Oh, Net, thank you for the wonderful surprise!! Kudo's Hallmark!! What a great treat for the "New Year". Kind of like a "buffer" for all the "after Christmas" movies.
ReplyDeleteThese sound cute!@ I wondered if Hallmark was going to have their line up of "Valentine Day" flicks, but it sounds like these will be their winter titles, which is awesome. They sound cute especially the Jane Austen themed one - they can modernize her stories into rom-coms anytime. :)
ReplyDeleteRissi -- They're doing the Countdown to Valentine's Day again. I'm sure it's going to be another 2-week event. It appears that the first NEW movie for that event will air on Sunday, January 31st (the last new Winterfest movie is on January 30th), and it's called (according to the Hallmark Channel website), "All Things Valentine." I submitted a post with this info yesterday or the day before, but the last time I checked Net hadn't published it. :-)
DeleteYes, it looks like the tradition continues with Vday movies starting Jan.31st! We LOVE it!!!
DeleteBtw, your first comment on it is posted now, Sherry - been swamped with lots of comments lately & so wonderfully busy with everything Christmas!!! :)
These sound like great, fun movies!
