He saves a Christmas musical and discovers love, family, and friendship as the greatest holiday gifts. He reunites with his family and friends.AIR DATE & NETWORK FOR THE SNOW MUST GO ONNovember 28, 2025 | Hallmark ChannelCAST & CREW OF THE SNOW MUST GO ONCorey Cott as Isaiah HeywardHeather Hemmens as Lilly-AnneBRAN'S THE SNOW MUST GO ON SYNOPSISThe movie starts with a Rudolph musical. It's safe to say this is off-Broadway. Actor Isaiah Heyward wrote, directed, and stars in the one-man show that no one cared about. He put his heart and soul into it, working on it for over a year.His sister, Jess, and her daughter, Aurora, show up to cheer him on and invite him home for Christmas. He says he has a big Broadway audition tomorrow, so he can't come.Isaiah shows up for the audition and sees a poster for a musical he was in long ago. Now, he can't even get in the room to audition before the casting director leaves for the day. To make matters worse, he gets fired from his caroling gig for showing up late.With nothing else going on, he heads home to Hancock.His sister picks him up and immediately guilt-trips Isaiah for not being around for Aurora, who is struggling to adjust to her parents' divorce. To make it up to her, he offers to pick her up from school — and naturally ends up taking over as director of the Christmas musical when the old director quits.The school guidance counselor, Lilly-Anne, gets roped into being the staff supervisor.But it turns out Isaiah doesn't just have to direct — he has to finish writing the show, which happens to be about reindeer.It doesn't take long for Lilly-Anne to open up to him about her past. Isaiah discovers that one of the kids in the theater program is the daughter of the woman cast in the musical he wanted to audition for. He hatches a plan: he's going to cast himself as the lead to impress her.Aurora hears about his plan and volunteers to help make his vision come to life.Lilly-Anne helps Isaiah learn how to work with kids, including helping one student, Steven, conquer his fear of singing in public and audition for the musical. There's a lot of confusion over why Isaiah cast himself as the lead, but Aurora convinces everyone they're lucky to learn from a Broadway legend.He starts spending more time with Lilly-Anne outside of rehearsals — holding hands while looking at Christmas lights, watching a movie together, and shopping for a bad Charlie Brown-style Christmas tree.After showing off his stage lighting setup, Isaiah and Lilly-Anne share a kiss — but he's conflicted because he hasn't told her the truth about why he's the lead.To help the kids feel comfortable performing in front of an audience, they go Christmas caroling.The more Isaiah cares about the kids, the wiser he feels — but it's time for the final dress rehearsal. He finds out a producer will be in the audience, so he goes out there and crushes it. The producer finds him backstage and invites him to the city on Christmas Eve to audition. Isaiah is thrilled — it's what he's been waiting for. Unfortunately, Lilly-Anne overhears, is upset, and demands he tell the kids the truth, or she will. It does not go well.He goes to the audition but can't focus, constantly thinking about letting the kids down. He tells the producer he has to return to Hancock to see the lead — the kids' performance — and pleads with her to come with him.She shows up just in time to give a pep talk, and Isaiah arrives behind her to apologize to everyone.The show is a smash hit. He tells Lilly-Anne this is his favorite standing ovation. He confesses that he has a new dream — one with her — and decides he doesn't want to go back to Broadway. The snow machine starts, they kiss, and he quips, “The snow must go on.” Watch the show on Youtube - www.deckthehallmark.com/youtubeInterested in advertising on the show?

