Women take center stage this August as Hallmark Channel delivers four riveting and inspiring stories of strength and survival.

Mackenzie Allen has a lot on her plate –three kids, an ambitious husband, and the daunting task of being the first female President of the United States. Playing the role of Mackenzie Allen, Academy Award winner Geena Davis topbills the cast of Commander in Chief, the critically acclaimed White House drama about the first woman at the helm of the free world. Following the death of the President, Vice President Mackenzie makes the tough call to take over against everyone’s wishes, including Speaker of the House and formidable rival, Nathan Templeton (Donald Sutherland).

Now, Mackenzie has to contend with Nathan’s hostility, foreign leaders unaccustomed to dealing with a woman in power, and her husband who’s less than thrilled to be the First Husband, a role that’s tough to swallow.

Catch the stellar performance of Geena Davis as she takes on her most demanding role yet—as a powerful leader, concerned wife and conflicted mother in "Commander in Chief" every Sunday at 9 p.m.

Becca Wasserman (Marissa Jaret Winokur) isn’t exactly the ideal vision of perfection but she always knew she was special. She’s got the smarts, the spunk, a great fiancé and a loving family. But in order to win a honeymoon vacation, Becca must step into unfamiliar grounds, the world of beauty pageants, where girls with curves are not a usual sight. Does Becca have what it takes to be a "Beautiful Girl?" Catch the premiere on August 24, Sunday at 9 p.m.

A mother’s keen sense of intuition kicks into high overdrive when her teen daughter disappears in "Seventeen and Missing," airing on August 31, Sunday at 9 p.m. Dee Dee Pfeiffer stars as Emily Janzen, a mother who’s convinced that her daughter has been abducted. Blessed with clairvoyance, Emilie must use her skills to find her daughter before time runs out.
