We Finally Know Why These Stars Left The Hallmark Channel

- When it launched in 2001, the Hallmark Channel initially struggled to find its voice in the crowded world of cable network TV. Today, the channel has become synonymous with second-chance romances and feel-good holiday fare - in 2021 alone, the network premiered 40 new Christmas movies.
But Hallmark’s days as the go-to holiday romance channel may be numbered. In 2021, the GAC network rebranded as GAC Family, under the direction of former Hallmark president Bill Abbott. With a new focus came new programming, but a familiar feel and several familiar faces from the Hallmark channel. So what’s going on? We finally know why these stars left the Hallmark Channel.

How do you feel about the Hallmark Channel?
When we see people cast as homosexuals worked into a Hallmark movie or series, we are DISAPPOINTED beyond words, & WE TURN OFF THE SHOW OR MOVIE RIGHT THEN & THERE. Also if the actresses are caked in makeup - looking like hookers - we turn the show off, or if the females are not dressed appropriately & riske. Good old fashioned, decent values are what we looking for in Hallmark shows & movies, and in any show or movie we watch.
I loved the movies and the series until they started promoting other sexual attractions. That's not the entertainment I wanted to watch so stopped watching and found better Christian channele
I must say that I absolutely love the Hallmark Channel. In a world where every time you turn on the news or even just another television network all you hear about is doom and gloom. People getting their throats cut, getting raped, murdered or tortured. Country's going to war with each other and nothing but news of all the horrors of the world that happen around us every day. I love that there is a place to go to escape all of that just for little while. A place where the movie plots are such that you know no one is going to step outside their door and get their throat slit or head bashed against the wall. Some may call this boring but I find it a restful place to visit at the end of a long work day hearing about all the trouble of the world. A place where love and affection abounds. If people find that boring then all I can say is please keep on boring me. A perfect example of the evil in this world is the response from Michelle Duncan and Marilyn Short. If these two women are representatives of what a Christian is supposed to be then all I can say is...I think I understand why the Romans used to feed them to the lions.
I love Hallmark . ❤️ I will continue to watch my favorite stars on my favorite channels.
Hallmark is defiantly moving in the right direction - Abbott leaving was a blessing his narrow minded direction was killing the channel all the movies we very cookie cutter… not in they good I line it will be a happy ending way… but in the copy paste repeat way - adding diversity is making the channel better in so many levels 😀
I like both channel.We really need beautiful stories with human values,great landscapes,tiddy houses and happy endings.
With everything going on in the world 🌎 I need a get away and these movie are very heartwarming
Wasn’t happy with hallmark Christmas movies this year. Very disappointed
I and several of my fellow Hallmark Christmas movie addicts felt the exact same way. I believe that when you mass produce the amount of movies the way that they have over the last few years it dilutes the quality. They began with new movies BEFORE Halloween, for Pete's sake. This past Christmas I kept watching the movies from years past as they seemed to have more appeal.
Last year's Hallmark's Christmas movies were boring & predictable
Waited all year for the new 2021 Hallmark Christmas Movies. Sorry to say didn't see a single one I liked. Enjoyed seeing the old ones better. Wish they had shown more of them.
They are all alike.Girl meets boy.They fall in love and then they have a fight over some hidden secret. They break up. They get back together.
@@maryelliott2375 pretty much sums it up 😃
I’m glad Hallmark did not let Breton bully them.
What kind of people become angry if ss marriage and ss couples are not in their employers movies? For me: I am sick of the 'I support sin' crowd ramming it's agenda in my face. So Hilary left them. Good riddance
We donT NEED EVERY MOVIE TO BE WOKE!
as if you watch any of this stuff
RIGHT!!! We NEED MORE HATE in Hallmark Movies. dumbass
exactly! woke, diverse, uggggg those are red flags for me. i dont want to be lectured or watch cringy things.
@@sumsumcorda8 I know JUST what you mean. I get the same feeling whenever I see a MAGA hat, tRump sticker or somebody married to their cousin.
I agree.👍🏻
GAC has good clean family friendly movies. As a Christian, GAC is exactly what I need to watch. I recommend GAC.
GAC Family where everything’s whitewash family friendly to you means straight white people only
@@veasnaphan4858 why not? Aren’t there black only movies already?
I stand on God's Word. It has nothing to do with race. @@veasnaphan4858
But they don’t put out new material! I wish they had the budget to produce new movies like they did at Christmas. Right now, it’s all rerun (really, really old) sitcoms, 24/7. Sad. I hope they don’t close shop before they can make some fresh programming.
