All seven episodes of Mystery 101 show the relationship between Travis Burke and Amy Winslow as it evolves over time.
Now that all seven have been shown in a marathon session, winding up with Deadly History, I hope that's indicative of a positive resolution in the next installment, despite the squirrely "preview " tacked onto Deadly History.
I realize that there's been change of command at Hallmark recently, but I hope there won't be a dropping of the ball here. Mystery 101 is too solid a series to mess up!!!

In the last minutes of the the last movie we discovered that Amy's uncle disappeared, so this is where this movie picked up. Amy, Travis and Graham fly across the country to NYC to find out what happened and even help with the investigation.
Have I mentioned I love these movies? I love the main characters, they chemistry between Kristoffer and Jill and this was no exception, their characters had few but very sweet moments.
I'm not gonna lie, this case was quite tough to follow, so many characters, so many possibilities, and in the end we discover that there were like three different storylines all wrapped up in one. Also, has any of the writers heard of the word "jurisdiction?" Okay, moving on.
I did miss Amy teaching class, I find it so interesting when they link her class to the case.
Fact: Around the minute 55 you can see a few people wearing masks.
Now that ending? I hate it and love it at the same time. Why? Firstly, because of the cliffhanger and it leaves us wondering what the heck happened in those 11 months (I'm PRETTY SURE it will be a huge misunderstanding, they surely mislead us on purpose), however I love it because it's confirmed we will have another movie, I wish it's sometime this year (yeah I know Jill was pregnant in this one) but one can hope right?

Loved this one so much, it's definitely one of the better episodes of the Mystery 101 series. Lots going on, lots of suspects and little twists. I really enjoyed the story and the reveal was great as I didn't suspect it. However I'm gutted at the end of this episode when they give a glimpse into the future a year later. I won't spoil it but I was heartbroken!!!! Can't wait for the next one!

Just got done watching the last of these films. Hallmark movie and mystery final admitted there will be no more. This was one of the best written,casted and executed of any of the mysteries they have done. The acting was great and stories really held together and held my interest even after a few watching. The characters where all grown ups. I will miss the actors/ characters they were all good . The chemistry between the leads was believable and fun. I know that nothing last forever but it appears Hallmark really just wants to attract a younger audience not sure why. I enjoy the inclusion of diverse characters but you didn't have to get rid of everything that has characters over 40.

This was a great story. I am not sure if I 100% understood how everyone was or wasn't involved...I might watch end one more time because I felt some details weren't fully resolved at the end.
The 11 months later part threw me for a complete loop. I am not sure how they make that work. It makes zero sense with her personality. But I am sure I will still watch.

I enjoy this Series of Movies. The two leads are hot and have crazy chemistry. This lasted movie was good, it wasn't my favorite, but it wasn't predictable and it entertained. The best and worst part of the movie all occur in the last 5 minutes. Finally they reveal their feelings then 2 seconds later they flash forward 11 months and it's like...WTF? Really? Less of a cliffhanger wanting me to watch the next movie and more of an aggressive eye roll situation.

I absolutely loved these movies. I loved this one as well. But the ending confused me and absolutely broke my heart. I'm hoping that is was just a dream or not true.

Amy Winslow (Jill Wagner), her father (Robin Thomas), and Travis Burke (Kristoffer Polaha) travel to Ithaca, New York when her uncle goes missing. There is evidence pointing to foul play. Amy and Travis help Sheriff Ridgeway (Lorne Cardinal) investigate the case.
This is a Mystery 101 episode from Hallmark Mysteries. This one is basic murder mystery with a basic murder solving team. Wagner and Polaha seems to be a stable team although they are not generating a lot of energy this time around. There is a big twist. They are jamming a lot of revealing into a short time. It's the basic everybody gather in a room as the solvers explain the mystery to the suspects. It's basic mystery 101.

I love how the movie keeps the audience guessing the whole time. Sure, a lot of characters were giving out weird vibes but they really didn't give much a way. The last few seconds are jarring, but it's Hallmark... we know it'll all be okay in the end!

The story was kinda convoluted but they always are in these. I did not guess the ending, but it was still entertaining. The leads Travis and Amy are THE reason to watch. AND this one has a teaser for another installment.

Several story lines in one mystery, intertwined then unraveled as resolved. I love the chemistry between Jill Wagner and Kristopher Polaha. Did question a swim in heavy clothing but it worked for the script. Teaser set my mind to whirling. Eleven months later?

I loved this series. It was fun and still caught the viewer up in the mystery. Each movie had a great cast and a great set of mysteries to keep us guessing. I loved the literary references and how they tied into that particular episode. I cheered when Amy and Travis finally got around to admitting their feelings then totally peeved with the "11 months later" epilogue of this last episode. But since Hallmark has chosen not to put their money where their writers were leading us and cancelled the series I choose to ignore that epilogue. It never happened. The series ended with a kiss in a hospital and that's that!

EXCELLENT. But this is my least favourite of Mystery 101 Film Series. I like Amy and Travis solving crimes in their Home town along with Budd, Clair and Mr. Winslow. I think Budd's character comes into end last film itself. Really missed him. The Story was Awesome.

Still in the top three of the mystery series on Hallmark, in my opinion of course. Solving a mystery based on the things that were missing...I always like being inspired to read new things, like a Sherlock Holmes mystery.
In this episode, Travis goes to Ithaca New York with Grahame and Amy to help them locate Alister Winslow, Amy's uncle and Grahame's baby brother who has gone missing.
I enjoyed the banter between Amy and her ex-aunt about how their literary specialties suit them: Victorian Literature-all about avoidance and obfuscation Crime Literature-lays everything out.
"You know what some of my favorite things are?....security cameras."-Travis.
I am loving the growth of Amy and Travis' relationship and was going to say that I loved the ending...but the truth is the 11 months later has me concerned. Please, please, please do not mess Travis and Amy up!!!!!
Still one of my favorite series, now I am dying for the next one. I love the great observations by Amy and Travis and I really enjoy their relationship...the humor and unintentional interruptions by the dad. These fantastic adults being reduced to embarrassed teens, and they do it so well. Such a great team!
"I did not use that exact word...I mean I'm not against using that word."-Amy.
"Dashiel Hammet wrote the problem with putting 2 and 2 together is sometimes you get 4 and sometimes you get 22."-Amy/Grahame.
You had me at, when Travis said I trust you with my life.

5/10 - I'm afraid this is the weakest entry in the Mystery 101 series so far and was not a very engaging mystery all in all.
