Movie Recommendations // TV Shows

Besides a good movie, I also love a good TV series. One of the reason I like series so much is because you get to be more invested in the characters lives. I've seen numerous different TV shows, but these 4 are the ones I like the most.
So, here are my 4 favorite series.

When Calls the Heart tells the captivating story of Elizabeth Thatcher, a young teacher accustomed to her high society life, who receives her first classroom assignment in Coal Valley, a small coal-mining town where life is simple, but often fraught with challenges. You'll also meet Abigail Stanton, a wife and mother whose husband, the foreman of the mine, along with a dozen other miners, has just been killed in an explosion. The newly widowed women find their faith is tested when they must go to work in the mines to keep a roof over their heads. Elizabeth charms most everyone in Coal Valley, except Constable Jack Thornton who believes Thatcher’s wealthy father has doomed the lawman’s career by insisting he be assigned in town to protect the shipping magnate’s daughter. Living in a turn of the century coal town, Elizabeth will have to learn the ways of the frontier if she wishes to thrive in the rural west on her own.

When Calls the Heart has been a TV show that I’ve loved since I first started watching it back in 2014. This show is so good and I always look forward to each new season. Season 6 is coming next year!
When Calls the Heart is one of those shows that I have great pleasure in hooking someone on it. ;) The characters are so much fun, but I really can’t say much more about it because I can’t give spoilers away. :)

Take three little girls, their recently widowed father and two of dad’s best buddies, put them in the same household and stand back. 

In Full House you’ll have fun and plenty of laughter as you get to know Danny Tanner, the girls’ doting dad, rock-’n’-roll Uncle Jesse, Joey, a wannabe comic whose best audience is right at home, and the three Tanner girls; DJ, Stephanie, and Michelle. 

Full House is a show I just recently started watching. This is a really funny show. It never fails to make me laugh, but it also has some of those sweet heartwarming parts. I also really love the family dynamics. 

The multi-generational family drama Chesapeake Shores follows Abby O’Brien, a high-powered career woman, divorcee and mother to two daughters, as she adjusts to life back in her hometown of Chesapeake Shores. Abby now balances a budding relationship with her former high school sweetheart, Trace, working for a firm that does business with her uncompromising father Mick, and raising two young daughters. Returning to her hometown means engaging in the lives of her siblings: Jess, a free-spirit trying to succeed as a bed and breakfast owner; Bree, a playwright who buys a bookstore in Chesapeake Shores after moving back home from Chicago; Kevin, a soldier adjusting to civilian life and new romance; and Connor, a new lawyer establishing his professional career. Having returned to Chesapeake Shores shortly after Abby, the O’Brien’s once-estranged mother Megan strives to reestablish relationships with Abby and her siblings, though the O’Brien clan primarily looks to its wise grandmother Nell for guidance as they navigate life, love, career and romance.

Chesapeake Shores was one of those shows that I wasn’t as sure about at first. Well, I ended up really liking it. Both seasons 1 and 2 are great and I can’t wait for season 3 this summer. I really like family stories (even though this one is a bit dysfunctional) but it’s still fun to just get to know everyone.

Signed, Sealed, Delivered is a wonderful combination of romance, comedy and drama that follows the lives of four postal detectives who transform themselves into a team of detectives to track down intended recipients of undeliverable mail. Their missions take them out of the office and into an unpredictable world where redirected letters and packages can save lives, solve crimes, reunite old loves and change futures by arriving late but somehow always on time. The team includes charming Oliver O’Toole, a genius postal detective and the group’s leader; new team member, Shane McInerney, a technophile who brings 21st century sensibility to the group; free-spirited, “girl next door” Rita Haywith, who has a photographic memory; and lovable Norman Dorman, a master in conventional research methods. 

Signed, Sealed, Delivered is a fun show. It has a pretty diverse cast and I really wasn’t sure what exactly to think of it at first. It didn’t take me long at all though to really enjoy it! 

The numerous other TV shows I've seen include, due to my family's dynamics: The Waltons, Little House on the Prairie, Gilligan's Island, Get Smart, The A-Team, and Sue Thomas: FBEye.
