The countdown to Christmas is on!

Nothing puts the jingle in the Christmas season more than a steady stream of holiday cheer on Hallmark Channel, and most of us can’t get enough of it.

This year as part of the countdown to Christmas there are twenty-two original movies on Hallmark Channel and another fourteen on Hallmark Movies & Mysteries. Yay!

About the Movie:

Stars: LeAnn Rimes and Tyler Hynes
As interim school superintendent Eve trims budgets, and now she’s in her hometown where it’s personal. Her handsome neighbor Liam is a music teacher and Eve feels his program must be cut. But luckily her friend is married to an IT guy, who’s created a website for donations directly to save the Arts program. Launched during the tree lighting ceremony, where Liam’s students will perform, the website could provide the Christmas miracle the town needs. Already the Universe is cooperating. Eve is back home and she, Liam and his daughter look like they might be celebrating many a future Christmas.

Hallmark Channel’s #SummerNights “Pearl in Paradise” Premiering Saturday, August 18th at 9pm/8c! #PearlinParadise

August 15, 2018 By Liz 190 Comments

Pearl in Paradise.

What could be more delicious than a Hallmark Channel romance in a tropical paradise? Short of being there yourself, probably nothing.

But we can dream…

I dream of going back to Hawaii.

Maui was better than my best fantasies. Tropical breezes, beautiful sand beaches, lush landscapes and blue lagoons — and everyone was on island time. It just doesn’t get better than that.

But… since must of us aren’t going to get to an island paradise by this weekend, the latest Hallmark Channel #SummerNights movie is the next best thing to being on an island yourself.

Tune in to Pearl in Paradise this Saturday, August 18th at 9pm/8c on Hallmark Channel for a romantic treasure hunt you’ll never forget.

About Pearl in Paradise:

Alex, a photographer for a travel magazine, and Colin, a best-selling author, team up to find an elusive Fijian “pearl.” As both of their careers hang in the balance, their treasure hunt in a Fijian valley might lead them to find the only treasure that really matters

Pearl in Paradise continues Hallmark Channel’s Summer Nights programming full of NEW original romantic movies and the season 3 premiere of Chesapeake Shores.

And…. be sure to enter the Hallmark Channel Summer Nights Sweepstakes for a chance to win $5,000! You can enter daily!

Hallmark Channel’s #SummerNights #LoveonSafari Premiering Saturday, July 28th at 9pm/8c!

July 26, 2018 By Liz 199 Comments

I’ve never seen a Hallmark Channel movie I didn’t like (and I’m quite certain I never will), but I have to admit I’m especially excited about the upcoming Love on Safari movie. It premieres as part of Hallmark Channel’s Summer Nights programming Saturday, July 28th at 9pm/8c and it has a travel theme with animals!

I’ve been fortunate enough to have combined my love for travel with my love for animals many times. The memories still make my heart feel warm and melty.

One of my fondest memories is of the time I spent visiting a rescue sanctuary in Utah’s glorious red rock canyons. I was enamored with the beauty of the area, but it was the sanctuary’s passion for helping animals that touched my heart and changed my life forever.

My passion for rescuing cats (especially harder-to-adopt cats) was born of that experience, and my life is forever better for it.

The movie Love on Safari made me think about all this because I’m hoping Kira (played by Lacey Chabert) has a similar epiphany of her own.

About Love on Safari:

After Kira inherits a wildlife reserve in South Africa, 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. Starring Lacey Chabert, Jon Cor and Brittany Bristow.

Love on Safari kicks off Hallmark Channel’s Summer Nights programming. Enjoy five NEW original romantic movies and the season 3 premiere of Chesapeake Shores.

And…. be sure to enter the Hallmark Channel Summer Nights Sweepstakes!

One lucky Eat Move Make reader will win (1) Hallmark Channel Beach Towel and Water Bottle and (1) $25 Visa Gift Card.

