Hallmark
reviews and complaints

I am very disappointed in Hallmark for showing movies with gays. I am a proud Christian and I have every right to voice my feelings as Candace Cameron Bure did. I am proud of every Hallmark actor and actresses that left for GAF channel. They totally have my respect. No one has the right to force such disgusting movies or commercials down our throat or our children and grandchildren's throats. Hallmark hasn't showed any respect for your viewers. If you choose to be gay keep it behind closed doors.

Dear Hallmark,

We have been faithful viewers of your movies for many, many years. But now, all that has changed because of your decision to embrace the Left’s progressive ideologies which criticize traditional values. You are no longer apolitical. For many of us, you have become the new bully on the block, using your network to indoctrinate viewers into accepting Woke and LGBTQ lifestyles. We find all of that highly offensive to our way of life. I can only ask at this point, what other types of immoral behaviors have you in store for your viewers? Much like the LGBTQ movement, pedophiles are incorporating the progressive Left’s mantra of “diversity and inclusion” in order to normalize their perverted behaviors.

As you can see, any kind of evil behavior will be tolerated if the words “diversity and inclusion” lack moral absolutes. When progressive Leftists say that we should allow all views, what they actually mean is all views except those that contradict their ideology, such as Christian views. They are intolerant of the worldview that teaches morality based on the absolutes of God’s Word. You are not walking the “diversity and inclusion” walk by omitting the Christian worldview from your movie plots.

Hence, we no longer feel welcomed by your network. In our opinion you are taking our culture in the wrong direction, away from free speech and freedom of religion. So, we have stopped watching your movies. Nor will we watch anything on your network that embraces the Left’s progressive ideologies. We will now seek other places of entertainment that don’t attack our values. We have also stopped purchasing your products because we will not support an entity that has zero respect for our beliefs.

Good-bye.

Unbelievable how you no longer cater to your core Christian demographic. Done with your wokeness absurdity. Your channel is no longer family friendly when both parents and children can enjoy the same content. Go woke go broke. Moving onto GAF and thank God for this alternative. Hallmark chose ruin and I predict it will only be a matter of time now. Stop ruining our free country with your Marxist ideology.

Hallmark used to mean you were safe from Uber-wokeness in movies AND commercials but sadly not anymore. To see a Ru Paul drag commercial is so out of character, and that character is what had me leaving my tv on one of the Hallmark channel for HOURS. NOT so anymore. The insertion of blacks in EVERY movie and saturation of blacks in MOST commercials is overbearing and I am seeking other more realistic content. I have a choice and as steadfastly loyal as I have been to Hallmark, I AM LEAVING.

Purchased these at full price and they went on sale for half the price. I called customer service and was offered $10 gc then a manager was suppose to call me and never did. I called again and was told sorry can’t adjust but maybe you can repurchase and return them. Then went on chat and got disconnected cause chat was closing. This is just poor customer service and not acceptable. We will never purchase a hallmark product again.

The hallmark movie, the holiday babysitter, was very inappropriate for children, yet it showed a g rating for all audiences. Two gay grownups passionately kissing on the mouth is almost a blanket acceptance of the gay lifestyle while the majority of your viewers support the christian view of sexuality. Since there was a g rating on this movie, busy parents thinking there would be nothing in it violating their traditional family values may have left impressionable, confused or children to watch this movie alone. I will be making my opinion known to hallmark sponsors.

Dear Customer service representative. I purchased three rather expensive Christmas bags to hold and bring gifts that I give each family, and then I expected when they were empty to reuse them for other Christmases. I paid $5.99 for each bag and I bought 3 of them probably last Christmas or the year before. The problem with them is that while they are beautiful with gold leaves and red berries and red trim with gold lines, the front of the bag is filled with gold sparkle which gets all over everything! Relatives don't even want me bringing the bags into their homes! If I pay $18 for three Christmas bags to tote to and from relatives, I expect to be able to keep them and reuse them. The reference numbers are XGB 2595, Gift Bag SAC-CADEAU with scan number [protected]. I would like some compensation for them because they are beautiful but so terrible that they can't be used as intended.

