Jump for JOY!🎉 Christmas TOYS🎄and Fashion TRENDS👗 abound on TV this Weekend! 🎮👠 See Here:

Hello Friends! Hope you are having a great Summer day!

This weekend on TV: It's the last NEW Christmas in July premiere on the Hallmark Channel, where the story takes place in a Toy Store! It's gotta be the best place for a Christmas movie, next to the North Pole... don't you think? Plus, both Hallmark and GAC Family have excellent Christmas classics airing all weekend long!

UPtv, in the meantime, has an all new rom-com premiere starring Jocelyn Panton (Christmas Time Is Here) and Giles Panton (The Christmas Promise), who are married in real-life! It's always sweet, to me, to see real couples act together on screen, like Kayla Wallace and Kevin McGarry (Feeling Butterflies, My Grown-Up Christmas List) and Alexa and Carlos PenaVega (Picture Perfect Mysteries, Love at Sea, and the upcoming: Love in the Limelight).

See details on the new movies airing this weekend and more below...

Whatever your plans, I hope you all have a wonderful weekend! We are expecting possible storms and a heat index in the 100's! (Yikes!) So, needless to say, I'll probably be staying indoors mostly. I'm hoping to catch "Christmas in Toyland," and my DVR is set for "Love on Trend." Plus, I would love to see "The Christmas Calendar" on GAC Family. I'm so glad they obtained this movie... I just love the lead actress, Laura Bell Bundy! She is always a joy to watch - in all of her Christmas movies.

This last NEW Christmas in July premiere on Hallmark makes me think ahead even more now to the Christmas movies coming this October. It's fun to see little details on social media with various actors giving hints and on-the-set pics here and there. Both Andrew Walker and Tyler Hynes are filming new ones, and Candace Cameron Bure shared with her Instagram followers that she'll be working on her Christmas movie soon! There's a lot of exciting news ahead - so stay tuned!

Which movie or movies do you hope to see this Saturday and Sunday?

Please note: I haven't 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 below. Thank you!

If your weather is hot, too... stay cool and hydrated, friends, and have a blessed weekend!

Merry Christmas in July! Net 🎄

UPtv JULY 2022 TV Movie Premieres! 💕🔥 SEE HERE:

I have great news for those of you who would like to see NEW Rom-Com Movies in July!

UPtv will be airing NEW Premieres throughout the month with Tegan Moss, Devon Alexander, Christopher Russell, Cristina Rosato, Victor Zinck Jr., Jocelyn Panton, Giles Panton, Rhiannon Fish, and Roark Critchlow.

See all the details below...


💐💐💐💐💐💐💐💐💐💐💐💐


Love on Fire

Original Air Date: July 10, 2022

Starring: Tegan Moss, Devon Alexander, Christopher Russell, Loretta Walsh

Storyline via UPtv: After moving in to her new home, Gia Summers soon forms an unexpected friendship with her neighbor, firefighter and single dad Jim Dunlap, whose love for barbecuing is equaled only by Gia's passion for cooking.

Movie Review:

💕🔥 "I watched a screening of this movie early via UPtv. Love on Fire is a nice movie with a terrific supporting cast! There are a lot of familiar faces from previous movies on UP and Hallmark. Love Loretta Walsh (“When Calls the Heart”) and Christopher Russell (“Warming Up to You”) as Mo and Karen; they are both sooo fun as a happily married couple - a breath of fresh air! They have a daughter who has cerebral palsy, which inspires the lead female, Gianna (Gia) Summers (played by Tegan Moss of “A Christmas Miracle for Daisy”), who is working on a playground project, to include inclusive activities and equipment for children with disabilities. This is a heartwarming movie the whole family can enjoy! Sparks fly between Gia and Jim (a firefighter and single father) the moment they meet at the firehouse over an old barbecue. Jim is played by Devon Alexander (“Warming Up to You”).

Two brief cautions…
Mo says his wife, Karen, is really into astrology; later on Karen says that Gia and Jim are a good astrology match, but nothing else is mentioned beyond that. Also, Jim jokingly asks Gia if she was an electrician in a past life. She teases back that she might’ve been.

Other than those comments, the movie is wholesome and family-friendly." ~Net

💕🔥 "Love on Fire is very lovely!" -Maria

Love, Fashion, Repeat

Original Air Date: July 17, 2022

Starring: Cristina Rosato, Victor Zinck Jr.

Storyline via UPtv: When Lisa returns to her hometown to seek inspiration for her new fashion line, meeting a handsome writer is the last thing she expects. Will she make time for love?

Movie Review:

👗👜 "I watched Love, Fashion, Repeat for the second time last night. Since I really like Victor Zinck, Jr., I wanted a second chance to see if it was a keeper for me. It is! His acting never disappoints. This is a nice, family-friendly movie. Nothing spectacular; just relaxing and enjoyable. I will definitely watch again." ~kitkat


👗👜 "Love fashion and Repeat was very sweet!" -Maria




💐💐💐💐💐💐💐💐💐💐💐💐


Love on Trend

Original Air Date: July 24, 2022

Starring: Jocelyn Panton, Giles Panton, Beverley Elliott, Amanda Wong

Storyline via UPtv: When Allie Ederling left her small town to move to San Francisco to pursue her dream of becoming a fashion designer, little did she imagine that the city had big plans for her… and for her heart!

Movie Review:

💕 "I briefly signed up for Pureflix several months ago and watched "Love on Trend" there. It's family-friendly! Though the storyline involves stretching the truth, which wearies me, and fashion doesn't get me super excited, I enjoyed watching it. Giles Panton always gives a quality performance, even in small parts I've noticed him in over the years, and I love finding out this movie is with his wife!" ~Alicia

💕 "I watched Love on Trend on UPtv and it is family-friendly. Like Alicia said in her review, the lead girl does stretch the truth and she pretends she has a job she doesn't. Other than that, it is sweet and lighthearted. At times, the story is kind of slow, but there's a nice ending for this couple, who are married in real-life." ~Net

💕 "Love on Trend is so nice!" -Maria

Sweet as Pie

Original Air Date: July 31, 2022

Starring: Rhiannon Fish, Roark Critchlow, Tracey Power

Storyline via UPtv: An entrepreneur dealing with the implosion of her startup and her relationship visits her family’s apple orchard in hopes of taking a break from life until she falls for her childhood best friend, and the farm's new manager.

Movie Review:

🍎 "Sweet as Pie is very family-friendly! It is the typical story where a young woman returns to her small hometown and reconnects with her childhood sweetheart, all while attempting to gain a higher position in her job back in the city. The more time Tamera spends at home helping her family with their apple orchard and trying to find her grandmother’s secret apple pie recipe, the more she falls in love with being there and her ex, Evan. Her goal at work is to come up with three words to describe herself to the committee deciding on her future position. Throughout her visit home, she mulls over what these three words will be, which I thought was rather cute. Evan says three words aren’t enough to describe Tamera, although he labels her as being “stubborn-as-heck.” My three words to review “Sweet as Pie”… Fun. Delightful. Heartwarming. It’s a *slice of sweetness*!" ~Net


🍎 "Sweet as Pie was well, very sweet!" –Maria



💐💐💐💐💐💐💐💐💐💐💐💐


Do you have a movie pick (or two?) for July? I'm going to pick "Sweet as Pie" as the one I'm most excited to see. Ironically, I have an apple pie currently baking in the oven... so hopefully, both will be really good! Plus, since we celebrate Independence Day in July, that makes me think of Americana and apple pie... so that makes this an ideal time for this movie to premiere!

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

Happy movie watching! Net