Also, has nothing to do with race (I’m so sick of the focus on race, race, race as some kind of priority). Many films include different races, but then people will complain that the storylines are “too white.” No. Just normal, Judeo Christian values that our society is based on. It’s values that we are looking for, regardless of race!
It doesn’t matter who moved to GAC or stayed with Hallmark , as long as we can still watch them, I saw these GAC movies and they are great
How do get the gac channel
GAC costs approximately $15-20 more per month. Maybe that doesn’t matter to you but I’m a retired senior who can’t afford that expense and still pay necessities like medicine and groceries.
@@MsJL72I really don’t know anything about the price it cost to see them(don’t live in the US )since I only watch all of them on UA-cam , that sucks if you need to pay
HALLMARK has a LONG & OUTSTANDING history of WONDERFUL 🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️ movies, both as single presentations & as varying series - which I have LOVED - HOPEFULLY THIS WILL CONTINUE. Whatever machinations & politics is going on among actors, producers & whoever - that’s up to them - each one has their own agenda!!! My hope is that HALLMARK can maintain the QUALITY it has always had & not allow some “snot nosed, wannabe try and tell them what to do & how to run things!!!
I am truly sorry... I am having a real hard time with the Hallmark Channels, Movies & Commercials... ➡Pushing interracial as "normal!" 😝😝😝 Oprah has her channel Executives😳
Long time viewer!!!
GAC it seems from my little search is a streaming network that charges 6.99 a month, so it seems a lot of shows we used to watch in HGTV and Hallmark and other cable channels are now charging us extra from our already high cable bill. That alone for me, I will never see these channels.
Its free on Directv.
Each new streaming channel buys a classic such as The Wild Bunch and The American President from your cable package. So like what has become pandemic common we are paying a high cable bill for less movie choices. No regulation means higher costs. It's capitalism at its worst. I find myself asking WTF? more than ever.
If you have a Roku or Smart TV, just cut cable and do either philo, sling, or Frndly TV (for hallmark and GAC which is 8.99 for recording option so you skip the ads). I have hulu for 12 dollar option with no ads and Frndly. If you want to watch news or sport get sling.
@@terrijones6407 But it is not on the full Direct TV lineup or at least not now.
@@terrijones6407 Directv is our Cable TV provider.
Hallmarks no longer family friendly
The plot lines have really deteriorated the last couple of years. Very noticeable change. Disappointing.
All movies have the same plotline and timing.
Too much same story different title.
Loflin played sweet, sharing, loving, always kind characters. It was disappointing to find out about this.
They all have issues. You just don’t hear about it. Rather than expecting perfection in actors, just appreciate their talent.
Yeah, very attractive lady, and she can act. Too bad she has zero integrity. Good on Hallmark for firing her
I understand actors who need the stability of a new company which wants/ needs them and can offer them more work, especially with a multi- picture deal. Good for them. I sincerely hope that the future offers both channels open to employing these major actors for Hallmark a better chance of work from both.
Danica Kellar is so intelligent that she actually created her own mathematic equation that is used in school curriculum's all around the globe. Go girl!
Yes, I mostly just like the mystery movies on Hallmark, especially the ones with Danica McKellar and Candace Cameron.
Who????
The Hallmark Channel has greatly disappointed me over the past 2 to 3 years. It is so nice to have a safe place to go to, in GAC.
Ok. The thumbnail says that now we know why these stars left Hallmark. So, did these actors leave because of more money or because they do not like diversity or both. The only one I will miss is Trevor Donovan. I will continue following Hallmark before it even became the channel to follow.
That was my question as well.
Wow I didn't know jen left hallmark I'm going to miss her
IMHO the earlier hallmark movies and stars are of better quality... In end it is entertainment and with so many options I can find entertainment elsewhere if I choose. I choose my own viewing.
Not sure eject people feel the need to disparage others. I love Hallmark and GAC. If you don't, don't watch them. I just don't understand the need to tear people down. Everyone makes their own choices.
I don’t like the homosexual movies on Hallmark, I thought Hallmark represented wholesome video’s.
@@dianechapmanbettyboop oh please tell me what’s not wholesome about gay people
@@veasnaphan4858 the Bible calls homosexuality an abomination . Sins of the flesh will be lost, which homosexuality isn’t the only sin of the flesh.
