Brendan stars in the In The Vineyard series that contains three movies with Rachel Leigh Cook.
- Autumn in the Vineyard
- Summer in the Vineyard
- Valentine in the Vineyard
All three of the movies are centered around the owners of two rival vineyards who end up finding love.
"Chesapeake Shores"
Brendan became a fan favorite in Chesapeake Shores in 2016 where he plays Kevin O'Brien, a veteran who returns home to his family in Chesapeake Shores, Maryland. Because Brendan is not a veteran, he consulted with John Tinker, a former veteran and one of the showrunners on the series to get the scope on what it's like to be a veteran.
The actor performed in five seasons of Chesapeake Shores that premiered on the Hallmark Channel from August 14, 2016 through October 17, 2021.
