- Hallmark Announces September 2025 Lineup for "Fall into Love" Movie Event!
Hallmark's annual Fall into Love movie event kicks off in September and lasts until Countdown to Christmas gets underway in late October. Hallmark has announced the details for the September movie lineup, but if you have Hallmark+, you may have seen a few of them already. The Groomsman: First Look Premieres: September 6 at 8pm Eastern on Hallmark Channel Starring: B.J. Britt, Heather Hemmens, Jonathan Bennett and Tyler Hynes Image: Hallmark Media PLOT: A cautious pediatrician and an overseas doctor, meet at a wedding in Philadelphia, but the long distance, family, and their friends may hinder their budding romance. All THREE Groomsmen movies will premiere for the first time on Hallmark Channel throughout September, but they previously aired on Hallmark+ in 2024. That's good news for Hallmark fans who don't subscribe to the service and haven't seen them, but potentially a huge letdown for those who were looking forward to a new batch of movies. The Groomsman: Second Chances Premieres: September 13 at 8pm Eastern on Hallmark Channel Starring: Jonathan Bennett, Alexander Lincoln, Tyler Hynes, and BJ Britt Image: Hallmark Media PLOT: Danny finds the courage to admit his romantic feelings for his best friend, when he is asked to be the best man at his wedding in Greece. This movie is evidence that Hallmark is losing its way from providing wholesome, family-friendly content. Instead, this movie celebrates the perversion of homosexuality and tries to normalize what the Bible calls sin that separates people from God for all eternity. It's interesting that, as of this writing, Hallmark's online Fall into Love schedule on their website excludes the plot description and "accidentally" duplicates the plot summary for the Tyler Hynes' installment. Maybe Hallmark will catch this and fix it, but is the accident intentional? Are they worried viewers won't tune in if they know that this movie is about two MEN getting married? It's too sad to watch a movie that glamorizes and applauds sin, sugar-coating the brevity of the eternal consequences it produces. Mystery Island: House Rules Premieres: September 14 at 8pm Eastern on Hallmark Channel Starring: Elizabeth Henstridge and Charlie Weber. Image: Hallmark Media PLOT: Mystery Island success raises plans of expansion, and the Island team meets their Mystery Mountain counterparts for a friendly murder game, but the fun ends with a murder in plain sight. Does anyone enjoy the Mystery Island franchise? Let me know in the comments. On my Facebook page of 126K+ Hallmark fans, the opinion of the majority has been a thumbs-down for this series, especially since Henstridge has zero onscreen charisma. The Groomsman: Last Dance Premieres: September 20 at 8pm Eastern on Hallmark Channel Starring: Tyler Hynes, Elena Rusconi, BJ Britt, and Jonathan Bennett Image: Hallmark Media PLOT: Jackson moves to Italy to be near his daughter, but a chance meeting with cafe owner Gabriella, and some meddling friends, may lead to a second chance at love. This installment caps off the trilogy and stars Tyler Hynes--one of the Hunks of Hallmark who tops the lists of many fans! Adventures in Love & Birding Premieres: September 27 at 8pm Eastern on Hallmark Channel Starring: Rachel Boston and Andrew Walker PLOT: A single mom agrees to be the partner of a bird enthusiast for a birding competition but misunderstands the assignment and tells everyone she's his new girlfriend instead of just his teammate. This movie is based on the novel by Sarah T. Dubb titled Birding with Benefits , and it sounds like it has the potential to be a fun one! Hallmark's Fall into Love 2025 Is Missing One Thing: Fall Vibes! Maybe we've had enough of small-town fall festivals and movies about fruit orchards, but it would have been nice if the September movies boasted gorgeous fall landscapes with a sprinkling of pumpkin spice! As it stands, three of the five movies are recycled from Hallmark+ and the other two aren't set in the Fall, so the lineup is a bit disappointing. Don't lose heart, though! At least TWO movies will premiere in October, as Hallmark's Fall into Love 2025 continues. One is Home Turf starring Nikki DeLoach and Warren Christie , and it includes football, so that's more fall-ish. The second new one is Haul Out the Halloween with Lacey Chabert and the gang from Evergreen Lane. More info on those two movies will be coming soon! Follow Our Facebook Page!