@@dianechapmanbettyboop you hate gay people
No one is tearing anyone down. All anyone has said is you had every channel and studio flooding all woke garbage why do liberals have to force the same on Hallmark. And shame on Hallmark for falling for the stupidity
I remember her in the wonder years she was very good specially with kavin my family loved the show
Me too.....but I don't remember "kavin"......lol.
Kevin, not Kavin
As a viewer I actually like both networks - and a shoutout to Lifetime 🥰🥰🥰🥰
I love GAC as a Christian it has the shows that are wholesome, family friendly.
I guess diversity isn’t your thing
@@veasnaphan4858 if “diversity” is someone’s thing, they can watch all the other hundreds of networks that have diversity. You know, I don’t see diversity on BET.
@@melaniesirignano9408 I guess you only like seeing white people as the romance leads
@@veasnaphan4858 I guess you only like homosexuals and blacks on tv shows.
@@melaniesirignano9408 you hate gay people
Hallmark channel has changed so much I have quit watching it.
Wow! We're sure GAC isn't poaching Hallmarks' actors/actresses?
I believe in a “live and let live” approach to life and I would expect others to do the same. Hallmark was just fine the way they were. “If it isn’t broken, don’t “fix” it. If either actors or management want to voluntarily change their views on acceptable television, that’s fine. But I read that Hallmark received was criticized for not having LGBT programs. I wouldn’t mind that so much if that change didn’t cost me substantially each month. I can’t afford GAC and it’s totally unfair to expect people who want to watch family oriented programs to pay extra. I’m a senior living on a small pension and cannot afford to pay the extra cost of GAC. I personally don’t care to watch LGBT programs which is my right. Since I can’t afford to pay extra for GAC I’ll have to visit the library often. Shame on Hallmark!
Oh. So well said. Keep your sexuality private. That's why I like/liked the movies. If you don't like them there's plenty of movies out there that fit the agenda.
@MsL72: i agree with your statement: "I personally don’t care to watch LGBT programs which is my right."
Good riddance to SJW actors; they and their writer comrades are responsible for turning everything they touch into shit. Won't miss them at all. Maybe this guy was responsible for the BS that was becoming more prevalent on Hallmark; if so, I won't touch GAC with a ten foot pole. Now, if only Hallmark can stop putting out the same movie 95% of the time and mix things up like they did in the beginning. Jesus, I am so tired of overworked female execs finding love with a simple man from her small town past and all actors being either chefs, wine owners, restaurant owners and of course, overworked executives. And I do blame Hallmark for foisting Megan Markle on us and the yearly royal love shows that make me want to gag. I long for the more original movies like The Christmas Card, A Season For Miracles, The Christmas Cure among a few others that broke Hallmark's very stale mold.
/thank you Hallmark for not bending to the garbage the stars wanted you to do. Finally a network that stands up for principles
Bull 💩 Hallmark doesn't have an ounce of principles. They are just catering to a new generation of socialist uneducated sheep.
I love the GAC Channel...I watch Hallmark too but nice to have options
It’s nice to have options if you have the money to do so. Some retired people unfortunately can’t .
We love hallmark movies and I hope diversity doesn't take center stage. I am all about diversity especially when women are all typecast as skinny barbie dolls. But when you feel it's purposely put in there to distract from the main storyline; that's when I get irritated in the movie. The movie needs to have a storyline that flows. Loved the Christmas Caper movie with the biracial couple (can't remember the name) where they'd staked out the potential art thief. But when that same actor was in another movie where they kept queing to the 2 gay friends; I felt it kind of stuck out. I know it's hard to find a balance.
I so agree with you. I used to love America's Got talent, American idol and all those shows. But now it seems that it's let's vote for the one who has the sadist gay or transgender story. I personally watched the show for the talent. I don't want to hear anybody sad sad story. Not that I lack compassion for people but that's not what I watched the show for. I remember when I was a little girl my great-grandmother what used to watch this show called Queen for a Day. Who was the game show that was based on whoever had this saddest story to tell. Well at least that was keeping with the title That was the whole point.
Put these dance competition singing competitions all these shows that I've loved so much now have to make sure they have their equal share of every perversion you can imagine. Even my favorite show of shows Survivor. It's really sad. I might just have to give up homework simply because I don't know how to justify to continue paying for cable television when now we watch so little of it.
