<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">“Full House” actress Jodie Sweetin said she’s “disappointed” that one of her upcoming </span><a href="https://www.dailywire.com/topic/movies"><span style="font-weight: 400;">films</span></a><span style="font-weight: 400;"> was recently sold to the family-oriented media company Great American Family (GAF).</span></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">The 41-year-old actress relayed her thoughts about the film “Craft Me a Romance” selling to the network. Sweetin’s former “Full House” co-star, </span><a href="https://www.dailywire.com/topic/candace-cameron-bure"><span style="font-weight: 400;">Candace Cameron Bure,</span></a><span style="font-weight: 400;"> is a chief creative officer and frequent collaborator at GAF after leaving their competitor, The Hallmark Channel.</span></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">&#8220;Sometimes, we, as actors, don&#8217;t have control over which network buys the projects we are in, nor are we a part of the process in which they get sold,&#8221; Sweetin said in a <a href="https://people.com/jodie-sweetin-claims-upcoming-film-was-sold-to-great-american-family-channel-without-her-knowledge-exclusive-7642330">statement</a>. &#8220;So I was very surprised to learn by reading about it in the press yesterday that the independent film I worked on over a year ago was sold to Great American Family.&#8221; </span></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">She continued, &#8220;I am disappointed, but in keeping with my mission of supporting the LGBTQ+ family, any potential or future money made from this sale will be donated to </span><a href="https://www.dailywire.com/topic/lgbtq"><span style="font-weight: 400;">LGBTQ+</span></a><span style="font-weight: 400;"> organizations.&#8221;</span></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">GAF CEO Bill Abbott and Bure did a </span><a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/candace-cameron-bure-confirms-network-will-keep-traditional-marriage-at-the-core-while-hallmark-leans-into-lgbtq-stories"><span style="font-weight: 400;">joint interview</span></a><span style="font-weight: 400;"> in November 2022 stating that they planned to “keep traditional marriage at the core” of the upcoming programming to differentiate themselves from Hallmark, which has been featuring more LGBTQ storylines in recent years. </span></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">“I’m very excited to develop heartwarming family and faith-filled programming and make the kind of stories my family and I love to watch,” Bure shared in a statement about making the switch. “I am constantly looking for ways that I can inspire people to live life with purpose.”</span></p>

<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">While Abbott said there’s no strict rule prohibiting same-sex love stories at GAF, the comments about traditional marriage were blasted by several celebrities.</span></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">JoJo Siwa posted, “Honestly, I can’t believe after everything that went down just a few months ago, that she would not only create a movie with intention of excluding LGBTQIA+, but then also talk about it in the press. This is rude and hurtful to a whole community of people.” This prompted Sweetin to respond to Siwa, saying, “You know I love you.”</span></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">The film “Craft Me a Romance” premieres on GAF on September 16. It stars Sweetin as the owner of an arts and crafts store who is told by a rival store owner that she must sell her store or go out of business.  </span></p>

