“Craft Me a Romance...

Jodie Sweetin is disappointed that her movie, Craft Me a Romance, was sold to Candace Cameron Bure's network, Great American Family (Gaf), which has come under scrutiny for its lack of inclusivity and traditional marriage storytelling. Sweetin expressed her support for the LGBTQ+ community and stated that any money made from the sale will be donated to LGBTQ+ organizations. There have been rumors of a rift between Sweetin and Bure, but both actors appeared together at an event earlier this year.

Full House's Jodie Sweetin is "disappointed" that her new movie was sold to former co-star Candance Cameron Bure's network. After portraying Stephanie Tanner in the original sitcom, Sweetin returned for the 2016 sequel series, Fuller House. Since then, she's appeared in numerous television films for Hallmark Channel, including Finding Santa and A Cozy Christmas Inn. Bure, who is also well-known for her work on Hallmark, began creating content...

Jodie Sweetin is not pleased that her latest movie “Craft Me a Romance” will debut on Great American Family (Gaf), the network her former co-star Candace Cameron Bure works for.

After admitting she was “surprised” by the news, Sweetin added, “I am disappointed, but in keeping with my mission of supporting the LGBTQ+ family, any potential or future money made from this sale will be donated to LGBTQ+ organizations.”

Sweetin acknowledged that it can be difficult for actors to know where their work will or will not premiere, especially since that decision isn’t theirs to make. She added, “Sometimes, we, as actors, don’t have control over which network buys the projects we are in, nor are we a part of the process in which they get sold.”

Jodie Sweetin is not happy about where her latest made-for-tv movie will be airing.

Sweetin is coming forward after news emerged that her film, “Craft Me a Romance”, was picked up by Great American Family (Gaf).

The recently rebranded network (formerly known as Great American Country) was launched by ex-Hallmark Channel head Bill Abbott, after he was forced to step down as CEO of Crown Media Family Networks (Hallmark’s parent company) after backlash bowing to pressure from anti-gay groups by pulling a commercial that featured a same-sex couple.

Since launching as Gaf in 2021, the network has managed to snag numerous Hallmark Channel actors to star in the channel’s Hallmark-style movies, including Sweetin’s fellow “Full House” alum Candace Cameron Bure, who signed an exclusive deal with Gaf.

Jodie Sweetin is not a happy camper. The former Full House star is expressing disappointment that her upcoming film Craft Me a Romance has been sold to Great American Family, the network where her former Full House co-star Candace Cameron Bure serves as chief creative officer

In a statement to People, Sweetin said she was surprised the film had been sold to Gaf without her knowledge.

“Sometimes, we, as actors, don’t have control over which network buys the projects we are in, nor are we a part of the process in which they get sold,” Sweetin said. “So I was very surprised to learn by reading about it in the press yesterday that the independent film I worked on over a year ago was sold to Great American Family.”

Jodie Sweetin is expressing disappointment that her upcoming film Craft Me a Romance will air on Great American Family, where her former Full House co-star Candace Cameron Bure has a deal.

In a statement shared with The Hollywood Reporter, Sweetin said she was not aware that the rom-com would land at the cable channel, which was the subject of headlines late last year when Cameron Bure said that “traditional marriage” would be the focus of stories featured on Great American Family. This was in contrast to the Hallmark Channel, the previous home for Cameron Bure’s numerous Christmas rom-coms, having recently featured LGBTQ characters in its movies.

“Sometimes, we, as actors, don’t have control over which network buys the projects we are in nor are we a part of the process in which they get sold,” Sweetin said. “So I was very surprised to learn by reading about it...

“Full House” alum Jodie Sweetin expressed disappointment to People magazine over her new film, “Craft Me a Romance,” being sold to the Great American Family (Gaf) network, which counts her former co-star Candace Cameron Bure as its chief creative officer. Bure ignited controversy last fall after she told The Wall Street Journal that Gaf would be keeping “traditional marriage at the core” of its output, meaning it would be highly unlikely for Gaf shows and films to include LGBTQ+ couples.

“Sometimes, we, as actors, don’t have control over which network buys the projects we are in, nor are we a part of the process in which they get sold,” Sweetin said in a statement. “So I was very surprised to learn by reading about it in the press yesterday that the independent film I worked on over a year ago was sold to Great American Family.”

So I was very surprised to learn by reading about it in the press yesterday that the independent film I worked on over a year ago was sold to Great American Family.

Jodie Sweetin‘s upcoming film Craft Me a Romance is coming to the Great American Family channel, and she is speaking out against the channel once again, stating she had no “control” or knowledge of the network’s purchase. “Sometimes, we, as actors, don’t have control over which network buys the projects we are in, nor are we a part of the process in which they get sold,” the Full House alum exclusively told People. “So I was very surprised to learn by reading about it in the press yesterday that the independent film I worked on over a year ago was sold to Great American Family.” “I am disappointed,” Sweetin continues, “but in keeping with my mission of supporting the LGBTQ+ family, any potential or future money made from this sale will be donated to LGBTQ+ organizations.” It was previously announced that Sweetin’s new movie was part...
