‘Signed, Sealed, Delivered’ Is Back!
POstables, it’s finally here! The latest installment in Hallmark’s longest-running movie franchise — “Signed, Sealed, Delivered: A Tale of Three Letters” — premieres on Hallmark Mystery on Friday, July 12 at 9 p.m. Eastern time. The whole crew is back — Yan-Kay Crystal Lowe, Kristin Booth, Eric Mabius, Geoff Gustafson, and even Rhiannon Fish — thanks to so many fans writing in and pleading for SSD to continue. In the newest movie, Hallmark says “The POstables are back identifying the intended recipients of a trio of dead letters which have a surprising, personal impact on all of them.”
Hallmark Channel Premiere: ‘Rescuing Christmas’
You can’t go wrong with a Rachael Leigh Cook rom-com — and this Saturday, July 13 at 8 p.m. Eastern time, her 2023 holiday movie, “Rescuing Christmas,” makes its Hallmark Channel debut. The fun flick, co-starring Sam Page, was only available on Hallmark Now last year. The synopsis from Hallmark reads: “After being granted three wishes by Santa, Erin Smithson inadvertently erases Christmas from history. After realizing what a huge mistake she’s made, Erin sets out to bring it back with the help from her brother-in-law’s coworker Sam.”