Great American Family fans deeply appreciate the network's commitment to providing programming that supports faith, family, and values in a culture that embraces the opposite! Despite the faithful support of fans, many are weary of watching the SAME movies on a loop. As Great American Family approaches its 5-year anniversary, fans expect a steady stream of new movies on a regular basis--not just at Christmas. In the meantime, Great American Family is filling the void with older movies that the network has acquired. The four movies making their Great American Family premiere in August aren't new, and they are only 3-star movies, which means they are likely incredibly average. At least they are DIFFERENT! The original series, Crossroad Springs , is the most appealing option from Great American Family this August, as it boasts a wonderful cast and storyline, and it is NEW! Follow Our Facebook Page!

- Great American Family Adds "A Christmas List of Blessings" to the 2025 Holiday Lineup!
Two of our favorite Great American Family actors will be returning again this year in a new Christmas movie that encapsulates the true meaning of the season. Great American Family recently announced that Christopher Russell and Shae Robins will headline the all-new original feature A Christmas List of Blessings . Image: Great American Media Great American Family originally posted a teaser video to their social media platforms showing Christopher Russell but only the BACK of his co-star, which left fans guessing the identity of his onscreen love interest. Judging from the hair, I thought it would be Jillian Murray, since she inked a multi-picture, multi-year deal with Great American Family in 2024. Others guessed Danica McKellar and Jen Lilley, but we were wrong! Shae Robins is a beloved Great American Family regular, having starred in Identical Love , Love in Aruba , two Destined at Christmas movies, and Passport to Love . Fans are thrilled that she will return in 2025 for what will surely become a seasonal favorite! Christopher Russell's Great American Family movies include A Lot Like Christmas , A Dash of Christmas , Peppermint and Postcards , A Vintage Christmas , and a role in the series When Hope Calls . What Is A Christmas List of Blessings About? Here's the plot of A Christmas List of Blessings , per Great American Family's website: Natalie (Robins), a children’s book illustrator struggling with creative burnout, finds unexpected inspiration when she comes across a little girl’s Christmas gift list. Unlike other children’s Christmas lists, Caroline writes her list of heartfelt prayers to Jesus, requesting blessings for her family, friends, and community – including one to ask that her recently widowed dad (Russell) will find happiness again. Touched by Caroline’s list, Natalie begins to secretly fulfill each blessing. In turn, she is inspired to create a new character, Adeline the Angel, to illustrate the ways Jesus quietly works through everyday people to answer prayers with love and grace. The premise of a writer struggling with burnout is a common romcom trope, but the idea of Jesus working through ordinary people for His purposes is what makes the story unique and fitting for the Christmas season. Bill Abbott, CEO of Great American Family, Weighs in on A Christmas List of Blessings Bill Abbott never abandons his vow to be a network that provides "entertainment without compromise." He recently appeared on Crossmap Podcast where he emphatically explained what that means, stating it's about " not compromising on our values, not compromising on traditions, being consistently supportive of faith, family and country and not compromising on quality, which is very important to us.” Bill Abbott--CEO of Great American Family A Christmas List of Blessings will continue Great American Family's commitment to wholesome entertainment. Abbott shares that A Christmas List of Blessings is "a heartfelt film about the miracles that happen when people come together for the greater good, and it is a powerful reminder of why we celebrate the season.” Abbott further expounds that the movie is “rooted in faith, family, and community, [and] exemplifies what makes Great American Christmas stand apart from other holiday movie events. Great American Christmas original films reflect the true meaning of the season with heart, purpose, and authenticity." Great American Christmas will be celebrating its 5th anniversary in 2025, and that is a big milestone! No word yet on the official launch date for the holiday movie season, but it will likely be mid-to-late October. Rival network, Hallmark, has hinted that Countdown to Christmas will kick off on October 17, so it's safe to assume Great American Family's timeline will be close to that date. Follow Our Facebook Page! I love Great American Family because there are never any unwelcome "surprises" in their content. During the Christmas season, the content of other channels fixates on secular activities, consistently abandoning the true meaning of Christmas, which guts programs of heart, substance, and value. Great American Family movies are uplifting, inspiring, and point to Jesus without ever sounding "preachy."

