On this edition of The Cafe we meet families navigating the bumps and turns of the holidays in today's world. "Christmas with the Singhs," finds a newly engaged couple from two different cultures encountering the fun and friction of blending their families together. In the first two episodes of the eight-part series, "Holidazed," we meet seven families of Oak Harbor, Oregon who will all discover a new meaning of Christmas. We've got extra seating available in this edition of The Hallmark Cafe.

We take The Cafe on the road on this edition with the fast pace and fun of, "Jingle Bell Run." Ashley Williams and Andrew Walker do all the hard work as they compete on a reality show for big money and possibly big love. For dessert, we find "A Reason For the Season" for Taylor Cole and Kevin McGarry. This Hallmark Mysteries entry finds the two connecting over an old mystery that begins one snowy Christmas Eve in 1989. Join us for all the holiday magic on this edition of The Hallmark Cafe!

At The Hallmark Cafe we are passionate about the movies we love. On this episode, we open up about how we choose the movies for our menu and why some movies don't make the menu. Then we serve up our main course, "Tis the Season to Be Irish" which charmed us and touched our hearts as only a Hallmark movie can do. We finish up by perusing the dessert tray for a few comments on the Hallmark Plus continuing series, "Mistletoe Murders" and the reality fun of "Finding Mr. Christmas." It's a lively discussion around the table on this edition of The Hallmark Cafe!

This time in The Cafe we take a more serious look at the holidays with our main course, "This Time Each Year." Alison Sweeney and Niall Matter take us to a deeper level in this touching family drama aided by an outstanding supporting cast and expertly directed by Yan-Kay Crystal Lowe. We follow up our main course with the fun and games of, "'Twas the Date Before Christmas." Amy Groening and Robert Buckley provide the sparks in this high energy ensemble outing directed by Bradley Walsh. Grab a seat and put your hot chocolate order in!

We welcome you back to The Cafe for our first two Christmas movies of 2024 to make the menu. "The Christmas Charade" is a smart and funny modern send up of an old fashioned caper movie with Corey Sevier and Rachel Skarsten having a blast catching the crooks. For dessert, we switch things over to Hallmark Plus for "Mistletoe Murders." In this first of six episodes, we meet a shop owner with a mysterious past, played by Sarah Drew, who gets caught up in a mystery that puts her right in the middle of the investigation. Your yuletide table is ready here at The Hallmark Cafe!
