Ryan Paevey (General Hospital) and Scottie Thompson (12 Monkeys) and star in Hope at Christmas, which premieres tonight at 9 p.m. Et/Pt on Hallmark Movies & Mysteries as part of the network's annual "Miracles of Christmas" programming event.
Recently divorced Sydney (Thompson) and her daughter Rayanne (Erica Tremblay) are seeking a fresh start and begin by visiting Hopewell, the small town in North Carolina where Sydney spent holidays with her grandparents as a young girl. Initially there only to sell the house she inherited, Sydney and Rayanne are embraced by the town in ways that only fate and the magic of Christmas can explain, and Sydney soon finds herself hopelessly smitten by Mac (Paevey), an elementary schoolteacher, fill-in Santa, and the very definition of "a good man."
Watch a sneak peek below.
The cast includes Colleen Winton (Bea), Jan Bos (Mayor Gray) Juliana Wimbles (Diane), Chris Shields (Lou), Dakota Guppy...

An in-name only sequel- it’s been six years since the last S.W.A.T. movie, Firefight, and you Really don’t have to have seen the previous film – or the 2003 original – to appreciate this, the third film in the S.W.A.T. franchise. Yet another take on the Assault on Precinct 13 story model, S.W.A.T.: Under Siege sees a Swat compound come under fire from an international terrorist who relentlessly and violently pursues a mystery man who was apprehended by Seattle Swat after a raid went horribly wrong.
So why now? Why make another S.W.A.T. film now? Maybe it’s because CBS are planning a new TV iteration of the classic series,...

There are a plethora of really shitty movies based on video games being released each year. None of them holding a candle to the source material it is based on. However each and every time I get suckered in because I want to be impressed by these attempts, as a movie fan and a gamer I need to be impressed. And let’s be honest, the premise of the Dead Rising games is just about absurd enough to work as a movie and with this being the second outing well have they learnt.
Based on the worldwide smash-hit video game series, Dead Rising: Endgame is the sequel to last years...

What really went on behind the scenes at Full House? Lifetime says they have answers.
This Aug. 22, the network premieres The Unauthorized Full House Story and promises plenty of scoop from the 1987 family comedy that made megastars of John Stamos and Mary-Kate and Ashley Olsen.
Naturally – given the show and its stars' continued presence in pop culture – the biggest challenge for the filmmakers was finding the right cast to play the beloved roles.
"Finding someone as good looking as John Stamos to play John Stamos was a challenge," says Lisa Hamilton-Daly, A+E Networks' VP, Original Movies.

This review is based on the first four episodes of season 1, made available prior to broadcast for reviewing purposes.
It’s hard for someone who has never experienced the sudden loss of a loved one to truly understand grief.
To those in its throes, it’s all-consuming, an unceasing barrage of waves constantly crashing down, threatening to wash away every sensation – save pain. Grief is always present, a physical burden as well as an emotional one, a pit in the stomach and in the mind, alternately bearable and overwhelming. Immediately after a loss, those waves come fast and ferociously, stymying all effort to break free and take a simple breath. One quite literally feels that they are drowning.
As the days turn to weeks, the weeks turn to months, and the months turn to years, though, those waves arrive less frequently. In the lull between them, mourners can begin to rebuild,...
