EXCLUSIVE: Hallmark Channel has greenlit The Way Home, the first primetime series to be ordered under the leadership of Executive VP of Programming Lisa Hamilton Daly of Crown Media Family Networks.
The Way Home is a family drama that follows the lives of three generations of women within the Landry family — and it comes with a time travel twist. Here’s the official logline for the series that’s set to begin production this summer in Ontario, Canada: “Kat Landry, her 15-year-old daughter Alice and Kat’s estranged mother Del are all strong, willful and independent. More than 20 years prior, lifechanging events created a chasm in their family that time has yet to repair. Kat and Del still aren’t on speaking terms. Alice has never met her grandmother and is unaware of the reasons for their fractured family. When the three generations come together under one roof for the first time in more than two decades, a surprising discovery unexpectedly sets the trio on a path toward healing and helps them find their way back to each other.”
The series will premiere on Crown Media’s flagship cable network in 2023 with casting announcements expected in the coming weeks. The series is executive produced by the mother-daughter team of Heather Conkie (Heartland, Port Hope) and Alexandra Clarke (Heartland, Hudson), with Larry Grimaldi, Hannah Pillemer, and Fernando Szew exec producing for MarVista Entertainment and Arnie Zipursky and Marly Reed exec producing for Neshama Entertainment.
