This past Christmas season, I had the pleasure of watching Christmas Encore starring Brennan Elliott and Maggie Lawson, and because it was filmed in the Toronto area, I have discovered some actors with whom I was previously unfamiliar. David Tompa happens to be one of those, and upon further research, I realize I have seen him (without my realizing it) […]

Fans of Steven Spielberg films are probably well-acquainted with Zach Galligan and his breakout role (Billy) from the iconic 1980’s film, Gremlins. Fortunately, a new venture is on the horizon for Zach as it was just announced that he has been cast as Glen Castor in Nick Belial’s upcoming crime/thriller feature film, To Avenge. I am honored to share our recent chat […]

This is now the third year I have had the pleasure and honor of interviewing Rhys Matthew Bond (check out my previous interviews here and here), and although his answers are typically concise and precise, he is always gracious enough to give the Hallmark fans some insight into what the upcoming season of Good Witch just may entail. As we anticipate the […]

I absolutely treasured the show Date My Dad that premiered on UP TV this past summer, and when I interviewed one of the stars of the show, Cindy Busby, she divulged the news to my viewers and me that a special character would be appearing later in the season, portrayed by the indomitable Victor Zinck Jr. Upon further research, I discovered […]

A short time ago, I was contacted about a novelization of a movie that was released back in February based on the Biblical account of Samson. I was minimally familiar with the movie, but I wasn’t aware of the fact that Eric Wilson had published a companion novel to accompany the movie. While I have not completed my reading of […]

I first learned of the upcoming Freeform original series called Siren several months ago when I had the opportunity to interview Curtis Lum. That interview was followed closely by the enchanting Tammy Gillis. When my daughter and I sat down to enjoy the first two episodes of this series a few weeks ago, we both noticed this unique character known […]

Currently, there are three original episodic series airing on the Hallmark Channel, and Chesapeake Shores happens to be one of those. In light of the fact that the cast and crew are busy shooting season three which will air later this year, I had the marvelous opportunity of interviewing Jerry Trimble whose character, Mark Hall, first appeared last season. Even though […]

Although I first discovered Mike Dopud through his influential role in Hallmark’s original series Cedar Cove, Mike’s career has continued to touch a wide variety of genres on several networks. While he often plays the villain or the misunderstood bad guy, Mike himself is an unpretentious, pragmatic family man who loves his chosen profession, but consistently makes the time to place […]

If you have followed me for any length of time, you know that I adore the show When Calls the Heart, and my favorite couple is Lee and Rosemary. It was not until I met Daniel Lissing that I became more enamored with Jack (I already enjoyed Elizabeth), but the Coulters will always have my heart. Last year, I had the […]

As most of my readers know, I have a deep affinity for the young people who portray the Hope Valley kids in Hallmark’s hit series When Calls the Heart, and Jaiven Natt and Carter Ryan Evancic are two of those special young men whom I have known almost from the beginning of their affiliation with the show. I reached out […]
