I am always on the hunt for stand-out supporting characters, especially in Hallmark movies. When I watched Return To Christmas Creek earlier this month, I noticed the character, Nathan, who in some ways, was a bit of comic relief at times. I researched the talented actor who portrayed this role, and I immediately reached out to Byron Abalos for an interview. […]

Yet again, I find myself hearkening back to the phenomenal cast and crew that graced the screen in Hallmark Channel’s first original series, Cedar Cove. As I told Colin Ferguson in this interview, I was rather predisposed to not like him and find everything wrong with his character, Paul, when he showed up season three. However, I quickly discovered that his […]

Over the past few years, I have had the glorious opportunity to chat with many marvelous actresses, and there are a few with whom I have connected on a rather profound level. In the case of Nikki DeLoach, I cannot think of a more beautiful, talented, and extraordinary human being than this lovely and amazing artist, who wholeheartedly embodies the […]

It is safe to state that Hallmark fans have been in love with the delightfully gifted Lisa Durupt, at least from the time we first saw her opposite Alison Sweeney in the popular Murder, She Baked mystery series. Since that time, Lisa’s roles have been diverse and engaging, and the Hallmarkies have followed her career and enjoyed her works on a variety […]

I can’t recall a time I didn’t enjoy Disney animation. Even as a forty-plus adult, it is still a delectable treat to sit in the theater and escape into the wonderful world of Disney and Pixar. I remember going to see Wreck-It Ralph with my mom and daughter when it was first in theaters, and in light of the release of […]

I know I might sound like a broken record, but I simply adore the fact that Hallmark consistently introduces new talent to its audiences. However, had it not been for another fan alerting me to Rob Figueroa and his inclusion in the Hallmark Christmas movie Last Vermont Christmas, I may have overlooked this talented fellow. Recently, he and I chatted […]

Tonight (November 19th) is going to be a very special night for this young lady, Samarah Conley because she is starring in her first movie with the Hallmark Network! Last Vermont Christmas premieres on the Hallmark Movies & Mysteries Network tonight, and I am honored to share my recent Q & A session with this young actress! RH:  Why did you decide […]

I will never be sorry that I wholeheartedly supported Cedar Cove as I did when it was on the Hallmark Channel because without this show, I wouldn’t enjoy some of the special friendships and connections that came my way as a result of this Hallmark series. Barbara Niven is one of those extraordinary people whom I am privileged to know, and […]

There is no doubt about it. Paul Campbell is a Hallmark fan favorite leading man, and due to his penchant for comedy, we viewers have grown accustomed to his movies being consistently fraught with well-placed, well-timed humor. It just so happens that his most recent Hallmark movie, A Godwink Christmas which premieres on Hallmark Movies & Mysteries tonight (11/18), is a […]

Last year, I was thoroughly enraptured with every aspect of the Hallmark production of Switched For Christmas the moment I heard the premise, and indeed, Candace Cameron Bure did NOT disappoint in her role. Moreover, this is where I first saw Mark Deklin (or at least when I first realized I saw him), and I was quite impressed with his effortless […]
