ABOUT DOUBLE SCOOPNora and James were once the dream team at a top New York ad agency, but now they're locked in a frosty competition for the sweetest client of all: a small-town dairy farm that churns out the most delectable ice cream in the country.AIR DATE & NETWORK FOR DOUBLE SCOOP:August 23, 2025 | Hallmark ChannelCAST & CREW OF DOUBLE SCOOP:Taylor Cole as NoraRyan McPartlin as JamesPatrick Muldoon as EverettJacklyn Collier as ShannonBRAN'S DOUBLE SCOOP SYNOPSIS:Nora is a hotshot advertiser who brings her boss, Alexandra, a cake for her birthday. Alexandra left their previous company, H Company, to start a rival firm. Nora's closest teammate—and rival—James chose to stay behind, and now he's up for the potential Vice President role.Nora goes out to dinner with her pregnant friend Jacks, who insists they stop at her favorite ice cream spot, Darlington Dairy. Nora tries it, is blown away, and wonders why she's never heard of it before. (Good question, Nora.)Meanwhile, James' boss tells him the VP role is between him and Lavery. Whoever brings in the hottest new client within the next two weeks gets the job.The next day, Nora and James bump into each other. She drops her bag, and it's full of ice cream. She lies, saying it's for the office, when in reality, she's eyeing Darlington Dairy as a client. Unfortunately for her, she leaves a carton behind, and James scoops it up. He brings it to his boss and claims the idea as his own.Soon enough, both Nora and James are on planes to Wisconsin to meet the owners. By coincidence, they're staying at the same inn, in neighboring rooms. Their paths officially collide when they both show up to take the owners to dinner. Classic double booking. Naturally, they all dine together.After dinner, Nora and James lay down some ground rules: no sabotage, no scarfing down ice cream to win favor, and both present their pitches—the best pitch wins. (Which, let's be honest, feels like the only rule that should matter.)The next morning, Nora's car won't start. Turns out it's an EV, and she forgot to charge it. James offers her a ride.From there, they spend more time together—working on the farm, sharing late nights. One sleepless evening leads to a romantic night under the stars, surrounded by fireflies.One day, James chats with the mayor and learns the town is running out of funding for local farms. He pitches to his boss that they donate money to help, and his boss loves the idea—especially since the owners will surely be impressed.Nora sees James meeting with the mayor and grows suspicious, though she's also starting to genuinely enjoy his company.At the town's ice cream festival, the mayor announces the new farmers' fund in front of everyone. Nora is furious—she feels James is bribing the owners.Finally, pitch day arrives. The owners choose James.Back at the office, James learns his boss called ahead and warned the owners against working with Alexandra. Disgusted, he quits.Later, Nora discovers the owners called her instead—they're going with her after all, because they found out James walked away.She goes to see James, who reveals Alexandra offered him a job. He'll only take it if it's okay with her, because he's madly in love with her and doesn't want anything to come between them again. They kiss—and kiss some more.

While they're talking, Cora's best friend Suzette comes out and sees Agon poof away. She freaks out and Liam comes clean about angels and that he's here on an important mission. The next day, Liam discovers that the shock is gone which he immediately celebrates by hugging Cora and staring madly into his love. Agon shows back up to talk to Liam and finds out about Suzette. He convinces Agon that this is good, Suzette can help with the mission and he agrees. Cora begins to work with DA Finn on a case to try to get information from one of his clients. This dude doesn't wanna talk to Cora becasue she's a cop. So he talks to Finn in private. Next thing you know, Finn is in a seedy bar playing billiards and Cora is not pleased by this because she thinks Finn is doing that guy a favor. So she leaves with Magnus who also happens to show up. While in the car, he gets a call from someone named Edith. He acts weird which she finds suspicious. Agon is doing research to figure out with Magnus is sent by Bael from the other side but turns out he's just a bad guy who was being investigated as a cop and decided to just quit. She begins to suspect that Magnus is in deep with bad people and maybe is connected to Meredith from the last special event. So she offers to come to his place. While that's happening, Liam and Finn are hanging out for some bro time and he's like there's nothing between me and Cora, you should go for it brother. They figure out that she's at Magnus's house and they rush to get there.Magnus pulls a gun on Cora after she discovers a bag of money under his bed.

