Story-line via UPtv: When restaurant makeover show host Abby gets a new assignment to turn a rustic small-town diner into a place on the culinary map, she knows she’s way out of her element. But as Abby and diner owner Tom spend time together in and out of the kitchen, Abby discovers the joy of good comfort food, a place she just might call home, and a thing she just might call love.
Movie Reviews:
π "I've already seen Love On The Road and can confirm it is definitely family-friendly. Remember that a review is only a personal point of view. The plot is similar to that which we have seen many times before and certain aspects were not really to my personal taste - I found this pretty slow-moving. I'm not a big fan of Erin Cahill and while I generally enjoy Jeese Hutch (who has been pretty active recently) He didn't seem to have his usual spark. While it's just not my cup of tea I do think that others here might probably enjoy this." Florence's rating 4.5
π "Florence is so right. I feel the opposite about Love On The Road. Loved this movie and thought Jesse and Erin had great chemistry. Sweet and simple, and I like that. Erin Cahill and Jesse Hutch are two of my favorite actors. Suppose that could have something to do with my feelings also. On a different subject, I watched an old movie on UP with Trevor Donovan that I found to be a keeper. I think it is Runaway Romance. If I can find it on Amazon, I will buy this DVD. Can't believe I had missed this movie first time around." ~kitkat
π "Love on the Road is a fantastic movie! Not only is it family friendly but it has a fresh turn at boy meets girl! It was delivered and was believable due to the undeniable chemistry between Erin and Jesse. It held my attention and I "couldn't put it down". Great work to all the actors and Uptv team." ~Anonymous
π "Love on the Road is the best new UP TV movie I've seen this month!" -Maria
Love & Where to Find It
Original Air Date: January 30, 2022
Starring: Elise Gatien and Clayton James
Story-line via UPtv: Two local coffee shop business owners despise each other in real life, but fall in love while unknowingly sending each other messages via a dating app on their friends’ behalf.
Movie Reviews:
π "Love and Where to Find It is family friendly but a very unorganized story line to me. Slow pace and the ending just felt unfinished." ~Joyce in Carolina
π "Love & Where to Find Them is family friendly. Both Ava & Walker have dating app. Ava & Lena work at Kismet Bakery, Ava asks her friend; Lena for texting Walker. Walker asks his friend; Jonah for texting Ava. Both Jonah & Lena are texting each other for their friends; Lena & Jonah. Ava & Walker are into meat.

Jonah is Mystery Man was texting Lena for his friend, Walker when his friend gave his phone. Ava & Walker are smiling at their friends; Lena & Jonah." ~Anonymous
π "Love and Where to find it is very good! Looking forward to the Flirty February line up." -Maria
I know it's hard to transition from the Christmas movies, but are you looking forward to watching these new movies on UPtv in the new year? I personally think the storyline in "Love's Second Chance" sounds heartwarming, with the vintage dress shop and helping people in need that can’t afford new clothes. Plus, the others look possibly good, too!
Please Note: I have not pre-screened these movies. If you would like to post a review on whether these movies are family-friendly, please share in comments. These movies may have previously aired in Canada on the W Network or Super Channel Heart & Home.
Thanks for the update, Net!

