But Make It Hallmark Chinggay and Patty

Chinggay and Patty are at an all-time low because Hallmark’s Countdown to Summer movies literally put them both to sleep. BMIH’s shortest episode yet goes through this snoozefest, one movie at a time—so you don’t have to. Our silver lining? Andrea Brooks and the return of BMIH’s favorite kid actor, Averie Peters.
Everything Puppies (Pascal Lamothe-Kipnes, Stephen Huszar)

Chinggay and Patty throw the gauntlet with super serious Spring Into Love pronouncements. One, bobs are making a comeback thanks to Aimee Teegarden and Erin Krakow. Two, Dan Jeanotte is officially out of Patty’s doghouse. And three, Chinggay declares Sarah Drew to be the HCU’s very own Meryl Streep. Cuties Robert Buckley and Juan Pablo di Pace add sizzle and charm to this month’s lineup and make for an interesting F*ck, Marry, and Kill.

Chinggay and Patty fixate on their current Hallmark kinks: Patagonia sad dads and crumbs from a kind friend-to-lover. This week’s movies fall under No Man’s Land season, where random themes reign supreme — female empowerment care of fighter pilot moms and car mechanic daughters. Two favourite actresses, Erin Cahill and Rachel Boston, return for less than stellar movies; and two favourite Hallmark hunks Niall Matter and Tyler Hynes battle it out (and fail). At the end of the day, it’s the dude who scratches the dependability itch that trumps all.

Chinggay and Patty get loud, proud, and prejudiced because it’s Austen month on the Hallmark Channel! It is a truth universally acknowledged that when certain actors who BMIH has deemed disgraced come on-screen, you get a pod filled with intense rage. On the opposite end of the spectrum, this season is also happily full of intense longing, love, and female empowerment… thanks to the dazzling display of talent presented by old faves Will Kemp, Mallory Jansen, and newcomer Eliza Bennett. Fellow Jane-ites, you’ll need to give this ep a listen.
Love & Jane (Alison Sweeney, Benjamin Ayres)
Sense & Sensibility (Deborah Ayorinde, Bethany Antonia, Dan Jeannotte)
Paging Mr. Darcy (Mallory Jansen, Will Kemp)
An American in Austen (Eliza Bennett, Nicholas Bishop)

Chinggay and Patty actually get through New Year New Movies without a hitch! The year started with a slew of sports offset by Hallmark’s usual tropes. Rugby + fascination with a foreign land, golf + dead moms, aerial silks + small town festival. The one movie that managed to steer clear of any tropes, of course, took our breath away—and we have Laci J. Mailley’s fabulous bob and Marco Grazzini to thank for that.
A Scottish Love Scheme (Erika Durance, Jordan Young)
Love on the Right Course (Ashley Newbrough, Marcus Rosner)
Betty’s Bad Luck in Love (Laci J. Mailley, Marco Grazzini)
Romance with a Twist (Jocelyn Hudon, Olivier Renaud)