I literally screamed. Liam is pulled into a room by Agon and is told that the reason that Cora has to end up with Finn is to start a 501c3 and she needs a good guy by her side or that non-profit won't be formed. So he goes and tells Finn that she's all his. He looks at her one last time and walks away. Fade to white.

But does the movie deliver on its high-concept premise?Andrea admits to being underwhelmed on her first viewing, citing pacing issues and character overload—but a partial second watch starts to shift her opinion. Eric, having seen all three films, urges patience, emphasizing the trilogy structure and how much richer the story becomes with context. They break down the movie's ambitious narrative structure, the distinct visual styles across time periods, and that now-infamous love triangle twist that left some viewers with emotional whiplash.Plus, they spotlight standout characters (hello, Angels Egon and Samal!), debate whether this really qualifies as a time-travel movie, and share behind-the-scenes trivia, including cold stunts filmed in freezing Vancouver and an intentional wink to The Way Home.

Send us a textEric and Andrea dig into the first Golden Girls–branded cozy, unpacking how a date gone wrong in a hotel freezer collides with Rose's over-the-top St. Olaf–themed wedding week—cheesecake, snobbery, and all. They flag that this opener reads like “Book 1” in a series and centers Rose more than Dorothy, with Sophia and Blanche taking a back seat this round.    The verdict: fans of the show's rhythms and in-jokes will likely vibe with the voices (Rose's Minnesota quirks, Sophia's purse-and-punchlines energy), the 80s/90s nostalgia, and the VHS-dating cringe that feels perfectly on brand. As a mystery, it's unmistakably cozy: light stakes, a clean twist both hosts admired, and an ending Eric found a bit too “silly” even if the reveal lands.      They split on craft: Andrea thought the character voices and structure worked; Eric felt the prose had a self-published sheen and pointed to print-format hiccups others noticed (typos and odd paragraph breaks). Still, both agree it scratches the Golden Girls itch and sets the table for future installments.    Highlights include a spoiler-free Mystery Minute on the twist, a quick Romance Roundup (Dorothy's ill-fated date plus wedding mayhem), and Character Corner picks—Dorothy for propelling the plot; Sophia for her blunt, tender beats. They wrap with “Hallmark & Chill” read-alikes like The Thursday Murder Club and pancake-house cozies for listeners craving more feather-light sleuthing between cheesecake slices.      If you love the show's cadence and want a cheerful, low-stakes whodunit with plenty of lanai-level banter, this one's a sweet bite to start the series.Follow us on social media: Instagram and TikTok: @hallmarkmysteriesandmoreYoutubeOr visit our website.

