"Which "Spring Fever" Movie, did you think,
bloomed the brightest?
The Hallmark Channel premiered FOUR NEW ORIGINAL MOVIES as part of *SPRING FEVER*!
Please share "YOUR TAKE" on this recent block of Original TV movies in comments below by answering these Two Questions...
(you can choose more than one for both questions!)
1. Which "SPRING FEVER" movie did you like/love the most?
2. Which "SPRING FEVER" movie poster (above) do you like best?
Looking forward to hearing all your responses!
My take...
1. Movie: I enjoyed them all, so I'm picking two... "Royal Matchmaker" and "Once Upon a Prince!" I guess I was swept away by both royal romances!
2. Poster: Again, I liked them all, but I'm giving the edge here to "Royal Matchmaker!" I love her beautiful pink dress and his uniform. The flower background in the "Once Upon a Prince" poster is stunning, too, I just wish I could see more of them, and her gorgeous dress!

"On that first Easter morning, God filled the earth with hope so real, joy so pure, and love so true - our hearts still rejoice today!"
"Softly and tenderly Jesus is calling,
Calling for you and for me;
See, on the portals He’s waiting and watching,
Watching for you and for me.
Come home, come home,
You who are weary, come home;
Earnestly, tenderly, Jesus is calling,
Calling, O sinner, come home!"
Please watch this lovely rendition of Carrie Underwood singing the beautiful hymn "Softly and Tenderly" last year at the CMA awards show. I pray it touches your heart ~ as it has mine...
Softly and tenderly... Jesus is awaiting us all to accept His Son as our Savior and come home - one day. For all have sinned and fallen short of God's glory, but God gave us a great, amazing gift, His Son, Jesus, who died upon the cross for our sins. All we have to do is repent of our sins and believe in our hearts and God does all the rest... He washes us white as snow!
Happy Easter to You All!!!
Blessings to You... Each and Everyone!!! Net
"Praise be to the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ! In His great mercy He has given us new birth into a living hope through the resurrection of Jesus Christ from the dead."
Before Erin Krakow stepped into the frontier-era shoes of Elizabeth Thatcher, popular British actress Poppy Drayton portrayed the role in the first "When Calls the Heart" movie. Poppy is now returning to the Hallmark Channel in the Spring Fever movie, "Home by Spring," developed by the well-known country singer Kix Brooks, of the popular duo Brooks and Dunn. (you know... "Boot, Scootin', Boogie"!!!) See "Home by Spring" movie details below!

Actress Danica McKellar ("The Perfect Match," "A Crown for Christmas," "Coming Home for Christmas," etc...) will be hosting Hallmark Channel's 2018 "Spring Fever" Preview Show! This is also the first year this block of Spring Programming will be under the title, "Spring Fever"!
Danica shared this hosting news with her followers - and some extra fun details...
"I had so much fun shooting the Spring Fever Preview Show for @HallmarkChannel a few days ago! 🌞 It's a half-hour special airing next month where I'll give you guys a sneak peek at the entire lineup of Hallmark's Spring movies... 🌿 Gorgeous set, right? Amazing flowers, right? And don't I look all warm and spring-like? Guess what? ...It was **FREEZING** that day! ⛄⛄⛄I mean seriously, look at how the crew is dressed (see below!)- jackets, scarves, wool hats!! 😂 In between takes I had a warm coat, but every time that chilling, icy wind picked up in the middle of a shot, I had to pretend it was a warm spring breeze, haha! 😂😂 Well, if I did my job, you'll never see my chattering teeth but only come away with a happy, springtime warmth in your heart...😉 Airs Saturday March 10th at 11pm on @hallmarkchannel! 😘
-Danica McKellar, via Instagram
Danica also shared this lovely screen-shot from the "preview show" set:
The bicycle reminds me of simple spring and summer days... warm sunshine, eating popsicles and drinking lemonade. It also brings to mind the sweet promo commercials Lacey Chabert made last year for Hallmark Channel's "Spring Fling"! She had a pretty bicycle, as well, filled with flower blossoms and a beautiful yellow dress...
In the spring décor with Danica this year, you can also see the Royal Albert Old Country Roses Tea Set. My Momma has a collection of these pieces and they are so beautiful.
It's such a lovely springtime set, one would never guess by looking at it, how cold it was to film. It's kind of ironic that the Winterfest preview show, hosted by Lori Loughlin, was in a warm setting, indoors, by the fireplace. I'm sure Danica will make us all believe it's a beautiful warm spring day! (Looks like the ideal setting for her sweet butterfly children's book Ten Magic Butterflies! Which, I might add, has excellent reviews on Amazon!)
Danica will be previewing four new Spring movies... "The Sweetest Heart," "Royal Matchmaker," "Home by Spring," and "Once Upon a Prince."
*BONUS* - The preview show will also include a special sneak peek of Hallmark's Countdown to Christmas!!!
UPDATE: It was revealed in the "Spring Fever Preview Show..." there will be 22 NEW Hallmark Channel Christmas Movies and 12 NEW Hallmark Movies & Mysteries Christmas Movies coming later this year for the 2018 Holiday Season, which begins once again in October!
Be sure to tune into the 2018 Spring Fever Preview Show hosted by Danica McKellar Saturday March 10th, 2018 at 11pm/10c. on the Hallmark Channel!
