Hallmark’s new “Winter Escape” movie lineup has just launched, and two of the network’s biggest shows are continuing strong this week. Here’s what Hallmark viewers have to look forward to for January 6-12.
Hallmark Channel’s Premieres This Week
January continues to be a big month for the Hallmark Channel, with new premieres on Fridays, Saturdays, and Sundays.
‘The Way Home’ Season 3 Episode 2 – Friday, January 10 at 9 p.m. Eastern
Season 3 Episode 2 of “The Way Home” premieres on Friday night, January 10 on the Hallmark Channel. Then the episode airs for Canadians on Sunday, January 12 on the W Network.
The second episode is titled, “The Way We Were,” and marks the characters’ first trip back to the 1970s. The synopsis also reveals that “Kat realizes her biggest challenges and possibly her greatest adventure is waiting for her at home” and “Elliot must trust his gut when an unwanted visitor shows up, and a jarring revelation leaves Del reeling.”
The cast list includes some new faces, including cast members Jordan Doww, Julia Thomasone, Devin Cecchetto, Eli Ham, Grayson Gallanders and Philip Riccio.
‘Polar Opposites’ — Saturday, January 11 at 8 p.m. Eastern
Starring Rhiannon Fish and Markian Tarasiuk, this new Winter Escape movie premieres on January 11.
The synopsis reads: “Emma needs to get to Antarctica to reach her father and travels to South America but can’t get on a boat for the last leg. She sneaks onto a cruise ship and meets engineer Andy.”
Just a note: In a public Facebook group for Hallmark fans, some viewers noted that the description for the movie on their digital cable or streaming guides is wrong and showing the description for an older “Polar Opposites” movie from 2008 that is not a Hallmark film. This description will likely be updated as we get closer to the movie’s premiere.
‘When Calls the Heart’ Season 12 Episode 2 — Sunday, January 12 at 9 p.m. Eastern
The season 12 episode 2 premiere of “When Calls the Heart” airs on Sunday night. The episode is called “You Get What You Give.”
The synopsis reads: “When the comic book craze sweeps Hope Valley, Elizabeth teaches her students through nature. Rosemary launches a radio show, and Lucas meets a new political player.”
Hallmark Mystery This Week
Hallmark Mystery doesn’t have a new movie premiering this week. However, “The Jane Mysteries: A Deadly Prescription” will be airing at 8 p.m. Eastern on Thursday, January 9, marking the TV channel’s first airing of the Jodie Sweetin and Stephen Huszar mystery movie. It already aired on Hallmark+ this past fall.
The description reads: “Jane seeks justice for a teenager who’s wrongfully imprisoned for murder. She and Detective John work together to prove the teen’s innocence and help reunite him with his mother.”
Hallmark+ Premieres This Week
While we don’t have brand new content airing exclusively on Hallmark+ this week, viewers who don’t have access to the Hallmark Channel will get to enjoy all the new premieres a day after they aired on TV.
So “Polar Opposites” will be available for streaming on Sunday.
New episodes of “The Way Home” season 3 will be streaming every Saturday.
And new episodes of “When Calls the Heart” will be available for streaming on Mondays, the day after they air on the Hallmark Channel.
