We would love to hear from you. Send us your thoughts or suggestions.
Brennan Elliott is back on Hallmark, and A Castle of Our Own gives him exactly the kind of story he needed right now. Eric and Andrea break down everything that works, everything that doesn't, and the real backstory between Brennan and Erica Cerra that gives this movie an emotional layer most viewers won't know about.
What you'll see in this episode:
- Why A Castle of Our Own is the rare Hallmark movie that plays adult romance and co-parenting after divorce with something close to realism
- The sandcastle competition twist that caught us completely off guard and actually worked better for it
- Brennan Elliott's personal connection to this film, including the Hallmark movie he turned down years ago when his wife was ill (the one he was supposed to do with Erica Cerra the first time around)
- Gordo, the villain who is not really a villain, and why this movie desperately needed him anyway
- Erica Cerra's 2006 Michael Bublé music video, her sci-fi fan credentials, and a few things from the interview that never aired
- Our full Brennan Elliott watchlist if you want more of him on screen after this one
