Hallmark Channel Eyes Marie Osmond for Daytime Show

Net in Talks with Variety Star Following 'Martha Stewart Show' Cancellation

Andrea Morabito (Broadcasting & Cable) -- Multichannel News, 1/26/2012 4:50:43 PM

Hallmark Channel is in negotiations with Marie Osmond to launch a show on its daytime lineup, a network spokesperson confirmed Thursday.

The channel said Osmond would host a lifestyle show, though it had no further details about the proposed format. She currently appears in a Las Vegas variety show with her brother Donny Osmond.

The news follows reports earlier this month that Hallmark would not renew daytime talker The Martha Stewart Show, with new episodes set to end in May and repeats running through the summer. That would leave a spot for Osmond's show to join the lineup in the fall, though the network spokesperson said the fall schedule has not yet been determined.