Strangely enough I mentioned Love's Second Chance in another thread yesterday.
ReplyDeleteHas it been shown on Hallmark Streaming?
The photo on IMDB has Hallmark's name displayed.
Love On The Road seems to have been aired elsewhere before since over 200 people have given it a rating on IMDB.
I have amazing news!! My family are practically jumping up and down right now praising God. My dad had his heart test early and 53% of it works. They say 50% or more is normal.
ReplyDeleteThank you Net, kitkat, and anyone else for praying for my dad. God has been so good to us and I am so thankful He put you in my life. I am overwhelmed!ππ
God bless and love to you all! Have a beautiful Christmas as we celebrate Christ!
Oh, Abigail! I'm so very HAPPY for you and your family! Praise God for this wonderful report! It blesses me so much to hear your good news!
DeleteI will absolutely keep on praying that his heart will continue to keep getting stronger and stronger!
God bless you... We love you, too! May you have a beautiful Christmas, as well! What a wonderful early gift!
Praise God!!!
Delete~~Jane
Oh, Abigail! I am so happy to hear this. God is so good! This sounds like a miracle to me. Blessings to you and your family. Merry Christmas to you!
DeleteMy devotional this morning was in Revelation where John spoke of the golden bowls filled with prayers from the saints of God. Abigail, I have always thought of our prayers going into a great big basket, and when someone( like your dad) needs prayers, God reaches in and takes one out of your dad's basket and applies it to his needs, until his needs are met. Reading about the golden bowls of prayers assures me I am not far off. There will be more prayers added to your dad's bowl from me. God is faithful.
Thank you all. I feel so blessed.
DeleteNet, I wish you could have heard my dad's prayer. We were praying as a family in a circle the night before his heart test. It was the most beautiful I have ever heard and it made my cry. He prayed not for himself, but for us, that the Lord would let him continue to have a long life so he could care, provide, and be there for us and my mom and a spiritual leader as well. He also mentioned being there as our family continues to grow.
Thank you all, it made me feel so good knowing so many were praying. Let me know if I can do the same for you. Merry Christmas!π❤⛄
Any of these movies that takes place in winter since they are in January?
ReplyDeleteChris, Based on the posters and stories, it doesn't look like the movies take place in winter, but we'll see.
DeleteOff topic, but the movie Redeeming Love will be coming out in January and there is a great podcast that goes behind the scenes in the making of the movie! https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/redeeming-love-a-movie-companion-podcast/id1596801597
ReplyDeleteI hope you can share a post about it and spread the word!
Misty
I already watched Love the Road on YouTube
ReplyDeleteErin Cahill’s character is a reporter with her female camerawoman. Her car blocked by sheep on the road
Jesse Hutch’s character works at the restaurant
Erin’s character’s car blocked by the sheep twice on the road when Jesse’s car drive by twice
I enjoy watching the stars in a couple of the movies, so they look promising.

Jim, I have not seen a comment from you since the tornadoes. Are you okay?
ReplyDeleteLove And Where To Find It looks interesting - Florence
ReplyDeleteThe Song To My Heart (13 Feb)and Home For My Heart (20 Feb) are both from Reel One but Listen Out For Love airing 06 February is interesting, only being released then and I don't know where it originated from.
ReplyDeleteOddly UP haven't yet added it to their site but do have a trailer for The Song To My Heart - Florence
Florence, I'm also very excited about these movies coming to UP in February, plus one more!
DeleteI just posted the February UPtv movie schedule here:
https://itsawonderfulmovie.blogspot.com/2022/01/uptv-february-2022-tv-movie-premieres.html
It's also great to see Brittany Bristow, who will be starring in "The Story of Love"! She's always a joy to watch! Plus, Brittany's supposed to have a new movie this spring on the Hallmark Channel!
Also, "Listen Out for Love" is a Reel One Entertainment movie. I believe it's a new addition. Love seeing Stephanie Bennett will star in this one, who we all know as the sweet sister from "The Nine Lives (Kittens) of Christmas"!
Happy movie watching!!! :)
Thanks for the info, Net - I missed this at Reel One because IMDb are showing this as only being released in February 2022 whereas I can now see it in Reel One for 2021.
ReplyDeleteFor some reason Reel One have stopped recording if a movie has been sold to a TV channel - it gave you an indication well in advance of what would eventually show up - Florence
Love's Second Chance is pretty good. I'd recommend it for a nice relaxing evening. -Maria
ReplyDeleteMaria, Wonderful to hear your sweet review on this movie! I shared your thoughts above.
DeleteI hope that Hallmark or GAC or UPTV air the following movies from Reel One Entertainment:
ReplyDeleteLove's Sweet Recipe
A Slice Of Romance
For The Love OF Chocolates
Sweet As Pie
Kiss The Cook
I would love to see those movies, too! I've been keeping a look out for them each month.
DeletePlus, I've been searching for:
A Priceless Love
Meet Me in New York
The Clue to Love
Scented with Love
Heart of the Manor
and others!
Hopefully, they will play them eventually, but it's hard to be patient and wait.
Of the above movies it would appear that:
DeleteLove's Sweet Recipe
The Clue To Love
Heart Of The Manor
have all aired on some smaller TV channels and so will unlikely appear.
You can tell from IMDB when they have a smallish numder of ratings.
The two that I am surprised haven't been taken up are:
Meet Me In New York
For The Love Of Chocolate
Also another Jesse Hutch movie Love Bubbles And Crtstal Cove aka Romance At Crystal Cove has been aired on a smaller channel.
I'm already impatient to see what UPtv will air after Easter!!!!!!!!
Anyway let's prepare for Christmas 2022.
Vanessa Lengies and Jesse Hutch have already filmed Christmas In Trinket Town. (Ha! Ha!) - Florence
Love on the Road is the best new UP TV movie I've seen this month! -Maria
ReplyDeleteLove and Where to find it is very good! Looking forward to the Flirty February line up. -Maria
