Let’s talk Chesapeake Shores, shall we? If you’ve never heard of this series, I am happy to introduce you to the Hallmark Channel original series that has just entered its fourth season. I have supported this show since its inception, and Oliver Rice–who plays Simon Atwater–is one of my favorite people on the show to interview. Just before the season […]

I simply adore featuring young people in my interviews, and when I had the opportunity to interview the dynamically gifted Hector Bateman-Harden, I jumped at the chance. While I have yet to see him in any of his works, I am entirely impressed with his work ethic and indisputable artistic capabilities. It is with great joy that I share our […]

I don’t know about you, but I am ecstatic to see Hallmark’s first streaming show on Hallmark Movies Now entitled When Hope Calls. I’ve enjoyed this service of Hallmark’s anyway, but the fact that it is a spinoff of When Calls the Heart and features an incredible cast and crew thrills me to no end. Thankfully, our Canadian friends can also […]

I truly adore the fact that Hallmark has been branching out over the past couple of years as they have made a conscious effort to film movies in various places all over the U.S. and the world. Back during the network’s “Countdown To Summer” programming, a movie that was filmed in Florida happened to make the cut, and audiences were […]

The year was 2016, and I was reviewing a Hallmark movie right before it premiered on the network (that’s what I used to do before all these interview opportunities came along). Enter tall, dark, and handsome Benjamin Ayres, and I somehow knew Hallmark had struck gold. By the time he appeared on Hallmark again, I was an established entertainment journalist. […]

In the past, I have been playfully accused of “stalking” certain actors who are regularly featured on the Hallmark Network, and it should come as no surprise that Brennan Elliott is one of those extraordinarily special people. While he is undoubtedly one of my all-time favorite people on this planet and I am often rather cognizant of his upcoming and […]

I honestly don’t remember when or where I first became aware of the delightfully enchanting Anne Marie DeLuise, but I know it is because of Hallmark that I first encountered her (and her husband’s) prowess. For some time, I have watched her works with interest, and whenever her husband, Peter DeLuise, directs a movie or a show, I know that […]

When it comes to Hallmark, there are certain names that consistently promise and provide phenomenal programming, and director David Winning happens to be one of those exceptional people. A couple of years ago, I had the opportunity to feature him on my website in our first interview, and thankfully, he agreed to come back in anticipation of tonight’s {August 17th} […]

I initially discovered the phenomenon that is Erin Krakow as a result of the original Hallmark Channel series, When Calls the Heart. While it took me a little while to truly embrace everything that her character, Elizabeth Thatcher Thornton, had to offer, I was an instant Erin fan from the inception of the series. No one else could create such […]

Read my disclosure policy to understand how I work with companies and individuals. So maybe you weren’t a child actress, your parents didn’t take you to commercial auditions and modeling agencies, and you are only now discovering your passion for acting. The good news is that it’s really never too late. Some of today’s top actors didn’t even get noticed […]