<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Actress </span><a href="https://www.dailywire.com/topic/candace-cameron-bure" target="_blank" rel="noopener"><span style="font-weight: 400;">Candace Cameron Bure</span></a><span style="font-weight: 400;"> insists that she never tried to get a “</span><a href="https://www.dailywire.com/topic/television" target="_blank" rel="noopener"><span style="font-weight: 400;">Fuller House</span></a><span style="font-weight: 400;">” guest star who played a </span><a href="https://www.dailywire.com/topic/lgbtq" target="_blank" rel="noopener"><span style="font-weight: 400;">gay</span></a><span style="font-weight: 400;"> character fired from the Netflix show.</span></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Her rebuttal is in response to a TikTok </span><a href="https://www.tiktok.com/@ihatemissbenny/video/7252784188447788330" target="_blank" rel="noopener"><span style="font-weight: 400;">video</span></a><span style="font-weight: 400;"> made by Miss Benny, a 24-year-old YouTuber who identifies as transgender, responding to a question about alleged “homophobic” treatment on set.</span></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">&#8220;I was on ‘Fuller House,’ I played Casey, the first gay character on the ‘Full House’ franchise,&#8221; Benny said in the social media video. &#8220;One of the Tanner sisters is very publicly &#8216;not for the girls,&#8217; if that makes sense?&#8221;</span></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Benny, who did not mention Bure by name, continued, &#8220;I remember I got sat down by the writers and the studio to basically warn me how this person, allegedly, was trying to get the character removed and not have a queer character on the show. I was also sort of warned and prepared that this person&#8217;s fan base might be encouraged to target me specifically.&#8221;</span></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Bure, who rose to fame on the popular sitcom “Full House&#8221; and is known to espouse</span><span style="font-weight: 400;"> conservative views, responded to Benny’s claims in a <a href="https://www.foxnews.com/entertainment/candace-cameron-bure-shuts-down-claims-she-tried-get-miss-bennys-gay-character-fuller-house-fired" target="_blank" rel="noopener">statement</a> to Fox News Digital.</span></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">&#8220;I never asked Miss Benny’s character to be removed from ‘Fuller House’ and did not ask the writers, producers or studio executives to not have queer characters on the show,” the 47-year-old actress said.</span></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">&#8220;&#8216;Fuller House&#8217; has always welcomed a wide range of characters,&#8221; she said. “I thought Miss Benny did a great job as ‘Casey’ on the show.&#8221;</span></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Bure also addressed claims Benny made that “despite working on the show every day for two weeks straight — I have only had a conversation with one of the Tanner sisters.&#8221; </span><span style="font-weight: 400;">Considering that “Fuller House” star Jodie Sweetin has become a vocal supporter of the LGBTQ community, many TikTok users assume Benny was voicing complaints against Bure. </span></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">&#8220;We didn’t share any scenes together, so we didn’t get a chance to talk much while filming on set. I wish Miss Benny only the best,” Bure said.</span></p>

<p><a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/john-stamos-full-house-cast-post-statement-on-bob-sagets-death" target="_blank" rel="noopener">John Stamos</a> admitted he was &#8220;angry&#8221; when he first learned that &#8220;Full House&#8221; stars Mary-Kate and Ashley Olsen weren&#8217;t coming back for the Netflix reboot series, &#8220;Fuller House,&#8221; in 2016.</p>
<p>During the 59-year-old actor&#8217;s recent appearance on Kevin McHale and Jenna Ushkowitz&#8217;s &#8220;And That&#8217;s What You REALLY Missed&#8221; podcast, Stamos — who played Jesse Katsopolis on the show — talked about how he had reconnected with the Olsen twins after co-star <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/bob-sagets-widow-speaks-out-about-latest-info-regarding-her-husbands-death" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Bob Saget&#8217;</a>s death in January 2022, <a href="https://www.yahoo.com/entertainment/john-stamos-admits-initially-angry-154421941.html">Yahoo.com</a> reported.</p>
<p>&#8220;When the twins moved to New York… we didn&#8217;t really see them much,&#8221; Stamos said. &#8220;I mean, we stayed in touch a little bit, but Bob [Saget] really did. You hear rumors — &#8216;Oh, they hated their childhood,&#8217; or &#8216;they hated being on the show&#8217; or whatever. When I did &#8216;Fuller House,&#8217; they didn&#8217;t want to come back and I was angry for a minute and that got out.&#8221;</p>
<p>&#8220;But they said, &#8216;We loved our childhood. We loved being with you. We miss Bob,'&#8221; he added of reuniting with them.</p>
<blockquote class="twitter-tweet" data-width="500" data-dnt="true">

<p><script async src="https://platform.twitter.com/widgets.js" charset="utf-8"></script></p>
<p>Stamos even revealed that the twins, who shared the role of Michelle Tanner on the popular ABC show, visited his home and &#8220;brought a pork chop and sage. I don&#8217;t know why, but thank you? It was a frozen pork chop, so that was really nice. So we stayed very close.&#8221;</p>
<p>&#8220;Full House&#8221; ran from 1987-1995 with the Olsen twins playing Michelle for the entirety of its eight-season run alongside Stamos, actress <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/youre-going-to-be-a-disciple-for-me-candace-cameron-bure-thanks-god-for-taking-her-out-of-acting-for-10-years" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Candace Cameron Bure</a>, and Saget, who played Danny Tanner. &#8220;Fuller House&#8221; ran from 2016-2020.</p>

