In this week’s episode, Andrea and Eric take a deep dive into Emma Fielding Mysteries: Site Unseen, the archaeology-themed Hallmark mystery that kicked off Courtney Thorne-Smith’s return to television in a leading role.
They dig into everything—from questionable historical facts and subdued romance to that surprisingly action-packed ending. Was it a diamond in the rough, or just dirt in your DVR? Let’s just say that opinions were unearthed.
🔎 What’s inside:
🧭 A full breakdown of the film’s plot, character dynamics, and whether it stands out in the crowded Hallmark mystery catalog
🎭 Courtney Thorne-Smith vs. other leading ladies—where does she rank?
🌟 Supporting cast MVPs like Benjamin Ayres and Tess Atkins (with a shoutout to their unexpected careers!)
💥 A rare Hallmark action ending—tackles, two-by-fours, and a suspenseful boat scene
📺 Plus: updates on Hallmark’s mystery drought, British imports, streaming strategy, and a fun Hallmark trivia moment you won’t want to miss
If you love cozy mysteries with academic flair, questionable safety choices, and a lot of boats (seriously, Hallmark loved boats in 2017), this episode is for you.