Hallmark Hall of Fame’s “The Christmas Train” Premiering This Saturday, Nov 25th at 8pm/7c! #TheChristmasTrain

November 22, 2017 By Liz 159 Comments

The return of Hallmark Channel Christmas shows each year brings with it all the holiday spirit I never knew I had, and that’s why I couldn’t be more excited about partnering with Hallmark Channel for the premiere of The Christmas Train airing Saturday, November 25th at 8pm/7c.

From Hallmark Hall of Fame, a journalist embarks on a cross-country train ride at Christmas having no idea this journey will take him into the rugged terrain of his own heart.

I’m practically squealing with excitement already. Get details at hallmarkchannel.com/Christmas!

Do you find yourself getting the warm fuzzies when you watch Hallmark Channel Christmas shows too?

Here’s what I love the most:

It’s the perfect two-hour escape from reality: no bills, chores, politics, war, hatred, worries or sickness. It’s a guaranteed feel-good break from life and it’s only a remote click away.

There’s always the promise of a touching romance.

The near-miss kiss always hits its mark by the end of the movie, and it’s usually timed perfectly with the first snow of the year or the sudden appearance of mistletoe overhead.

Christmas carols can be heard throughout, and better yet, people actually go Christmas caroling.

Someone is always baking Christmas cookies (and sharing them with others).

All Christmas trees are real.

The movies take place in the cutest towns in the entire world with the cutest, nicest, most genuine people to ever exist.

Christmas gifts are wrapped perfectly.

There are Christmas lights everywhere – on all the things.

The grinchy character’s heart always melts and (and grows three sizes) by the end of the movie.

There’s always a magical and romantic ice skating scene.

Hot cocoa is the new wine. (Well, for them, not me.)

Everyone is full of Christmas spirit.

There’s always a happy ending. No matter what kind of scandal, heartbreak, business failure or outright jerk someone is, a happy ending is guaranteed and I wouldn’t have it any other way.

Thank you, Hallmark Channel for helping make Christmas the very best time of the year.

Hallmark Channel’s “Looks Like Christmas” Premieres Sunday, Dec 4th at 8pm/7c!

December 3, 2016 By Liz 102 Comments

‘Tis the season for Hallmark Channel Christmas movies, and I’ve been watching them like crazy! Although I do rewatch favorites, I always look forward to the new ones each year, and this Sunday, December 4th at 8pm/7c, Looks Like Christmas is premiering on Hallmark Channel.

Hallmark Channel Christmas movies always have happy endings, and that’s exactly what I love about them. The holidays are such a feel-good season, and I like to spend time doing things that make me happy. Whether it’s baking cookies, decorating the house, or watching holiday movies like Looks Like Christmas, I’m filled with Christmas spirit!

About the movie Looks Like Christmas:
Stars: Anne Heche (“Aftermath”), Dylan Neal (“50 Shades of Grey,” “Debbie Macomber’s Cedar Cove”)

Carol (Heche) is an over-involved mother but nothing compares to the holiday season when she goes over-the-top spearheading her kid’s school’s Christmas Spectacular each year, which earned her the nickname Christmas Carol by the parents and faculty. All that changes the day Terry (Neal) moves to town with his teenage daughter. Also single, he is very fond of the holiday himself, having volunteered to mount the Christmas play each year at his daughter’s former school. Carol tries to politely tell the single dad his help won’t be needed but he has no intention of stepping aside. The tug-of-war turns into something of a rumble and it becomes clear neither of these parents is willing to work with the other. With the competition lines clearly drawn in the sand, the dueling duo sets out to outdo each other to create the most memorable Christmas spectacular ever. The pressure is ON to make this the best Christmas ever as it’s anybody’s guess if “Christmas Carol” will live up to her moniker or if newly titled “Terry Christmas” will become the new holiday hero. The two will ultimately learn the error of their ways and put aside their differences while learning they have a lot more in common as an unexpected romance begins to bloom.

Be sure to catch the premiere of Looks Like Christmas Sunday, December 4th at 8pm/7c on Hallmark Channel.

And be on the lookout for Hallmark Channel’s 12 Days Countdown to Christmas, which will feature celebrities each day leading up to Christmas!