Watch on Philo! - Philo.tv/DTHOn this season of The Way Home, it starts with someone running through the woods. I kid I kid. This couple is running through the wood, rocking old timey garb, as they're chased with people. That doesnt stop them from hiding behind a tree for a kissssss. They get back to running and she trips over a rock and falls off a cliff as her boo thang yells CORAAAAAA. She keeps falling until she lands ... in present day into her bed. She jerks awake thanks to her alarm and gets ready for the day in her house that is currently being remodeled. Cora is a cop, now detective, and she goes to get coffee and bumps into Assistant DA Finn who is more a tea guy. He congratulates her on her promotion and offers to buy her lunch so they can talk about her new case. She gets to her new case - a jewelry store burglary. As she works with the owner to figure out what's been taken, one item sticks out to her - a necklace that shoots her back into her dream right before she dies. She's wearing the necklace as her boo thing says he'll love her in every lifetime. Boo thing Liam is snagged up by the the bad guys. Suddenly, Liam is zapped to an all white room and these angels give him the run down - he's been in limbo for 200 years. Limbo is closing and he has to earn his place in heaven. How so? Help Cora, who has been reincarnated, end up with her true soul mate - Finn. See, Liam is a thief. He's stolen a lot including Cora who he stole from her fated mate. Now he has a chance to make it right. Suddenly, he's zapped into modern day. He has a badge and he finds out that he's been brought in from Portland by his buddy Chief Boyd who he recognizes from his past life. Body wants him to help out a rookie detective. I wonder who that could be. Liam is very confused by trying to figure things out as he goes until Boyd brings him to the jewelry store and he locks eyes with Detective Cora which is shocking to him because she's a women. She asks if they've met and he says not in this lifetime. We see some flashbacks that show that Liam met Cora when he broke into her fancy family's house. It's pretty clear that in modern time, Finn & Clara are diggin each other, so what can Liam even do? Especially since he gets shock every time they touch. Liam ends up moving into Cora's guest house. What could go wrong? Turns out a ton because before they go to this fundraising dance together, she asks him to zip up her dress. Boy oh boy. We get another flash back to a time that he saw her through a window at a dance. She comes out and tells him that she's betrothed to Finn. She asks what he was going to steal that night he broke in. He looks at her necklace. She gives it to him and they almost kiss but she gets called back in. In this flashback, he comes across a dead body of this dude named John.He believes that this is going to happen again in present day, so he goes to get a ride with a girl, Meredith, who is hot for him despite being married to John, to try to stop the murder.While he's gone, Cora dances with Finn. He takes her home and they're about to kiss and they get a call - there's been a murder.Obviously, Liam and Meredith didn't get there in time mainly because Liam doesn't know how to pump gas. Liam is a suspect because he mysteriously called it in and he was with John's wife at the time, which does seem suspicious. Cora is hurt because she thought they had something but now she knows that he's bad news. Flashback to Liam who goes to talk to Cora. He tells her that he's wanted for murder. She says that they'll run, she'll go with him because she loves him. And then they kiss big ones. Back in present day, Cora is able to clear Liam's name. She tells him that she feels like meeting him was inevitable. She likes him and she wants to find out what "this" could be. She says would you? Fade to...white?

Katie Lee Biegel grew up in Milton, West Virginia, descended from a long line of women who really knew how to cook. Her grandparents had a big vegetable garden and canned their own green beans and tomatoes. Her great grandmother won blue ribbons for her angel food cake, her great aunt was a fabulous cook, and all of them instilled in her a love for comfort food and hospitality that she's carried all her life. After getting a lot of attention in the media for her marriage to Billy Joel at age 23, she started writing cookbooks, landed a gig hosting Top Chef, wrote a novel about surfing, and eventually became a co-host of The Kitchen on the Food Network, which she's now been doing for 11 seasons. These days, Katie is busier than ever, with a new movie coming out on the Hallmark Channel called Catch of the Day, which she produced and co-wrote, and a 5 year-old daughter who does not love vegetables. Sid talks to Katie about her Appalachian roots, her favorite restaurant ever, her recipe for sweet tea oven fried chicken, and her family's Christmas tradition in West Virginia.

So we'll see. We find out that Ben Ayres did take the script from Lori and that he'll do what he can to get it into the right hands. Cut back to Gail looking real scared on the ATV. Suddenly, Tyler Hynes comes rolling up on an ATV and he says “my mom said I should come find 2 attractive women for some adventure”. He says Gail I know you're nervous, how about you hop on the back of mine and I'll help you. And Alicia is now like “wait I'm scared too”! Gail hops on and they get moving and Gail is loving life, holding onto Tyler Hynes. Cut over to Paige telling momma Kerry about her move. At first, she says it's a terrible idea. But she tells her that you know that I support you. It's time for you to do your own thing. Tyler pulls over and tells Gail it's time for her to try it on her own (plus he needs to give Alicia some love and ride with her cuz he's a gentlemen). She's nervous but she does it!!! You go Gail! Lori is proud of herself for handing over her script. She doubts anything will come of it but she did it and that's big for her. And her sister is so proud of her. After ATV riding, Tyler hangs out with Alicia and Gail and gives them a friendship pep talk that would make you run through a wall. They then all get rocks and write down something they want to let go of and they throw it into the water. Back on cruise, it's time for the pajama party, of course the 3 wise men do their dance. The women in the crowd are going nuts. It's time for Mr Shipmas - cruise version of finding Mr Christmas. Of course ripped Rob is competing. He tells Jonathan Bennett about the wedding and of course he's excited. Gail and Alicia are playing shuffleboard and of course Erin Cahill and Sarah Drew walk up.

