You may not clock David Weaver's name in the credits, but you have almost certainly watched his work with a blanket over your knees. He has been directing for Hallmark since 2008, and 26 films later he counts as a fixture behind the camera rather than a one-off hire. Christmas is a big part of the brief, with nine holiday titles, and small towns are clearly his comfort zone, the setting for sixteen of them. He shoots it straight, no high-concept gimmicks, just the cozy stuff done cleanly, which is why his ratings land right around the network average. His sharpest outing is 2019's Bottled with Love at 7.0, with Raise a Glass to Love and his 2008 start Charlie & Me close behind.
