In my neverending quest to recognize young Canadian actors in the film/TV community, I am grateful when I am sent interview requests from well-respected publicists (like The Promotion People) because I am often made aware of artists in the industry I may have inadvertently overlooked. In the case of Hunter Dillon, the name sounded familiar, and it wasn’t long before […]

It’s incredibly easy for me to get hooked on a show and not once consider where it was filmed (even as I gawk at the breathtaking sights), but in recent times, I have attempted to change that mindset. Ever since making the trek to the Jamestown Movie Set up in the Vancouver, BC area back in 2017, I have begun […]

A little over a year ago, I requested an interview with Callum Seagram Airlie without even realizing who his father was (Andrew Airlie–I will also be posting an interview with him very soon, so watch this space!). Chatting with Callum was an incredible experience, and after officially meeting him at the Hearties Family Reunion this past October, I knew I […]

I am absolutely in love with all the new Hallmark mystery films that are premiering in 2019 (as well as the new episodes of the established ones), and it just so happens that Ruby Herring Mysteries was the first new mystery series of 2019. Since its initial showing, it has reaired several times in the U.S., and I understand this […]

I’ve never made any secret of my predilection for Kavan Smith and his character of Lee in When Calls the Heart. I have had the honor of meeting him twice, and this is my third interview with him thus far. The amazing thing is that this time, we were finally able to discuss in great detail a project he had mentioned […]

There are certain individuals that have been a part of the entertainment industry for so many decades that while their names may frequently escape some viewers’ minds, once a thorough investigation is completed, there is no doubt that the vast majority of people will have seen SOMETHING featuring this person’s talents. This is a perfectly accurate description of Willie Aames, […]

If you were amongst the millions who tuned in to watch Christmas At Graceland this past holiday season on the Hallmark Channel, then you may recognize Tamara Austin as the one who played Laurel’s (Kellie Pickler) best friend. I realize that there are those in the community who have made it apparent that they are not fans of this film, but […]

I have watched When Calls the Heart from the moment the pilot movie premiered, to the series, throughout the ups and downs, and I am certainly ready to see more of this incredible show beginning Sunday, February 24th! As an anticipatory prequel to the official start of season six, The Greatest Christmas Blessing premiered on the Hallmark Channel (and Super Channel Heart & […]

Because I have so many friends in Vancouver who act for a living, there are numerous occasions where I recognize various names and faces even before they become popular on the Hallmark Network. Dave Collette happens to be one of those people. Until I saw Ali Sweeney tweeting about his inclusion in her new mystery series Chronicle Mysteries, I couldn’t have […]

I think it’s safe to state that I have followed Brittany Bristow’s Hallmark career, even before I knew her name. Her presence on-screen has been something quite distinctive, and she consistently engages her fans on social media in a remarkably positive fashion. Even though she is still fairly young, her success within the industry has entertained Hallmark viewers notably in […]
