Eric and Andrea review Pumpkin Regatta Romance, the Hallmark Channel fall movie starring Mishael Morgan and Corey Sevier, where two feuding dads, a pumpkin farm, and a boat shop all collide over a town race run in hollowed-out giant pumpkins. Yes, that is a real thing. Andrea gives it 4.5 stars, Eric lands a shade below, and both agree this is exactly the comfort food movie people mean when they say they miss old school Hallmark.

What You'll Hear:

• Andrea's farm-life reality check on chasing a tractor across a field (and a cow manure story nobody saw coming)

• Whether pumpkin regattas are real (they are, with races in Maine and Oregon)

• Why Ethan's mom Frankie and both dads make this a rare Hallmark movie with genuinely supportive parents

• The great Mr. and Mrs. debate: do you still call your friends' parents by their first names?

• The one gripe: how does Nadine not know Lola in a town this small?

• Rob Stewart (Sam Bishop on The Way Home) as a grumpy dad with range, and Eric finally placing Sharron Matthews from Frankie Drake Mysteries

• The Nadine and Ethan romance, including the dad interruption that stopped a kiss cold

• Two fall recommendations from the archives: Pumpkin Pie Wars (2016) and Harvest Moon (2015)

• Mishael Morgan trivia: her history-making Daytime Emmy win for The Young and the Restless