<p>&#8220;So, we&#8217;re carrying the baby downstairs and we take her in the kitchen and we hose her down. And she was screaming. Both of them,&#8221; Stamos said. &#8220;They wanted to be anywhere else but there, and so did I.&#8221;</p>

<p>&#8220;They were 11 months old, and God bless them. They kept switching: &#8216;This one&#8217;s not gonna cry,'&#8221; he added. &#8220;I couldn&#8217;t deal with it. And I said, &#8216;This is not gonna work.&#8217; And so they got rid of them. They bring on these two redheaded kids… I&#8217;m sure their parents loved them and thought they were attractive…&#8221;</p>
<p>&#8220;It was only a few days, and I said, &#8216;Bring the Olsens back! These kids are terrible,'&#8221; Stamos continued.</p>
<p>Saget died on January 9, 2022, from head trauma. He was found dead in his hotel room in Orlando, and his death was ruled an accident.</p>

<p>&#8220;In a media environment where programming and distribution business models are in a constant state of flux, this agreement provides a rare opportunity to maximize our potential with the expertise, market knowledge and content creation capabilities of a world class partner like Sony Pictures,&#8221; Great American Media President and CEO, Bill Abbott, said.</p>

<p>The &#8220;Full House&#8221; star will play U.S. Army Reservist Nicole Ramsey, who is &#8220;dedicated to helping military service members and their families, this Christmas&#8221; and &#8220;with the help of many heroes she will be on a mission to honor a fallen soldier and bring much needed healing to this family,&#8221; a description on IMDb <a href="https://www.imdb.com/title/tt27542956/?ref_=nv_sr_srsg_0_tt_8_nm_0_q_My%2520Christmas%2520Hero" target="_blank" rel="noopener">read</a>.</p>
<p>&#8220;We are proud to tell a story that honors our U.S. veterans this Christmas season,&#8221; Bure told the outlet. &#8220;From WW2 to present day veterans, we shine the spotlight on their heroic work as well as aftercare needs. We have a talented cast and crew and are thrilled to bring it to our Great American Family audience.&#8221;</p>
<p>The movie is the latest from the &#8220;Fuller House&#8221; star, who recently spoke about her faith and thanked God for taking her out of acting for 10 years. She said during that time off she&#8217;s realized he wanted her to become &#8220;a disciple for&#8221; him, as previously <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/youre-going-to-be-a-disciple-for-me-candace-cameron-bure-thanks-god-for-taking-her-out-of-acting-for-10-years" target="_blank" rel="noopener">reported</a>.</p>
<p>Bure said when her career started she didn&#8217;t have a focus on God and believes he took her out of the business for a decade to change her priorities and worldview.</p>
<p>&#8220;Being a Christian was just a compartment of my life,&#8221; the actress said. &#8220;And during that season of motherhood, which I focused on my relationship with God, I then actually started walking the walk.&#8221;</p>

<p>&#8220;And I think about the ten years that I thought I was going to continue working, and yet God was like &#8216;nope, I&#8217;m going to take you out for 10 years because I&#8217;m going to build your character. I&#8217;m going to build your worldview,'&#8221; she added. &#8220;Which has become a biblical worldview.&#8221;</p>
<p>Bure&#8217;s upcoming movie will be part of the network&#8217;s Great American Christmas, which returns in October and runs through the end of the year, the outlet noted.</p>

<p>The &#8220;Fuller House&#8221; star said God changed her priorities and said &#8220;&#8216;if I allow you, if I have you go back into the business, you&#8217;re going to come in with new eyes.'&#8221;</p>
<p>&#8220;&#8216;It&#8217;s not just going to be about being on another television show or being an actress,'&#8221; she added of his message. &#8220;&#8216;It&#8217;s not about winning an award. It&#8217;s not about getting the job. You&#8217;re gonna be a disciple of me for me in whatever job you have in that industry.'&#8221;</p>
<p>The &#8220;Christmas Under Wraps&#8221; star said at the time it was really difficult being out of the business for so long, but said now she&#8217;s glad God took her out to teach her.</p>

But I&#8217;m a different person than I was in my early 20s and I really do have a different perspective on why I am in the industry. And what I&#8217;m trying to share with people.

