    Whomever types up online viewing schedules online makes a few mistakes (three in the past two days) and doesn’t always synch the online schedule with the Spectrum cable TV schedule in my area (near Tampa, FL) and maybe other areas.

    When will the Chad Michael Murray and Jessica Lowndes movie, The Color of Love, be back on TV? I tried to watch it on youtube but it was too soft, except on my phone.

    I wish GAC Family would also have a pull-down list of upcoming dates for each movie on the site when you click for information about the movie, who is starring in it, etc. Otherwise you have to just check the day-to-day schedules. I’d like to be able to do both.
