"Mistletoe Murders" will be back for a third season. Hallmark Media announced Friday it has renewed the mystery series starring Sarah Drew (Grey’s Anatomy) and Peter Mooney (Rookie Blue).

Season 3 is set to begin production later this year and will premiere during Hallmark’s annual Countdown to Christmas programming event. Season 3 picks up following the Season 2 finale cliffhanger, which found Emily and Sam finally sharing a romantic moment and agreeing to be honest about their pasts.

“Mistletoe Murders embodies so many of the elements viewers turn to Hallmark for: romance, community and Christmas wrapped within a cozy mystery,” said Michelle Vicary, Head of Programming, Hallmark Media.

“Over two seasons, viewer response to this series has been overwhelmingly positive and we cannot wait to bring them back to Fletcher’s Grove and to continue to reveal the backstory that has made Emily Lane one of the most enigmatic characters on television.”

“Season three of Mistletoe Murders represents everything we love about working with Hallmark: a shared commitment to entertaining storytelling, beloved characters, and holiday magic that resonates with audiences year after year,” said Jocelyn Hamilton, President, Television, Lionsgate Canada.

“We’re thrilled to continue our partnership and to keep expanding this world, delivering more of the mystery, heart, and festive charm that fans have come to expect from the franchise.”