- "Providence Falls" Time Travel Trilogy Coming to Hallmark Channel in August 2025 for "Summer Nights" Event
Many fans who follow my social media pages have been grumbling (and rightly so) that many recent Hallmark movies have been falling short of their expectations. With innumerable romance novels on the market, I have always maintained that Hallmark movies based on books are better. Scriptwriters who find themselves stuck in a recycled loop of movie tropes need only turn to published authors for fresh takes on storytelling. Today, Deadline broke the news that Hallmark has adapted the three-book series, Providence Falls , by Jude Deveraux and Tara Sheets into a trilogy that will premiere on Hallmark Channel in August during the network's annual "Summer Nights" event. Who Will Star in Hallmark's Providence Falls ? Headlining Providence Falls are Katie Stevens, Lachlan Quarmby, and Evan Roderick. Collin Stark/Courtesy/Getty It appears that Hallmark is attempting to introduce new talent, as Stevens and Quarmby have not appeared previously on any of the network's channels. Roderick is the only familiar face--he has enjoyed several supporting roles on Hallmark as well as been cast in the lead in such movies as Leah's Perfect Gift , Sealed with a List , and Autumn in the City . Hallmark fans struggle to adjust to new faces on Hallmark, but if these actors perform well, fans will warm to them. What Is Providence Falls About? Set in 1844 Ireland, Providence Falls revolves around Liam O’Conner (Quarmby), a rogue and a thief, who falls in love with Cora McLeod (Stevens), a fiery but sheltered aristocrat’s daughter, who is promised in marriage to a man she barely knows. Their plan to make a new life together in America is thwarted, and the consequences of Liam and Cora’s unlikely love ripples through time, causing everyone to relive the events of the past. Now the Angels of Destiny need Liam’s help to set things right and if he doesn’t succeed, his very soul is on the line. They transport Liam to present day to help this incarnation of Cora fall in love with Finn (Roderick), the man she was destined to marry in 1844. Liam would give anything to reunite with his beloved Cora but only he retains the memories of their past together. Now a cop in Providence Falls, Oregon, Cora feels an inexplicable connection to Liam, who is introduced as her new partner. And as they tackle a big case together, Liam sees the same passion and adventurous nature in Cora that he had fallen in love with. With everyone’s lives at stake, Liam must overcome unexpected and otherworldly obstacles in his mission. Perhaps none as powerful as his own undying love for Cora. When Will Providence Falls Air on Hallmark Channel? Summer Nights is the annual Hallmark event that follows Christmas in July . The first movie in the trilogy is set to air on August 2, at 8pm Eastern on Hallmark Channel and then the following day on Hallmark+. Jessica Callahan , Hallmark's VP of Programming, promises, “Hallmark viewers will be swept into the mystery, gorgeous period costumes, and most of all, the epic romance.” Providence Falls Is Based on the 3-Book Series by Jude Deveraux and Tara Sheets If you're a bookworm, you may want to read the books in advance so you can see if Hallmark does the series justice! BOOK ONE: CHANCE OF A LIFETIME Click on image to view on Amazon. In 1844 Ireland, Liam O’Connor, a rogue and a thief, fell madly in love with a squire’s daughter and unwittingly altered the future. Shy and naive Cora McLeod thought Liam was the answer to her prayers. But the angels disagreed, and they’ve been waiting for the right moment in time to step in. Now Liam finds himself reunited with his beloved Cora in Providence Falls, North Carolina. The angels have given Liam a task. He must make sure Cora falls in love with another man—the one she was supposed to marry before Liam interfered. But this Cora is very different from the innocent girl who fell for Liam in the past. She’s a cop and has a confidence and independence he wasn’t expecting. She doesn’t remember Liam or their past lives, nor is she impressed with his attempts to guide her in any way. Liam wants Cora for himself, but with his soul hanging in the balance, he must choose between a stolen moment in time or an eternity of damnation. BOOK TWO: AN IMPOSSIBLE PROMISE Click on image to view on Amazon. Liam O’Connor has one purpose in this life—to push the woman he loves into the arms of another man. The Irish rogue unknowingly changed the course of destiny when he fell in love with Cora McLeod over a century ago. Their passion was intense, brief and tragic. And the angels have been trying to restore the balance of fate ever since. Now police officers in Providence Falls, North Carolina, Liam and Cora are partners on a murder investigation. The intensity of the case has drawn them closer together—exactly what Liam is supposed to avoid. The angels have made it clear Cora must be with Finley Walsh. But headstrong Cora makes her own decisions and she’s starting to have feelings for Liam—the only thing he’s ever really wanted. Liam knows this is the last chance to save his soul. But does he love Cora enough to let her go? BOOK TWO: THIEF OF FATE Click on image to view on Amazon. When Liam O’Connor stole Cora McLeod from her destined soul mate, Finley Walsh, in 1844, he changed the course of history. Now Liam has been given three months to set things right, but he has failed to reunite Cora and Finn. And with time running out, things are looking worse than ever. As the three investigate a murder case together, they are caught in a devilish love triangle. Finn has always loved Cora. She has finally realized she wants Liam. And Liam knows he has no choice but to push Cora away if he has any hope of avoiding eternal damnation. The angels have made it clear—balance must be restored. As Liam tries desperately to make amends, he realizes his actions in the past have put them all in grave danger. And, once again, someone will pay the ultimate price.

