It is there Lindsay discovers the “accountant” is really Crown Prince Aiden who is to ascend the throne after his mother, Queen Rayna. Committed to the mission of the charity, Lindsay proposes a new idea based on a tradition she learned from her grandmother: each Christmas, two gifts must be given. One to keep, one to give. Veronia’s Parliament enthusiastically accepts Lindsay’s proposal for the charity, vowing to change the world in the kindest way. Now Prince Aiden must decide if the commoner from New York who has helped so many may have just stolen his heart.

  3. I really enjoyed the preview show. So many of these movies look good. I was hoping they would get the Home and Family show back together for a new show or the same show. Maybe that can still happen. There were a few surprises too some movies i didnt know about like the Cindy Busby and Maggie Lawson movies. Can't wait to watch these :)

  4. Hi Net! I’m so happy to see the return of When Hope Calls! Do you have any information on whether Marshall Williams will be returning as Sam this season? I haven’t found anything about it but that’s a storyline that probably won’t be resolved if he doesn’t.

    Thank you!

    1. Karen E J Klein, Same here! I plan to watch every single GAC Family Christmas movie. They all look appealing to me and so many actors we already know and love. Looks like they are getting a great start - and I hope many here will be supportive.

      I do wonder if a show like Home & Family would probably be on GAC Living, instead of GAC Family??? Unfortunately, we still don't have GAC Living on DirecTV, yet, but I hear it's being added to many of the other cable providers.

      Hopefully, it will come soon for us! I'm sure at GAC Media - they have lots of projects and ideas in-the-works! :)

  10. Did you see the scene on youtube with Abigail and Cody in Brookfield looking at the tree? I've missed her so much! You would think no time has passed since her last episode, except that Cody is not taller than her haha

  11. I watched both episodes of When Hope Calls, S2 E1&2. Is that the only Daniel Lissing involvement in the series as an apparition in Abigail's dream? Will he be a series regular? I hope so.
    It was so thoughtful of the orphans to ask "Santa" for a pony for the new orphan boy. Also how kind Donnie was to forgo the roadster he wanted to give the orphans what they really wanted.

  12. GAC Family will air most of their Christmas movies commercial-free (90 min. version) starting at 9 a.m. to 10:30 p.m.(CST) on Christmas Day.

    1. ~Lavender Dreamer~ GAC Family premiered 12 new Christmas movies this year with many stars you would know from Hallmark. I haven't seen them all, yet, but I enjoyed all the ones I have seen very much.

      If you need help finding GAC Family, you could try contacting your cable provider or call GAC's toll-free hotline for more information: 1-855-701-2804.

      The channel really is wonderful - hope you're able to get it! :)
