I did some sleuthing and discovered that there were several Mystery Woman movies. I was not able to find all of them for viewing. Below is a complete list – the bolded ones are the ones which I was able to watch.

Mystery Woman: Pilot

Mystery Woman: Mystery Weekend

Mystery Woman: Snapshot

Mystery Woman: Sing Me a Murder

Mystery Woman: Vision of a Murder

Mystery Woman: Game Time

Mystery Woman: At First Sight

Mystery Woman: Wild West Mystery

Mystery Woman: Oh Baby

Mystery Woman: Redemption

Mystery Woman: In the Shadows

If you have any suggestions as to how I might access the un-bolded titles, I’d be very appreciative! I can’t seem to find them available.

I really enjoyed these movies because of the strong female lead character. Samantha is brave and she stops at nothing to find the answers to her questions. For example, when her friend is murdered, she doesn’t back down from questioning family members, and other people, even when her life is in danger.

Sam is smart and she also owns a bookstore! A mystery bookstore is the perfect backdrop for these movies. Sam has a helper, Philby, who assists in the bookstore. Philby uses his secret knowledge to unlock the clues that are needed to solve Sam’s mysteries.

Sam is also a photographer. Her picture taking skills help her to solve some of her mysteries. She spends a lot of time developing pictures in her dark room, which is inside her bookstore.

Each of these mysteries are cozy – meaning that there is a murder as the catalyst for each story.

I sensed that Sam would’ve been a strong character as a real detective. When I say real detective, I’m referring to someone who is actually paid to solve mysteries. The way Sam is portrayed in these movies – kind of reminds me of the old Nancy Drew stories I read as a kid. Nancy was also smart, but, like Sam, she didn’t get paid for her detective skills.

I felt that the police commissioner should have been fired. He was totally inept at his job, and he was irritating.

I really liked Sam’s friend, Cassie, who is the police commissioner’s assistant. Like Sam, Cassie is intelligent, and she assists Sam with solving mysteries.

So, have you ever watched Hallmark’s Mystery Woman movies? If so, which ones did you watch? Do you have any favorites?

If you like mysteries, then you should check out my novels, Caramel Kisses and Shades of Chocolate. Both of these books contain strong mystery elements that you are guaranteed to enjoy. Happy reading!
