There were three of those "series".

Chad & Abby in Paris, Chapter One 
Eight episodes Aug. 1 – Sept. 5, 2019

Chad & Abby in Paris, Chapter Two
Eight episodes Sept. 19 – Nov. 7, 2019

Last Blast Reunion (takes place in New York City)
Eight episodes Nov. 29, 2019 – Jan. 16, 2020

They were on a special "app" called the "DOOLapp" and that app was available only in the US.  You had to have the app -- they couldn't be watched in a regular browser window.
They weren't streaming, and they weren't podcasts, but they were sort of like that.  Some viewers referred to the episodes as "appisodes" for lack of a better term.  The show officially called it a "Digital Series". 
Each episode was between 6 and 10 minutes long.  The first few were uploaded at once; and then one episode was uploaded each week thereafter.

These series sort of had same concept as what Beyond Salem does now - Salem characters interacting outside of Salem. It was canon.  But if you only watched the main daytime show and never knew about the DOOLapp "appisodes", it wouldn't disrupt your continuity of watching the main daytime show.

The characters of Chad and Abby had exited the main daytime show prior to this. They had left Salem and were living in Paris.   This was a quick way to check in with the characters without requiring a longterm taping commitment for the actors.  The episodes were so short that I think each "chapter" was filmed in a few days.

They introduced the character of Li Shin (Remington Hoffman) for the very first time in  "Chad and Abby in Paris".  Li and Chad worked in the Paris office of DiMera Enterprises.   Later on, Hoffman debuted as Li on the main daytime show in April 2020.

For the digital "Last Blast Reunion" in New York, they brought back several of the original actors from the Last Blast Dance teen crowd of old for a reunion - who hadn't been on the main daytime show in many many years. Including Jay Kenneth Johnson and Heather Lindell -- who came to the main daytime show later in 2020.

In a different sort of carryover ...  the 2019 Chad and Abby in Paris apartment set was used for the first time for the main daytime show in 2020 -- the set was used briefly at various times when Salem characters were running from the police and went to France and hid out at the DiMera Paris apartment.

even if she did say she would "never" return that's a long time and the pandemic has made a lot of people rethink. 

 

pretty much, especially now that Hallmark is basically dead and I don't think her movie series/character was one of the ones GAC Family decided to take with them...?

Alfonso did one Hallmark "Chronicle Mysteries" film with Ali Sweeney, which was released in 2021.

Alfonso did two Lifetime movies which were released in 2021. The films were based on V. C. Andrews "Landry" books
