Lori Loughlin, one of the Hallmark Channel's biggest stars, has been fired by the network, after being accused of paying $500,000 in bribes so her daughters could get into the University of Southern California.
"We are saddened by the recent news surrounding college admissions allegations," Crown Media, the Hallmark Channel's parent company, said Thursday. "We are no longer working with Lori Loughlin and have stopped development of all productions that air on the Crown Media Family Network channels involving Lori Loughlin including Garage Sale Mysteries, an independent third-party production."
