The rebranding may probably have had a role in the cancellation of the show. Hallmark didn’t really say anything about the reason for the cancellation. The rebranding may have curated some of the remaining shows and may be eyeing a different direction for the future, as Hallmark Media is leaning toward digital distribution and streaming after the rebranding. The show has loyal viewers, but it’s on cable TV.
The sudden finale also got mixed reviews from some fans as they expected more for the finale, given that the network just suddenly cut this family-friendly series. They said that the final episode seemed rushed and that it didn’t give justice to the whole series.
Maria Fischer, Director of Network Program Publicity of Crown Media, said that the series just reached its logical conclusion after 13 years of success. Even though the series started in 2015, the movie series on which the show was based was first released in 2008. The movie franchise has seven movies, released every year from 2008 until 2014.