Exclusive 10% off entire order -  www.kringles.com  // Promo Code:  HALLMARK25---The amazing Dave White joins us to break down this year's animal-themed Hallmark Christmas movie: Christmas at the Catnip Café.ABOUT CHRISTMAS AT THE CATNIP CAFÉOlivia Pierce, a marketing executive, discovers her late great aunt's cat café in New York, which she believes will be a Christmas miracle. As she helps plan fundraising events, Olivia gains a deeper appreciation for the feline inhabitants and the special place her great aunt created.AIR DATE & NETWORK FOR CHRISTMAS AT THE CATNIP CAFÉNovember 30, 2025 | Hallmark Movies & MysteriesCAST & CREW OF CHRISTMAS AT THE CATNIP CAFÉPaul Campbell as BenErin Cahill as OliviaBRAN'S CHRISTMAS AT THE CATNIP CAFÉ SYNOPSISThe movie kicks off with a TON of kittens. Suddenly, we flash back 30 years: a young Olivia is walking into her house when she hears something… could it be a cat? And that's it for the flashback—obviously, a necessary flashback.Cut to the present day. Olivia is checking out a place way out of her price range when she gets a text from a lawyer: they need to talk about her aunt's estate. She's been given half of a cat cafe. Olivia's wheels start turning—if she can convince the other owner, Ben, to sell the cafe, maybe she can afford that dream place!But Ben is no ordinary owner. He's an overly generous vet, giving pet care away for free and taking on way too many patients. The good news for Olivia: Ben never says no.She walks into the cafe, plays peekaboo with a cat, and dives straight into business with Ben. She wants him to sell. He's not having it—the cafe is very important to him and also acts as a place to get cats adopted.It turns out Ben lives right down the block from Olivia's aunt's house. He's searching for a binder about Catnip Christmas that's gone missing and is surprised to find Olivia there. She finds the binder, and he explains that Catnip Christmas was his aunt's pride and joy. He's not sure how he can manage it all on his own. Olivia offers to help—but only if he agrees not to delay the sale of the cafe.Ben says he doesn't want to sell. Olivia reminds him he can't stop the sale, only slow it down. She says she'll be all in on the project as long as he agrees to sell. He reluctantly agrees, thinking she won't actually want to move forward with the sale.Olivia quickly realizes she's in for a lot more than she expected: cat puppet shows, story time, and all sorts of festive events. Along the way, Olivia and Ben start getting closer. He even helps decorate her Christmas tree.Through a flashback, we learn that little Olivia once found a kitten outside her aunt's house. Could this cat cafe all stem from that moment?As they spend more time together, Ben opens up about feeling like life's big moments happen for everyone else—babies, milestones—and that he wants something for himself before it's too late. The sparks begin to fly, and while decorating the cafe for an event, Olivia and Ben share a big, sweet kiss.Complications arise when Olivia admits she still plans to sell—the life she has in California can't be ignored. She tells Ben it's hard because she really likes him. He reminds her that they made a deal, so he'll move forward with the sale.On her way out of town, Olivia stops at a mechanic and sees a kitten. The mechanic tells her he adopted it from this cat cafe. Olivia takes it as a sign and rushes back to the cafe—only to find the contract has already been signed with a developer. But the developer is holding a cat, so Olivia asks nicely… and he rips up the contract.Olivia is staying, and the movie ends with her and Ben celebrating—and kissing again.

She gets a knock at the door from her pal Mac, who keeps pushing her to let him sign her and record some songs. She insists that's not happening.Mac owns a bar in Nashville, where Gentry works and is mostly happy—despite everyone constantly asking about her father. Why did he quit music? And where is his missing guitar?Family friend Rita stops by with a plea from the Opry: they want Gentry to attend the Opry's 100th anniversary to honor her dad. Gentry isn't sure.Over drinks, we learn that Mac and Gentry have been friends since high school, but Mac insists he has zero romantic interest in her. Mmmhmm. Sure, pal.Gentry, Mac, and Rita head to the Opry and tag along with a tour guide who looks suspiciously like Erin Cahill. Backstage, Gentry bumps into Von Winters, who asks why she's hesitant about attending the anniversary. She explains she always wanted to be a songwriter, but it didn't work out, and she never earned her place in the Opry Circle. Von tells her that her time may not be up—it's Christmas, after all.She goes out onto the Opry stage to think. A blinding light hits her and suddenly—she's transported back in time. There onstage are her dad and Von doing soundcheck. Before she can talk to him, she's zapped back to the present.She runs to tell Mac, who absolutely does NOT believe her.Determined, Gentry sneaks back onto the stage again. Another blinding flash—and boom—she's back in time, bumping into a younger Rita.Mac, worried about her, goes to the Opry. He sits in a pew, gets blinded by the light, and he time travels too. He finds Gentry and she explains they're in 1995, right before the final Winters & Wade performance. She tells him she needs to find out why her dad walked away from music. Young Rita spots them and assumes they're a married couple, insisting they stay at her apartment.The next day, Gentry goes to the Opry pretending to be a label rep so she can talk to her dad. Jett tells her he and Von are getting along great and have songs ready for their next album. This makes Gentry wonder if they're in some alternate timeline where the breakup never happens. Mac urges her to stop overthinking—maybe they were brought back for a