The word "diversity" is code today for anti-white
There is NO balance between good/evil! Read what God says about UNNATURAL SEXUAL BEHAVIOR1
Kim T,
Characters, sets & scenery, dialogue need to flow seamlessly with the story line to be a good movie! I’m sick of political mercenaries co-opting movies, art, music and entertainment as well as life! I was born a woman, I love being a woman, I’m proud to be a woman and have been called a woman for almost seventy years; Sooo they can take their new made up word of “ciswomen” to describe my gender and Go Suck An Egg! I’ll Do Me & They Can Do What Ever Version Of Them They Feel Like On A Given Day! God Bless Us All!❤️
Hallmark was the best but the network is screwing up big time upcoming networks like UPTV and real one entertainment or ripping apart Hallmark their movies are better and more entertainment oh yeah GAC it's also a good Network
UpTv that network has been around for years it didn’t just started and reel one entertainment is a movie production company not a tv channel network and they’ve done a couple of movies for Hallmark and the movies on UpTv are acquired movies most of them they took from Hallmark and most of them are from reel one entertainment
@@veasnaphan4858 didn't know that one but doesn't really matter UPTV shows better movies and Hallmark are losing too many big stars and they're canceling too many great mystery movies
@@agostinosperanza2546 UpTv shows way better movies um no and Hallmark Channel just signed a two year multi film deal with Lacey Chabert and she’s way more popular than Danica Mckellar and Jen Lilley
@@veasnaphan4858 you maybe think that but even Lacey's mystery movies are on the chopping block that's what I read the other day Hallmark is cutting cost and the other two actors you mentioned in my opinion or better and Candace Cameron Bure is number one
UPTv just lost a ton of viewers by dropping Bringing Up Bates.
I'm sure a lot has to do with the stars of Hallmark jumping ship. Executive Producer rights, is one of them... more money. Diversity.... another, definitely... GACFAMILY hasn't found its footing in their movies just yet... GAC has real kisses though lmao. But sometimes the movies come off just a little too boring. . . Or drawn out. I think GAC will find its way.. but now it's just ... learning about itself. Me, an avid Hallmark watcher, Lifetime romance movie watcher, and now GACFAMILY watcher.... I think it needs to get better scripts. Clearly, the actresses and actors are there, but quality wise for 2022 movies.... Hallmark is literally blowing GAC out of the park. Same with the Christmas movies... I'm waiting for the change though. I like GACFAMILY too... gave B characters a chance to star in a movie and not just be part of the second characters... (the black characters from the One Winter Weekend Trilogy)...
I LOVE all of the HALLMARK movies. I watch some of them over and over. I haven’t even heard of GAC.
I will look for it and watch both of them. I do not like the HALLMARK mystery movies ‼️
Oh, is Hallmark M&M not gay enough for you?
I appreciate when an issue is answered straightforward and not skirted around. Are we or are we not speaking about homosexuality and transgenderism that's being portrayed on Hallmark as being presented as a "normal" way of living? If so, such storylines are offensive to me. I cannot understand how anyone can truthfully say or think that a male can become a female (or vice versa) at their own declaration? Seems to me an honest assessment would be that a male will always be a male - simply a biological fact. If my reasoning seems unkind it's certainly not meant to be. "Sometimes though, the truth hurts."
Also, not wanting to sound vindictive against Hallmark, but what it comes down to is that I'm opposed to their using their persuasive platform to promote a lifestyle that is offensive to me....and I believe to others, too.
Instead, I simply chose to become a subscriber to Frndly TV to watch GAC Movies that hold to what I believe is sound reasoning (biologically speaking) when it comes to this issue.
GAC seems to have a limited viewing inventory at this time but it is seemingly enlarging its offering month by month. From the movies of theirs that I've watched thus far, the movies/acting are reminiscent of what Hallmark first became known for, i.e., "Wholesome family entertainment."
I am liberal and believe we should be tolerant and merciful, even, and perhaps especially, to people we do not understand. That said, I understand Hallmark not wanting to step into those waters. Hallmark wants to provide a safe place for their viewers. They don't want to get into the left vs. right fighting that has gone on for a long time and got especially bad after Newt Gingrich decided hatred - absolute, total and complete hatred - of liberals was the way to go........But, my point is I get Hallmark's stance and I respect it. Their movies are enjoyable and not to be taken as social statements. They are not literature in the sense that they intend to make a difference in the world, they do not intend to do that.
I agree with you!
TO LATE THEY ALREADY HAVE!
