Happy Birthday
to Hallmark's Movie Darling...

Candace Cameron Bure!

We so enjoy your Hallmark movies... whether it's a new Aurora Mystery ("Reap What You Sew: An Aurora Teagarden Mystery" is coming April 15th!) or a new Hallmark Christmas Movie... we feel right at home when watching you! Thank you for lighting up our screens with your sweet spirit!

We all receive a gift today on Candace's birthday... a Merry Madness Movie Marathon that ends with Candace's latest Hallmark Channel Christmas movie "Switched for Christmas"!

Unfortunately, inspite of "When Calls the Heart: The Christmas Wishing Tree" movie winning Hallmark's Merry Madness bracket challenge, it will not be airing during the marathon, as was initially announced. I understand the disappointment of Hallmark fans and Hearties, who were eagerly anticipating this re-airing. Thankfully, the WCTH Christmas movie is available on DVD and through on-line streaming.

"When Calls The Heart: The Heart of Homecoming" on DVD

(A.K.A.: "When Calls the Heart: The Christmas Wishing Tree")

For the Christmas movie marathon today
the Hallmark Channel will be playing...

"A Very Merry Mix Up" ... 2pm/1c.

Click here for DVD / Streaming

"A Royal Christmas" ... 4pm/3c.

Click here for DVD / Streaming

"A December Bride" ... 6pm/5c.

Click here for DVD / Streaming

and "Switched for Christmas" ... 8pm/7c.

Switched for Christmas is not available, yet, on DVD

I must say it is rather interesting that after they decided not to re-air the WCTH Christmas movie, they replaced it with titles like: "A Very Merry Mix-up" and "Switched for Christmas"! How ironic and appropriate!

I do hope all of you who love Christmas movies enjoy this Christmas Movie marathon on the Hallmark Channel today! May it hold you over until Christmas in July comes our way this Summer!

Hallmark recently announced- Hallmark Channel’s Keepsake Christmas Week will run from July 6, 2018 until July 15, 2018. Hallmark Movies & Mysteries Gold Crown Christmas programming block will air from June 29, 2018 to July 8, 2018! Please note: It is possible these dates may change, and at this time, no new Christmas movies are currently planned for July. However, Hallmark officially announced 22 New Christmas Movies will be coming on the Hallmark Channel and 12 New Christmas Movies will be coming on Hallmark Movies & Mysteries ... for the 2018 Christmas Season!!!

With another snowfall coming this weekend in the Midwest... instead of Spring... it's beginning to feel a lot like Christmas... all over again!!!

Merry Christmas in April, Everyone!!! Net

That's EIGHT New DVD Releases! Wow! Isn't this Fantastic! A great BIG Thank You to Stephanie for sharing this news yesterday in a comment! When your message came through, I was returning from the funeral of a dear family member, my precious uncle, and your news brought a little joy to my day, so I thank you so much for that and I couldn't wait to share that same joy again today, with everyone here!

I also hope, like you, there will be even more Hallmark Christmas movie releases and, yes... once again, WHERE are the two "Signed, Sealed, Delivered" movies they skipped? "Truth be Told" & "The Impossible Dream?" We need Oliver, Shane, Norman, and Rita to solve this mystery!!! :)

FYI -- I don't have any links to click on, yet, for pre-ordering the DVDs above, but rest assured, I will post them on my page: Hallmark Movies on DVD from A to Z - when they become available through Amazon!

Also, I've previously mentioned these, but I wanted to remind you all - "Signed, Sealed, Delivered: From the Heart" is coming to DVD soon, plus "A Country Wedding", "Chesapeake Shores" (Season 1), and "Summer of Dreams."

By the way - they usually use the same Hallmark poster for the DVDs, but for "Signed, Sealed, Delivered: From the Heart," they chose different images!

Here's the difference...

(Poster on left -  DVD on right)

I like the new DVD cover for "Signed, Sealed, Delivered: From the Heart" so much better! How about you?

The eight posters pictured above are all good, EXCEPT... I would like to see more characters featured on the "A Time to Dance" DVD cover, and I would love to see "Operation Christmas" feature Marc Blucas in uniform, and Tricia Helfer in her red dress, instead of winter wear and scarves. You may also recall, "The Christmas Card," was first released on DVD with Sergeant Cody Collins in plain every day clothes, but then it was re-released and he is now featured in uniform, which is far more apropos in my opinion, relevant to the military theme in the movie.

Operation Christmas - Hallmark Crown Media

HEARTIES will surely be oh-so-thrilled to see BOTH Daniel Lissing and Erin Krakow's Hallmark CHRISTMAS MOVIES become available this upcoming Fall on DVD... "December Bride" and "Finding Father Christmas!" (This is especially wonderful for those "When Calls the Heart" fans who don't have the Hallmark Movies & Mysteries channel and haven't seen "Finding Father Christmas," yet!)
