The producer of Touched By An Angel, Martha Williamson has produced a new television series for the Hallmark Channel.
Signed, Sealed, Delivered
The new original series “Signed, Sealed, Delivered” is a wonderful combination of romance, comedy and drama that follows the lives of four postal detectives who transform themselves into a team of detectives to track down intended recipients of undeliverable mail. Their missions take them out of the office where redirected letters and packages can save lives, solve crimes, reunite old loves and change futures by arriving late but somehow always on time.
The team includes charming Oliver O’Toole (Eric Mabius), the group’s leader is a man of faith who prayerfully approaches his work with the goal of making a difference in people’s lives; new team member, Shane McInerney (Kristin Booth), a technophile who brings 21st century sensibility to the group; free-spirited, “girl next door” Rita Haywith (Crystal Lowe) who has a photographic memory; and lovable Norman Dorman (Geoff Gustafson), a master in conventional research methods.
This incredible series even incorporates scripture in its themes and in the conversations between characters. In FACT, The American Bible Society has built a bible study to go with the series,

My Thoughts: I thought the show was heartwarming. I could follow the characters and I liked the interaction between the postal staff, which appeared to resemble a close knit group of individuals. I don’t want to spoil the whole plot of the show, but I really enjoyed watching what would happen next. In this review episode, a lost letter is found in an old desk and the postal detective team has set out to find the sender of this letter and on this search they find a special surprise.
This episode focused on true love, the future, believing in yourself despite the obstacles you might face in life and being your true self. You will laugh and you may cry like I did. Overall, I was impressed with the first episode and I would definitely watch again to see how the character’s roles develop in future episodes. Be sure to check it out and let me know what you think.
The show aires SUNDAYS, 8/7c on Hallmark
