The Cozy Mystery List Blog

I know that summer is a time when lots of people head outdoors, but it is also the time for spending some time indoors, with the air conditioner. This is especially true if you live someplace hot and humid like San Antonio! It’s a perfect time to chill-out while watching a good movie.

The Hallmark Movies & Mysteries channel will be showing lots of Murder, She Wrote, Hart to Hart, Columbo, Perry Mason, Matlock, Monk, and Psych shows throughout the weekdays and Saturdays. However, every Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, and Friday they will be re-airing one of their original mystery shows at 8:00 PM Central. On Thursday nights they will be re-airing Christmas movies. (I’m going to just post the channel’s original mystery and Christmas movies.)
