HALLMARK CHANNEL'S CRITICALLY ACCLAIMED HIT PRIMETIME SERIES "THE WAY HOME" RETURNS FOR MORE FAMILY DRAMA, MYSTERY AND TIME TRAVEL WHEN SEASON 2 PREMIERES JANUARY 21

Andie MacDowell, Chyler Leigh, Evan Williams and Sadie Laflamme-Snow Reprise Their Roles from its Breakout Inaugural Season

STUDIO CITY, CA - November 21, 2023 - The Way Home, Hallmark Channel's critically acclaimed, original hit primetime drama series returns for its sophomore season on Sunday, January 21 (9 p.m. ET/PT), the network announced today. Andie MacDowell ("Maid," "Debbie Macomber's Cedar Cove"), Chyler Leigh ("Supergirl," "Grey's Anatomy"), Evan Williams (Blonde, "Versailles"), Sadie Laflamme-Snow ("The Apprentice"), Alex Hook ("I Am Frankie"), Al Mukadam ("Pretty Hard Cases," "The Detail"), Jefferson Brown (Masters of Romance, "Slasher"), David Webster (Luckiest Girl Alive, "In the Dark") and Siddarth Sharma ("Homeschooled," "In the Dark") reprise their roles in the multigenerational family drama that captivated viewers from the premiere episode.

By the end of its first season, The Way Home became the #1 most-watched program overall among Households, Women and Persons 18+ and Total Viewers while on air.*

"The first season of 'The Way Home,' exceeded all our expectations on every level," enthused Lisa Hamilton Daly, Executive Vice President, Programming, Hallmark Media. "The hard work of our talented writers, cast and entire crew gave viewers a compelling family drama they instantly became invested in and created a passionate fan base that grew with each and every episode."

"We all fell in love with the Landry women and their complex, emotional story and are thrilled that it resonated so strongly with viewers," began Laurie Ferneau, Senior Vice President, Development, Hallmark Media. "We can't wait for fans to continue this journey, which is filled with more heartfelt drama, emotion and mystery - season two does not disappoint."

In the first season, the multigenerational family drama introduced viewers to Kat Landry (Leigh), her 15-year-old daughter Alice (Laflamme-Snow) and Kat's mother Del (MacDowell), three generations of women who are strong, willful and independent. After being estranged for nearly two decades following the unsolved disappearance of Kat's eight-year-old brother Jacob (Remy Smith) and untimely death of family patriarch Colton Landry (Brown) that prompted Kat to move away from her Canadian farm town of Port Haven, Kat moves back with Alice when she finds herself at a crossroads in life. Shortly after arriving, Alice unwittingly discovers the ability to travel between the past and present via a pond on the family's land. Soon, mother and daughter become determined to unearth the truth about these past tragedies and attempt to change the course of events. Elliot (Williams), Kat's childhood friend who always held a torch for her, is there in the present to help guide both of them in their journey, as well as in the past for Alice as his teen self (Webster).

Season two starts where the shocking season one finale left off and put viewers on the edge of their seats - with Kat exclaiming to Del that she knows what happened to Jacob. As Kat continues her quest to find Jacob and bring him home, mother and daughter uncover unexpected revelations about their origins that bring answers to some questions while new ones are raised.

"The Way Home" is a Neshama Entertainment production in association with MarVista Entertainment. Heather Conkie, Alexandra Clarke, Fernando Szew, Hannah Pillemer, Larry Grimaldi, Ani Kevork, Arnie Zipursky, Marly Reed, Suzanne Berger, MacDowell and Leigh are executive producers. The series is produced by John Calvert. Mitch Geddes serves as executive in charge of production for the studios.
