Candace Cameron Bure Slammed After Announcing New Channel With 'Traditional Marriage' Content

The former 'Fuller House' star left the Hallmark channel in 2021 to form the Great American Family channel after Hallmark's push for diversity.

It seems Hallmark's "queen of Christmas" Candace Cameron Bure won't be blessing us with any of the channel's new holiday releases this year, as she is vowing to put "Christ" back in Christmas.

Bure left Hallmark and joined its former CEO Bill Abbott at Great American Family Channel, which she told the Wall Street Journal would be focusing on "traditional" families.


Hallmark has been making efforts to make their films more diverse and inclusive, releasing its first same-sex-centered holiday movie this year.

It seems Bure doesn't find these types of movies have "meaning" or make for "good family entertainment."

"My heart wants to tell stories that have more meaning and purpose and depth behind them."
"I knew that the people behind Great American Family were Christians that love the Lord and wanted to promote faith programming and good family entertainment."

She continued to share Hallmark "basically is a completely different network than when I started because of the change of leadership."

When asked if GAF might one day have same-sex couples, Bure replied:

"I think that Great American Family will keep traditional marriage at the core."

Responding to the same question, Abbott said:

"It's certainly the year 2022, so we're aware of the trends."
"There's no whiteboard that says, 'Yes, this' or 'No, we'll never go here'."

Trends?

Marginalized people are trends?

That definitely garnered a response.

As for Bure, the masses seem to be saying, "Good Riddance."













In Abbott's and Bure's joint interview with Variety, Abbott offered that those wishing to tell more diverse and inclusive stories should probably pitch their ideas to Netflix or Hallmark versus GAF.

We don't see any GAF and chill in our near future.

Stephen Colbert Makes Somber Plea To Americans In Wake Of Charlie Kirk's Death

Late-night host Stephen Colbert had a somber message for Americans as he addressed the assassination of far-right activist Charlie Kirk, stressing that "political violence only leads to more political violence."

Kirk died after an unidentified gunman shot him in the neck as he—ironically enough—mocked victims of gun violence at an event in Utah Valley State University. Kirk's murder has galvanized the far-right, with President Donald Trump and his surrogates claiming without evidence that rhetoric from Democrats is responsible for Kirk's death.

TikToker Hilariously Calls Out Target After Champion Pants Feature Awkwardly-Placed Front Pleat

Sometimes you can just tell when something was designed *for* women, but was not actually designed *by* women.

Take, for instance, the new pleated pants available at Target from the Champion clothing line. While there's nothing wrong with pleated pants and they certainly have a suitable spot in the workplace, the latest rendition of Champion pleated pants are, shall we say, NSFW.

Woman Goes Viral After Revealing How Her Obsession With Matcha Landed Her In The Hospital

Let's be honest: Too much of anything isn't good for us. It's all about the balance!

But the media and social media trends have taught us that certain things are really good for us, encouraging us to be like the "very mindful and very demure" girls and take care of ourselves. One such example is drinking more matcha, especially if you really like coffee or think you have a caffeine addiction.
