stretched, But, please keep trying…………
My husband and I are great fans of signed sealed delivered. We look forward to all the movies and how you carry on until ask get married and have families. Wonderful movies.
I so hope that they continue to make 2 hour movies of this show. I work for the post office and they r pretty much down to the T with how they do things work wise. I just have my fingers crossed that they keep making shows of this because every time a good show is made these network people usually cancel a good thing and leave on these dumb comedy shows that r not funny, so I hope this one keeps going. They have great actors that play the parts in this show also.
I’ve enjoyed the previous episodes of SS&D but I was totally hooked on this new episode! The actors are perfectly cast and it seems like they mesh so well. I keep thinking that Oliver is going to pop the question to Shane at any time. I just Love the stories!
