 You’re probably bored of hearing this but it really is just a few hours to go until The Sweeter Side Of Life gets its first public airing on The Hallmark Channel in the US of A.
If you get a chance to watch it don’t forget to drop by and let us know what you think with a comment or two. There will be a follow-up post with a poll after the première. If you want to write a full review then please let us know so we can publish it here on KM UK.
You could also join the KM UK Chat page to live post about the film as it airs.
Countdown to the East coast and Central showing:
 With just a couple of days to go until the première of The Sweeter Side Of Life we’ve come over all nostalgic.
Not just for the time last year when we first heard of this project (it had the slightly more interesting title of Confections Of A Discarded Woman back then) and we were all clamouring for news about it.
No, for some reason we find ourselves harking back to the 1980s. All the big hair, bright make-up, shoulder pads, rolled up jacket sleeves and dodgy European pop anthems. Can’t think what is causing it… 
The gentleman you see on the right, on the set of The Sweeter Side Of Life with Kathryn, is Steve Varnom. He’s the one with the beard 😉 You will have seen him in the trailers and some of the promo photos for the film. Steve plays Eddie, Desiree’s (Kathryn) lawyer and he is one of the many English actors in the film. The full-sized version of the photo is available in the Gallery.
We very much look forward to finding out how that outfit features in the movie, assuming it does. It could very well a highlight 😛
To further mark the pending première we have a couple of poster image updates. The first is an increase in size of the 2nd poster and the other is a new version which looses the Hallmark branding and few more minor changes. They are also now in the Gallery.
 We didn’t screencap trailer 3 for The Sweeter Side Of Life last week because it was just about identical to the second one we’d posted previously.
Now, however, an HD version of the trailer has been posted on YouTube by Hallmark (another bit of quality work on the title of the video by them we might add) so we thought we might as well.
The images are of the 720p variety as, sadly, the 1080p version is not really full HD, just the 720p one scaled up. Throw in YouTube quality video and what you’re left with is not great. Best to stick with the intermediate size.
The screencaps are now in the Gallery.
Just 5 days to go until the US première.
 Over night (UK time) the Hallmark Channel finally got into gear with promoting The Sweeter Side Of Life, a new TV movie starring Kathryn and due to début a week tomorrow (on the 19th January 2013).
The film finally received a more significant presence on the Hallmark Channel’s website with a description of the plot, photos (you’ve seen them here already), a very brief bio for Kathryn and a “new” promo video.
 This “new” trailer is akin to replacing the stripe on the side of your old car and calling it a new car. It’s the same as the 2nd trailer KM UK brought to you over a week ago but with a changed font for the title and a purple hue to the graphics instead of blue.
The banner image (see above) on the site, and the similar image that appears at the end of the video (see the Gallery for a larger screenshot) is new as well, though, again, it is more “new” than new and isn’t all as it might first appear. It is clearly based on one of the promotional photos but with new accessories, a painted gloved white hand, re-positioned and reshaped arms, and a re-profiled dress around the cleavage. Kathryn’s face, and possibly whole head, is also not from the original photo. It is probably taken from an unreleased shot from the same photoshoot.
At least they’ve spelt Kathryn’s name correctly this time.
The banner image, screenshot and “new” video are now in the Gallery.
 By now you should have it practically tattooed on the inside of your eye lids that the TV movie The Sweeter Side Of Life débuts in the USA on the Hallmark channel at 9pm (8pm Central) on the 19th of January. The Saturday after next.
Those of you with access to the Hallmark channel should have your alarms and, if you have them, PVR/Tivos devices primed to record it. However, if you manage miss this momentous occasion live then there are a number of times in the following few days when you can correct this massive oversight.
 We do have to deal with the small matter of America being spread across four timezones. Not a situation us Brits are used to. We only get one, albeit the one that all the rest are relative to Further complicating things is that rather than having TV shows start at, for example, the four different versions of 9pm, they only use two: East Standard Time (EST, in places like New York) and Pacific Standard Time (PST, in places like Los Angeles). The middle of the country is covered by the aptly named “Central” (which is the 2nd timezone but generally takes in the 3rd one called Mountain as well). Which leaves us with each show being given 2 times in the form 9/8c, meaning 9pm in EST & PST and 8pm in Central. Of course, those that need to know this stuff have no doubt been dealing with it since birth, rendering this lengthy paragraph largely redundant 😐
Straight after the première broadcast there is a repeat showing. There are 4 more in the first first week, all after noon:
- 19th January: 9/8c and 11/10c
- 20th January: 1/12c and 9/8c
- 25th January: 8/7c
- 26th January: 3/2c
We’re nearly there.
Update (11 January 2013): There is a further showing of the film scheduled for 24th February at 3pm on the Hallmark Channel.
