In 2008, Catherine Bell took on the role of Cassie Nightingale for the TV movie, The Good Witch. The fantasy film about a good natured witch, saw Cassie take up residence in the haunted Grey House in the town of Middleton.

Upon making its debut, The Good Witch proved a hit with audiences and in 2009 it was followed by a sequel, The Good Witch’s Garden. This too became a ratings success and led to a collection of sequels which helped increase the popularity of The Good Witch.

In fact, Cassie and the Good Witch films became so popular they eventually moved beyond the films and spawned a follow-up television series, as well as a series of associated specials. This further expanded Cassie’s story, and built up a loyal following in the process.

But if you are new to The Good Witch, what are all of the movies and what is the best viewing order? And once you know about the movies, and you know when to watch them, how does the television show and the specials fit into all this?

Well, don’t sweat it, because all the details will be revealed. Below you will find a run-through of all the Good Witch movies, as well as details about the continuation show and the specials.
