I know I am talking to myself by posting here, but I hope Hallmark will see this. Do not have Jack come back in any way, shape or form to WCTH. He died, please let him rest in peace and give Elizabeth time to love again, free her!! I will be able to tolerate a one time appearance if he is seen in a dream Elizabeth may have, anything more than that I will not watch the show at all.
Please do not turn this show into some kind of farcical ratings grab, if you do this the possible ratings jump will be short lived.

Thank you Hallmark! Season 11, episode 11, finally the teacher and the Mountie are back to where they should have been several seasons ago! This was a great Season, in my opinion. Looking forward to the Season finale next Sunday and then for Season 12 in the new year!
Will there be a Christmas episode, that would be frosting on the cake.

I hope Hallmark is not tricking us again. I am watching WCTH and it seems like the same old rivalry is going on between Nathan and Lucas. I will admit at least Elizabeth is showing signs that are leading towards Nathan. Fingers crossed.
I feel like I am back a few seasons and I'm getting annoyed rather than being happy. Oh well, I guess I will watch a few more weeks and see how long this old routine will continue.
After all there was that Christmas tree decorating scene years ago, and now we have the same scene with an Easter egg.

The GAF Christmas movies, with just a few words, have reminders in the dialog of what Christmas is really about. It is perfect.
I do have one observation for all the Christmas movie channels, do people really decorate the interior of their houses with so many lights, garlands, several trees? Every window, every door, everywhere, it is over the top in my opinion. If that were my house, I would need my sunglasses inside! No one that I know decorates to that extent. If that is what people actually do good for them, however to be more in line with average people like me, channels could put one or two houses in their movies where the interior decorating is more subdued. I find myself looking at the decorations plopped here and there to fathom what is going on, when I should be listening to the actors.

Hi Sissy!
A lot of people like my husband and I don't watch the movies for the actors, but rather for the decorations. It's like having an animated Christmas card on the TV for two months straight! Joy! My husband I find them so inspiring that we've dedicated the first floor of our house to looking as much like a Hallmark movie as possible. For us, this also symbolizes Americana, as JC Hall (founder of Hallmark) invented the Christmas card with envelope because the traditional Christmas postcard didn't have enough room to write a lovely letter. Soon after, he and his brothers invented modern wrapping paper during lean times by recycling the pretty paper inside French envelopes for their own gifts to their wives. Hallmark was even the first company to ever produce a television show in order to promote themselves. This is American history, and I LOVE celebrating it!
Have yourself a Merry Christmas!

Meredith.
Thank you for what you wrote in your reply, it was a very nice history lesson for me. I enjoyed reading it. I do like to see the decorations in the Christmas movies, the same way I like to look at the old black and white movies, to look at what is now antique furniture, lamps, drapery and so on. I do love Christmas, the lights, the carols and everything about it. I have many decorations that belonged to my mother and some she handmade. Several by putting nativity and winter scenes in half an egg shell, painting the outside, and around the edge of the shell applying lace trim with tiny pearls. They are treasures that will be passed down.,
.
Your house sounds so beautiful. Happy New Year!

Oh, and just to recommend it, Catch Me if You Claus has very realistic modest Christmas decor. I also loved that because it reminded me of Christmas as a kid in the actual city where I grew up!
Have a holly jolly Christmas!

A lot of these post are older, but I do check in once in a while to see what people are saying, since I used to be an avid Hallmark fan. I have never watched Lifetime so I cannot comment. Hi Grandma Jo, you always have the best posts!
This might not be popular, however I really, really like the GAF movies, they are well written and well-acted. I also am happy to see so many familiar actors on GAF. For me it is a win, win situation. I hope more people find this channel and enjoy it as much as I do. I think there are enough fans to spread around all of these channels, whichever one, or two makes you happy.

Well, hi, there! I don't post too much anymore, but I have to agree with you about Great American Family movies. They have been steadily improving with writing getting better and better and as you mentioned, lots of my favorite actors and actresses are working for them now. It's great that the network really encourages feedback from viewers and I, personally, receive a reply from them on occasion. Nice to know that they care enough to read and respond. Hallmark has never replied to me. I am taking a wait and see attitude now that the Hallmark CEO moved on. Since When Calls the Heart was ruined 2 seasons ago, I left and found better entertainment elsewhere. Looks like they are at least trying to improve things on When Calls the Heart, but time will tell.

