No Helmet Required

Olivia and Will squabble. Paul and Alex date. Jack and Jeri blow up. Grace plans her own wedding shower. 

"Runaway"Grace and her hair are planning a wedding (to Cliff, not to one another). Jack and Jeri have issues with their imaginary boss at the imaginary newspaper for the greater Seattle metropolitan area. Justine just wants to HEEEELP, and Mary Ellen has the blues.

After recapping A Christmas Carousel, Uncle and the Aunties give a retrospective of the 2020 Hallmark Premieres, including top 5 lists, disappointments, and goals for 2021.

We're still in Ancadia!

Uncle and the Aunties travel to Hallmark's Ancadia because 'Tis the Damn Season.

It's a Christmas of Many Colors at America's Smokey Mountain theme park.

In the age-old tradition of marketing a new show to an already loyal audience, Cedar Cove is considering a number of spin-off possibilities. Which ones would you watch? Uncle Brian's "Stranded," Auntie Caren's "All That, and Pies, Too!" or Auntie Sarah's "On Zhe Road"? Or perhaps our podcast favorite, "Eric, The Dog"? Also, an extra special sonnet for Justine titled, "Shall I Compare Thee to an Unlocked Car?"

Baseball! Fisticuffs!

A mysterious stranger comes to Cedar Cove. Is it Seth 4?

All hell breaks loose at Olivia's waterfront estate when invited guests clash and uninvited guests stir the pot.

The whole town must gather for a town photo! Will and Warren team up for some nefarious shenanigans. Who are you shipping? #Pauliva or #Olijack?

Justine needs a job! Peggy is still on meth. Olivia just can't make up her mind!

Stories A & B in the first episode of Season 3!

Cedar Cove returns! The judgmental judge is back with new love interest. New characters to hate-watch! And a fisherman's benefit complete with grilled food bar and balloons. WHOO!

Guide to our inside jokes. Why is Seth 2 a block of cheese? Why does Luke howl his dialogue in our recaps? Is Jeri real or imagi-jeri? Did we leave anything out? Tweet us @nohelmetreqd!

All the cliffhangers in this season finale! What will happen in the love triangle of Justine, Seth 2, and Luke? And the love triangle of Cliff, Grace, and Alex? And the creepy triangle of Bob, Peggy, and Colin McFadden? And Ian, Cecilia and their half-wanted baby? And Eric, Warren, and Warren's evil business associate, Dick Turnbull? And Olivia, Jack, Jeri, and Jack's drinking problem?

Even though this episode is called Stand and Deliver, it features neither Edward James Olmos nor Lou Diamond Philips. Brian references the time he made "Cherry Orbach" ice cream. Oh yeah, and stuff happens in Cedar Cove!

Both Shelly (yay) and Colin McFadden (boo) are back in Cedar Cove. Grace stress-eats a lot of cookies. Justine and Cecilia enjoy a wholesome Jimmy Dean sausage breakfast. Jack is tested and Olivia's plan falls apart.

Conflicts comes to a head for our favorite would-be young parents, Ian and Cecilia! Justine makes a grand decision about "what to do with her life." Jack gets an irresistible offer. Fecal artist Warren Sagget gets a new girlfriend and commences a new scheme involving Eric. Olivia is tired of always being right. Grace can't decide between the Silver Fox Polygamous Cult Leader Will Jeffers or the Noble Cowboy Cliff, who has hired a new and very interesting ranch hand. Peggy's admirer grows bolder.

Uncle Brian helps us discern the parallels between Cedar Cove and The Scottish Play.
