Hallmark

NOT A COMPLAINT. BRAVO Hallmark for running the ZOLA ad featuring a lesbian couple getting married!!! Offended Hallmark watchers, especially the woman who thinks this will scar her TODDLER? We're NOT going away, we're not immoral, love is love. For you faux (fake) Christians, I guess Hate is obviously a family value. Shame on you.

Lost another veiwer

You will no longer be a family friendly network so change that on your website. I cannot believe companies keep bowing to the minority of people and risk losing the majority. You know that most of your viewers would not approve of this. We will no longer watch.

Please reconsider!

I am so sad Hallmark!
I feel like one of the last faithful few has fallen.
My children were not allowed to watch the Disney channel, so have grown up watching your channel.
I’ve never felt I needed to mute the commercials, or fast forward through certain parts of your programs.
We could count on Hallmark to be clean, and a safe place from the rest of the crazy world.
I am so sorry that seems to be changing.
I do ask you Hallmark to reconsider. I know you are in a very difficult place, but please tread carefully!

commercials

I am extremely disappointed that Hallmark is showing commercials of two women kissing. This is supposed to be a family channel. Why are you caving to satisfy the complaints of a minority of people? I don't want to see this kind of thing on tv and I most certainly don't want my kids seeing it. I won't be tuning in to your channel anymore.

Content

Please realize that 97% of your viewers do not want immoral content; that's why we subscribe to your channel. If you change the content and commercials you are going to lose the base that sustains your channel. We are not prejudiced, we are just looking for something that matches our preferences. If you lose us you lose your business. It's not good business sense to cater to 2-3%.

Gay movies

Come on Hallmark! You are helping young kids to be confused by seeing two women getting married and kissing. That’s one reason so many children are questioning what sex the really are.
Gay people use to keep to themselves now since they have come out of the closet they have to express themselves in public.
This gay stuff is just sickening. It’s hard enough explaining to kids
Why two people of the same senx are kissing on tv and in public.
Don’t get me wrong I have some gay friends but they act normal and not showing the are gay. They have even admitted that the Bible and God do not accept what they are doing.
God made man and women and expects them to be couples and have children the normal way if they can’t then they adopt. I totally disagree with gays adopting! Do they raise them gay? Also a scary thought if when the child gets older do they expect the child up participate with them?
This world is just sick and if you are going to put these gay movies on my family and friends will no longer be watching your movies!!

Saddened by Hallmark

I am so saddened see you have reversed your position on the same-sex marriage ads to now allowing them and I'm sure in the future movies as well. Its America, so in fact it is your choice to do so. That said, I will not be endorsing Hallmark any longer or watching any of their programs...definitely its disappointing b/c I've always enjoyed it...you've been a safe place for traditional families. More and more I find myself having to get away from TV in general b/c its everywhere, despite the fact that clearly the "majority" do not prefer its content. At the end of the day, this is not about individual people, its about something God calls an abomination. Love the sinner but hate the sin. No not just same sex marriage, but also other elements of immoral behavior like living together outside of marriage, abortion …. the list goes on and on...these are other topics you've done well to avoid. And no, I'm not judging, God did that, He judged me as well b/c for sure I do not lead a perfect or sin free life.....but there is a great difference between falling into sin, recognizing it as sin and doing your best to remove it from your life and then this...basically flaunting a behavior that clearly goes against God with no remorse.

LGBT Ads

As one of your previous complainants put it - you have caved to the world. It saddens me to see this wholesome family channel not have the courage to stand up to the pressure of this lobby. It is a loss for all of us.

No pickles no tacos

Never watched your channel but I know a few who do. It is a sad state of our current situation in this country that a few can bully you into changing your morals on programming. WEAK!

There are about 3% alphabets (LGBQRST). I bet a very small % even watch your channel. So WEAK.

You have made a grave mistake with your audience and Jeffery Epstein didn't kill himself.

Recently Decision re: commercials

I was extremely disappointed that you buckled to pressure and reinstated the commercial with homosexual content! My family has always been a big fan & frequently watched your channel but that will have to cease since you’re promoting & displaying sexual content that younger audiences should not see!
I think you should poll your viewers to see who is actually patronizing your channel! The loss is yours!!!!

Gay Activity

Hallmark, once a sanctuary as the rest of the TV world went mad, has joined the madness. Hallmark was the home of family-friendly, wholesome programming that we could trust with our children's eyes and minds. This turn to gay and perverted issues has made it unwelcome in our lives. I'm truly sorry Hallmark had bowed to radical thought.

Disappointed on your Zola ad reversal

I was very disappointed that Hallmark reversed their decision on showing the Zola commercial. This would have never been an issue if Hallmark would have stuck to their original platform and never aired it to begin with. The reason your channel has been successful in the past is because it was different from any other station. By changing your viewing material makes this channel no different than any other channel and does not give you a competitive edge. I hope Hallmark changes their decision and views on this topic in the future.

heterosexual issues

I DO NOT WANT TO SEE ANY ADVERTISING SHOWING ANYTHING OTHER THAN HETEROSEXUAL KSSING. THE NEXT THING YOIU KNOW WE WILL BE WATCHING NON HETROSEXUAL MOVIE CONTENT WHICH I DO NOT WATCH. I EVEN QUIT WATCHING SUPER GIRL WHICH I LOVED WATCHING UNTIL IT WENT OVER THE TOP. CHOOSE YOUR ADVERTISERS MORE WISELY OR LET THEM KNOW THAT ONLY CONTENT FOR HETEROSEXUAL SUPPORT WILL BE ACCEPTED. SORRY THE LGBTQ TARGETED YOU.