WCTH Season 10 was much better written then the last 2. JMO...not everyone agrees. To me it was more laughing, forgiving, and friendship. Just like the original seasons. I have found that some of the HM Christmas movies are a tad better this year. Not trying so hard to be inclusive and forcing it down our throats. It should feel natural. The channel with the best movies will get my ratings. Happy watching all!

Looks like they are trying to correct the course...? Thank you, Hallmark, for "de-Tinkering" When Calls the Heart. I love the writing this season and it is so nice to see stories distributed across the cast.
Sissy

True to my word I have not watched When Calls the Heart since she picked him! Have they cooled that so called romance? Is Nathan back in the running? If so I would obviously start watching the show. I don't even know when it is running and if this season is over? Thanks for any input.

Just saw this. Elizabeth broke the engagement with the gambler, and he is just been elected governor Nathan, as a romantic partner for Elizabeth, is very much in the running. I didn't watch after season 8 either, until episode 5 this last season when I heard the show was being reset...back to where it was around season 7, early season 8. The writing was outstanding, the community feel of HV is back, and the characters are behaving like themselves again. No word yet on when season 11 is going to air but it has already completed filming....

So, Hallmark finally made a good decision. Now that WL is out, please find someone who is competent to right the ship.

They couldn't let ratings keep falling like they are. I think it's much worse than they are even admitting.

So, RIDE didn't crack the one million mark with viewers......wonder how much money was spent on that one? Didn't Wonya cancel a lot of existing shows and programs that were a lot more popular with viewers than what she's got left? Anyone out there think she actually knows what she's doing?

No disrespect but they only had three shows. two got canned, which only the good witch was surprising imo. Because the other show had lost its lead the season before anyway.
That western type show is airing this summer and it’s sister show was originally on the app and flopped on GAC. lol

LOL neither the western type show or as you say it’s sister show were never on GAC. Ride is ALL Hallmark and Wonya Yellowstone wanna be show. LOL

I actually was referring to all the mysteries that were cancelled, Home and Family, Signed Sealed Delivered, etc. Not just Good Witch and Chesapeake Shores.

Hallmark movie The Love Club: Nicole’s Pen Pal was not a top 10, it was not a top 20 movie. If you are thinking top 50 nope ,if you are thinking top 100 that would be nope. It did not even make the top 150 programs for Saturday. And the best part was Lifetime’s movie Black Girl Missing was number 17. The mighty Hallmark has fallen. 😂😂😂

Love when you post something about Hallmark the Hallmarkies can not take and have to attack you. Just like on Facebook. They can not handle the truth. Showbuz Daily is where the numbers came. But a Hallmarkie does not care they think everything is okay with Hallmark. Don't you Camiile.

Yeah, Hallmarkies are actually just excited about the new Aurora Teagarden Mysteries without homophobes and racists. If you paid any attention whatsoever, you would notice that many Hallmarkies are in fact fans of both Hallmark and Lifetime (for me, it's Hallmark at Christmas, Lifetime the other 10 months of the year). These are not teams for which we root to win or loose, but simply television entertainment we sit down to enjoy at our leisure. And let's go ahead and have look at those March 11th numbers while we're at it...
Hallmark's "Game of Love"
P2+ 1,469,000
P18-49 156,600
P25-54 206,700
Rating: .47
Ranking Position: 16
Lifetime's "Girl in the Closet"
P2+ 958,000
P18-49 169,700
P25-54 243,100
Rating: .37
Ranking Position: 28
And GAC's...uh...hm. Did they even have a movie that weekend? Can't seem to find anything about it. They appear to have fired their PR department.
Ranking Position: 78
I'm no Allen Turing, but I'm pretty sure 1,469,000 is larger than 958,000 by a margin of 511,000. Not to mention, .41 is a larger share of the viewing audience than .37, and both are just slaying GAC all day, every day in their ranking positions. Go Hallmark and Lifetime! Woot-woot!
So enjoy your really weird hate along with your poor math skills!
