Movie #2079 "When Calls the Heart: Home for Christmas(Hallmark) I had heard about this series, and my smart t.v started DVRing it for me without my asking(I guess it looked at my track record for recording Hallmark xmas movies)but I didn't really watch one of them until this year. I thought it was pretty blah --- but disclaimer,I just picked it up several years into this series. To do right by it, I should watch the pilot and watch a few examples of the show. I noticed Michael Landon, Jr did the first few in the series, and now someone else is writing and directing. And maybe that has affected the quality of the show somewhat, but this one looked like a watered down "Little House on the Prairie" movie --- tries to be it, but fails. There were a few good moments, and some of the characters and their everyday stories were entertaining, but this did not make me ever want to watch this series again. Maybe just at Christmas. I'd give it a very weak 3-- with -a shout out for the best story in the movie--- it concerned an African American man, new in town, learning how to be a good salesman with integrity --- and he learns it from the town doctor.