<p>Bure, who does not appear to be connected to the film in any way, is very open about being a Christian and recently left the Hallmark network for the Great American Family to tell what she called &#8220;faith-filled&#8221; stories, as previously <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/candace-cameron-bure-thanks-fans-after-gaf-becomes-fastest-growing-network-in-all-of-cable-tv" target="_blank" rel="noopener">reported</a>.</p>

<p>&#8220;I knew that the people behind Great American Family were Christians that love the Lord and wanted to promote faith programming and good family entertainment,&#8221; the actress said, noting that Hallmark had essentially become &#8220;a completely different network&#8221; than when she signed on due to a &#8220;change of leadership.&#8221;</p>

Candace Cameron Bure Says She Prays Upcoming Faith-Based Film Helps People Find Jesus

<p>Great American Family actress Candace Cameron Bure made it clear that she&#8217;s not going to let cancel culture influence her choices, saying that while she realized facing backlash for her personal views could be &#8220;difficult,&#8221; it was nothing compared to what Christians faced in other countries.</p>
<p><a href="http://www.dailywire.com/topic/candace-cameron-bure/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Bure</a> joined Wednesday&#8217;s episode of the &#8220;<a href="https://thejuliasadlershowpodcast.libsyn.com/candace-cameron-bure-on-full-house-her-faith-journey-being-a-christian-in-hollywood" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Unapologetic with Julia Jeffress Sadler</a>&#8221; podcast, and she addressed the fact that critics routinely attack her for voicing her conservative Christian views — particularly in the film business.</p>
<p>&#8220;Cancel culture is real, and it’s difficult, and it’s hard,&#8221; she said, but she immediately pivoted to point out the fact that people outside the United States faced a much more difficult situation if they wanted to preach the Gospel.</p>
<p>&#8220;I know there’s all the places in the world, all different countries, where people get severely persecuted for their faith. I feel like we’ve had this cushion here in North America where someone yells at us or someone says a mean, negative thing and our feelings get so hurt over it,&#8221; she said, adding, &#8220;And that isn’t nearly the persecution that other people go through from being a Christian in other countries.&#8221;</p>
<p>Bure went on to say that she did not intend to allow critics to change her, arguing that it was even more important for Christians to stand up and stand firm in their beliefs when they were faced with backlash.</p>
<p>&#8220;It’s hard, no matter what. Especially when you are a compassionate person and you have a heart for people. But it’s important that we speak truth in love, ’cause, listen, nobody’s gonna change, nobody’s gonna listen to you when it comes out angry, when it comes out in a harsh way, but it’s important that we don’t back down,&#8221; she explained.</p>
<p>After Bure&#8217;s abrupt exit from the Hallmark Channel — which she attributed to a change in leadership and a shift away from faith-based stories that focused on traditional values and marriages — she faced a wave of backlash accusing her of <a href="https://dailywire.com/news/hallmarks-self-described-king-of-gay-christmas-wont-comment-on-candace-cameron-bures-marriage-remarks/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">bigotry</a> and of <a href="https://dailywire.com/news/make-your-money-honey-one-tree-hill-actress-slams-candace-cameron-bure-over-marriage-comments/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">selling out</a>.</p>

<p>Candace Cameron Bure made a touching post about her late friend and former co-star Bob Saget a year after his death.</p>
<p>In a post on Monday on <a href="https://www.instagram.com/p/CnM0CahPEWv/">Instagram</a>, the <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/topic/candace-cameron-bure">46-year-old</a> actress revealed that she couldn&#8217;t watch videos of <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/topic/bob-saget">Saget</a> after his shocking death on January 9, 2022, but was finally able to on Sunday night.</p>
<p>&#8220;I stayed up for hours watching videos of Bob on my phone,&#8221; <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/candace-cameron-bure-posts-video-about-god-being-her-defender-following-latest-slam-on-her-after-a-string-of-attacks">Bure</a> shared with her 5.6 million followers. &#8220;Videos I couldn&#8217;t watch a year ago because it hurt too much. Last night they made me laugh.&#8221;</p>
<p>&#8220;They comforted me and warmed my heart,&#8221; she added. &#8220;I watched them over and over and laughed so hard. I miss him so much and I&#8217;m grateful he was my friend for so many years.&#8221;</p>

