Two Single Parents Enter the World of Modern Courtship in Hallmark Channel's 'Dating the Delaneys'
Dating is bad enough when you've been at it for years, but what happens when you jump back into the dating pool after a decade or more off? You have to contend with online dating. Should I swipe left or right? Should I like their post? In Hallmark Channel's latest Fall Into Love movie, Dating the Delaneys, two single parents wade into the dating pool and learn that your wingman might just be the one you were looking for all along.
This film is filled with pun-ny jokes that will make weaker men groan while making others laugh to no end. It's the first of two films with Rachel Boston that will premiere this weekend. The other is The Engagement Plot with Trevor Donovan which premieres Sunday at 7 p.m. ET on UPtv.
Here's everything we know about Dating the Delaneys, including a Parade.com exclusive sneak peek and images!
What is Dating the Delaneys about?
Maggie Delaney (Rachel Boston) is a divorced mother who, after learning her ex-husband is getting remarried, ventures into the dating world with the encouragement of her mother Barb (Karen Kruper) and teen daughter Emma (Zo? Christie). Helping her along the way is Michael (Paul Campbell) the single father of her son’s friend, who offers to help by going on a “practice date.” Michael also volunteers his public relations expertise so Maggie can prepare for her upcoming television interview on a local program spotlighting her bakery, Sweet Sensations. Maggie’s dating adventures bring mixed results, and as she and Michael spend more time together, it’s clear their friendship could turn into something more. Meanwhile, Barb and Emma begin romances of their own. As these three generations of women explore the highs and lows of modern dating, they learn that love and romance can be found at any age and sometimes where you least expect it.