- Great American Media Announces Start of Production of "Home Sweet Christmas Wedding" Starring Candace Cameron Bure and Cameron Mathison
Home Sweet Christmas starring Candace Cameron Bure and Cameron Mathison is one of Great American Family's biggest hits from the 2024 Christmas season. Fans will learn what happens next for Sophie and Sam as their love story continues in the sequel, Home Sweet Christmas Wedding --the working title of the second installment, which is set to premiere in 2025 as part of the Great American Christmas 5th anniversary celebration on both Great American Family and Pure Flix. The Plot of Home Sweet Christmas Wedding The original film, Home Sweet Christmas, followed Sophie Marlow, a successful M&A lawyer who returns to her hometown of Waynesbridge, Washington, after inheriting 60% of her great uncle’s maple farm. There, she reconnects with childhood friend, Sam, who has inherited the remaining 40%. The shared inheritance leads them to rediscover their past and consider a new future. In Home Sweet Christmas Wedding , the snow falls gently on Sophie's and Sam's hometown, sweeping them up into the magic of the Christmas season—only this time, it’s through the lens of a movie being filmed about their very own love story. At first, the process of art imitating life is like a fairy-tale, but soon, the challenges of making the film start to threaten Sam and Sophia’s real-life wedding plans or lack thereof. With the studio threatening to pull the plug and the couple feeling disconnected, Sam’s dream job is quickly turning into a Christmas nightmare. The couple must look within themselves to recapture the spark that made their story worth telling in the first place. Will this blockbuster leave their story (and Sam’s career) on the cutting room floor, or be a classic for generations to come? Image: Great American Media Bill Abbott and Candace Cameron Bure Share Thoughts on Home Sweet Christmas Wedding " Home Sweet Christmas Wedding is a celebration of love, second chances, and the magic of moviemaking. We are delighted to reunite Candace Cameron Bure and Cameron Mathison for this heartwarming film coming to Great American Christmas 2025. Sophie and Sam’s love story is both fresh and nostalgic and absolutely made for the movies,” said Bill Abbott , President & CEO, Great American Media. “It is such a joy to reunite with my good friend and co-star, Cameron Mathison, to share the next chapter of Sam and Sophia’s epic love story.

- Check Out the Lacey Chabert Hallmark Movies Included in DVD COLLECTIONS!
