Double Scoop
Girls Gone Hallmark serves up a fresh review of Double Scoop. Nora thinks she’s landed the next big thing in ice cream until her former colleague James shows up with the exact same pitch. As they both try to win over the frozen dessert of their dreams, things start to heat up and the frosty tension begins to melt. With sweet stakes and even sweeter chemistry, this movie might just be the cherry on top of your Hallmark watchlist. Tune in as we dig into all the sprinkles and soft spots of this new August premiere.
Double Scoop premiered on Hallmark Channel on Saturday August 23, 2025 (and is available to stream on Hallmark+).
