My *Quick* Take:Doesn't this look fantastic!?!?! I just want to cozy in right now and see ALL the NEW Christmas Movies we can't wait to see!!! I love that Candace Cameron Bure, who is a very popular favorite at Hallmark each Christmas, is hosting this special on the Hallmark Channel! It's also a delight to see her alongside her Full House / Fuller House cast and dear friends, Lori Loughlin and Jodie Sweetin. Seeing the three of them together... they are instantly in my mind... Aunt Becky, DJ, and Stephanie!!! So Sweet! I can't wait to hear all about each of their movies and ALL the 21 NEW Christmas movies premiering this year on the Hallmark Channel!
Plus, I love that Happy the Dog is stopping by, too! How fun that he is also starring with Candace in her Christmas movie, "Switched For Christmas!"
What a wonderful Christmas movie season it is looking to be once again for Hallmark - across both Networks! 34 Movies in total, if you're also counting Hallmark Movies & Mysteries!!!
I absolutely LOVE all the Christmas Movie news and I can't wait to catch this special Hallmark Channel Christmas Preview hour and take in all the joy & excitement soon coming our way!!!