Lacey Chabert continues her reign as the Queen of Hallmark with no sign of passing on the crown. Her warmth, kindness, and charm combined with her immense talent and creativity are the perfect confections for the Hallmark brand. With over 40 movies and a Hallmark+ series to her credit, she has achieved iconic romcom status. Chabert's individual movies have been released to DVD over the years, but many of her most beloved films are currently available in DVD compilations that are more affordable than purchasing them separately. We're sharing them below but take advantage of the offer while the collections are still available--they often disappear without warning. Hallmark Channel's Lacey Chabert 6-Movie Collection It's almost impossible to pick a "favorite" Lacey Chabert movie because they are ALL tremendous hits; however, The Color of Rain included in this set is hard to beat. The movie is based on the true story of Gina and Michael Spehn and really tugs at the heartstrings. Click on the image to order on Amazon. Here's what you get in this Lacey Chabert DVD collection: The Color of Rain Co-Starring Warren Christie When Matt Kell, husband and father to two young boys, succumbs to terminal cancer on Christmas day 2005, his widow, Gina (Lacey Chabert) is left to cope with the pain of his loss. Wanting to be close to her kids, Gina starts to volunteer at their elementary school and meets the Spehn children, Jack, Danny and Charlotte. In a tragic coincidence, just weeks after Matt’s death, the Spehns' mom, Cathy, was also suddenly taken by cancer, leaving her distraught husband, Michael (Warren Christie), to care for their three kids on his own. Sensing the hopelessness in Michael that she so recently saw in herself, Gina reaches out to him and his kids and the two families begin to forge an unlikely friendship. During the year that follows, the lives of the two families become intertwined as they learn to lean on each other, beginning to heal with laughter, compassion and faith. The movie is based on the real-life story of Michael and Gina Spehn. By now, most Hallmark fans know that the beauty of this movie lies in the fact that it's based on a true story. If you haven't read the poignant book written by the Spehns, you can still order it here . The Dancing Detective: A Deadly Tango Co-Starring Will Kemp Lacey and Will captured our hearts when they danced into love in 2020's Christmas Waltz , and fans wanted more! Will pitched his idea to Hallmark about a dancing detective duo, and this cozy mystery was birthed! While Hallmark Mystery hasn't followed up with a second installment, the first one lands into this fun DVD collection. If you've never seen it, here what it's about: Constance Bailey is a no-nonsense detective who prefers to work alone. When a high-profile CEO is murdered on the eve of his company’s corporate event in Malta – a high stakes ballroom competition between senior executives – Detective Bailey is sent undercover as one of the contestants. The only problem? She can’t dance. To convincingly compete, she must team up with charismatic and free-spirited performer Sebastian Moore. But with a killer on the loose and a growing list of suspects, it’s going to take more than a little fancy footwork to solve this case. My Secret Valentine Co-Starring Andrew Walker This 2018 romcom is still swoon-worthy! In My Secret Valentine , a young woman takes advice from the chalkboard notes that her mysterious house rental tenant leaves when a slick sales rep arrives with plans to buy her family’s prized winery. Winter in Vail Co-Starring Tyler Hynes While this Lacey Chabert DVD collection features many Hunks of Hallmark , Tyler Hynes fans (or Hynies ) will be delighted that TWO of the movies feature one of their all-time favorite heart throbs. In this movie, Chelsea inherits a house in Vail. She meets Owen and gets a much-needed break. Together, they put on Strudelfest to highlight the charm of Old Vail. Sweet Carolina Co-Starring Tyler Hynes Marketing executive, Josie, returns home when she becomes the unexpected guardian of her niece and nephew. While there, she reconnects with Cooper, her high school boyfriend. The movie is a little sad, but it is also uplifting and redemptive. Groundswell Co-Starring Ektor Rivera This is my least favorite Chabert movie of all time. I don't appreciate that a gay sub-plot is included and that Lacey compromises her own Christian beliefs to sanction this film. The scenery is beautiful, but her chemistry with her co-star lags. Still, the price for the collection is fantastic, so I just skip this one. PLOT: On the heels of a personal and professional setback, Chef Emma travels to Hawaii where she meets Ben, a handsome, reclusive surf instructor whose lessons help her to regain her footing. ORDER HALLMARK CHANNEL'S LACEY CHABERT 6-MOVIE COLLECTION HERE Hallmark Channel's Lacey Chabert Triple Feature The second Lacey Chabert DVD collection is equally stellar, and while all three movies are fan-favorites, the highlight is Love, Romance & Chocolate . Love, Romance & Chocolate Co-Starring Will Kemp This 2019 movie plays frequently on Hallmark Channel, but it's a classic that never gets old! It's about New York accountant Emma Colvin getting heartbroken when her boyfriend leaves her before their planned romantic getaway to Belgium for Valentine’s Day. Convinced by