Good Witch is one of Hallmark’s most popular franchises. Since it first hit screens in 2008, it has spawned a massive franchise, featuring seven movies, a TV series, and a series of spin-offs. But in what order should you watch this gigantic franchise?
If you want to inject some magic into your day, here is the perfect Good Witch watch order.
What is Good Witch about?
Good Witch started life as a 2008 made-for-TV movie. The movie follows Cassandra Nightingale, a woman who moves to the small town of Middleton to set up a store. However, Cassandra isn’t your average small business owner, as Cassandra is actually a witch who sells herbs and other magical tinctures. While the people of Middleton are suspicious of her and her motives at first. A budding romantic relationship with police officer Jake Russell convinces her to stay. In later films, we see how Cassandra’s life has changed as her relationships and life develops. And as she becomes more settled in the town of Middleton, she makes a load of new friends who become entangled in her story.
In 2015, a television series called Good Witch also launched on screens. This series and its spin-off specials continued where the movies left off. But they also expanded on the lore, introducing several new characters and exploring more of Middleton and Cassandra’s backstory.
