Interestingly enough, it was my parents who first introduced me to the Hallmark show Home & Family, and I have to admit I was a bit reticent at first. Why would I sit for two hours and watch a talk show? Other networks had those. But it wasn’t too long before I succumbed to the charm this show invariably effuses; […]

Although this is my fifth interview with Paul Greene (find links to my other interviews with him at the end of this article), please note that this one is a bit different from the previous ones. As some of you may be aware, Paul is an amazing advocate for ALS, a disease which claimed the life of his father a […]

Back when the Hallmark movie Love By Chance premiered on the network, I noticed a supporting cast member whom I found quite intriguing–John Cassini. This began my unofficial support of his career, and once a cast member from the new Fixer Upper Mystery series told me that John was Jewel’s acting coach, I knew I had to do some more research on […]

As most of my readers (if not all) know quite well, my heart is often attached to the supporting cast and crew of any movie and TV show, and I do my utmost to highlight these sometimes-forgotten industry professionals. I simply adore the leading ladies and men like any fan does, but having the opportunity to interview one who “has […]

Some time ago, I had the occasion to chat with Anna Van Hooft, an accomplished actress I had been following closely since her Cedar Cove days. Since she is quickly becoming a Hallmark favorite casting choice as the “other woman” in these sweet, romantic comedies. I am grateful I was able to request an updated interview to which she quickly agreed. […]

As most of my regular readers know, while I frequently interact with a wide variety of actors, there are a few with whom I have forged a deeper and stronger friendship. In the case of Sebastian Spence, that is one hundred percent accurate. Hallmark was where I was first introduced to his colossal talent, and as a result, I have […]

I am honored to feature yet another interview with a recently-cast member of the upcoming independent film, To Avenge. Today I bring you a veteran actor whose expertise and talent practically speak for themselves. Actor Bernard Robichaud was born in Boston but currently lives in Canada. He is best-known for his role as Cyrus on the Netflix television series Trailer Park […]

In today’s entertainment universe, stuntwomen are beginning to experience more respect than they have in the past, but it still is somewhat of an uphill, strenuous struggle at times. However, when I had the opportunity to interview Lisa Chandler last year, it was apparent that this was one woman who was not going to let anyone dictate to her what […]

I can still remember the first time I saw Marcus Rosner on my television screen as the affluent elitist named Charles Kensington on When Calls the Heart, and like most of the fans, I couldn’t stand the guy. I never worried he would capture Elizabeth’s heart, but there were times I simply desired him to leave and not return. However, […]

I am not certain when Neill Fearnley arrived on my radar, but my guess would be that When Calls the Heart caused me to seriously notice and appreciate his work. Many of the actors would rave about him, and when he directed all four Garage Sale Mystery films for August’s big event last year, I became cognizant of his expertise. And […]
