Back in March, Hallmark Movies & Mysteries announced that they picked up the hit movie series Jesse Stone starring Tom Selleck for at least two more telemovies. Today, they announced that ninth installment is called Jesse Stone Lost is Paradise and it will debut this fall.
The famed detective takes a much needed vacation to Boston and the Assistant State Homicide Commander, Lieutenant Sydney Greenstreet (Leslie Hope) knows about his work. She asks him to look in to some unsolved cases. At first, he thinks there is nothing there, but then something catches his eye. The two of them start to investigate that case and find themselves in grave danger. Will they solve the hot case before they find themselves cold? We will find out in a few months. The movie also stars Luke Perry and William Devane.
Back in March, I spoke with Tom Selleck about Jesse Stone changing channels. He wouldn’t tell me much about what is going to happen; but he did talk about what it means to him. He said that he was writing the script for Lost in Paradise like he has done in the past, and will shoot both movies during his summer hiatus from CBS’s Blue Bloods with his partner Michael Brandman. Then he added, “It is always interesting when you’ve been away for three years, there is a great curiosity of the audience, thanks goodness, where Jesse is at.”
He said he was happy with the way things were the progressing with the script. That is important to him because as he explained, “I feel a responsibility because Hallmark has stepped up where we can do the same quality we have always done.”
He concluded his answer about Jesse Stone saying, “I love the character. He is a mess and he is still going to be a mess.”
He might be a mess, but Jesse Stone the series, is anything but. Anyone of any age can enjoy these movies. If you haven’t seen any of them, then I will tell you that several of them are available on Netflix and are constantly airing on the Hallmark Channels. You should check them out this summer before the new film comes to our TVs in the fall.
The Christmas Secret debuts on Hallmark Movies and & Mysteries at 9p tonight and I am telling you to watch this sweet movie.

Will he be able to give his grandfather’s wife her Christmas wish?
There is so much more to this wonderful holiday tale that you won’t want to miss a single second of it. Just have the tissues ready because you will be crying.
Kirk Cameron was on Hallmark’s Home & Family yesterday and Mark Steines asked him if fans still go crazy over Growing Pains after all of these years. Cameron told them they do, and his way to get his fans over Seaver Fever is to feed. How? By doing all 7 seasons of the loved sitcom in :60 seconds. And yes a wig is involved.
Did he feed your fever or are you still craving more? Then watch the whole interview to see him breakdance in that same wig. It is a sight you will soon not forget.
Did I mention, he also confirmed that there is talk of bringing back Growing Pains in the same way they are thinking of doing it with his sister Candice Cameron’s show, Full House? I would tune in to see the Seaver Clan together again.
Lisa Whelchel Tweeted this picture of Kim Fields and her together, and Blair and Tootie look as close as they did when they learned The Facts of Life at Eastland.
So what brought the two of the together? Let’s just say what did will bring a smile as big as theirs to your face. That’s because they are both starring in the Hallmark Channel movie, For Better or For Worse. I think we can all agree, it is all for the better!
You are cordially invited to the wedding of Gabi Kiss & Charlie Bontempo on Friday, July 5th at 10a on Home & Family at the Hallmark Channel. Throughout the season of the daytime talk show we have seen the happy couple prep for their big day and tomorrow it all comes together for a sweet moment that will leave you with happy tears streaming down your face.
So tune in tomorrow morning to see what fashion designer David Meister, floral designer Michael Gaffney and lifestyle expert and Lilyshop.com founder Jessie Jane put together to make this memorable day even more memorable for the bride and groom.
Seriously who doesn’t love a wedding, especially one you can watch in PJs and not in a tux or gown. The only negative about watching one on television is that the food isn’t as good, but then again at you least you didn’t have to buy them a present.
