For an updated interview with Casey, please see the post here. Being the Hallmark aficionado that I am, I am very familiar with the works of Casey Manderson, especially the works he has done for this network. However, it was not until last summer that I matched his name with his obvious talent I was witnessing and enjoying on screen. […]

So let’s talk Signed, Sealed, Delivered for a moment…only my favorite movie franchise on the Hallmark network and definitely one of my favorite TV programs ever! And it just so happens that I discovered Jill Morrison as a result of those fantastic films. However, I actually saw her before that without realizing it: When Calls the Heart, A Cookie Cutter […]

From the beginning of the Hailey Dean Mystery franchise on Hallmark Movies & Mysteries, I have been a tremendous advocate for every member of the cast, but the supporting cast always holds a particularly special place in my heart. And in the case of Viv Leacock, not only has his star risen since our first interview, but he and I have […]

Unleashing Mr. Darcy is a Hallmark movie that holds a very special place in my heart. This film, which premiered in January of 2015, was one of the first movies where I had the opportunity to interview a wide variety of the cast and crew members. As a result, the friendships I now relish with so many of these make […]

Last summer, when Garage Sale Mystery had its special limited series event during the month of August, the installment entitled The Beach Murder featured a young lady whom I recognized but couldn’t quite place. As the potential love interest of Logan Shannon (played by Connor Stanhope), Yasmeene Ball waltzed onto the screen with vivacity and elegance beyond her years. Since that time, […]

I attempt to follow the filming of When Calls the Heart rather closely, and I make it a point to follow every guest star as well as every actor I possibly can on the show. In the case of Clayton Chitty, he tweeted out that he was on the show, and so we Hearties watched for the new town blacksmith, Kevin, […]

Since I am always curious about people in the entertainment industry who work behind the scenes, when I had the opportunity to interview Hesham Hammoud, I was ecstatic to discover a little more about this visual effects artist and actor who worked on the recently-ended but fiercely popular show, Once Upon A Time. Even though this series has come to a […]

Earlier this year, I happened upon an up-and-coming actress whose works were unfamiliar to me–Debbie Sherman. After discovering that she had a significant film releasing soon, I knew I wanted to reach out to her for a quick interview. Even though it was last-minute and we had only just connected, she agreed to chat that very day. While time has […]

Being the Hallmark aficionado that I am, I regularly notice new movies that are being filmed, and since Lacey Chabert is one of my favorite actresses anyway, I was thrilled when I saw that she was the lead in Love On Safari which shot in South Africa earlier this year. Almost by accident, I connected with one of her co-stars, […]

I remember the excitement surrounding the very first Fixer Upper Mystery film that made its way to Hallmark Movies & Mysteries, and my mother and I were ecstatic to see Jewel and Colin Ferguson (as well as a whole host of Vancouver actors that I know and love) bring a new and entertaining film series to life. Recently, I contacted the author […]
