It has been only two months since Hallmark Channel reshuffled its morning lineup, replacing among other shows, Martha Stewart's daytime talk show. Earlier this fall, Hallmark debuted Marie with Marie Osmond, a pretty good chat show at 12 noon.

But, perhaps more significant, it also kicked off Home & Family (9am), a two-hour lifestyle show that Paige co-hosted with former Entertainment Tonight host Mark Steines.

Paige's last day was Friday. Hallmark offered up a brief explanation, saying Paige is "temporarily" returning from Los Angeles, where the show tapes, to New York.

Starting today, and fingers crossed longer than that, Cristina Ferrare (OWN's Cristina's Big Bowl of Love) is stepping in as co-host.
