Need a little Christmas Charm in your Life? Look for Hallmark Movies & Mysteries Christmas Movies on the Hallmark Channel during Christmas in July!

Many people have been asking me lately about all the Hallmark Movies & Mysteries Christmas Movies airing on the Hallmark Channel... Why is this happening? When are they airing? etc... etc...

First off... WHY?

Well, I don't know officially, but if I had to guess I would give three reasons...

1.) It could be to pique the interest of those who don't have the Hallmark Movies & Mysteries channel to look into adding it to their cable package. Also, those who haven't seen these movies are likely to tune in, which is good for ratings.

2.) Another reason could be financial. I'm not sure how it works, exactly, but since they already aired these movies this month over on HMM, could it be that they were purchased to air an an allotted time and they can use some of that time up here? This is just a theory of mine, which could be totally wrong, but it still sounds plausible, right?

3.) Promotion. Some of these actors in these movies have upcoming NEW movie/show premieres - such as: Jill Wagner stars in the upcoming all new "Mystery 101" and Brendan Penny is one of the many stars in the "Chesapeake Shores" series, which has a new season coming up in August.

And then, there is the question of WHEN...
