    So upset that The Christmas Card will not be on the Hallmark Movie Channel this year. This is the one movie hubby and I look forward to the most. I might also add that we have been watching the new Christmas movies for this year and there are very few that we would watch repeatedly like we did The Christmas Card and others. They just don’t seem to have much substance this year. We don’t get the Hallmark Movies & Mysteries channel.

      I agree. Why should I have to pay twice for the Hallmark channel when already I had to upgrade to get one Hallmark channel. Sick of seeing the same Christmas movies instead of showing the old original ones. Hallmark keeps showing new ones over and over again practically every other hour. I just purchased The Christmas Card at Walmart for $4.88…didn’t open it yet.

    I agree with all the others, The Christmas Card, needs to be aired on the regular Hallmark Channel, multiple times on multiple dates. It is one of my most favorite Christmas movies. Such a great story with substance whereas so many of the newer Christmas movies are all fluff with characters I don’t care about! I also cannot afford to pay for the Hallmark Movie Channel on Time Warner. Cable is already too expensive. I remember last year watching this movie several times. I checked other stations and they are not playing it this year either. I don’t have a working DVD player right now, so even if I bought it I couldn’t watch it. You need to be sure to schedule and show The Christmas Card so the majority of fans are able to watch it on the regular Hallmark Channel.

    I have been waiting to see “The Christmas Card” this year.
    It is very disappointing that it’s not on the regular Hallmark Channel this time. So many of your movies are being show over and over, and it boggles my mind why you have chosen to not include this one on the 2014 schedule.
    Guess it is too late for you to reconsider, but I certainly would love to see it this Christmas season. It is one of my faves, if not my all time favorite. Not sure I get the other Hallmark channel.

    I see that you note The Christmas Card is not going to be on the regular Hallmark Channel. I think you need to re-think this. My Mom is in a nursing home and they have Hallmark but not all these other fancy-ass channels. Please show this on the regular Hallmark – more than one time at 3AM when those of us who work and the elderly can enjoy this as it is a wonderful movie and reminds us to be thankful for those who served our country as well as being a wonderful Christmas movie about what is important in life. Caring about each other!

    Please play my favorite Christmas movie – “The Christmas Card” on the regular Hallmark Channel!! I don’t have the Hallmark Movies & Mysteries Channel. I look forward to seeing this movie every Christmas…it’s a tradition. If it’s not, can you tell me if it’s on Netflix or a DVD? Thank you.

    It really sucks that all the good movies have been taken off the regular Hallmark channel. Some people like myself don’t get the Hallmark movie channel. The Christmas Card and November Christmas are 2 of my favorites. Please bring them back to the regular channel.

    I was bummed to see that The Christmas Card or Silver Bells isn’t airing on Hallmark this year. I don’t have the other Hallmark Channel on my line-up and I’m guessing Time Warner charges for it, cable is too much as it is, one reason I keep cable is because of the Hallmark channel but I can’t pay extra for an extra Hallmark channel. Please, please put them in the line up, this is nearly all I watch each year and two of the three I enjoy are The Christmas Card and Silver Bells.