Novie and ad content

Wholesome has been your brand and what attracts the huge proportion of your audience. I don't want to boycott your network , stores and products. It would truly be a significant loss to me and my family. Your attraction to your vast audience elevation of God, family, and country. Please don't let the vociferous nature of a small minority of folks that probably don't watch Hallmark anyway drive the much larger, quieter majority away If you listen to the loud voices you hurt far more than you will appease and your business will suffer,

Keep Hallmark Movies morally Clean

We love hallmark movies and are very concerned about your caving to the LGBT story line. As Christians we are under attack from every side. Your Hallmark channels, movies and shows have been a breath of fresh air and almost all we watch in our household. Only other channels we watch are news and sports. The current trend of Hollywood is morally corrupt. Your channels were the one place we could go and watch as a family without worrying about nude scenes, strong language, or morally corrupt life styles brought right into our living room. The politically correct trend in this county is tearing our nation apart and away from the founding principles that made this country great and different from any other country on this earth. Now so called progressives and liberals are stealing our nation from the vast majority who want to preserve our founding principles and keep our country great.

There is a higher calling than to cave from pressure from a few and penalize a large number of your patrons. We will flush hallmark channels if you cave to the pressure. We pay extra each month to have your channels. We will not pay for morally corrupt movies or advertisements to come into our home. I feel certain there are many more out there that feel the same.

Caving to celebrities

I'm done with you. I'm a Believer, not a judger; however, I do not find where the Bible says to believe in homosexuals at all. I don't judge them, but do NOT intend to watch a television show about them at all. My choice. Goodbye you sad people that bow to the "celebrity" world.

Thank you for keeping your channel Family Friendly and not cow-towing to a very small and verbal minority of individuals and groups who want to remove you from the opinions of the mainstream of American opinions and traditions.

Commercial of Lesbian Couple Kissing

I am shocked and disheartened by the Lesbian couple kissing on the commercial you are showing on your movie channel. Every year I look forward to the Hallmark Christmas movies all day long and like all of us, can't wait for the commercial advertising when you will start the season. We watch your channel because of it's "G" rated content and Christian values and don't have to worry about seeing a commercial with this content. Like Hobby Lobby and Chick-Fil-A, take a stand on what we all know to be the truth. In your heart of hearts, pull this ad from your channel now matter what the backlash is! I promise your followers will continue to watch your channel throughout the year and especially at Christmas, no matter what the LGBT community has to say about it! Are they truly more of a voice?

If you continue to show this commercial, I will boycott your channel and so will my family and all of my Christian friends. As I see on most of the complaints, I am not the only one. "I will shake the dust from my feet sayeth the Lord our God."

Amen to all the Others that take a stand with me!

God Bless

LGBTQ concession

So very, very disappointed in Hallmark. I had taken great hope after you declined to run more LGBTQ ads but now learn that you will begin again. I had already noticed some same-sex couples in the backgrounds of your movies so had stopped watching those particular movies. Then, I listen to Kristin Chenowith on Fox and Friends the other morning talking about her deep Christian faith but declaring herself an LGBTQ activist. I know that some of your actors in romantic lead roles are also gay. Please do not mistake me......I am a Christian and try to love everyone as the Scriptures indicate, but this is also taught as not being the right thing. I have watched the Hallmark channels for years and have tons of dvd's. The members of my household are not able to get out much so Hallmark has become a major part of our lives, especially at Christmas. I am so very sorry you are bowing to the pressure of the LGBTQ community. It seems that one after another of our wholesome businesses have been doing this. Do you not see what you are doing to your base? Do you not even have the level of business intelligence to know that this will ruin your brand? I have yet to decide to turn off your channels completely, but there is no doubt that I will change the channel during ads and will look unfavorably at your other sponsors since they will be continuing to link themselves to Hallmark. I beseech you to reconsider your decision. The viewers stand to lose so much, and Hallmark stands to lose everything from their financial standing to their moral well-being. You are in my prayers.

Gay Relationships

I cannot tell you with enough passion how DISGUSTED I am about the Hallmark commercial I saw this morning on NBC that showed two women kissing!! YOU'VE GOT TO BE KIDDING!!! The lgbtq community is very LOUD, but they ARE NOT VERY LARGE!!! Hallmark has been the only place we can go to where traditional values are supported. I CAN GUARANTEE YOU THAT IF YOU SHOW HOMOSEXUAL/GAY RELATIONSHIPS YOU WILL LOSE THE MAJORITY OF YOUR VIEWERS AND I PERSONALLY WILL GET THE WORD OUT LOUD AND CLEAR TO OTHERS. I also have had a hard time watching the many openly gay men in your movies. Yes, your movies are not totally based in reality, but it is at least more believable when you know the couple are heterosexuals.

Hallmark, you are going to destroy yourselves if you endorse the gay agenda/lifestyle. The MAJORITY of your viewers don't want to see it!!
