Eh, that just ruined it for me.

I enjoyed his work on AMC, but he is just too vanilla for me.

Terrific news. Congratulations to Cameron.

Ugh! I hope he has had a voice “transplant”, taken acting lessons, and has come down his high horse since his AMC days. Won’t watch.

I know…He was gawdawful on AMC. Two thumbs down on this casting announcement.

It will be interesting to see if he has a different (better?) acting style than when he played Ryan on AMC. I like the guy, so I hope this character is a good fit for him. Playing with Alison should help.

Well that acquisition just tanked that series of movies. I don’t intend to watch his annoying behind.

JoanneFluke? any connection to LukeFluke?…kidding!!!…lol…ill watch the new movie series with AS and CM!!!

OH nooooooo ….

Loved him on AMC when paired with Kendall, but he is too vanilla for me otherwise.

Too bad they could not get James Scott for this. I would love to see a less chaotic romance between the two actors on screen.

Was not going to watch but I will now. Cameron was great in AMC. I miss seeing him as well as all the cast of AMC.

Will love seeing Alison in this new project but am disappointed Cam will be in it too. It may be better than i think. We will see.j

Glad to see actors from axed soaps getting work on other projects. Will be interesting to see how these two do in these new roles.

Cheers to Cameron who continues to get acting and hosting gigs. One could argue he is doing as well as any alumnus. Regardless of whether I was a fan of his character I’m happy for him.

lol
Cameron Mathison is no longer playing the role of Ryan from AMC.. good for him..
He has gone on into great roles since AMC ended. more than any others whom have been jobless since then his career has flourished, good for him ..
Cameron Mathison will do well in the Chocolate Chip Cookie Murder, looking forward to watching the mystery.. 🙂

oH GO BAKE SOME COOKIES…and SHUTTY su0000…but seriously..best seller or not…is that REALLY the right title to draw viewers…oh HALLMARK…the good folks at SUNNYACRES are sure to enjoy TV time now LOL….

Love Ali Sweeney and was looking forward to this series. Sorry, but Cam Matheson played a big part in the downfall of AMC IMO. I’ll probably tune in and give it a shot, but really wish they had chosen just about anyone but CM. 🙁

Happy for both Alison and Cameron. Looking forward to watching this new show! Congratulations to Alison, Cameron and Hallmark on the coming franchise.

I can hardly wait to see Allison in that movie with Cameron as I miss her so much on days of our lives but at least I get to see her on biggest loser. Hope she comes back on days cause her character Sami is supposed to be in California for only six months and as for Cameron he wasn’t too bad on dancing with the stars.

Just watched Cameron Mastison on the Hallmark murder series. Frankly, he looks terrible. So thin and it doesn’t look good. Has he been ill??

Malachy McCourt, ‘Ryan’s Hope’ and ‘All My Children’ Actor, Dead at 92

If you watched Ryan’s Hope through its 14-year-run, you know that Kevin the bartender became a beloved “member’ of the Ryan clan on the defunct ABC daytime drama series. The character of Kevin MacGuiness became so loved by the fans because of the actor who portrayed him, Malachy McCourt.

Sadly, according to his wife Diana McCourt to The New York Times, Malachy passed away on Monday from a heart condition and battling cancer. The actor was 92-years-old.

Playing Kevin on Ryan’s Hope was not much of a stretch for McCourt, because in his lifetime, he was the owner of 1950s Irish pub Malachy’s on Third Avenue in Manhattan. Known as one of the city’s great story-tellers, patrons from longshoremen to the actor Richard Harris would stop in and talk all things Irish with . On Ryan’s Hope, Kevin was best friends to “Ryan’s Bar” owner, Johnny Ryan (Bernie Barrow) and he tried to keep Delia (Ilene Kristen) on the straight and narrow.

In his soap opera career, McCourt also was widely-known for his role of Father Clarence McCourt on All My Children especially come Christmastime. Was Clarence, actually St. Nick? That was always the proverbial question. McCourt also appeared on the New York soaps: One Life To Live, Search For Tomorrow and Another World. Other roles included: Devil’s Own, Brewster’s Millions, The Molly Maguires, and Starman, to name 

Later in 2006, Malachy ran for governor of the state of New York as a Green Party candidate. He tackled social issues of the time including being an advocate for gay and lesbian groups to march in the annual St. Patrick’s Day Parade.

McCourt’s childhood was recounted within his brother Frank McCourt’s Pulitzer Prize-winning memoir Angela’s Ashes, which detailed their mother’s attempt to raise the four of their surviving seven children in poverty in Limerick, Ireland. Later, Malachy wrote his own memoirs: 1998’s Monk Swimming, and 2000’s Singing My Him Song.

Malachy is survived by his aforementioned wife, Diana, daughter Siobhan McCourt; sons Malachy Jr., Conor and Cormac; stepdaughter Nina Galin; nine grandchildren; and one great-grandson.
