I haven't seen this one yet, but I love the first one and Tatiana was very effective in her role as Tilly. I doubt she can be replaced.

Terrible news:
This was a total rip-off of the original film,
they replaced Tilly (Tatiana Maslany) with
another actress and the rest of the original cast,
Helene Joy as the mother and her brother (Gage Munroe) as Solomon
and sister (Vivien Endicott Douglas) as Prudence are not in the film.
The didn't even use the original writer or director,
they also stole the title from the original film.
Jacqueline Bisset was the lone survivor from this wreck.
(Kristopher Turner) did return as Gad Hopkins.

Yeah, I finally watched most of this on Hallmark last year, I just couldn't get into the characters or the storyline.
I'll just watch the original every year and forget this hum drum sequel was ever made.
Perhaps Hallmark will release another sequel and make up for lost time? Maybe.

YankeeDood: What a waste of film,
they never bothered to use the original cast!?

I have to agree with you. I saw the first film and enjoyed it, which is the reason I tuned into the sequel. Tilly was the main character and I thought she was young and charming, so I was baffled and disappointed that she'd been replaced by another actress of a much different type.