reason.Later, Gentry overhears Von talking with their manager, who wants the duo to change their style. Jett is absolutely not on board.At a Christmas party, she overhears them discussing bringing in new writers. Jett is furious. When he sees her, he assumes she's part of the label agenda and storms off.Gentry goes outside to the fire pit with Mac and opens up about memories of her father, including a song they started but never finished. Mac asks her to sing it. She does—and Jett secretly listens from behind them.The next day, Jett approaches her to apologize and tells her the song is really good. He asks why she never finished it. She says he passed away before they had the chance. He invites her to come to the Opry the next day so they can work on it together.She agrees, and they spend the day bonding while Mac records a video of them singing. Their session is cut short when Von and the manager show up—they've moved the recording session up to December 26 to prep for a world tour. But that means Jett will miss Christmas with his family, and the long tour makes him uneasy.The next day, Jett is missing. Gentry knows exactly where to find him—his “thinking spot.” She and Mac go there, and she basically convinces him to walk away from the duo and choose family.Afterward, Mac and Gentry finally kiss.The next day, Von calls Gentry in and reveals he knows she's not a label executive—but he thinks she's a great songwriter and wants to work with her.Before the big performance, Jett tells Von he's out. This will be their final show.Right before the set, Mac realizes Jett doesn't have his pick. He runs it over, trips, falls onto a pew—BOOM—transported back to the present.After the show, Jett finds Gentry, gives her his guitar, and she hugs him. Suddenly—bright light—and she's transported back to the present with that very guitar in her hands.Von is about to give a speech and calls her up onstage. He tells her that her dad was proud of her and that they actually wrote a song together. Von knows. He invites Gentry into the Opry Circle. She speaks about her father, and Von reveals he invited Brad Paisley to perform the song she wrote with Jett. As the song plays, we see 1995 Jett return to the Christmas cabin and hug his family.In the present, Von says he's ready for that songwriting meeting. Gentry gives him her dad's guitar, then goes to talk to Mac—and they kiss again. Mac shows her the video he recorded of her singing with her father and tells her he can't remember a time he didn't love her. They kiss even more, right there in front of the Opry.

This time we head to Buffalo for Holiday Touchdown: A Bills Love Story — clear eyes, full Bills, can't lose.ABOUT HOLIDAY TOUCHDOWN: A BILLS LOVE STORYSparks fly between two lifelong Buffalo Bills fans as they try to discover the identity of a mysterious Christmastime gift giver.AIR DATE & NETWORK FOR HOLIDAY TOUCHDOWN: A BILLS LOVE STORYNovember 23 2025 | Hallmark ChannelCAST & CREW OF HOLIDAY TOUCHDOWN: A BILLS LOVE STORYHolland Roden as Morgan QuinnMatthew Daddario as Gabe DeLucaJoe Pantoliano as Uncle Tommy Caroline Aaron as Ricki DeLucaPatti Murin as CathyTracy Pollan Steve Schirripa BRAN'S HOLIDAY TOUCHDOWN: A BILLS LOVE STORY SYNOPSISMorgan is on a date during a Bills game — like, a total moron. She can't stop watching the game, her date isn't having it, and they leave. But at least now she can enjoy the game while sipping a drink made by Andrew Walker.The next day, she's with her family, the Quinns, who are hanging out with their best friends and next-door neighbors, the DeLucas family. Morgan lights up when Gabe shows up. They've been best friends forever, but Gabe has secretly been in love with her all along. With both of them single, maybe now's the time to finally shoot his shot.They go to snag a Christmas tree — at the same lot where Tyler Hynes and Hunter King are inexplicably picking out a tree. And, of course, the magical Santa tree is there too.When they get back home, they find an envelope addressed to Uncle Tommy. Inside is a Christmas ornament. He explains that someone has been sending gifts like this for 55 years — starting as groceries and cash when their family was struggling during his draft into the war, and evolving into ornaments every year. It's a mystery who the giver is.Morgan and Gabe decide to track down the mystery giver — harder than they expected. After a day together and seeing her in her element at the hospital, Gabe tries to confess his feelings but gets distracted by the Christmas light display at his house turning on.They ask Uncle Tommy to show them more ornaments, and on the bottom of one, they spot a store name. They track down receipts from the '70s and start combing through them. Eventually, they get a lead — though the giver's name isn't visible yet.It's obvious to everyone else that Gabe is in love with Morgan, but he can't bring himself to say it.Finally, they track down the mystery giver: Mia, a childhood friend of Tommy's who's secretly been in love with him all these years. Feeling a kinship with her situation, Gabe insists she tell Tommy. Mia resists, but Gabe won't let it go.Morgan confronts Gabe: “What's up with you?” He blurts, “I LOVE YOU, OKAY?!” She walks away to process it.It's time for the big Christmas game, and Gabe is nowhere to be found. Turns out he orchestrated Mia's daughter to be the “troop shoutout of the day,” and gets Tommy to publicly thank Mia. He finally tells her he's always loved her, and they kissssss.Everyone cheers — including Morgan, who can't believe everything Gabe did to make it happen. Her sister goes into labor, so they can't take their traditional family photo. Luckily, Gabe pulls some strings again, getting them back into the stadium to play catch with Bills legends and take their pictures. Morgan thanks Gabe with a big ol' kiss.Merry Christmas!

