Barbara and Kath, much like their characters in Sabrina, embody contrasting personalities, which adds a layer of familiarity to their performances. Rhea describes Kath as a free spirit, akin to her character Hilda, and humorously notes her tendency to portray single women.
Hallmark Movie News – Typecast-Maybe!
Beth Broderick elaborates on this typecasting, revealing that their roles resonate deeply because of their contrasting natures—she identifies as an introvert, while Caroline is the quintessential extrovert.
Caroline Rhea openly admits to being a creature of habit. “I once pointed to use magic, which I found quite amusing—just out of pure instinct.”
While this nostalgic moment might seem like a concept straight from Hallmark, it was actually Rhea who proposed casting Beth Broderick alongside her after reading the script for Holiday Mismatch.
She recognized it as a perfect chance to showcase their “natural comedic chemistry;” now, fans of Sabrina are eagerly anticipating their reunion!
Mark your calendars for the premiere of Holiday Mismatch on Sunday, November 3, at 8 p.m. Eastern on the Hallmark Channel, or stream on Peacock for up to 72 hours after it airs.
