Because of the diligence of fellow blogger and interviewer Francesca, I was made aware of another budding actor who joined the When Calls the Heart cast this season–Camden Filtness. She interviewed and featured him first, and then I decided to jump in and ask for an interview as well. Thankfully, Camden was able to make some time to respond to a few questions, […]

Because of my support of festivals like the Artemis Film Festival that celebrate “women in action,” I often have the opportunities to interview and feature women who are doing unique and phenomenal things within the film industry. It just so happens that Dawn Alden is one of those people. She has a diverse career within the realm of theater and […]

Whenever a new character is added to Hallmark’s When Calls the Heart, I love having the opportunity to feature them, but Jeremy Guilbuat (otherwise known as Ray Wyatt to the Hearties crowd) was not the easiest individual to contact. After the details were worked out for this auspicious article, however, and the groundwork had been laid, the delightful Andrea Brooks stepped in […]

I don’t know if I’ve ever made this completely manifest in any previous reviews or interviews. I love Hallmark, and I adore Beth Grossbard. We connected back during Love on the Sidelines when I ran out of time to review that film before the premiere. But since that time, she has labored intensively to set up interviews, reviews, etc. with the main […]

As a mystery aficionado, whenever a new film premieres on Hallmark Movies & Mysteries, you can almost predict that I will be in attendance along with my partner in crime-solving, my mother. Mysteries could be considered a sort of “guilty pleasure” of mine, and I was ecstatic when Kellie Martin returned to the network in her new Hailey Dean Mystery series. […]

Thanks to the Artemis Film Festival (to which my daughter and I will be heading soon enough), I recently had an amazing opportunity. In the world of stunts, Andy Armstrong is practically a legend due to the longevity and success of his career. His wife, Jennifer Caputo, is also a phenomenal stuntwoman in her own right, and both are being honored […]

Those who have followed my work for a while know that I am one who believes strongly in highlighting young people in the entertainment industry. During season three of When Calls the Heart, I had the opportunity to briefly interview both Ava Grace Cooper and her brother, Christian Michael Cooper. While both were featured on the show, my chat with Christian […]

For a more recent interview with Kevin, please check out this post.  One of the smartest things the Hallmark Channel ever did (in my opinion) was to make the decision to schedule a series of films that correspond with each of the holidays and seasons. Due to the astronomical growth within this network (and no, I am NOT exaggerating), Hallmark has […]

As many of my long-time followers know, I was one of the most avid champions of Cedar Cove when it aired on the Hallmark Channel, and it has the auspicious honor of being that network’s first original series. I made it a point to connect with as many of the actors from that show as I possibly could, and I have […]

People who execute stunts for a living never cease to amaze me, and thanks to the Artemis Film Festival, I have been able to connect with yet another phenomenal “kickass” stuntwoman, Luci Romberg. In spite of her incredibly busy schedule, Luci and I recently chatted about a wide variety of topics, including her work in the industry as well as […]
