During season three of When Calls the Heart, I often say I interviewed most of the supporting cast, and Andrea Brooks was one of those gracious individuals who agreed almost the moment I asked her. This season, when I asked her for a second interview, the girl was so busy that we only had the opportunity this past week to finally […]

As one who takes great delectation in chatting with the young people in the entertainment business, I was ecstatic to see several new faces in When Calls the Heart this season. One of those young men, Spencer Drever, stood out prominently in episode one due to his somewhat profound storyline. I was delighted to talk with Spencer recently (and his parents) about […]

A few months ago, I had the opportunity to chat with the talented, funny, and very down-to-earth Viv Leacock (read my first interview with him here). He mentioned When We Rise during that first interview, but I only knew of it minimally back then. Since his episode is airing this evening (March 3rd), I was pleased to have the opportunity to get a […]

From the beginning of the Hallmark series When Calls the Heart, Florence Blakeley has provided humor in the form of a sort of town gossip who revels in sticking her nose in other people’s business and presenting commentary on the way in which everyone lives or should live his/her life. Although she does tend to meddle, her heart is always in the right […]

Being the massive Jesse Hutch fan that I am, I first noticed Lilah Fitzgerald on the Hallmark film Harvest Moon. This past summer, Lilah happened to join twitter, and that gave me the opportunity to contact her for an interview. Upon researching her career, I realized that I had seen her during the first season of When Calls the Heart as well, […]

  In the past couple of years, as I have received a “pass” of sorts to observe and interact with the acting community, I have discovered that they are very integrated, which is a magnetic quality that often leads to a plethora of serendipitous meetings and connections. And for me, the Vancouver community has embraced me so fully that I am frequently […]

Because of my friendship with actress Ellen Dubin and my association with Kyle Hester and the indie horror film The Chair, a certain actor’s name kept popping up in my feed about whom I knew very little–Bill Oberst, Jr. After a bit of research, I realized that much of his well-known work was in a genre I often tend to eschew–horror. While […]

A while back, I became a acquainted with the work of the actor Rick Ravanello, and through watching his films and shows, I have met other equally talented and genuinely kind industry professionals. Susan Slome happens to be one that I noticed the moment her character appeared on screen in the Lifetime movie Dangerous Company. Recently, Susan set aside some time […]

Yes, I am one of the original POstables. I watched the pilot the first time it appeared on Hallmark, and had it not been for Signed, Sealed, Delivered, I wouldn’t have discovered the art of live tweeting. I always credit that show with introducing a new social media world to me. I also remember when the character of Ramon first appeared on […]

FOR A MORE UP-TO-DATE INTERVIEW WITH ERIN KRAKOW, CLICK HERE! I readily admit to being a fan of When Calls the Heart from the moment the series was announced on the Hallmark Channel. I wasn’t familiar with any of the actors (except Lori Loughlin), but that made no difference to me. I was convinced this would instantaneously become a favorite show […]
