While there is more going on in this sequel to the 2008 Hallmark TV movie -- Grey House is now a B&B, a stranger arrives claiming to be the rightful heir to Grey House, Gramps finds romance though his gardening, -- this goes to prove why sequels are often unnecessary. And that they often tend to be inferior to the originals. Catherine Bell's mysterious character from the first movie is no longer mysterious. The mayor's wife, plumper and louder than ever, is still up to no good. And Grandpa's burgeoning romance is a cliché-ridden embarrassment. The sheriff's two kids are a little older, which gives the actors playing them a bit more to do here. Still, this plays out like a weak GHOST WHISPERER episode. Catherine Bell is still a hottie, though. For Bell fans only.