While Hallmark is out main squeeze, I wanted to give you a sense of what my Christmas taste looks like outside of Hallmark.

Onze vaste luisteraars hebben het al vaker voorbij horen komen; A24. Hoogste tijd dus om deze filmstudio eens uit te lichten.We beginnen zoals elke aflevering met de tips van deze maand. Jeffrey zag de Nederlandse comedy 'Straf', een film van de makers van MasterMovies. Feeling old yet? Erwin zag deze maand de film 'Bugonia' van maker Yorgos Lanthimos en diens muse Emma Stone. Is dit de volgende hit na hun eerdere samenwerking in 'Poor Things'?We hebben het in deze aflevering dus over filmstudio A24. Misschien gaat er niet meteen een belletje rinkelen, maar het kan haast niet anders dan dat je het logo wel eens voorbij hebt zien komen. De filmstudio is verantwoordelijk voor interessante projecten zoals 'Hereditary' en 'Moonlight'. Maar zoals elke (kleine) filmstudio lijkt het erop dat eerdere beloftes over boord worden gegooid door de welbekende dollartekens. Jeffrey zag voor dit thema de film 'White Noise' op Netflix. Deze eigenzinnige film met o.a. Adam Driver is niet de bekendste titel die A24 heeft uitgebracht, en dat is na het zien van deze film niet heel gek. Het is zo'n vreemde film dat zowel Jeffrey als Erwin eraan twijfelden of zij wel het IQ hebben voor deze film. Erwin zag de prachtige film 'The Whale' op PrimeVideo (hij is ook te zien op Videoland). Deze film betekende de comeback van Brendan Fraser en leverde hem een dik verdiende Oscar  op voor beste mannelijke hoofdrol. Maar had in deze productie niet nog iemand een Oscar moeten krijgen?We kijken vooruit naar wat komen gaat. Jeffrey heeft voor de komende maand nog een A24 productie waar hij erg naar uitkijkt; 'The Smashing Machine'. Een waargebeurd drama met Dwayne Johnson. En hoe kan het ook anders; Erwin kijkt het hele jaar al uit naar deze film en eindelijk is het dan zover...'Wicked: For Good' gaat in november in premiere! Erwin kijkt ontzettend uit naar de volgende aflevering, maar of dit voor Jeffrey ook geldt...het thema voor de volgende aflevering is 'Hallmark Christmas Movies'. Jeffrey gaat kijken naar 'A Christmas Prince' op Netflix, Erwin gaat 'Once Upon A Christmas Miracle' zien op PrimeVideo. Als we dan nog niet in de feestdagen stemming gaan komen...

It's officially Countdown to Cultmas! Make yourself a falalatte and keep your expectations for plot continuity ho-ho-low because this week, Chelsea, Reese, and Amanda are uniting for a guffaw-worthy 'sode on the escapist seasonal "cult" that is Hallmark Christmas Movies. These cheesy made-for-TV treats make look utterly innocent on the outside, but when you unpack the extreme parasocial idol worship of Hallmark's recurring stars, its tent revival-esque conventions, nostalgic-to-a-fault themes, and problematic practices that have lead to major legal trouble, that egg nog starts to taste a little more like Kool-Aid (can we say that?). Tune in for lols and analysis as your hosts attempt to figure out if this jingle-jangly franchise is high-key sinister, or if we're just being dramatic.
