The "Royal" theme has ended. Hallmark is starting their
Spring Into Love theme with a new movie series this weekend:
Hearts Around the Table. There are four movies in this series and it is suggested to
watch the movies in order as each movie follows a different main character from their core friend group, exploring their love lives while growing their friendships together.

The movies in order, (they are conveniently numbered for us):
- Hearts Around the Table: Jenna’s First Love – March 22
- Jenna plans a charity event for Billionaire Tom Redlands. But working with Tom’s right hand Andrew is proving difficult, especially since Jenna and Andrew have a romantic history.
- Hearts Around the Table: Shari’s Second Act – March 29
- Shari just moved back to D.C. after a breakup and hopes to start painting again. Inspiration hits when she meets Evan, a repairman who winds up actually being a gallery owner.
- Hearts Around the Table: Josh’s Third Serving – April 5
- When after school programs see their funding cut, Teachers Josh and Ella turn to fundraising before banding together in search of a larger donation, falling hard along the way.
- Hearts Around the Table: Kiki’s Fourth Ingredient – April 12
- Kiki is overjoyed and then overwhelmed when she agrees to cater a big wedding. She turns to Clay for support. Together, Kiki and Clay prove that the best ingredient is love.
"Weekly dinners are the most important detail. All the four friends have weekly Sunday dinners throughout the Hearts Around the Table movies (clue is in the name, really), anchoring the series as a whole.
There are two important characters at these dinners who don’t get a separate film. Angie is the matriarch of the bunch, taking care of the group and offering sage advice whenever she can. She’s also taking care of young foster kid Rory, who’s having a hard time coming out of his shell.
Weekly dinners are made up of the six of them, and as you’ll learn in Jenna’s First Love, they’re pretty historical. While the drama – and focus of the four films – keeps changing, there’s one thing that will stay the same throughout.
Instead of this being typical boy-meets-girl romances, Hearts Around the Table makes its romantic connections a little more complicated. In short, this means our couples have some history together.
As you can see from the synopses, it’s not really romance that comes first either. The main priority for our awesome foursome is their work, or at least getting their lives back on track. Love is just something that comes along as part and parcel, giving newfound hope."
