Hallmark Headlines: Mistletoe 2, Reality with Heart, “Not Ready” for Newport Christmas
This just in: the Hallmark news you didn’t know you needed – until now. Welcome to Hallmark Headlines! In this brand new recurring series, Megan and Wendy channel their inner newsroom anchors (minus the teleprompters and with way more tangents) to bring you the latest Hallmark Media updates. From casting scoops to cruise gossip to which Hallmark hunk is growing a beard again, we’re breaking it all down—with a healthy dose of speculation, sarcasm, and seasonal cheer. Think of it as your cozy, caffeinated Hallmark news brief… if the anchors were two best friends recording at a kitchen table.
