Anna Van Hooft is the kind of dependable supporting player Hallmark keeps calling back, never the name above the title across her 13 films but reliably in the mix. She works the mystery and big-city corner of the lineup more than the snowed-in small town, though four of her titles do land at Christmas. Her best-reviewed outing is Real Murders: An Aurora Teagarden Mystery from 2015, which at 6.8 sits just above her solid 6.4 average. She plays things straight, no broad winking, which suits the cozy-procedural rooms she tends to turn up in. No single co-star shows up often enough to call a regular partner, so she moves from cast to cast rather than locking into one duo. If you watch enough of these, you have seen her, and she has quietly been part of the furniture for years.
