The Way Home is staying on Hallmark. The cable network has changed its release strategy for the drama’s third season.
Andie MacDowell, Chyler Leigh, Evan Williams, Sadie Laflamme-Snow, Alex Hook, Al Mukadam, Jefferson Brown, David Webster, and Siddarth Sharma star in the drama, which follows three generations of the Landry family.
Hallmark previously announced plans to roll out the third season of The Way Home on Hallmark+ in January. Viewers of the Hallmark cable channel would then have to wait until fall to see the new episodes.
This led to fan outrage and threats of boycotting the show entirely. Season three of The Way Home will now premiere on Friday, January 3rd on Hallmark Channel, and the episodes will be released the next day on Hallmark+.
Season three will pick up where season two left out, with Kat (Leigh) and her brother reuniting and preparing to enter their family home.
The announcement from the series’ Facebook page is below.
What do you think? Are you a fan of The Way Home? Are you glad Hallmark Channel viewers won’t have to wait to long to see the third season episodes?
WE ONLY HAVE the Hallmark channel. NOT Hallmark +. Please continue these shows on the Hallmark channel!
If i had know that i wouldn’t have signed up for hallmark+ so I think it’s crappy now they change their mind after encouraging people to sign up for Hallmork+ with the expectation it would air there earlier than the Hallmark channel. I love this show and only signed up for Hallmark+ to watch it early.
Them moving it to Friday nights means it will be the last season anyway probably.
Love the show…renew it please
I really loved this show. Never missed it
I was extremely upset and so were my family and friends when they announced that it was only going to be on the streaming Hallmark plus Channel. And yes we were going to boycott Hallmark over this because it’s our favorite show. It was a wise move for Hallmark to keep it on the Hallmark Channel. However I have already upgraded my cable so it includes GFAM. I can’t believe how many Hallmark stars are on there. And I love their content. Lookout Hallmark!
I was so upset that is wasn’t going to be on hallmark until the fall. I would have to wait for the new season for a year and a half. I was not going to buy another streaming service just to watch one show. I won’t buy paramount for that reason.
I can’t believe Hallmark would even think of moving this especially now they have lost so many to competitive channel. I’m still waiting for the Movie Mystery series they used to have. I have also read that Lacey Chablet (sp.) is being fazed out as being too OLD. Really? Maybe Hallmark should let the viewers decide.
So happy that it will be on regular Hallmark instead!
As it should be. I’m sick and tired of every channel charging for content, especially when it’s already started on one service we pay for. People can’t afford all these extras.
I think it’s a way of make us sign on to Hallmark
I am really happy it will be on the hallmark channel and hallmark+ if I miss one channel i still watch it on the other!
