GREAT AMERICAN FAMILY ANNOUNCES 

CANDACE CAMERON BURE PRESENTS:

JUST IN TIME, 

STARRING BROADWAY SENSATION 

LAURA OSNES,

PETER BRYANT, AND GREYSTON HOLT, 

WORLD PREMIERE, MARCH 26

NEW YORK, NY – March 5, 2024 – Great American Family, the authentic home of quality, original family and faith-based programming, proudly announces the exclusive World Premiere of a Candace Cameron Bure Presents, original movie, Just In Time, starring Broadway’s Laura Osnes, Peter Bryant, and Greyston Holt, Tuesday, March 26 (8 p.m. ET). The film is the fourth production under the Candace Cameron Bure Presents studio banner. The film marks Executive Producer, Bure’s, first-time working with actress and singer, Laura Osnes, whose successes includes a Tony AwardÒ nomination for Best Actress in a musical for her role as Bonnie Parker in Bonnie & Clyde and a second Tony Award nomination for the title role in Rodgers & Hammerstein’s Cinderella.

“Candace Cameron Bure has a knack for finding beautifully crafted, meaningful stories that she and her team nurture into great family films,” said Bill Abbott, President & CEO, Great American Media. “We are so proud to include the wonderful Laura Osnes in our family of talent and ’Just In Time’ is that little gem of a movie viewers will want to watch over and over for years to come,” Abbott concluded.

In Just in Time, Hannah (Osnes) and her husband, Rowan (Holt) have focused all their time, energy, and attention into trying to have a baby. The pressure to complete their family starts weighing heavily on their relationship. The couple is left questioning if having a child is the right thing to do and if they are still right for one another. When Hannah receives a call from a stranger, named Franklin (Bryant), who claims to have discovered an antique on the beach bearing an inscription unique to Hannah and Rowan, she reluctantly agrees to meet him to look. Franklin is certain the watch is a long-lost heirloom from Hannah’s family. In the end, Franklin’s patient approach helps Hannah see that the answers to all she seeks will be revealed in God’s time.

“In this stunningly aspirational Easter presentation, Laura Osnes and Peter Bryant will bring you to tears. With the Candace Cameron Bure presents banner, we strive to deliver to our audience deep, meaningful, faith-filled entertainment of the highest quality.” added Executive producer and CandyRock CEO, Bure.

“Just In Time” is a Syrup Studios production in association with Candy Rock Entertainment. Donald Munro serves as Producer and Paula Elle directs a screenplay by Masey Mclain & Taylor Kalupa. Executive producers also include Jeffery Brooks, Ford Englerth, Eric Jarboe, Holly A. Hines, Gerald Webb, Paula Elle, and Trevor McWhinney. Supervising producers are Michael Shepard, Johnathan Shore, and Jason Fischer, with Doran S. Chandler and Trudi Thorwalden as associate producers.

HAPPY WEEKEND! :

I hope you all have a lovely first weekend in March! I'm sooo ready for Spring to begin later this month, which you can probably tell by my weekend post title. Spring is such a beautiful season of renewal and fresh beginnings!

I'm going to enjoy a little downtime this weekend with my family. It is such a rare weekend to only have one new movie premiere; I'm going to try to watch the new UPtv movie Sunday night and maybe catch up on some other movies I recorded from earlier this year!


MOVIE REVIEW:

In case you haven't read it, I also wanted to include Florence's movie review here for UPtv's "The Single's Guidebook."

"I've only seen The Single's Guidebook which I think was on Paramount +. It's a good while ago but I can't remember anything unsavoury in it although don't take that as gospel. It hasn't received very good reviews but I didn't think it was that bad - I quite like the two leads together although the connection wasn't there at times. The lighting was quite dark and being ROE the background music was unnecessarily intrusive at times. Nothing groundbreaking but fair enough for a one-time watch." ~Florence's rating 6


SPRING BREAK:

I hope Florence's review is helpful for you in deciding whether or not to watch the new UPtv movie. I must say, it's kind of nice that the Hallmark Channel is taking this early Spring Break from new movies for the next three weeks, so those of us who are behind on other movies can maybe catch up a little. Since the official start of the March Madness tournament doesn't begin until Selection Sunday on March 17th, I'm beginning to think the cause for this break in new movies must be something else, because the basketball tournament really picks up, ironically, around the time that Hallmark Mystery and the Hallmark Channel begin their new movies again in March.


HALLMARK MOVIES & MYSTERIES MOVIES on the HALLMARK CHANNEL:

For those of you who don't have the Hallmark Movies & Mysteries channel, this is a great time for you to see some of the excellent movies from this network on the Hallmark Channel the next three Saturday nights - beginning with Guiding Emily this weekend. This movie is such an emotional, heartwarming story; I highly recommend it for anyone who hasn't seen it, yet.


SHARE a MOVIE REVIEW:

Please feel free, as always, to leave a review for the new movie premiere this weekend + any new movies this year, or even a review of any Christmas movie from last year!

Blessings on your Weekend,

Net
