Good Witch

Good witch was one of my favorite TV shows. It was calming, soothing, the perfect place to escape from reality for a while. I am so disappointed, that they ruined the seventh season. I miss the old Cassie, her advices, the atmosphere of Bell, book and candle, even the outfits and decorations. I will rewatch time to time the previous seasons and forget what the new writers have done to it.

Cassie is a magical woman. Not in the tradition of Samantha or Sabrina. It is hard to say that anything that would be considered true magic ever occurs. Cassie does have a habit of appearing out of nowhere, of knowing who is there before she sees them, and of saying just the right thing to make a "coincidence" happen where it is needed. This was true in the movies as in the TV series.

The TV series starts out rather abruptly if you didn't see any or all of the movies. Brandon, Cassie's stepson, is being separated from his wife. Lori has a background of storytelling, if not outright reporting, that leads her back to the town newspaper.

Yes, Cassie is magical in the sense of being a wise and discerning woman who is both beautiful and loving. Cassie is the definition of optimistic. She wants to give everyone a chance, even long past where others would.

The TV series is a welcome addition to the Hallmark lineup after having been a fairly regular annual TV movie tradition.

Beautiful small town, relaxing tv show! Heartwarming and great for autumn and winter afternoons!

I enjoy watching this show as it makes me feel happy and really good when I am slightly down. Everything is good in Middleton and you start wondering if such a magical place could really exist and why you don't move there right away. One thing I don't like abt the show is how important characters just disappear and are never heard of again. Makes this warm-hearted Middleton community look a tat superficial and I am left confused and disappointed.

In a cynical world, so often filled with doom and gloom, it makes such a pleasant change to find an upbeat program. With moral tales reminiscent of the Waltons, lashings of romance and a dash of humour; Good Witch is just such a program. One of the things I really like about the storyline is that doesn't rely on the hackneyed 'Will they won't they' cliche. However, I now hear that the plot is going to take a darker turn. I hope that doesn't mean, that Cassie and Sam's relationship ends - I'd stop watching!