<p>&#8220;I love you, Bob,&#8221; the &#8220;Full House&#8221; <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/candace-cameron-bure-tearfully-remembers-little-tiff-over-text-with-bob-saget-before-his-death">alum</a> continued, &#8220;now go hug a friend like Bob would.&#8221;</p>
<p>The &#8220;Fuller House&#8221; star&#8217;s post included photos taken with Saget over the years of their friendship. The first image appears to have been taken on the set of their hit family sitcom &#8220;Full House,&#8221; which ran from 1987-1995. The other two included a snap of her and the late comedian posing together on the red carpet at an Emmy Awards show.</p>
<p>Following Saget&#8217;s death, <a href="https://www.instagram.com/p/CYmxZ8KP6m-/">Bure</a> was one of many celebrities who reacted on social media.</p>
<p>&#8220;Thirty-five years ago, we came together as a TV family, but we became a real family,&#8221; Bure captioned her Instagram <a href="https://www.instagram.com/p/CYj8-4rP0Bz/">post</a> at the time. &#8220;And now we grieve as a family. Bob made us laugh until we cried. Now our tears flow in sadness, but also with gratitude for all the beautiful memories of our sweet, kind, hilarious, cherished Bob.&#8221;</p>
<p>&#8220;He was a brother to us guys, a father to us girls and a friend to all of us,&#8221; she added. &#8220;Bob, we love you dearly. We ask in Bob&#8217;s honor, hug the people you love. No one gave better hugs than Bob. ~ John, Dave, Candace, Jodie, Lori, Andrea, Scott, Jeff, Ashley and Mary-Kate.&#8221;</p>
<p><a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/bob-sagets-widow-speaks-out-about-latest-info-regarding-her-husbands-death">Saget</a> died on January 9 from head trauma. He was found dead in his hotel room in Orlando, and his death was ruled an accident. The night before, he had performed in a stand-up show.</p>

‘I Miss Him So Much’: Candace Cameron Bure Shares Touching Post About Friend Bob Saget A Year After His Death

Candace Cameron Bure Shares Touching Post About Friend Bob Saget A Year After His Death

Bob Saget

<p><a href="https://www.dailywire.com/topic/candace-cameron-bure" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Candace Cameron Bure</a> thanked fans for their support after her new channel — the Great American Family — became the &#8220;fastest growing network&#8221; in all of cable TV.</p>
<p>In a post to her <a href="https://www.instagram.com/stories/candacecbure/3007673845296784333/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Instagram Story</a>, the 46-year-old actress shared a press release from the Great American Media about closing out the fourth quarter as the &#8220;fastest growing network in all of cable television.&#8221;</p>
<p>&#8220;Thank you for finding us and watching Great American Family Channel,&#8221; Bure wrote over the press release from the network.</p>
<p>In a tweet from GAF, the network shared &#8220;Great news for Great American Media&#8217;s #GreatAmericanFamily to end 2022 &amp; an even better way to start 2023. Happy New Year to everyone who helped make this happen, from people on-camera &amp; off, but especially our viewers!”</p>

