SATURDAY, OCTOBER 11 — “Haul Out the Halloween” — 8 p.m. Eastern time: Hallmark confirmed on September 2 that it will finish fall with a bang — or a boo! This highly-anticipated premiere brings back the primary cast of the 2022 and 2023 “Haul Out the Holly” movies starring Wes Brown, Lacey Chabert, Melissa Peterman, and more. Adding a fun twist, “Halloweentown” alums Kimberly J. Brown and Daniel Kountz join the cast! According to Hallmark’s logline, “Halloween-obsessed neighbors inspire residents of Evergreen Lane to haul out their spookiest costumes and décor to become EverSCREAM Lane.”
(UPDATED!) SUNDAY, OCTOBER 12 — “Haunted Harmony Mysteries: Buried at C” — 8 p.m. Eastern time: A surprise addition to the fall lineup (but perfectly timed for Halloween!) is the second movie in Tamera Mowry-Housley’s “Haunted Harmony Mysteries” franchise, two years after the first — “Murder in D Minor” — premiered in September 2023. The synopsis states, “Our favorite music teacher Gethsemane is back again along with her trusted ghost friend Eamon to solve the unexplained death of a sea captain.”
DATE TBD — “Finding Mr. Christmas” Season 2: Hallmark announced in August that Jonathan Bennett and Melissa Peterman’s hit reality competition’s second season would move from Hallmark+ to Hallmark Channel as part of a Monday night lineup of unscripted shows. Since the network is airing Chabert’s eight episodes of “Celebrations” across four Mondays, we suspect “Finding Mr. Christmas” may have a similar schedule. The question is whether it will premiere on October 13, before Countdown to Christmas officially begins, or the following week. Also on the horizon is Tamera Mowry-Housley’s unscripted competition, “Baked With Love: Holiday,” with its premiere date also TBD.
