5 years ago this month, I first heard of this network through, if you can believe it, a pro gay Hallmark user on Tumblr! It's hilarious 'fear' of the network pushing traditional values made me curious about it, and luckily my cable provider carries it!
ReplyDeleteStarted off with the very first Christmas Preview Show when it rebranded, and I've been a loyal fan since! :)
Getting to see this incredible network grow each year has been a huge blessing, and I look forward to seeing these last 5 years honored in a big way. (even though it looks like it will once again be without 1 actress that I want to see in 1 of these movies). -Maria
Sorry, it was 4 years ago! -Maria
ReplyDeleteI was just looking over the promo again and noticing the names
ReplyDeleteKatie Leclerc and Ryan Carnes listed together, so that makes me think GAF has obtained the movie, 'A Cherry Pie Christmas,' which looks like a very sweet movie!
Here's the storyline: A pastry chef returns to Door County, WI for the holidays, and must choose between her dream job and the legacy of her family's cherry orchard business - with a little help from her high school sweetheart, and a lost cherry pie recipe.
Yippee!!! This news just made my day! Let’s go! Christie
ReplyDeleteI hope we get the next movie in the Destined for Christmas series. We need to see them get married. Or just more of their lives. They have to do it soon as the little girl is probably growing up. I know it is the real life daughter of Casey Elliot. I have been waiting so long for this movie.
ReplyDeleteSabrina
so exciting!
ReplyDeleteCongrats to GAF your viewers have been through the journey and look forward to more great movies with positive content. Love Trevor’s high tops!
