What does Americans need now? We need Christmas joy, so Hallmark Channel is giving it to us.
Since we have already binged everything we have wanted to watch on Netflix, Hulu, Disney+, and whatever else there is, Hallmark is giving us a weekend of Christmas movies. You know, since wlle will all probably be in our homes until then.
Starting tomorrow at noon, they will be airing 29 movies during the We Need a Little Christmas marathon.
I know I complain about Christmas coming earlier and earlier every year, but I am OK with it coming in March this one time. Merry Christmas!

It would not be Christmas without the holiday movies on the Hallmark Channel. Those telemovies would not be the same without music for the season. This year, they teamed up with Warner Music Nashville to release an album.
The record includes covers and original songs that were recorded for their movies. Now you can have a Hallmark Christmas 365 days a year. Because who doesn’t want to enjoy the most wonderful time of the year all year round.
We are still over three months away from Christmas, but Hallmark Channel is getting us into the spirit now. That is because today they announced that they are doing 40 movies this year. Starting on October 25th, we begin the 10th annual Countdown to Christmas event that will air on both Hallmark Channel and Hallmark Movies & Mysteries. Who needs Halloween candy when we will be getting some sweet holiday movies before the holiday.
This year’s star-studded lineup of stars (that don’t go on top of the Christmas tree) include Donna Mills, Jodie Sweeten, Kellie Pickler, Patrick Duffy, Cameron Mathison, Priscilla Pressley, Grant Show, Candace Cameron, Lacey Chabert, Niall Matter, Dolly Parton, Scott Wolf, Holly Robinson, Trevor Donovan, Jack Wagner, Kathie Lee Gifford, Jesse Metcalfe and Patti LaBelle to name a few. Not only that, Blake Shelton, that drunk guy from The Voice, is producing a movie for them. Yeehaw!
Andrew Walker and Jill Wagner host a special previewing the telemovies that will bring us plenty of joy this season. To get a sneak peek of the films click play. To see when they will air on what channel and who is in them, then click here!
When Calls the Heart might have parted ways with Lori Loughlin due to the college admission scandal, but Hallmark Channel has no plans in parting ways with the show. Erin Krakow announced today that the period drama was picked up for a seventh season that will begin airing next year.
The show resumes with new episodes, without Loughlin, starting on May 5th with a two-night event.
WCTH is one of the most-watched shows on cable TV.
On March 17th, Hallmark Channel announced that it was parting ways with Lori Loughlin because of how she reportedly got both of her daughters into college…illegally. That meant that her series, When Calls the Heart, that was airing its 6th season, had to be retooled to eliminate her presence.
The retooling is done and the show will begin airing new episodes starting on May 5th. Since the viewers have been so loyal to the show, they will air a second episode the next night as a present.
Just to give you a hint how popular WCTH is, it was the second most-watched show on cable during its 6th premiere week It was only beat by The Walking Dead. It will be interesting to see how it does without its most famous, now infamous, star.
