Yet another Countdown to Christmas movie is headed our way November 19th, and it is entitled A Gift To Remember. It has become a popular trend for Hallmark to find quality books already in print and adapt them for their network, and that is exactly what happened with this particular film. I was honored to be able to conduct a quick […]

Back when The Irresistible Blueberry Farm premiered on Hallmark Movies & Mysteries, I had the opportunity to chat and connect with the amazing actress, Rebecca Staab. I was never a soap opera fan, so I was unaware of her considerable and tremendous body of work, but she and I had an instant rapport. When I discovered she was going to appear […]

Thanks to the lovely and supportive Teresa Minutolo, I had the pleasure of initially connecting with and interviewing the phenomenal and accomplished David Haydn-Jones. I had been a fan of his and had heard him mentioned and seen him featured in a wide variety of contexts, but it was that first interview and interaction with him that irrefutably cemented my […]

Earlier this year, I had the honor of chatting with Dylan Kingwell shortly after his film Campfire Kiss premiered on the Hallmark Channel. Because of that interview, I have become a zealous champion of his acting career, and I was so excited when it was announced that he would be appearing in The Good Doctor, a show I planned on watching anyway. […]

If you’re a fairly devoted Hallmark fan like me, you probably noticed a new face last year during Hallmark’s summer movies series in the film called Stop the Wedding, but no doubt many Hallmark fans knew about Niall Matter long before that. Hearties will remember him as the single father, Shane, who kissed Faith on their first date. And fans of Finding […]

I had the supreme joy and honor of interviewing author Robin Jones Gunn before the premiere of her book turned movie last year entitled Finding Father Christmas, and I was immensely excited when I learned there was going to be a sequel this year. In spite of Robin’s incredibly busy personal and professional life, she took a few moments recently to […]

Unleashing Mr. Darcy is a movie that always has held a special place in my heart because I have connected with practically the entire cast through interviews and more. I have also connected with some of the people behind the scenes, most notably, David Winning. During my nearly two years of interviews, anyone who has ever worked with David lavishes […]

A few months ago, thanks to the vivacious Tammy Gillis, the accomplished actor Jim Thorburn was brought to my attention (they are married, in case you were unaware). While his name was somewhat unknown to me, his talent and works included some of my classic and current favorites. As I have been faithfully following his career all this time now, I […]

I happened to be watching one of last year’s new favorite Christmas movies–Finding Father Christmas–and for whatever reason, the music suddenly captivated me. I don’t know why I hadn’t noticed it before. In my opinion, music which accompanies made-for-TV movies all too often leaves much to be desired. But with this film, the music is an impeccable complement to the […]

Well, who would expect to “discover” a Hallmark starlet at an independent film festival? To be honest, I had seen the work and the name of Aliyah O’Brien before on various Hallmark works. Moreover, I’d even reviewed her work in a Garage Sale Mystery film a while back. But until I saw her in a short film at the Artemis […]
