The Way to You
We’re kicking off Hallmark’s Loveuary with The Way to You, a classic missed-connections setup with a very New York twist. Set against the backdrop of a subway blackout, this rom-com stars Kim Matula and Aaron O’Connell as two New Yorkers playing matchmaker for each other – while clearly missing the most obvious connection of all. But as any subway rider knows, delays happen for a reason – and sometimes the unexpected detour leads exactly where you’re meant to go. Let’s talk fate, timing, and whether love might be closer than either of them realizes.
The Way to You premieres on Saturday, February 7, 2026, on Hallmark Channel (and will be available to stream on Hallmark+ the following day).
