Hallmark’s “Home & Family” Offers a Daily Dose of Norman Rockwell

In television, when you have a 52-week-a-year production schedule you had better really like your job.  Thankfully for the cast and crew of Hallmark Channel’s daily chat show Home & Family, they do.  After a visit to the set its understandable why this close-knit group enjoys sharing their workload, unanimously agreeing its criminal they actually get paid to have so much fun. “You always hope to be on a good production, but that isn’t always the case,” co-host Debbie Matenopoulos told me during my recent visit to the show.  “Here there are 120 people on set and they are all good people you want to be friends with.  Big egos just don’t exist here, and I can tell you this is possibly the only place in Hollywood that they don’t!”
