When they say wholesome they mean no LGBTQ+ stories.
Lol. He joined GAC to create wholesome family stories. Hahahaha! Pity his Drew character isn’t all that wholesome
Thats disappointing. I have never or will never watch the other station. I love Hallmark and will never leave. It’s nice they want awesome TV but that’s silly. The world isn’t made that way anymore.
