I was watching! Guess that makes me one in a million or two million!
ReplyDeleteYes, it most certainly does! Every one of us who watched is one in 2 million! That's an amazing high number for Hallmark and great news for all devoted Hallmark Chanel movie viewers!
DeleteNot to put a damper on things but check out Fox cable news for a day and see the deplorable condition the world is in today. You'll see more and more increase in ratings for the Hallmark channels from every day people looking for an escape and a desire for love, joy peace.....
ReplyDeleteI know just what you mean, Linda. It is sad, but true. The world is such a scary place. I keep reminding myself that God is in control. Prayer and that powerful knowledge give me peace.
DeleteI like to keep in the know with what is going on, but sometimes I just have to have an escape and Hallmark is usually where I turn... wishing I could somehow zap into that idyllic world of "The Walton's".
Just so you know, you haven't put a damper on anything... In fact, I feel comforted to know we feel the same. God bless you!
This is great news! My family loves Hallmark channel movies. We watch the old and new ones every weekend.
