Jill Wagner Shared News On Mystery 101
On Thursday, Mystery 101 star Jill Wagner went to Instagram to share a video about the future of the Hallmark Signature Mystery. She, along with Kristoffer Polaha has starred in this popular series for several years.
She started out by smiling and saying, “Hello everybody. Just checking in.” Jill went on to share that she wanted to “address something” that has “a lot of chatter online.” She also shared that there have been “a lot of people DMing me.” What are they asking? They want to know why she left Mystery 101.
Jill explained that she wasn’t going to say anything, and declared that she “loved” the mystery series.
I loved the people that I worked for, and with. It has nothing to do with my desire to do another one, or anybody’s desire to do another one. It has to do with the big boy, Hallmark.
I think that they probably are going in another direction.
Next, she said, “I don’t know. I am not privy to that information.”
For my own peace of mind, I want to tell the fans of the show, I love the show. And, if I am ever given the opportunity to do another one, I certainly will.
She wanted to know that she has “not abandoned the ship.”
I wish I could give you more detailed information. I don’t have it.
Then, the Stargate Atlantis star revealed that she was aware of what fans were saying.
I know that there are a lot of message boards and talking about this. And there has been a lot of chatter because the last episode was not my favorite way to end the series.
What is Jill Wagner saying? It sounds like she would love to continue the series. Next, she is not given any information on the series. Moreover, it is ultimately up to Hallmark. However, it does look like Mystery 101 is done.
Most of all, she was not happy about the ending of the last movie as this would be how they would end the series.
Could Jill Wagner & Kristoffer Polaha Do Something Special?
Jill Wagner did share that if the series was indeed done, perhaps she and her co-star Kristoffer Polaha could do an Instagram Live and talk about how they would each like to have happen at the end of the series.
Then, Jill asked, “What would you guys want to do?” She then surmised that perhaps she and Kris “could film our own little ending.”
Jill Wagner Sent Hate Mail About Hallmark Series
As if the idea of the series not returning was not shocking enough, Jill’s next revelation was over-the-top. After asking fans what they would want, she revealed what some people have written to her.
I’ve gotten a lot of…I guess it’s kinda hate mail getting mad at me because they thought I left the show to film Lioness, or anything else that I was doing. That simply is not true.
Next, Jill seemed to leave a very tiny window of hope when she said, “I don’t have a crystal ball. I don’t know what is in the future. I just want to let you guys know what I know. And, that is all that I know.”
However, her next message seemed to indicate that she never expects another episode.
I do love the show. I love you guys for loving the show. And if we don’t come back, I just absolutely, from the bottom of my heart, wanna say thank you so much for the support of the show because that allowed everyone who was involved the opportunity to have so much fun.
She also added that “Kris Polaha is like a brother to me. He’s like family to me know. We had a good run. And all I can say is ‘thank you.’ And hopefully, I can see you guys in something else. I know you will definitely will see me in Lioness,” She then laughed and tilted her head and said, “It’s a slightly different role.”
She then shared her love with the Mystery 101 fans and signed off.
