Last year, one of the most phenomenal Hallmark Christmas movies premiered on Hallmark Movies & Mysteries entitled A Godwink Christmas. While I was new to the entire “Godwink” movement, I immediately recognized that this was something special, and it was a mode of thinking I could support wholeheartedly. I reached out to the “Godwink Guy” himself, SQuire Rushnell, and I was thoroughly […]

When Kevin McGarry first arrived on the Hallmark Network in the movie Love At First Bark, I was one of the first people who had the honor of interviewing him. Since that time, I have watched his career blossom, and he has swiftly gone from “super handsome hunky guy in that Hallmark movie I like” to one of the top […]

Last year, when I made what has become my annual visit to Vancouver B.C., I had the honor of meeting the vivacious and lovely Kate Isaac.

Of course, my followers know of my passion for highlighting those behind-the-scenes, and it is always a delight to connect with incredible screenwriters. We all know that without their dedication and creativity, no movies would be made. And that is why it is my supreme honor to introduce the gifted and vivacious Karen Schaler, who has penned the first holiday […]

Megan Turner is in love with the past. As a tour guide at a beautiful historic mansion, she tells visitors about its original owner, Charles Whitley. An inventor and businessman in the early 1900s, he rose from poverty to wealth…only to disappear without a trace. Charles was always intrigued by the future. He just never expected to go there. But […]

As I continue to catch up on my backlog of Christmas interviews, I am especially pleased and honored that I had the opportunity to speak with a perennial Hallmark favorite actress, Ellie Harvie (do note the spelling of her name as it is regularly misspelled, even professionally speaking). While the name may not ring any bells with the casual Hallmarkie, […]

I was sent a copy of both movies in exchange for my honest review. I was not financially compensated in any way and all opinions are 100 percent mine. Even though Christmas is over, as I am continuing to get caught up on the wealth of media I watched this season, I would like to tell you about two special […]

Thanks to the Hallmark Network, I have the honor of connecting with exceptional people like Jason Cermak on a somewhat consistent basis.

Making his début on the Countdown to Christmas line-up (apart from a When Calls the Heart movie that […]

She has become a fast fan and network favorite screenwriter, and before we close out our holiday season programming, it is my honor to share our recent chat. RH: Why did you decide […]
