Next in my series of interviews to promote Love In Design, the original Hallmark movie premiering tomorrow night (September 15th), is my interview with the remarkably talented and dynamically intelligent Danica McKellar. Unlike so many Hallmarkies, I did not grow up watching her on The Wonder Years, but I became a fan of hers because of her Hallmark movies. I have interviewed […]

In the second of my Love In Design interviews, I am quite pleased to present to you yet another actor whose prolific acting career began at a somewhat nontraditional point in his life–Eric Pollins. More than likely, Hallmark fans will recognize him from his rather extensive association with the network in recent years, and on Saturday, September 15th, we will be […]

Welcome to the first of a short series of interviews in which I will be promoting the upcoming premiere of the Andrew Walker/Danica McKellar film, Love In Design, this Saturday (September 15th) evening on the Hallmark Channel! While this is not an official “Fall Harvest” film, it is what I like to call a “Fall Bonus” or “Fall Prequel” movie, and […]

I can remember the pilot episode of Chesapeake Shores in which we saw Wes Winters wreak havoc on his ex-wife’s life, and much of that continued into season two as he attempted to gain full custody of their girls. While Wes was never on my list for “ex-husband of the year,” I have invariably enjoyed the expertise of Michael Karl Richards, who […]

It is no secret that I love Chesapeake Shores, and I have been an avid watcher/supporter since season one. However, the character of Kevin has been a bit of a hard sell for me. Not that I didn’t appreciate the performance of Brendan Penny–come on now, he’s a wonderful actor! But Kevin often seemed overly depressed and lacked the energy that […]

Two years ago when Summer of Dreams premiered on the Hallmark Channel, Mitchell Kummen recommended that I interview a young musician friend of his, Sean Thomas, who was featured in the movie. Since that time, I have been a HUGE fan of Sean’s and seeing him come back to Hallmark for the sequel, Wedding of Dreams, is a special treat! In honor of […]

I don’t remember the exact moment I first “discovered” Graham Verchere, but there is no doubt in my mind that I have been savoring his on-screen performances for quite some time. Once I saw him in The Good Doctor last season, watched him in Deadly Deed: A Fixer Upper Mystery, and heard about Summer of 84 finally being available to the general public, […]

Although I was a youth in the 1980’s, I admit that I eschewed pop music like the plague, and because of that mindset, it has only been within the past ten years or so that I have become aware of much of the music I missed as I was growing up. A couple of years ago, I had the joy […]

Occasionally, I happen to notice an actor who has appeared in several well-known projects, and I keep reminding myself to seek that person out for a potential interview. Unfortunately, the frenetic pace of life clutters my brain and I promptly forget until that person materializes on my TV screen yet again. Fortunately, Farryn VanHumbeck has popped up in an abundance […]

When it comes to popular network shows that are shot in Vancouver, one of the most compelling parts of those shows for me is when I read the guest star credits at the beginning of the program. (Yes, I have been known to pause and rewind when I miss out the names!) As an avid fan of Salvation this season, I was […]