HALL Mark removed some of the best movies, and replace them in 2020,2021 with those I refuse to let my children and grandchildren watch.
@@jimmytaylor1570 oh please what’s so dangerous about gay people
Actress Burton wanted to force changes that are not part of the design of the channel and she knew it from the beginning. The things she wanted are available in all other channels. What make her think they will do as she asked? Good riddance
Hallmark DOES have LGBTQ and inter-racial couple movies . . . it doesn't make sense
@Carol Wood but... it stays on script for the most part. Which will not include things like that. I think Hillary making suggestions is part of what actors may do... it's not a shock that she would... but we can't act like Hallmark doesn't film for its base lol
When all this stuff started one of the hallmark channels did fall to pressure for a show or two. I don't believe it went well. But if they slip up again and cower just don't need to watch anything. But I'll stay faithful to Hallmark for as long as they stay faithful to me and others of the same position.
Lori does not deserve to come back. She is a crook and not that good anyway
Trevor Donovan not to fond of
As far As I am concerned, I like the programs with good clean story lines which for the most part has been Hallmark , however, the writers seem to be in a suspended same old story lines! Can't figure that one out..maybe they need new writers? So, I have not watched that many of them now. I love When calls the Heart and some of the mystery stories ( channel) But if they start bringing in characters that deviate completely with moral content ..then it will,be a NEVER viewing for me. Some people want more diversity or content that goes against others moral convictions...I say there are plenty of those programs out there if you want to warp your brain and moral compass. Hopefully we will see just the opposite of those programs and stick with decent viewing because it can be done with good story lines too. Although Netflix came under scrutiny because of some content with children exhibiting poor behaviour...they do have wonderful programming right now with no sexual content nor cursing...which is a delight to me. And plus great story lines! 👍👍
I guess you only like seeing white people as the romance leads
@@veasnaphan4858 no I like good storylines . I don’t care who the hell plays the part. I want good wholesome content, period. I’m sick of the political pushing agendas. No matter what people do someone will always be offended. Why do I a Christian have to continue to tolerate anything. Most stuff on t.v., in movies or music is downright offensive to me and my beliefs. Why do your beliefs only matter?
@@twoangelsful oh so gay people offends you
Exactly @twoangels.
GOD BLESS 🙏🙏💕💕
Can’t seem to find GAC on any streaming service I already subscribe to. What a shame.
Is there a fee for the service?
Is GAC their own channel and cable network too?
I hate that they decided to not resign their contract. I watch Hallmark all the time.
How do I find GAC? What channel is that on? My provider is Direct TV.
Channel 326
I have to check put gac..ive. never heard of it
Hallmark has a very loyal following that they will lose if they try to push that particular narrative. I'm not talking about race. They are not interested in what most networks are pushing, and the people calling for this so called diversity are not the demographic who typically care about these kinds of cutesy, traditional, wholesome movies Hallmark was known for. The networks and cable channels are saturated with that kind of "representation." Why can't people have choices, everything is not for everyone, and there is nothing wrong with that.
Of course it’s about race that’s what diversity is all about…. for years all you saw were white actors and once in a while you might have seen a black or Hispanic or Indian actor in a very small supporting role and that’s not the way America is and today we’re seeing more actors of various shapes and colors and sizes and even LGBTQ characters…. And I 100 percent support Hallmark in these changes-it’s about time!!!
@Dianne Kirk I concur. I am pleased to also see what is familiar to me, couples of different ethnicities and in particular interracial couples. After all, I am the product of an interracial couple. It's the other stuff I'm not interested in seeing, there is enough of that pandering every where else.
Nobody said you were talking about race. Instead of saying you are not talking about race, say what you want to say.
@Dianne Kirk She said she is not talking about race, what do you mean.
🤮🤮🤮
Why are we trying to pit one against the other? That type of competition only hurts us all. It is definitely an old way of living!!! Let's break out of the competitive nature and instead use cooperation and include all the movie channels. Why do the TV personalities and actors have to choose a "side"? Why can't they work with both and move back and forth? These contracts companies have are limiting.
I love ❤️ the hallmark channels movies
Getting rid of Home and Family was the last straw for me! Bad decision!
I agree. The best show on in the mornings. I watched it whenever possible. The hosts were very smart and energetic. I miss them.😟
Cheryl Harter,
Yes I was so livid to not be able to find Home & Family! Very Bad Move! Please bring it back!!!!!!❤️
What ever happened to Little House on the Prairie? No more Hallmark channel at our home.
