I actually have Rachel Boston to thank for bringing the talented designer, Peggy Li, to my attention. I noticed Rachel tweeted during the premiere of A Rose For Christmas about her jewelry being provided by Peggy Li Creations, and since I had never had the opportunity to interview a jewelry designer, I jumped at the chance. Recently, Peggy graciously agreed to […]

As long as I live, I am certain I will never tire of being that Hallmark viewer (or any network, for that matter) who pays attention to the credits at the beginning and the end of a show or film and attempts to recognize as many actors as possible within the work I am watching. Yes, I admit to “living” […]

Hallmark viewers sometimes genuinely connect with supporting actors that are featured regularly in the network’s films, and it just so happens that David Lewis is one of those fortunate guys. Although he never seems to play a lead nor get the girl, he has made a living by playing the supporting roles and doing a crackerjack job of it. Recently, […]

As a novice interviewer, I had the remarkable opportunity to interview the man who is responsible for bringing to life one of the most amazing shows on TV today–When Calls the Heart.  Of course, I speak of the talented, benevolent and humble Brian Bird. I was incredibly honored that he afforded me the opportunity yet again this year to ask […]

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, […]

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 […]