For your information, I will no longer buy any Hallmark Christmas cards that have glitter as part of their decoration for the same reason. When you are writing out cards, glitter gets on the table, or on my hand, I did buy 5 boxes of absolutely lovely Hallmark Christmas cards in white with blue writing but with no glitter!

I have always enjoyed and watched your movies. They were healthy, good story line, and just stood above all of the Hollywood Filth. Now you have been influenced by the WOKE and Gay 2% Society, and incorporated their views into films that the other 98% enjoy. I will and have turned off your movies that have any form of this 2% WOKE infection. Many more I have to turn off, Hallmark Movies will be avoided by myself, and the other 98%.

In the last two to three years, Hallmark has gone woke and it's very tiring. Every movie and show has a gay couple or love story. If you look at in terms of the actual percentage of gay people to straight people, Hallmark movies make it seem like it's almost 30% of the population is gay.

The reality is it's less than 5% of the population. If Hallmark must include a gay couple or storyline, at least stick with the correct percentage instead of having them in every single movie.

However, they have lost many, many of their top stars because of their stupidity in not listening to them and their viewers. They caved in to the pressure, like everyone else in the entertainment business, and they're losing viewers too.

I've watched almost all the movies this season on Peacock because we cut the cord this year. Since Hallmark stupidly chooses not to stream their current movies on their apps, the fact that they're showing their movies via Peacock shows just how badly they need viewers.

The problem is that most of the movies this season are bad. They're either poorly written or poorly acted or both. Not to mention they brought in ridiculous themes for several of them. That only leads me to believe they lost a lot of writers too.

Wake up, Hallmark! Stop the woke! You're only hurting yourself.

I can no longer watch your Hallmark Christmas Movies with my children because the content is not appropriate for younger children. You have made too much of an effort to include LGBTQ couples on all levels. My kids don't need to see couples with two fathers, lesbians, and worse. These types of "unions" are not normal, and they never will be. I'm tired of trying to answer questions from my kids about "what is going on" in your movies. Please return to heartwarming Christmas movies that the whole family can watch together. This means traditional male and female relationships without the "other stuff". We're moving to Great American Family movies until you change your ways and return to family values. Stephen & Anita Winkler

I am very disappointed in your movies involving gays in marriage and kissing ..l have always been a hallmark fan and have ordered many movies.

Every time l see a gay or lesbian movie l will not watch it ..

l am happy the options are opening up for us as Christian’s .

It was never Gods plan in creation ..but we like telling him what’s acceptable .

I had a Four hour visitation with Jesus once and

I know your on the wrong side of this .

Just read the Bible ..

We have been watching the Hallmark movies for years and passing it on to friends. We can no longer do that because of the gay and lesbian lifestyles advertised and pushed on us. We have to change the channel and move onto GAC where they value relationships between a man and woman and family values. My friends are saying the same thing. We are very disappointed.

I was encouraged by my husband to pay 4.99 for this app so that I could watch these movies when I wake early in the morning and could watch in the privacy of my living room. However, none of the new movies are available except one or two. There were a couple I was really looking forward to seeing And can’t because they are not added to the Hallmark Movies Now app and channel w even after they debut on the Hallmark channel. Is there a good reason for this? Most of the ones on the app I’ve seen at least a couple of times and I was looking forward to seeing the new ones. I’d love an explanation.

I have enjoyed Hallmark movies for many years. The last few, however, I have been unable to even finish. The movies have gone down in quality in all areas — the script, the quality of acting — every aspect of the movie seems to offer the least amount of effort possible. The story lines are so predictable now that there’s no reason to watch — each movie acts as a checklist. Couple meets and dislikes one another immediately? Check. Couple must work together however on mutual project? Check. Make that project a small town festival? Bonus points. Include copious amounts of dialogue to require less set changes? Yes — we noticed. Make one of the couple a Royal and the other a commoner with the last scene a Royal ball? Check check. Start adding social statements into the movies that feel contrived? Check. Lack of any pride in backdrop details such as falling snow added to bright blue, cloudless skies, fake flowers added to landscape, every shot obviously requiring a fall or winter flower or ribbon in the background — we get it already, it’s fall or winter or whatever the theme.

