The stories told in this series are heart-warming. I realize that isn't edgy enough or dangerous enough for some people, but when you get tired of watching bloodshed and meaningless violence, you will appreciate this show. The stories are well-written, and generally well-paced. They take you all over, in the sense that they solve mysteries and reunite people and discover secrets and do not follow a "murder of the week" sort of formula.

The main themes of the episodes are love, friendship, respect. One reviewer referred to this show as "housewifey", which is insanely patronizing, but what he probably meant is that it doesn't have any bimbos jiggling their naked boobs for the camera and isn't bloodthirsty enough for his "masculine" taste. And it's not, so if you must exist on a strict diet of sex and violence, skip this show.

The main characters are more nerdy than they are glamorous, but since when is the entire world made up of models? They rely on their brains, decency, teamwork, and perseverance to get the job done. We haven't seen characters like Rita and Norman in any show that I know of (Rita has her Sheldon Cooper moments but she is a much nicer person). I find the inevitable falling in love of Oliver and Shane to be predictable, but that's OK too; watching their story unfold is very enjoyable.

The acting is good. I enjoy the work of actors who can get across an emotion or idea with only a facial expression.

There isn't much laugh-out-loud comedy on the show. It is certainly charming and will make you smile rather than laugh. Occasionally I have small criticisms of how specific matters are done in the show. For example, I thought that when Oliver and Shane were locked in the bank vault with the young banker, it was a bit of a cop-out to have the young man take a nap to make room for the private letter-reading between Oliver and Shane. However, these things are probably just growing pains, and no doubt if given the chance, this show will mature.

In these days with so much of our viewing taken up with every manifestation of bad taste, lewdness and horrid evils, I prefer anything based on decency. I prefer Walt Disney movies to most of what is broadcast today. When I am not watching a Hallmark broadcast, I am watching reruns of old sitcoms.

I can usually trust anything I see on Hallmark - though I always check content first. I like the twist of humor, and the element of hope in this series. I like the characters. The decency factor comes before "expertise" for me, so, yes, I am enjoying this series about lost letter detectives. If it were too realistic it would probably fall outside my sensitivities and I would not watch it. From a technical aspect, the music doesn't drown out the dialogue as it does in so many Hallmark movies. To everyone involved, thanks for decent entertainment.

This is a wonderful series that restores my faith in human kind. The premise is really unique with endless possibilities.

The series is based at the United States Postal Service, in the Denver Colorado dead letter office. This is a team of four...their leader is Oliver O'Toole, who is married but abandoned by his wife. Oliver is lost in the past, he wears three piece suits, has a penchant for Yoo-hoos and is a stickler for following the rules. Norman Dorman who was raised in the foster system, has a very eclectic set of skills and hobbies and an innumerable number of cousins who have connections and knowledge in a wide variety of professions. Rita who loves owls, has a photographic memory, and also has a penchant for dressing in vintage clothing. The final member of the team (and also the newest) is Shane McInerny. Shane is technologically savvy and feels like it is her job to drag Oliver into the 20th century.

Each of the team members brings a unique skill to their task of delivering these dead letters to their rightful owners. The team works together to unravel the mystery around each letter that makes it into their hands.

Letters to soldiers...letters from soulmates, letters from grandchildren to grandparents...each story is touching and intertwined with the idea that mailing a letter in and of itself is an act of faith. Faith that when you put a stamp on a letter, it will reach its recipient.

This series is so worth seeing. I highly recommend this to any one who has a heart.

I just finished watching the second episode and came here to read more about this wonderful and heart warming show. I was disheartened by the former reviewer's take on it and felt I needed to create an account to say I couldn't disagree more with his summary.

First, and foremost, thank you Hallmark Channel for your creation of one of the best new shows in a very long time. In the sea of shows depicting violence, inciting paranoia and fear, and highlighting the disconnect of our humanity, this show stands FAR above them all.

The empathy and compassion, which is so well portrayed by the writers and cast, has been sadly lacking for too long. Yes, it may likely bring tears but, it will also leave you with hope that these qualities still exist.

If your looking for edge, mass murders, end of the world drama and destruction, or a glaring representation of a lack of value and morals, this show probably isn't for you. However, if you want a story which you can sit and watch with your family I couldn't recommend this show more highly.

Thank you again Hallmark Channel.

After watching the new Hallmark series, "When Calls the Heart", I wondered if "Signed, Sealed, Delivered" would be able to fulfill the same level of entertainment. I can truly say that this show DOES fulfill the same entertainment level! My family and I truly look forward to watching this series each week. Once again, we are thrilled with the family series Hallmark has come out with recently.

"Signed, Sealed, Delivered" has a wonderful cast of actors/actresses who are ALL very talented and it is very noticeable as you watch each week. Together, they form a unique and quirky cast, each with their own standout personalities in the show. The show also offers equally entertaining and very recognizable special guest stars each week that really add a lot to the shows, such as Carole Burnett, Valerie Harper, Della Reese, etc. - all great stars from the past.

The story lines basically follow a mystery each week that is solved by the end of each show. Romance is also blossoming in the office which adds more intrigue to the show each week. Also, the thoughtful story lines never fail to give a good lesson each week about what is REALLY important in life!

THANK YOU, HALLMARK for providing another decent family series to the 21t century and giving people what they have been missing! This show is another winner in my opinion!
