Last year, I noticed an actor on the Hallmark network who was actually featured in two Christmas movies last year, Christmas For the Books and Christmas At Grand Valley. This caused me to do some research and come to the realization that Chad Connell had been a part of the Hallmark network for quite some time. I reached out for an […]

I am ecstatic when Hallmark introduces me to actors out there to whom I may not have paid attention previously, and tonight’s premiere of A Cheerful Christmas has done exactly that. Erica Deutschman is someone I have noticed just this year, but I was unaware of her illustrious career and her undeniable talents. Thankfully, Hallmark elected to feature her in her […]

To be quite candid, I have Facebook to thank for my “discovery” of Jeff Beesley and his 2019 record Christmas directorial work. As I was going through my updates a couple of months ago, Facebook suggested Jeff as a friend, and when I researched who he was, I thought, “Okay, he’s a Hallmark person, so we can be friends.” I […]

During the heyday of the Garage Sale Mysteries series on the Hallmark Movies & Mysteries network, I came in contact with screenwriter Kraig Wenman, definitely one of the most prolific of Hallmark’s mystery writer’s, at least, in my opinion. Thankfully, even after the unexpected discontinuation of this popular mystery series, Hallmark was able to find even more amazing mystery series (and […]

One of the things I truly cherish is highlighting those who work tirelessly behind-the-scenes in all these movies that we viewers relish regularly. One such person came to my attention this Christmas season–Autumn Federici. While I was unfamiliar with her name, the movies on which she has worked are ones that I knew and have enjoyed. In honor of her […]

Several years ago, I connected with a young man whose acting on Hallmark’s Cedar Cove greatly impressed me. As I continued to follow his career, I had the opportunity to review his work and even to meet him in person a few years back. It had been some time since I had interviewed Jesse Hutch, but in light of his new […]

Did you have the opportunity to see Overcomer when it premiered in select theaters across the country? No, I was unable to go to the theater–you’re blessed if you go to! I had heard nothing but good things about this movie, and I even gave my tickets to some friends of mine and they told me I HAD to see it! […]

When I was watching Forever In My Heart on the Hallmark Channel this past summer, I was blown away by the music in the film. Interestingly enough, I noticed that the composer of the music was live-tweeting as well, and upon further research, I determined it was high time for her to be featured on my site. Thankfully, she was in full […]

Hearties might remember the “Hot Doc” from several seasons ago on When Calls the Heart, and that is where I first came in contact with the gifted, sweet, and dashing Jason Cermak. From that moment on, I have watched and supported his career with all its tremendous ups and occasional downs, but this Christmas, Jason is soaring high. Not only […]

I believe it was Hallmark that originally introduced me to the work of Beth Broderick, but of course, the majority of my readers will know her from Sabrina, the Teenage Witch and possibly other TV shows and films throughout the years as well. Albeit, I am grateful that she was able to take some time recently to chat with me […]