<p><script async src="https://platform.twitter.com/widgets.js" charset="utf-8"></script></p>
<p>In the press release, the network shared that in only the channel&#8217;s second year, it ranked &#8220;#1 in Total Day ratings growth in Households (+113%),&#8221; ages 18-49 (+100%) and total viewership (+116%), per Nielsen.</p>
<p>It also noted that the network came in #1 in &#8220;Primetime ratings growth in Households (+128%) among all cable networks.&#8221;</p>
<p>The press release said that the jump in growth was a direct result of the &#8220;network&#8217;s Great American Christmas franchise, which featured 18 original Christmas movies&#8221; that included Bure, among other fan favorites Danica McKellar, Gladys Knight, and more.</p>
<p>Bure recently shared what kind of Christmas programming fans could expect from the network that planned to go head-to-head with The Hallmark Channel during the holidays.</p>
<p>The &#8220;Full House&#8221; star left Hallmark to join GAF to tell what she called &#8220;faith-filled&#8221; stories, as previously <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/full-house-star-candace-cameron-bure-to-create-and-star-in-faith-filled-wholesome-content-for-the-whole-family" target="_blank" rel="noopener">reported</a>.</p>
<p>In a <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/full-house-star-candace-cameron-bure-to-create-and-star-in-faith-filled-wholesome-content-for-the-whole-family" target="_blank" rel="noopener">statement</a> in April, Bure shared how excited she was to be developing &#8220;heartwarming family and faith-filled programming and make the kind of stories my family and I love to watch. I am constantly looking for ways that I can inspire people to live life with purpose. GAC fits my brand perfectly.&#8221;</p>
<p>Later, in a Wall Street Journal <a href="https://www.wsj.com/articles/candace-cameron-bure-great-american-family-11668205295" target="_blank" rel="noopener">interview</a>, Bure explained that she wanted to share &#8220;stories that have more meaning and purpose and depth behind them.&#8221;</p>
<p>&#8220;I knew that the people behind Great American Family were Christians that love the Lord and wanted to promote faith programming and good family entertainment,&#8221; the actress said, noting that Hallmark had essentially become &#8220;a completely different network&#8221; than when she signed on due to a &#8220;change of leadership.&#8221;</p>
<p>Hallmark started developing more LGBTQ storylines, including the first original holiday movie focused on a same-sex couple, called &#8220;The Holiday Sitter,&#8221; which premiered December 11 on the channel.</p>


Candace Cameron Bure Thanks Fans After GAF Becomes ‘Fastest Growing Network’ In All Of Cable TV

<p>Actress Lacey Chabert made it clear that she was standing by the Hallmark Channel after former network star Candace Cameron Bure left to pursue a relationship with competing channel Great American Family.</p>
<p>Bure, who made a number of Christmas movies and starred in a mystery-movie franchise at Hallmark, announced the surprise move in early 2022. She later explained that the change in leadership at Hallmark had factored into her decision — as did her personal faith and her desire to keep telling stories with traditional marriage at the center of the story.</p>
<p>The &#8220;Fuller House&#8221; star&#8217;s comments drew backlash from a number of people, ranging from long-time co-star <a href="https://dailywire.com/news/candace-cameron-bure-unfollows-jodie-sweetin-as-she-backs-jojo-siwa-in-traditional-marriage-controversy/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Jodie Sweetin</a> to &#8220;One Tree Hill&#8221; and former Hallmark actress <a href="https://dailywire.com/news/make-your-money-honey-one-tree-hill-actress-slams-candace-cameron-bure-over-marriage-comments/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Hilarie Burton Morgan</a>. Actor Neal Bledsoe, who had also made the move to Great American Family, <a href="https://dailywire.com/news/my-choice-is-clear-great-american-family-actor-exits-stage-left-over-candace-cameron-bure-marriage-comments/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">abruptly cut ties</a> with the network in the wake of Bure&#8217;s comments.</p>
<p>Chabert, who took over some of the Christmas promotional duties in Bure&#8217;s absence, defended Hallmark. Saying that she had &#8220;found a real home&#8221; with the channel, Chabert explained in a recent <a href="https://www.vulture.com/article/lacey-chabert-interview-hallmark-christmas-movies.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener">interview</a> with Vulture: &#8220;I’m able to be more of who I am here than possibly anywhere else I’ve worked.&#8221;</p>
<p>&#8220;Any shift I’ve felt has been embracing our creative ideas,&#8221; Chabert said, responding to Bure&#8217;s claim that the change in leadership at Hallmark had made the network a very different place. &#8220;And it’s my responsibility to the audience who continue to tune into my movies that I give the best I have to offer. That’s always my mission. I’ll never abandon what Hallmark means for me, which is that everything is centered around the heart. I don’t think there are any plans for that to change anytime soon.&#8221;</p>
<p>The &#8220;Mean Girls&#8221; alum refused to go any further, however, explaining that she bore no ill will toward the actors and actresses who had chosen to leave the Hallmark Channel.</p>
<p>&#8220;You know what, I wish everybody the best. I really can’t comment on it further other than I care about everybody involved,&#8221; she said.</p>
<p>Chabert has appeared in some 30 movies during her tenure with the Hallmark Channel and doesn&#8217;t appear to be slowing down any time soon.</p>