a friend to go alone on the trip, Emma has the adventure of a lifetime when her Belgian innkeeper introduces her to renowned chocolatier, Luc Simon. Luc and his fellow chocolatiers are in the midst of a competition to create the most romantic chocolate in Belgium for the upcoming Belgian royal wedding. He discovers her kitchen skills and soon she’s immersed in the competition and a budding romance develops. Love on Safari Co-Starring Jon Cor Jon Cor showed great promise for being added to the roster of handsome Hallmark leading men, but he quickly disappeared. This movie, shot on location, is breathtaking! In the movie, Kira inherits a wildlife reserve in South Africa, so she travels there to meet the no-nonsense head ranger, Tom. When she learns the reserve is in financial jeopardy and she may have to sell it to her uncle's competitor, Tom urges her to save it by taking her on a safari in hopes that she will fall in love with the land, the animals, and hopefully him. Moonlight in Vermont Co-Starring Carlo Marks Carlo Marks is a dreamy co-star in this movie about a fast-paced New York City high-end real estate broker getting dumped by her boyfriend and then escaping to her family’s quaint Vermont Inn for a few days to slow down and evaluate her life. When her ex-boyfriend Nate shows up at the Inn with a brand-new girlfriend, Fiona quickly devises a plan to win him back: pretend the handsome and very laid- back head chef Derek (Carlo Marks) is her new boyfriend! Much to the surprise of Derek --and to Fiona herself-- in pretending to be in love, she realizes that she’s been thrown a curveball: sometimes the best things in life are worth the wait. The movie is based on the book by Kacy Cross. It's one of the best Hallmark movies with the "fake dating" trope. ORDER HALLMARK CHANNEL'S LACEY CHABERT TRIPLE FEATURE Hallmark Channel's Lacey Chabert 6-Movie Christmas Collection Chabert is the Queen of Christmas! This 6-movie collection highlights some of her best seasonal flicks, though we can think of several more that could be included!

She crosses paths with an American executive named Oliver (Page), who wants to buy a high-end Italian ceramics company. Oliver hires Angela to be his tour guide around the Eternal City, as the owner of the ceramics company won’t sell it to him until he learns “the heart and soul of Rome.” A Christmas Melody Co-Starring Brennan Elliott PLOT: Kristin is a beautiful, stylish divorcee who is a talented clothing designer with a young daughter. Kristin has just had to close her small Manhattan boutique to return to her Ohio hometown and live in her parents’ former home. It’s an adjustment for Kristin and Emily – especially when she runs into her former high school rival Melissa (Mariah Carey). Melissa is president of the PTA and tries to make Kristen feel as unwelcome as possible. Kristen and Emily struggle to find their new normal with the help of the music teacher Danny and Kristin’s Aunt Sarah, the local coffee shop owner. With a little holiday magic and music, Kristin and Emily find that home is where the heart is. Pride, Prejudice, and Mistletoe Co-Starring Brendan Penny PLOT: Darcy (Chabert) has always worked hard to prove herself and be successful on her own terms, even choosing to start her own company, rather than work with her father. Returning to her hometown for Christmas, Darcy reconnects with an old rival, restaurant owner Luke (Penny), and they are forced to plan a charity event together. As Darcy spends time with her family and Luke, she starts to realize what matters most in life and sets out to mend her relationship with her father and possibly fall in love. Based on the book of the same title by Melissa de la Cruz . Christmas Waltz Co-Starring Will Kemp PLOT: After Avery's storybook Christmas wedding is canceled, a dance instructor helps her face her fears in life and fulfill her dream of learning to dance. The Sweetest Christmas Co-Starring Lea Coco PLOT: When struggling pastry chef Kylie Watson (Chabert) learns she’s made it to the finals of the American Gingerbread Competition, she thinks her competitive spirit has finally paid off and hopes the publicity will help her jumpstart her new café. There’s just one problem — the oven she’s supposed to use breaks down right before the contest. Determined to enter, she reaches out to Nick Mazannti (Coco), her old boyfriend from culinary school who gave up his dream of being a pastry chef to take over his family’s pizzeria. Nick allows her to use his industrial pizza oven at night to craft her ambitious gingerbread confections. As the two reminisce about the dreams of their youth, their romance is rekindled. But just as Kylie is on the cusp of taking the grand prize — and embracing true love — things get complicated when her ex-boyfriend takes drastic steps to win her back. Kylie realizes she must embrace the Christmas Spirit or risk losing both the contest and her new love. A Wish for Christmas Co-Starring Paul Greene PLOT: Sara Shaw is the type of woman who prefers to sit on the sidelines at work, but when her big idea for a Christmas initiative is stolen, she makes a wish to Santa that she’ll finally have the courage to stand up for herself. Santa grants her wish but only gives her 48 hours. As the clock ticks, Sara will discover how to channel the Christmas magic and speak her mind all on her own.
