Hello Fans of what we have lovingly referred to on this site as "cheesy Rom-Com Fun". Technically, that used to be "cheesy Hallmark" which DOES still apply but I spend a lot more time on Great American these days. I am a bit late for Fall fun, but Christmas is right around the corner so I thought it might be fun to take a look at first... the rest of Fall; and then Preview the upcoming Christmas Rom-Com season. Since last season, we have had one huge development. Great American Media has merged with Pureflix to become "Great American Pure Flix". Bill Abbott, the CEO of Great American has purchased the Pureflix App and rebranded it as the "streaming wing" of Great American Media called "Great American Pureflix". What this means is that now, some of the fantastic Pureflix originals will find some air time on Great American. AND, the streaming app will include not just the incredible catalogue of faith based movies, but now also the Great American originals. The perfect blend, if you ask me. I'm excited about it and last night's watch of a Pureflix Original is proof of why. My FIRST Movie Highlight The Devine Influencer A wealthy 20-something influencer, loses financial support from her parents and takes a job at a homeless shelter for the wrong reasons. However, she soon discovers the true meaning of influence. This movie was amazing. Aside from starring lovely Lara Silva, who The Chosen fans know well as Peter's wife, Eden; it has such a beautiful message so timely for today's world of people who are self-absorbed and thinking the best way to earn a living for themselves is to brand their face all over social media as an "influencer". Our young 20-someting, Olivia, has parents who love her and want to see her re-direct her life to more selfless living and with a Godly purpose so they pull the plug on her financial support and pray that God will help their lovely daughter find her way. This "tough love" from Mom and Dad forces her to take a hard look at her life and the choices she has made and also helps her tap into the compassionate side of herself. I loved everything about this movie. It made me laugh, cry, smile... well worth the watch. And I'm sure I WILL re-watch more than once. Available to stream on Great American Pureflix and hopefully GAFamily will make room for it somewhere on their network soon. Now that we are mid-September and most of these sites have already begun their Fall Movie Fun, how about we take a look at what fun ones have already aired and what we have to look forward to upcoming. Great American Family Pureflix: Fall Movies A couple of the new Fall movies have already aired but never fear... they will air multiple times, I'm sure. But I still want to mention them.
Great American Family The Great American App is telling me we have 34 days until the Christmas Movie season begins, but until then, we have plenty to look forward to.
The Christmas season is right around the corner and while they have made some announcements about upcoming movies, I think I will save that for another page. One completely focused on Christmas. Soon... hopefully. Hallmark has had a couple of good ones this Fall as well... Of the ones I"ve seen...
Out of time to research more on Hallmark. I'm sure they have more but I need research deeper so will stop here. Not really seeing a lot of new movie content for Up; however, I did find a good graphic of their upcoming Christmas season. Oops... out of time. Will have to look deeper at the upcoming Christmas Season movie list for all sources soon. I wasn't able to come up with a good graphic for Hallmark or Great American even though movie titles are for sure available. Will try to compile a graphic of my own soon.
However, as I recall, some of my most favorite ones from last season were actually on UpTV. For now, out of time but it is a start for Fall/Christmas fun for those who love Christmas/Rom Com/Cheesy Hallmark movies.
