Hallmark Channel, the channel of happy movies, is giving us a sad story today. That is because they announced that this is the last season for their daily talk show.
“The ninth and current season of ‘Home & Family’ will be the series’ last,” a spokesperson for the network said in a statement to Variety. “For nearly a decade, the show has anchored our daytime lineup, featuring countless hours of cooking, lifestyle, DIY, health, entertaining and decorating segments. We want to thank the heart and soul of the show, our incredibly talented cast and crew — led by co-hosts Debbie Matenopoulos and Cameron Mathison — for their creativity, hard work and dedication. Our audience can look forward to more of the topical segments they know and love when the show returns on Monday, April 5 with a new one-hour, three-day-a-week format. The program’s final episode airs Wednesday, August 4th.”
I think this is a huge mistake because it was a great way to promote their many, many, many movies. Plus, it was fun to watch because there was such great chemistry on the show. You can tell that everyone liked each other. Something that is rare these days in daytime.
Along with the chemistry, there were also some really interesting cooking and crafting segments. It was nice to have something different than the other morning shows to watch.