We don't have GAC in Canada
Diversity is fine and normal in real life. Sexual perversion isn't.
Yes what wrong with black actors. On hallmark channel
Thank-you! Black&White😝😝😝
I don't watch Hallmark anymore. I've bought my favorite movies. I'm tired of all the pharmaceutical commercials an the snippets of couples that go against my beliefs. That doesn't make for a family friendly channel.
Very sad about Hallmark caving to this woke world. I will find GAC Family. Hopefully it will be back to safe viewing.
👍👍👍
Could someone please tell us Hallmark fans what “GAC FAMILY” is? Not sure what channel that would be on our cable or streaming service. Thank you!!😃
Yes I would like to know also
Great American Country/ GAC
@@jillpruett3444 I have Comcast channel 1620..all I see are Full House, Bewitched..old tv shows. Where are the movies?
GAC Family is a pretty good clone of Hallmark. Nothing more, nothing less.
I watch it on Frndly TV and I watch Hallmark that is also on Frndly TV. Get just about all the channels I want that I use to pay a lot more for on Satellite.
I cannot locate The GAC Channel on Spectrum in Upstate NY.
I watch both. Good to have choices
I don't know this other network 🤔
I don’t think the question of why they left was answered.
How do you watch Gac??
I get it on Direct TV and they have it on Dish. Personally I’ve always loved Hallmark Movies. Love their mystery channel as well.
Burton glad your gone we don't need woke crap everything in Hollywood is woke we need some content that isn't crap.
I used to like Hilarie Burton but hearing she had a temper tantrum and stamped her little woke foot because the producers wouldn't bow to her DEI demands, I have lost all respect for her. Good riddance. I am so glad I saw this so I can keep an eye on this channel.
I don't see any movies on Comcast channel 1620 GAC...only old tv shows like Full house> Do they show movies?? All these actors that left Hallmark...what movies have they made on GAC?????????
GAC is still pretty new. They had Christmas 2021 movies and now some new movies all similar to Hallmark's and yes they have old TV shows, too, like Hallmark does. So far I can't really tell much difference in the two networks but I watch them both.
"The List"? Sez it all doesn't it? Or not. (blink)
GOD BLESSES ALL.
What is GAC??
Hilarie Burton left for nothing because now Hallmark IS showing homosexuality. Hilarie was my fave but I am sad to see that Hallmark compromised their standards.
Unfortunately, I can’t get GAC.
Same here.
GAF I really like that channel a lot
I don't watch sports, or awards show anymore, just because of all the politics, I don't watch as many movies either, because of Gay and Lesbian agendas, I don't care what they do, I just don't need to see it, they don't need to be in Sifi movies! Why not make movies for entertainment, not life styles and politics. Sorry if this offensive to anyone, and yes if I don't like it I can turn it off and I do over and over again! Not sure why the few make the most noise!
👏👏👏
What is GAC
What is gac and what channel is it
Great American Country Family, you get it with some things like Dish or you can pay for it.
Hallmark is wholesome and not PC We all do not have to obey the liberal immoral agenda All artistic freedom is good Stop making all of us bow to your crude, boundary-less made up morality....we all do not bow to your immmorality . there a better way thank you Hallmark
I was a big fan of Hallmark not anymore. Movies boring loud music in the background and different name with same story line. Poor quality.
Hallmark has gone down hill with all the Social Justice propaganda. We stopped watching in 2019.
Contact them and tell them what you want to see.
Be good to have fresh actors hallmark great
I like Hallmark Channel. Have no idea what GAC is and am not sure I would want to even watch GAC. I am not going to miss those actors that left Hallmark Channel as there are other great actors. Shame that Bill Abbott did not like diversity.
See. That is the point. Accepting diversity is to accept perverts, abnormal and inmoral ways of living.
I've noticed that diversity is really just a word meaning, join us or cease to exist.
Yeah and what the heck is the GAC channel because I am not raising my Comcast bill just to watch more wishy washy Hallmark movies!!!!
I was not happy when they ended signed sealed and delivered series . That was the best. I loved the good witch series too but when the gay couple was introduced that end it for me
The lead actress on The Good Witch is gay.
Yep. Me too.
Right
I have STOPPED watching every show that FORCED GAY AND or other immoral content. If Hallmark goes gay, I go bye bye.
