Welcome to another killer episode of Hallmark Mysteries and More! Andrea and Eric dig deep into Mystery 101: An Education in Murder — the film that finally gives fans the long-awaited first kiss between Amy and Travis… but also serves up academic scandal, edge-of-your-seat twists, and maybe the best red herrings in the series.
Is Steve Bacic the villain—or just another wrongly accused professor caught in the crosshairs? Was Travis’s loyalty to Amy the highlight of the movie? And what literary Easter eggs did writer John Christian Plummer sneak in to reveal the killer before the final act?
We also unpack:
- 🔍 Why this movie marked a darker tonal shift for the series
- 💕 Behind-the-scenes trivia on the chemistry between Jill Wagner and Kristoffer Polaha
- 📚 Clues hidden in Shakespearean references and book titles
- 📺 Our “Character Corner” and Hallmark & Chill mystery pairings
Plus, we tease our upcoming review of Deadly History, and reflect on the bittersweet end of the Mystery 101 series. If you’re a Sleuther who’s still hoping for Episode 8, this episode is for you.
