fibyh Review of Signed, Sealed, Delivered: Lost Without You

Signed, Sealed, Delivered: Lost Without You (2016 TV Movie)

Best thing on hallmark and TV

[10/10 · 13 May 2019]

I've read many of the reviews and am disappointed by the negative reviews because it shows some people have completely missed the point of this show. Signed Sealed Delivered (SSD) has a pilot movie then a 10 part series and then a further 10 movies with an 11th announced to start production hopefully soon. Those who used to watch Touched By An Angel will know the brilliance of Martha Williamson who is the author of SSD. Are the characters a bit strange and quirky - YES! Does the show have a faith based element? YES! Does it bible bash - absolutely not! Is it relatable - without a doubt! Is it clever and witty - well you better be paying attention because you'll miss the humour and wit. The four main actors deliver their lines with such precision and I don't know how they manage to keep a straight face. To the person who said the leads aren't great actors - I really don't think you understand how hard it would be to play quirky characters such as Oliver, Norman and Rita. To the person who said they couldnt get beyond the pilot - just push forward! Martha is taking us on an amazing journey and you have to trust her - she doesn't disappoint. To those who said it's cheesy - all I can say is you missed the wit! This is no classic humdrum Hallmark. SSD is clever, serious, funny, witty and tackles life's challenges all at the same - you have to be paying attention or you will miss all this. The romance and love isn't rushed but is earnt. The character growth is phenomenal! I came to SSD by chance because I'm an Eric Mabius fan from Ugly Betty days. I loved him as Daniel and am still amazed at the transformation from playing Daniel to playing Oliver. Two characters that are poles apart and both loveable. I hope this review will convince readers who are on the fence to give SSD a fair chance. I can put my hand on my heart and say you won't be disappointed and more than likely become hooked like me and many other fans - we proudly call ourselves the POstables.
