Meeting a Hallmark star and appreciating b-story lines
We kick off this episode with an exciting run-in story you won't want to miss! Somehow we caught all of the Lifetime movies from the second full weekend of December, including Christmas in Alaska, Thank God: Christmas at Keller Ranch, Rodeo Christmas Romance, and Runaway Bride for Christmas. Yeah, there were two "ranch/raunchy" movies with plenty of inuendo. We couldn't bring ourselves to catch the latest GAC films, but we did enjoy Hallmark's offerings, Oy To The World, which included both Christmas and Hannukah traditions, and A Suite Holiday Romance, which we enjoyed a lot more along with back tracking to My Secret Santa (Netflix).

Kinda down for Scary Christmas, but let's remember to appreciate mom
We review Christmas movie premieres from the first weekend of December! We find ourselves once again in the genre of trying to fulfill dead Grandma's dying wish with Christmas at Mistletoe Manor (GAC), but also go to England yet again in new Hallmark tv show, 12 Dates 'Til Christmas. We had high hopes for She's Making a List (Hallmark) which fell flat, but we perk right back up with Lifetime Movie Network's Do You Fear What I Fear as part of the "Slay Bells" series. Deck the Hallways (Hallmark) and Amazon Prime's Oh. What. Fun. were pretty good! (Dis)honorable mention to Hallmark's Single on the 25th and The Christmas Cup.

A grown up A.C. Slater plus time travel strikes again
It's a mega Thanksgiving episode! So many movies, so little time. Plus Lifetime finally makes their movie debut. Let's see if you can guess our thoughts on Great American Christmas' A Christmas Spark, Jingle Bell Heist (Netflix), Grand Ole Opry Christmas (Hallmark) and our call for justice for Vivica A. Fox and Jackée Harry in The Christmas Campaign (Lifetime). We had some honorable mentions in there because there's just TOO much!