We know that because when a police officer comes in after they left, she's no where to be found.So Emilie stops at the Pierce home, finds the key, and they stay there for the night. In the morning, there's a knock at the door. It's two ladies who live across the street. They assume she's the Pierce's niece all grown up. They bring breakfast, turn on the gas and the water, and couldn't be more helpful.  Emilie decides not to push their luck and goes to leave. But her car breaks down before they can leave. The local police chief, Nathan Blair, pulls up and offers to give them a ride into town for some groceries. He ends up paying for everything.  And boy is he into her. She knows that they can only stay there for a little bit so she tries to put up walls but he's not having it. He looks into her and the angel helps make all the paper work for the house seem official. A fax comes in that shows that she's wanted for kidnapping but the police department doesn't notice it. No problem at all. Nathan shows up to put up more Christmas decorations for the kids and they end up kissing in the attic. She knows she has to leave before Christmas because her "uncle" is supposed to show up. But when she finds out that the airport is closed, she decides to stay and bring the kids to see "Santa" who is actually Nathan. It's there that everything goes to heck. First, the police administrator finds the fax. And then Alana tells Santa that she wants to see her real mom for Christmas. Nathan is real mad so he goes to a bar and talk to the angel who encourages him to forgive her.This case immediately goes to court to figure out what to do with Emilie, for lying about who she is and with the kids who she kidnapped. Nathan shows up and speaks in support of Emilie, says that they can live with him, and that he'd also like to marry her because he loves her. That's enough for the judge. They're good to go and they kiss big ones as the kids run and hug them. They go outside and it's snowing and Alana notices the statue of the angel in the town square looked a whole lot like the angel from the diner. It was a season for miracles.

Nate is there with his two grandmas. And he's a bit of a celeb because he posted on the cruise Facebook group that it's his birthday. We then meet Lori and her sister. They live in separate states so they're so excited to go on this cruise. Lori is a fellow Christmas crazy and is excited to decorate their room. The Veneer family are back and momma Kerry talks about how she's happily married and she knows Wes Brown is happily married, but she has been given a hall pass in case Wes is interested.

Best friends since 10th grade, 46 years ago. And they are our black friends. They're excited to meet Tyler Hynes. And Alicia is gonna try to get Gail to get out of her comfort zone. So everyone's up on top of the ship. JB comes out and does his thing. Tyler Hynes comes on stage in a bath robe. It's a whole thing. Paige is very into him and she thinks they would hit it off really well. She yells at him to take it off.

She does not get to that stage and Alicia shames her from the stage.  We get Gail in a confessional having to psychoanalyze why she doesn't wanna get out of her comfort zone. The sisters show up for trivia, hosted by Nikki DeLoach and Andrew Walker. And Andrew is just hugging everyone. And these sisters suck at trivia. And then there's the boot shot with Tyler Hynes. It's madness. Paige is pumped. But then Wes Brown walks in and Kerry is pumped. They hug. And Paige says “I've been told to call you step-dad”. And then Kerry says it …. You're my hallmark pass. Wes is just so chill. JB is also there and Paige is like can you give Tyler Hynes my number? And he's like I can do that. And I'm weirdly invested in this. Nate has lost his grandmas. So he's going around and asking “has anyone seen some grandmas?”. Turns out they're hiding becuase they're annoyed by Nate. Turns out his birthday isn't even today, it's December 10th. Fricken liar. So Rob goes into the gym and Paul Campbell is there. They have matching black tanks. So he tells him that he's gonna propose and wants to get married on the ship. Paul is like hey I can officiate your wedding here. He pulls Andrew walker in. Rob is like oh boy. Now I really need to ask her.