IF I have to start pre screening.. I'm gone
I don’t have GAC Channel and I would have to pay more to get it but I do have all of the Hallmark Channels. I’ll watch what I have. The only actress I’ll miss is Danika…..thank goodness that Tilley woman and the guy is gone, I can’t stand them. I don’t understand why move to a different network when Hallmark has been very diverse which is awesome. 💲💲💲 it’s only about the money
I have to pay and just don’t want another cost right now
What the heck is GAC Family?
Great American Country
I recently got Frndly tv, but haven't seen much new movies from GAC family. I see more movies on Uptv and Pixl.
I totally support What Hilarie Burton was doing! While I’ve enjoyed all the Hallmark movies, after a while I just kind of grew tired of seeing the same faces and the same faces with very little diversity. This does not reflect what we see in America. While the usual stable of actors on the Hallmark Channel are all great actors, I love seeing new fresh faces and actors in the movie lineups now and applaud the new regime under Wonya Lucas. She and her team are bringing more diversity and newer storylines yet keeping Hallmarks excellence intact. I’m someone who likes to see new faces and more creative story lines and I don’t want to see the same actors just rotated over and over again in just different movies and I love the fact that we are seeing other favorite and beloved actors that we haven’t seen in Hallmark movies before!! It’s a win-win in my book👍👍
You mean the other 400 channels of woke garbage were not enough for you?
I just started watching Hallmark at the start of the pandemic and loved their movies. They are comfortable and fun. I liked that I wasn't getting a 'message' at every movie -- just love finds a way.
🤮🤮🤮
Just had to deal with TEN COMMERCIALS!! Heck with that! I would rather watch T.V on my cell phone! What a shame 😣
Being a pay channel GAC is not a channel I can get . It’s pretty clear that Donavan left Hallmark and started his own pay channel . Yes money is always the # 1 reason he and the actors left Hallmark . I wish them well .
I look forward to watching Hallmark movies during their long Christmas season and have for years. The actors who have left were not my favorites and many times I stopped watching a movie when they showed up. Happy I saw this on UA-cam, a win win situation for me!
Gac?
I would much rather watch Pure Flix than either of these!! Because of the moral views!!

SEAPLANE from Vancouver Island to TORONTO? Not likely. It is like 2200 air miles
I just want to know if all watched all the GACFAMILY movies? From the comments.. I am sure most you have not from the comments on GACFAMILY gearing towards a white base vs a Christian one....
I don’t care if some people think that it’s cheesy
Quite frankly,I am tired of seeing the same actors over and over,to the point that I just won't watch their new movies. I just re watch my old favorites by them. None of them are true character actors,as so many actors aren't,that once you see them in one movie,you've seen them in every movie--only the scripts change. The same goes for big name actors,such as Woody Harrelson,Tom Hanks,Liam Neeson,Anthony Hopkins,Michelle Pfeiffer,Kristen Stewart and Judi Dench and on and on. Just my opinions...
To be honest I tried to watch GAC family, didn’t like it, I love Hallmark, the actressesActors that left won’t be missed. Not to mention Hallmark has those great looking leading men!
Hallmark has been racially biased and fickle on their presentation of representing gay lifestyles... if Hallmark can't find away to represent alll of us then yess of course we'll leave for more inclusive presentations.
@@janellebingham3807 yes you can see the difference in the Hallmark Channel line up from the Abbott years where there was very little diversity in story and actors used - and what we saw in 2021 - was it perfect no- was it better definitely - I am looking forward to what they do next
@@janellebingham3807 Hallmark is doing better with diversity now. It is still growing in that area. But a lot of supporting characters and a few leading characters have melanin in them compare to before. There are few gay characters in few movies. So far the Christmas house and Mixed up in the Mediterranean have gay couple in them. There lesbian couple that pop up in a movie and a show I watched. One was the on last season of the Good witch series and the other wedding every weekend.
Would love the profound movie that use to come out back in the. Older years..
To profitable now.. And fake
I do NOT appreciate that Hallmark has added LGBT to some of their movies. What drew me to Hallmark to begin with was the fact they “were” family friendly. Now you can’t be sure what you might see on there. I am very disappointed in them. Helen in Kentucky

I ALSO do NOT appreciate that fact that noth Hallmark channels have added LGBT to some of their movies!! What also drew me to Hallmark to begin with was the fact that they were family oriented movies that small children could watch and NOW I won't take the chance when my young granddaughters are visiting. Why did you have to "cave" to the bullies and pressure to make changes!!! It wasn't broken and should have left well enough alone! Totally disappointed in the changes to what I thought was a wonderful, positive, family loving, traditional channel for great family viewing.
