Candace Cameron Bure shocked fans in April 2022 when she announced that she was leaving Hallmark Media for Great American Media.

Candace Cameron Bure recently told Variety that she left Hallmark to join the new network Great American Family in order to create “wholesome” and “family-friendly” content.

As reported by Variety, Bill Abbott, the former CEO of Hallmark’s parent company, Crown Media, departed in 2020 after controversy erupted over Hallmark choosing to remove a Zola commercial featuring two women getting married from the network. They cited a desire to avoid controversy at the time but eventually reinstated the commercial, as reported by Deadline.
