Good Witch may have come to an end, but the finale of the popular series also looked to the future of the Hallmark Channel. In the series finale, the Merriwick cousins prepared to face the mysterious force putting their family legacy at risk. Cassie Nightingale (Catherine Bell) and the other Good Witch stars said goodbye after seven seasons of the show on Sunday night. However, the Hallmark Channel also made a little history during that finale.

Obviously, fans are upset that the show has come to an end, but some are also celebrating. They got to see Zoey (Kyana Teresa) and Joy (Katherine Barrell) sharing a sweet kiss, which is wonderful in itself. However, this is also the first same-sex kiss ever on a Hallmark original series. Spoilers ahead for anyone who hasn’t seen the finale episode!

In that episode, the Merriwick cousins, Cassie, Joy and Abigail (Sarah Power), are panicking while trying to figure out what element they are missing. They need to power the amulet to have a fighting chance of beating that mysterious force. They finally realize what they need to put them on the path to success as the time heads towards midnight.

However, just as they start to lose hope, Joy spots something sparkling on the ground. This turns out to be pieces from Patience’s amulet. Cassie said that fortune must have buried it as she put together the pieces of the old and new amulet, giving her combined powers to overcome evil.

Next, we look at that special connection between Zoey and Joy. We see them gazing romantically into each other’s eyes on the dance floor before locking lips. This romantic kiss was a groundbreaker and the first same-sex kiss ever on the show and on the Hallmark Channel in general.

As Cassie and Sam say goodbye and head off on their adventures, fans still hope that another Good Witch movie could come out of this. A Hallmark Channel representative had told Deadline on July 9 that there are talks behind the scenes, but no definite plans as yet.

However, the rep did say, “Catherine Bell, James Denton, and Katherine Barrell, among others, are members of the Hallmark Channel family, and we are in discussions on future projects.” Fans will just have to keep hoping!
