Gilmore Girls
The power of girlhood is strong with Lorelai and Rory, the mother-daughter we all love to watch! Take a virtual trip down to Stars Hollow, Connecticut, another made up town, where all the magic happens!
Northern Rescue
A common theme with shows like Sweet Magnolias is seeing how a community is able to move through tragedy, which is exactly what Northern Rescue is all about. Watch as a father navigates life without his late wife, relocating his family to a small town, Turtle Island Bayâone that he's all too familiar with.
Ginny & Georgia
This show follows a spunky mother whose antics may seem questionable (very questionable), but her big heart in unveiled after each decision she makes. You'll be left on the edge of your seat more often than not!
Chesapeake Shores
Moving from a small town to a big city, just to go back to a small town is something someone does when they've reached rock bottom. Sounds rough, but it's the exact situation Abby O'Brien sees herself in, which makes for one good watch!
From Scratch
Zoe Saldaña stars as an artist with lots of passion for what she does. So much so, she decided to spontaneously move to Italy, where she meets a chef who steals her heart through the language of food.
Hart of Dixie
These city-gals with big attitudes are no match for the turmoils, love triangles, and drama that small town Bluebell, Alabama will soon bring them! Don't worry though, there are plenty of opportunities to laugh out loud and relate to the way these lovable characters react to certain scenarios.
Dead to Me
This one starts out rather chaoticâwith a woman's husband being killed in a car accident. But when the newfound widow becomes friends with the killer, things start to get interesting!
This Is Us
Everyone has a story. Especially this set of triplets, who couldn't be more different from one another, but are bound by the love for their parents, and shared experiences growing up. Watch as they navigate the peculiar situation we like to call adulthood, and all the strange things it brings.
When Calls the Heart
Coal Valley is calling for a changeâand a young school teacher, Elizabeth Thatcher, is there to answer! She's just what the town's group of students needed, impacting them with her kindness and expansive knowledge. Her love life sees some positive changes, too!