👏👏👏
😂😂😂😂😂dissapointed in strangers? You really better work on your feelings than analazyng their somedody ele’s desitions. You can be dissapointed only in closest people
@@cherylgerstenlauer5716 are you gonna isolate your grandchildren from the school, intartaiment industry??? People, you probably old enough but you need to grow up. Are your grandchildren were okey then half of the parents in hallmark movies are always dead? How you explain that to them? Most of children dont even ready to hear about the possibility of parent’s death. But its life, you should explain that people die the way that you can explain that not all the families look the same and being dessapointed.

GAC Family is a "new" Hallmark rip off, ran by the former boss ,Bill Abbott of Hallmark. He quit Hallmark because hei didn't want to cast on diverse levels. He didn't want to cast LGBTQ characters, POC as leads in the Hallmark movies that they produced. ( thats why you never saw that when he was running the show) That's how Hallmark (of old) got the nick name
"Vanilla channel"
There are some stars that are refusing to go to GAC family because of Abbots ties to Donald Trump and his unwillingness to cast diverse characters. He may try to adapt to the times but I know he left because he didn't want to air the LGBTQ commercial.
So it’s ok to have BET but not a “vanilla” channel? And every tv show or commercial has an LGBTQ and an interracial couple. There’s plenty of POC in lead roles. So what’s the problem with just having shows that tell a story without it being ok’d by the diversity police? Try telling BET or Tyler Perry that they need to be over-proportionate and in your face with their casting. It’d be stupid!
@@sum1has2 You seem upset . Don't be 😡, BET is predominantly owned by white. CEO is white (Y'all are still getting your money off of us) Etc. Commercials are white etc. Yes the channel (Hallmark) was vanilla and un-diverse. THEY wanted to be inclusive and you are mad about it 😆 Since the ability to air television and movies was achieved the white race has run the airwaves and the theaters and now they...no, certain ones like YOU are mad because we are finally starting to shine and create for ourselves or are mad at those who previously felt that people who only wanted to see white people in lead roles could now handle watching a diverse group of people in leading roles. You had your run and you are still having your run. Now, stop acting like someone pissed in your cornflakes and or put lemon juice on your sanitary napkin. 🤣 😂
Good for GAC and who cares about Burton WANTS.
@@brenitabridges-kincaid7389 “Had your run”?! I’m not mad at all and you’re the one labeling it “us”and “them”. 😂 Why the chip on your shoulder? I’m glad you’ve finally stopped telling yourself you can’t do things and are doing what you’re capable of. I’ve never stopped you and no one I know has either. THAT is the point! Why wouldn’t I want that?? When everyone works for their goals the world does better! You can’t label everyone into categories, have quotas, dictate to others what they can and can’t have in their projects and say you’re the one that’s not a bigot. If equality is what you want it’s yours for the taking if you work your ass off and keep at it after you fail. (EVERYONE does fail.) The difference, no matter your color, is whether you make excuses, blame others and quit. No one is owed a damn thing in this world!
@@sum1has2 😆 You came at me because people wanted diversity. Talking about BET should be diverse, Tyler Perry (whom like you said worked his ass to get what he has) YES you are lobbed in with those that hate "wokeness" that's what your mad about. You can claim all you want that everyone should be able to be "equal" but what we are really reading in that they should be "equal" in their own lane. Yes YOU are lobbed in when you can't applaud the progression of diversity and yes YOU are lobbed jn when you complain about those that do complain a out a lack of diversity.
To bad hallmark is pushing the woke agenda ! I've lost all interest in their movies !!!!
love Donavan ❤
I don't hate the movies, But this is not the Hallmark Hall of Fame which I was hoping for. I'm okay with the mystery stuff and actually that's the best thing they got going now. But the romantic stuff is played out and cheesy. However I used to go for that but I got bored of it. Bottom line I like the Hallmark Hall of Fame movies that used to run when I was a kid. And other interesting tv movies. It doesn't always have to result in a murder or a kidnapping like lifetime and it doesn't always have to result in romantically falling in love like Hallmark.
Why do hallmark movies lose the sound and also the voice does not go with the mouth Very messed up.
Has Jill Wagner switched also?
Don’t care for Jill wagner
Love Jill Wagner
I came back to Hallmark because of its diversity efforts.
🤮🤮🤮