So Hallmark has chosen to offer us assembly line movies. Obviously we’re not choosing what we believe will be Oscar contenders when we choose to watch a Hallmark movie. We don’t expect, however, to be insulted by the movie. Hallmark’s target market is women viewers. Would they offer so little effort for a movie targeted to men? Definitely not. Looking for a social statement? Make movies for women that take more than just minimum effort because I think your minimum effort just hit the point where your viewers will leave for other networks. I am now looking to PIXL and GAF now for viewing options.

We tried a show on Netflix. Way to much ABC people and their sick actions. We thought for sure Hallmark would be a good clean Christian based Channel.

First Christmas’s show shown in 2022 was falling in love in the country. It shows two women. We thought they would find some cowboys. Nope, they found each other.

This is sick and not normal, no matter how hard parts of our sick society tries to claim it’s okay.

We were going to cancel Netflix and join Hallmark, but you are just as woke as the rest of Hollywood. So sad. There are plenty of god fearing peeps out there to keep you alive without having to resort to filth and parts of our off beat society.

Longtime Hallmark customer, age 74 and am very disappointed in the direction your new CEO is taking as far as LGBT. I was so enjoying your Three Wise Men and a Baby movie and laughing out loud in parts. Then Paul Campbell has a talk with his brothers about the baby and mentions the "Dad and Mom" but you just had to add into the script "Dad and Dad or Mom and Mom" which totally turned me off. There is your"filtering in" the wrong teachings. Dad and Dad can't make a baby or Mom and Mom. I have been enjoying Great American Family Network and many of my friends are too. Hallmark leaves a bit of a bad taste in my mouth for past couple years. My suggestion, which I know you won't do is

to say before the movie starts as a disclaimer: This movie contains content

that will be offensive to Biblical based Christian families or "LGBT's will love

this movie and leave it at that. So disappointed with direction you are taking.

I have been watching the Hallmark Channel longer than I can remember and all of a sudden every movie has to have the gay couple and the black couple Or the interracial couple It is so sad that even Hallmark is.pandering to the mob. Homework used to be a good family values channel but not anymore you must have a nice diversity and equity white people hating division Less than 1% of the population is LGBTQ RST UV or whateverAnd 13% of the population is black how many of those are women let's be generous and say 7% how many of those watch Hallmark let's be generous and say 2% so you've started a whole division called mahogany that is again canceling white people how about you have a channel called vanilla that's just white people oh that would be racist wouldn't it but it's not racist to have a whole black channel Let me tell you can pander all you want by calling people under privileged and underservedWe are all created equally it's what we choose in life that makes us prosper or so quit with the victim status quit treating white people like they are nothing while pondering to the left and speaking of left that's what I just did and I won't come back so whoever you put in charge and your new Equity people will put you in the same position Disney is in and I hope every ChristianAn American loving individual turns you off and never goes back how dare you after the years of loyalty of your viewership throw us in the garbage to pander to < 3% add it all together but I'm sure you're black equity and inclusion director is very pleased. It's so funny you talk about blacks underserved how many blacks are in Congress how many blacks are heading governmental offices they're not served 13% and more than 50% of government so take That reality And stop your pitiful pandering

Inwas watching the movie Time For Him To Come Home For Christmas and felt VERY offended that Holland Roden (Elizabeth Athens) did not shake the COO’s hand under the ruse of having cupcakes in her hand (first 3 minutes). I did not continue to watch this movie after this blatant show of disrespect. Common sense would have warranted for her to put the cupcake on the platter that she was holding and then have some proper manners and shake his hand. Her “mother” was standing there and did not dictate proper manners as well. It felt RACIST. Please cast and do better. I love Hallmark and would hate to have to find another network to watch for Christmas stories

We use to love Hallmark movies and mysteries, but we will we no longer be viewing this channel. We are now viewing the Great American Family channel which we feel provides movies that the majority of people want to see. We are disappointed in the woke agenda appearance in almost every show. I feel like it is being pushed down my throat. Fortunately, there is another channel that represents the majority of people. Hallmark is following Disney's woke agenda and it has cost them millions. I have contacted many of your advertisers with my complaints .
