Within the Mystery Wheel Franchise for 2015, is a three-part, two-hour series of films airing in alternation of each other. Hallmark Movie Channel is pleased to announce that the first movie of the franchise will be “Garage Sale Mystery,” starring Lori Loughlin (“When Calls the Heart,” “Full House”), which originally premiered on Hallmark Channel September 14, 2013. Millions flocked to watch the premiere of “Garage Sale Mystery” and in an effort to be part of Hallmark Movie Channel’s re-branding initiative of Movies and Mysteries, the company has decided that the series of movies would most appropriately fit Hallmark Movie Channel’s Mystery Wheel Franchise. “Great mysteries have always been a strong part of Hallmark Movie Channel’s brand,” said Michelle Vicary, EVP, Programming for Hallmark Channel and Hallmark Movie Channel. “The nature of the franchise compels viewers to come back for more suspenseful action from their favorite characters each week and become invested in each series’ thrilling extended storylines,” concluded Vicary. In “Garage Sale Mystery,” Lori Loughlin will star as Jennifer Shannon, an expert garage sale treasure hunter, who has a keen eye for detail and natural problem solving instincts, which inspire her to help the police solve mysteries and crime. The movie franchise will continue to follow Jennifer as she scours the sales for hidden treasures and clues. The second wheel stars Dylan Neal (“Debbie Macomber’s Cedar Cove”) who will star in and executive produce, “The Gourmet Detective,” based on the series of books by Peter King. Neal’s real- life wife Becky Southwell will write the movies about the chef turned culinary sleuth. In “The Gourmet Detective,” a culinary whiz uses his mastery of food, drink and cooking to solve crimes of the culinary world. Whether it’s the theft of a valuable recipe or a suspicious murder in the middle of a five-star restaurant, his insight, skills and encyclopedic knowledge of all things edible always lead him to the culprit. Along with Dylan Neal, Joel Rice, Michael Prupas and Becky Southwell are all executive producers. The third component to the movie series will be announced shortly. Crown Media Family Networks, home of Hallmark Channel and Hallmark Movie Channel, first created a Mystery Wheel Franchise on Hallmark Channel, which were some of the network’s biggest ratings earners. The highly-rated movie series included “Mystery Woman,” starring Kellie Martin, “McBride” starring John Larroquette, “Jane Doe” with Lea Thompson and “Murder 101” featuring Dick Van Dyke.

  • JOE KRAEMER Composer
    JOE KRAEMER Composer Joe Kraemer has worked with various reputable filmmakers including JJ Abrams, Channing Tatum, John Sayles, Tom Cruise, Georgia Tennant & Douglas Trumbull. Joe’s music can be heard in well-known feature films including Jack Reacher, Mission: Impossible – Rogue Nation, The Way of the Gun and TV shows including the Romanian cop satire Comrade Detective (TV Series) directed by Rhys Thomas for A24 on Amazon Prime and the supernatural Creeped Out (TV Series) co-produced by BBC & DHX Media. Most recently he wrote the music to the dramatic thriller The Man Who Killed Hitler & Then Bigfoot directed by Robert Krzykowski and starring Sam Elliott, released in theaters February 8th, 2019. Joe has been scoring films since the age of 15, when he composed the soundtrack for high school classmate Scott Storm’s The Chiming Hour, a feature-length indie shot on Super 8 in 1986. It was during this time that he first met a young writer named Christopher McQuarrie, a meeting that would lead to three career-defining projects for Kraemer, The Way of the Gun, Jack Reacher, and the upcoming Mission: Impossible – Rogue Nation. Kraemer would leave high school behind to attend the renowned Berklee School of Music in Boston to study Film Composing. Kraemer’s first real ‘industry’ gig was scoring the NBC/Warner Brothers pilot The Underworld, written and produced by Christopher McQuarrie, shortly following McQuarrie’s Oscar win for The Usual Suspects. Though the series was not picked up, the pilot was repurposed as a TV movie, where it has gained a small, cult following.
