Storyline: Kayla (Marshall) heads back to her hometown of Stansville, North Carolina, after her substitute teaching job at an elite, private high school comes to an early end. On her first day back, her loving yet inquisitive mother (Maria Howell, Hidden Figures) sets up a job interview at her high school alma mater. Kayla, who ultimately wants to get into a competitive teaching program in London, is hesitant to apply. However, when it turns out that her high school best friend Tanya (Brittany L. Smith, Sweet Magnolias) is a teacher there and she is offered the job on the spot and quickly accepts. When Kayla initially struggles to connect with her students, Jordan (Truvillion), a jack-of-all-trades teacher who is devoted to supporting underserved students, steps in to help. Though reluctant to accept his input at first, she is soon inspired to try a fresh approach to help each of her students tap into their unique artistic passions and her students begin flourishing. When Kayla learns the school may be cutting the arts department due to budget cuts, she and Jordan work together to set up a fundraising showcase, with a little help from her longtime friend Shanice Wilson-Knox. Soon, sparks are flying between Kayla and Jordan as they discover a shared love of teaching, service and Sidney Poitier movies. However, when Kayla receives some teaching opportunities that would take her away from Stansville -- and Jordan -- she finds that her heart may still have a few things to teach her about what will make her happy.

Disclaimer: Please know when I share a movie, this is NOT an endorsement of any of the actors involved, personally or professionally, with their other TV/film projects.

Note: I have not pre-screened the new movies listed above. If you'd like to post a review on whether a film is family-friendly, please share in comments.

We do have one movie review in advance from Florence, who is a loyal reviewer here. She shared these details on the UPtv movie Finding Love in Big Sky, Montana:
 
"Really loved Jonathan Stoddard in Finding Love In Big Sky Montana. Looking him up on IMDB I thought my eyes were deceiving me when I saw that he has over 15 (yes FIFTEEN) movies completed. A lot of these are thrillers but several are RomComs including A Royal Christmas On Ice which is apparently airing on UPtv this Christmas" - Florence

This weekend, it's a little harder to choose, but my top two movie picks are A Taste of Tuscany and Marry Go Round. How about you? Which movie (or movies) are you most wanting to see?

I also want to take a moment before ending this post to honor the historic anniversary being marked this weekend. It's hard to believe that Sunday, September 11th, marks 21 years since the tragic day of September 11, 2001. For those of us who lived through that day, I know we will never forget it. My prayers go out to those who lost loved ones, and I pray our country never goes through a time like that ever again.

My heart and prayers are also with the Royal family, on the passing of their mother and grandmother, Queen Elizabeth II. 

May you all have a peaceful and relaxing weekend.

Blessings, Net

My Quick Take:

It was wonderful to receive this press release today from my friend, Pam, with the slate of new Saturday movies coming our way in both August and September on Great American Family! All of these movies look fantastic to me; I'm especially looking forward to seeing Love in Bloom and Just Add Love for the first time, and re-watching Prescription for Love. I love Trevor Donovan in that movie, and I'm hopeful the rest are just as good. Which movie (or movies) catches your eye? Please share in comments below.

Great American Family Saturday Movie Premieres (*UPDATE!) August 13th & Beyond! πŸŽπŸ’See Here:

image: Susie Abromeit - Love in Bloom (screen shot via GAC Media)

Great American Family is transitioning back to airing rom-com's on Saturdays starting this weekend - after a successful month of airing their Christmas movies on GAC Family and GAC Living during Christmas in July!

In case you haven't heard... beginning August 20th 13th 'til the end of the year (except Labor Day weekend), Great American Family will be airing a NEW romantic comedy EVERY Saturday night! Even better news... during Christmastime the network will premiere a NEW Christmas movie EVERY Saturday and Sunday night!


GAC Media has already announced the first two movie premieres in August...


Retreat to Paradise - Saturday, August 13, 2022

Storyline: Ellie tends to injured tennis star Jordan as he heals from a shoulder injury. He's selfish and miserable but with Ellie's help, both start to hope for a brighter future together.



Love in Bloom - Saturday, August ?, 2022


Storyline: Storyline: Amelia (Susie Abromeit) has the perfect life; a successful floristry in Chicago and a boyfriend who is about to propose. When her soon-to-be-married little sister and fiancé become marooned at a mountain retreat days before their wedding in Primrose River Australia, Amelia and the Best Man, Grayson Tanner (Julian Haig), are tasked with stepping in to save the wedding. Amelia finds new meaning in the town’s beautiful gardens, and love where she least expected.



What's Coming after August? 

Last week GAC Family released this new promo video highlighting the new movies coming in August and beyond. You may recognize some of the movies in the video, but in case you don't, scroll down below to see the movie titles featured in the video coming in September and October...




We'll start with an easy one...




One of the movies shown in the video is Prescription for Love, starring Trevor Donovan (Jingle Bell Princess) and Jillian Murray (Christmas in the Pines). Many of us were already anticipating this movie might be one of the films chosen since it was previously announced (in February) by GAC Family as coming to the network.

Prescription for Love storyline: A nurse fights for a chance at love with a new doctor and for a promotion to free herself from the misery her supervisor creates. As her supervisor tries to derail her chance at happiness, she learns to stand up for herself and go after her dreams.



Another movie shown in GAC's video clip is Just Add Love, starring Laura Mitchell (Blueprint to the Heart) and Brad Johnson (A Crafty Christmas Romance).

Just Add Love storyline: April, an uptight health-chef guru is on the verge of notoriety, but her brand of cooking is failing. Despite her assurances healthy is tasty, those who have tried her recipes disagree. Unwilling to give up on her hard work and career, April vows to reinvent herself and travels to Italy to learn how to incorporate the country’s notoriously rich culture of food into her own recipes. There, she meets Rob, a brilliant chef specializing in Italian cuisine, who helps April find a new joy and freedom in life and in cooking.




This next film highlighted in the promo clip is My Boss' Wedding, starring Holly Deveaux and Drew Seeley. The two also starred together in the holiday film, Christmas Movie Magic, which aired last year on Lifetime.

My Boss' Wedding storyline: Nicole Waters is a super organized workaholic, which makes her the perfect personal assistant to Kimberly Price, a high-powered venture capitalist. Nicole runs every aspect of Kim’s life and plans every day down to the minute, so when Kim gets engaged to Bradley, she decides to put Nicole in charge of the wedding planning. But the big problem… Nicole HATES weddings and is stuck with Michael, Bradley’s nephew, who LOVES weddings!



The last movie I'm mentioning is actually the first movie shown in the video when you see the couple riding horses on the beach. The film is This Little Love of Mine starring Saskia Hampele and Liam McIntyre (Apple of My Eye). I'm not familiar with any of Saskia's previous work.

This Little Love of Mine storyline: A workaholic lawyer returns to her island home to convince an old friend to take over his family's company - but rekindled feelings soon get in the way.


I'll be sharing more details as soon as Great American Family gives premiere dates for these films and more coming to the network this Autumn and Christmas! Stay tuned!

Happy movie watching! 
Blessings, Net
