Cassie Nightingale, Middleton’s favorite enchantress, and her young-teenage daughter Grace, who shares that same special intuition as her mom, welcome Dr. Sam Radford and his son to town. When the New York transplants move in next to the Grey House, they are immediately spellbound by the mother-daughter duo next door, but Sam and Cassie quickly find they may not see eye to eye. With her signature charm, Cassie attempts to bring everyone together, ensuring all of Middleton is in for new changes, big surprises and, of course, a little bit of magic!
"Good Witch” is based on Bell’s beloved character Cassie, the raven-haired enchantress who kept audiences spellbound for seven installments of Hallmark Channel's longest-running and highest-rated original movie franchise of all time.
What viewers say
Viewers who love this small-town series call it wholesome, comforting and uplifting, a gentle family drama about kindness, forgiveness and a warm community, and some compare it to old-fashioned family television. Parents see it as suitable for nearly any age. Critics of the show find it overly sweet and unrealistic, with clichéd plots, preachy moralizing and a lead character who is relentlessly cheerful. Many viewers say the later seasons drift toward soap opera and bring in more grown-up themes such as romance and drinking, and a few say the mix is too tame to count as real comedy or mystery.
Best for: Viewers who want cozy, feel-good small-town drama with a touch of magic and don't mind sweetness.
