I just have to quickly say that I adored Mae Whitman as a young girl in the Hallmark Hall of Fame movie, A Season for Miracles. In fact, that movie still holds a special place in my heart! It makes me so happy to see Mae working with Hallmark again all these years later. I sure hope this series will be just as delightful as the preview looks!

Happy Christmas in July!

Hallmark Channel Announces New Countdown to Christmas Series Starring Mae Whitman

Hallmark announces today via Deadline: "Hallmark Greenlights Limited Holiday Series Starring Mae Whitman, Mary McDonnell & Jane Seymour"

You may recognize Mae Whitman, as the young actress in Hallmark Hall of Fame's "A Season for Miracles" (pictured above). In this 1999 holiday film, young Mae plays a little girl who has faced a challenging upbringing but is beginning to embrace the idea of angels and that anything is possible.

According to the Deadline article released today, this new Hallmark TV series, "12 Dates of Christmas," starring Mae Whitman, is based on the book of the same name by Jenni Bayliss, and will have 6 episodes premiere on the Hallmark Channel and stream the next day on Hallmark+.

Hallmark's storyline for the series is as follows, per Deadline: "...the limited series follows Saville Row textile pattern designer Kate (Mae Whitman), who lives in the quaint village of Blexford, England next door to her father Mac (Nathaniel Parker), who is long-divorced from Kate’s mother Delilah (Mary McDonnell), a globe-trotting American always on an adventure. When not at work, Kate looks after Mac, who’s recovering from a motorbike accident and is inclined to spend his days sitting in his recliner."

"Unbeknownst to Kate, her best friend Laura (Lucy Eaton) signs her up for The 12 Dates of Christmas – a holiday-themed matchmaking program in the days leading up to the holiday featuring carefully curated, yuletide dating experiences, in an attempt to get Kate out of her rut. Lovingly coerced by Laura and longtime best friend Callum (Julian Morris), a reluctant Kate ultimately gets into the spirit of the program and is caught off guard when she meets someone (Toby Sandeman) who reinvigorates her zest for life. But when Delilah unexpectedly shows up on her doorstep – literally – Kate and Mac’s life and holiday season get upended. Meanwhile, Mac may be embarking on his own romance with local Evelyn (Jane Seymour), a widow who slowly helps him step outside the confines of his house and open his heart. As Kate wends her way through the 12 dates, she takes a circuitous route to romance while also making some important discoveries about herself."


I find this series intriguing, and I’d really like to hear your opinions in the comments below. I've always believed that Mae was an exceptional child actress. "A Season for Miracles" remains one of my favorite films that I make sure to watch at least once every Christmas. It's wonderful to see her back on Hallmark for this new series!

May Your Day Be

Merry & Bright!
