TONIGHT: Kelly Kruger and Ryan Paevey In Hallmark Channel’s ‘From Friend to Fiancé’

Courtesy/Ha;llmarkChannel

When Ted gets engaged to the high school mean girl and asks Jess, his childhood best friend, to plan their wedding, things get complicated. Her true feelings for Ted keep getting in the way … and that’s the set-up for tonight’s premiere of From Friend to Fiancé  which stars Jocelyn Hudon along with daytime drama favorites: Kelly Kruger (Mackenzie, Y&R) and Ryan Paevey (Ex-Nathan, General Hospital).

From Friend to Fiancé bows tonight on the Hallmark Channel beginning at 9PM ET and 8PM CT.  In the story, Paevey plays the man at the epicenter of all the attention, Ted, while Kruger takes on the role of Kimberly Kentwood.

This movie is part of Hallmark’s ‘Countdown to Summer’ promotion of stories that always centers around love and romance and how people come together, or break apart, and them come back together again.

The cable network sent this tweet out in anticipation of tonight’s premiere: “The wait is almost over! What will Jess do when she finds out her best friend Ted is marrying her sworn high school rival Kimberly ?”

Meanwhile, Kelly Kruger announced that she will be live-tweeting with fans at 9PM during the debut of the movie.

So, looking forward to seeing Ryan and Kelly together on-screen? Comment below.

Just saw your post, and sorry we don’t agree on this one.I don’t miss Ryan Paevey one bit, because of the hunky Chase, who makes up for him 100%. His twinkley, sparkling eyes alone,”dag! he’s a stunner” Was that statement for our Peter? Sorry, just yanking your leg a little here.

Patrick Just cant help myself sometimes. I’m always afraid my humour will offend someone, but Celia says she has a crazy funny bone too, so I kind of feel I have her for backup. P.S glad you didn’t choke on your coffee!

All these Hallmark are the same stories with different titles.

For some reason, i don’t miss him on Gh. I think he has been perfectly replaced by Chase (sorry, I’m blanking on the actor’s name).

Sorry to say, I’ve not missed Ryan Paevey one bit. Josh Swickard/Chase has taken over quite well. I don’t miss Dante either. Maybe it’s true, out of sight, out of mind.

Ryan is always charming, and Kelly was also–BUT they needed MUCH stronger writing. There were a lot of empty “fillers” in the movie. To bad–much potential in both actors, if they were only given stronger material. Why can’t they get stronger writers on the movies on Hallmark? A lot of the movies lack “teeth” and substance–but a lot of the other actors featured also have potential.

Nancy,
I think they just need to replace their old cookie cutter. Maybe the old one is wearing out. Ha!

Oops! It’s not Kruger that Ryan had the chemistry with. It’s the other actress that played his best friend–Joclyn Hudonx–that he had the chemistry with. She a cutie–and was very good–AND has much potential, like Ryan, given a better script.

Now, if I can only get her name right: everyone actress deserves as much.
It’s “Jocelyn Hudon”–my apologies to her.

You can catch two of your favorites, who you first came to know from their work on General Hospital, on tomorrow night’s March 16th episode of the ABC primetime drama, Station 19 (8 p.m. ET).

Look for Daytime Emmy-winner Chloe Lanier (ex-Nelle) and Johnny Wactor (ex-Brando) to appear within the hour-long show.

In the episode titled, “Even Better than the Real Thing”, Lanier will play the role of Ciara.

According to ABC in story: a simulation fire training goes dangerously wrong; Maya tries to make amends, and Bailey encourages Carina to listen; Jack’s sister shows up at the station with a friend, an injury and an attitude.

Chloe took to her Instagram to share,  “I get into a bit of trouble on Station 19 this Thursday. Directed by the incomparable and lovely Paris Barclay! (I’m a big fan) Had such a great time working on this one and I can’t wait for you all to see it.”

Meanwhile, Wactor looks to be playing a fireman in the episode, and took to his IG and shared: “Catch me on Station 19 this Thursday, 3/16 at 8 PM. I’m excited. Too bad I can’t do a live watch party on here. I’ll have to do some research because a watch party would be fun!”

Jane Elliot Returns to General Hospital This April

Although it was previously announced back in January (during ABC’s TCA Winter Press Tour) that Jane Elliot would be returning to General Hospital, the soap opera and Soap Opera Digest have confirmed that Jane’s first episode back will air next month on April 17th.

While Elliot won’t be a part of the Nurses’ Ball which airs the week of April 3rd, as part of the show’s 60th anniversary episodes, the Daytime Emmy-winning fan favorite will be back in action during the anniversary month and beyond.

As viewers know, Jane originally decided to retire back in 2017, and so Tracy was written off to join Luke Spencer in Europe.  Since that time, Elliot has come back to the show for a few appearances.

The last time we saw Tracy was at the beginning of 2022, when she came home to Port Charles to give the shocking and tragic news that Luke had been killed in a cable car crash.  Tracy eventually went back to Amsterdam, where they had been living, to settle his affairs following his death.

Will Tracy’s return help bring down Victor Cassadine (Charles Shaughnessy) who is believed to be behind Luke’s death? Could Tracy learn Luke is really alive after all? Stay tuned.

So, excited that Jane Elliot’s return to GH is just around the corner? Comment below.
