And just like that, another Hallmark Countdown to Christmas season comes to a close. Our final bracket match up includes A Make or Break Holiday (featuring the world's most toxic parents) and The Christmas Baby (featuring the world's least toxic grandparents) - then, a 2025 bracket champion is crowned! But we aren't ready to say goodbye just yet, so instead rambling ensues about the Finding Mr. Christmas Reunion, Saturday Night Live, the joys of Cher, Christmas at Sea, and a little bit of Heated Rivalry. Merry Christmas to all, stay cool, have a great summer, we'll see you next season!
Outro Music - Jingle Bells (Ding Dang Dong) Lenny Pearce
With the end of the Hallmark holiday season quickly approaching (cue Angel's tear-filled eyes) the ladies not only discuss the thrilling conclusion to Finding Mr. Christmas, but also the less-than-thrilling A Suite Holiday Romance and Oy to the World. Plus cheerful side quests into Twelve Dates 'Till Christmas, Mistletoe Murders, Merchants of Joy, Brandy's Lifetime movie, Alicia Witt's Christmas tour...so many, many things.
Outro Music: Lonely Holy Christmas from Alicia Witt's Christmas Album - I Think I'm Spending Christmas With You
On the docket this week, it's She's Making A List vs Single on the 25th. Between these two movies and the emotional turn in Finding Mr. Christmas, we're talkin' stalking, support groups and grab-the-tissues sappiness.
Will "Christmas at the Catnip Cafe" claw its way into this week's winner circle or can "A Grand Ole Opry Christmas" boot-scoot into the top spot? We also detour into childhood snow-day memories and share our thoughts on this year's Macy's Thanksgiving parade!
Mel, Dory, and Erika gather to discuss the season’s fourth bracket matchup: Holiday Touchdown: A Bills Love Story vs Melt My Heart This Christmas. Did either movie give the ladies all the feels? Plus, they chat about their epic trip to Dollywood and the Finding Mr. Christmas elimination they’ve been waiting for since week 1.
The star power of Hallmark's three coolest weirdos goes up against B.J. Britt's thousand-watt smile in our Three Wisest Men vs. Tidings for the Season match up. Plus, the unexpected downside of a 12-foot Christmas tree, an unintentional prison love story, and a Christmas mystery that baffles the ladies of All The Feels. It feels important to mention that this entire episode was edited at the Knoxville Airport - a mere 30 miles from our promised land - DOLLYWOOD!!
What do holiday baking shows, family cruise vacations, and men in turtlenecks have in common? Absolutely nothing—but we discuss all of them as we attempt to stay on topic while reviewing Christmas Above the Clouds vs A Keller Christmas Vacation.
It’s our first matchup of the season! Christmas on Duty vs. A Newport Christmas. In this episode, Mel, Dory, and Erika discuss identity theft, the “science” of time travel, Finding Mr. Christmas, holiday doormats, and, of course, which movie won the weekend.
A Hard Candy Countdown to Christmas season has arrived, as it appears the recession has hit our beloved Hallmark. With almost half the amount of holiday movie premieres this season, it is a slimmed-down episode with far less debating as Dory, Mel, and Erika sift through the contenders to fill in the 2025 All The Feels Countdown to Christmas movie bracket. They also take a peek over at what rivals Netflix and Lifetime have to offer...and we've got a pulse, people!
Ugh, it's the moment we dread every year - the end of the bracket! In our final bracket match up, Double Dare nostalgia goes up against a charming amnesia Santa - and then, an overall winner of the season is crowned! Which Hallmark Countdown to Christmas movie will be declared our #1 pick? Other pressing questions - Are we in a Hallmark Renaissance or their post-modern era? Who is Russell Hainlain and why is he the best? Will we ever get tired of Tyler Hynes? What is the best way to remove wax from a menorah? But most importantly - how do you choose a favorite movie in a season full of greats? Let's raise our hot chocolates to another joyous year!
It's the penultimate match-up of the season and we're not ready to let go! This week pits Private Princess Christmas against Leah's Perfect Gift...and, well, it's basically a TKO from the jump (I think I understand sports?) Then the ladies go deep on the highs and lows of Hallmark+, and how their love affair of the season ultimately broke their hearts.
Thanks to Hallmark's much anticipated Thanksgiving premiere week, we've got ourselves an epic showdown happening! It's Deck The Walls up against Holiday Touchdown: A Chiefs Love Story. These movies gave us a whole lot - a roller skating party, team spirit, housewives references, and even a cat dressed as a quarterback. Tune in to see which movie takes home the "W" and which one spends the rest of the bracket sitting on the sidelines.
Before life gets chaotic with all things Thanksgiving, join us as we match up Christmas on Call versus Three Wiser Men and a Boy. Can a sequel take the win or will romance in the city of Brotherly Love prevail? And of course, we'll share our thoughts on Finding Mr. Christmas (let's face it - this lil' reality show has become a weekly talking point), plus a few more Hallmark+ recommendations, and we have some off bracket movies to check out.
Dory, Mel, and Erika might have found their first frontrunner of the season! Will it be Hot Frosty or Jingle Bell Run? Also, the ladies place their bets on who they think will win Finding Mr. Christmas.
Trivia at St. Nick's and Santa Tell Me are the Hallmark offerings going head to head in our third bracket match up - one is greeted with mixed reviews and one with a resounding HELL YES MORE PLEASE. Which Nick would Dory, Mel, and Erika pick? The answer may (not) surprise you! Also, the ladies just can't help but sink a snowboot further into the crazy sexy un-cool, dorky weird and wonderful Finding Mr. Christmas. Next week, we Frosty!
It's the beginning of the 2024 Hallmark Holiday Movie bracket and we're kicking things off with The Christmas Charade vs A Five Year Christmas Party. Not only do we discuss these two movies filled with FBI hijinks and theatre dreams, we also gab about ageism, punk trick-or-treaters, and Beyonce because why not?!
Note: After recording this episode, we learned Katie Findlay uses them/them pronouns. We apologize for using she/her pronouns during our discussion and will be more mindful in the future.
Week two is in the books, and the whole gang is back together. In this episode, Dory, Mel, and Erika talk about singing servers, meddling mothers, and Hallmark hunks. Will the Cyrano-style setup of A Carol for Two beat out Holiday Mismatch, aka a Sabrina the Teenage Witch reunion? Listen to find out!
We're back and ready for another round of Hallmark Christmas crazy! In this extra-extra-long episode (blame it on Hallmark's bloated movie summaries) Erika, Dory, and Mel debate this season's Countdown to Christmas offerings, narrowing the field to the lucky hopefuls that will compete in the 2024 All The Feels Holiday Movie Bracket. We've got Kelces, sexy snowmen, 90s time travel AND a 90s game show host. What more could a Big-City-Girl-with-a-Christmas-Eve-deadline-and-a-hot-but-grumpy-lumberjack-neighbor, want?
It’s hard to believe, but we’ve come to the end of the road (cue the Boyz II Men). In our last episode of the season, Dory, Mel and Erika gather one more time to discuss our final movie matchup, Magic in Mistletoe vs. Christmas on Cherry Lane, and to crown a bracket champion. We had some strong contenders this year. Listen to find out who took the crown! Thank you for joining us this season. We’ll see you in 2024!
This week's Hallmark Bracket movies bring us quaint European towns awash with trolls, woolen stockings, long-lost-family, long-lost-Counts, and LIES! My Norwegian Holiday goes up against A Not So Royal Christmas in this season's second to last match-up - and the ladies of All The Feels are once again divided. Also included are deep thoughts on fate, Christmas body switching, and Brandy in a solar-powered hot air balloon.
