AIR DATE & NETWORK FOR: TWELVE DATES 'TIL CHRISTMAS (EPISODE 5 & EPISODE 6)December 19, 2025 | Hallmark Mystery Channel CAST & CREW OF: TWELVE DATES 'TIL CHRISTMAS (EPISODE 5 & EPISODE 6)Mae Whitman as KateJulian Morris as CallumJane Seymour as EvelynNathaniel Parker as MacBRAN’S TWELVE DATES 'TIL CHRISTMAS (EPISODE 5 & EPISODE 6) SYNOPSISKate is on a train, replaying the kiss in her head — and Cal is doing the exact same thing when Oliver shows up. Oliver wants to clear the air after Dates & Mates, reassuring Cal that telling the truth was the right thing to do… a comment that clearly hits deeper than intended. On the train, Kate’s mom sits down across from her and gently asks what’s going on. Kate admits she kissed Cal. Her mom offers unexpected advice: find a third man — perspective is everything. Kate takes the advice and goes on a date with Charlie, an American. But things get complicated fast when Kate bumps into Richard, who’s out on yet another date. Awkward all around. Kate later confronts Cal for running away after the kiss and leaving her alone to process everything. Wanting to make things right, Laura and Cal work with the event organizer to set up a special do-over for Date 11. Unfortunately, Richard beats Cal to the punch, sending a car to pick Kate up and whisk her away for a carefully planned romantic night. Meanwhile, Delilah continues aggressively pursuing Mac. Determined to clear things up, Mac goes to Evelyn to confess his feelings — and they kiss. He’s ecstatic… until he heads to the bathroom, gives himself a pep talk, and suddenly believes he’s having a heart attack. Back on Richard’s date, Kate is making out with him when Cal calls — three times. She finally answers and rushes to the hospital, where she learns her dad hasn’t had a heart attack after all, but a panic attack. When she returns home, she discovers her mom has moved out. Soon after, Kate learns her mom bought a nearby house. Her mom apologizes for not being present, tells Kate she’s too talented to be working for someone else, and asks her to decorate the new house. She promises she’s ready to change and will be there whenever Kate is ready. Kate goes to tell Cal — but he’s clearly upset. He explains that he planned the do-over date. Kate insists she didn’t know. They argue, and Cal leaves, telling her he doesn’t know what she wants but hopes she finds it. Kate quietly replies, “Maybe I already have.” Laura tries to convince Kate to fight for Cal, but Kate believes Richard is the right choice. Evelyn comes to check on Mac, and the two of them end up kissing again. While out with Richard, Kate learns he’s been heavily flirting with other women throughout the dating experiment. When she confronts him, he explains they were both allowed to date — but in the end, he chose her. As they slow dance, Richard admits he chose her because it made for a good story. That’s the final straw. Kate wishes him a Merry Christmas and walks away. Kate finds her dad, breaks down in his arms, and cries. He tells her he now understands his panic attacks and knows how to manage them. He reassures her that he has Evelyn — Kate doesn’t need to worry about him anymore. She can focus on herself. Kate reconnects with her mom, grateful that she’ll finally be around, and the family spends Christmas together. Later, Kate meets Laura. Traditionally, she’d spend Christmas night with Laura and Cal — but Cal doesn’t show. Kate gives Laura a gift she had taken from Cal’s place: a framed picture of a drawing Kate made years ago. Realizing what she truly wants, Kate runs to Cal. She tells him she wants him. Cal steps outside, turns on the lights, and they share a big, emotional kiss. Christmas is finally complete — together.

    It’s Christmas Eve, and we’ve reached the final Hallmark Christmas movie of the year. We’re closing out the season with The Christmas Baby. ABOUT THE CHRISTMAS BABYA couple receives a baby boy before Christmas with a note meant for them. While temporarily caring for him during the holiday rush, they navigate their relationship, careers, and the foster-to-adopt process. AIR DATE & NETWORK FOR THE CHRISTMAS BABYDecember 21 2025 | Hallmark Channel CAST & CREW OF THE CHRISTMAS BABYKatherine Barrell as KellyAli Liebert as ErinBRAN’S THE CHRISTMAS BABY SYNOPSISErin is awakened early by the sound of her wife, Kelly, working on Christmas decorations in the living room. Kelly is designing elaborate Christmas set pieces for the theater, and she’s so consumed by the project that they haven’t even decorated their own house yet. That night, Kelly is set to receive an award at a theater ceremony. Erin is running late because she’s finishing up at work. While getting changed at home, she hears someone enter the house. When she goes to check, she doesn’t find a person — just a baby. Erin tries to track down the baby’s parent, but no one is around. In the stroller, she finds a note addressed to Erin and Kelly, asking them to take care of a baby named Nicolas. The note says they’re sorry and that they tried. Unsure what to do, Erin brings Nicolas with her to the event, arriving just in time to see Kelly win her award. Afterward, Kelly insists they call the authorities, which they do. Betty from DSS arrives to take Nicolas into care, but Erin immediately feels uneasy. The note clearly suggests the birth mother wanted Nicolas to be with them. Erin and Kelly talk to Betty, and Nicolas ends up going home with them. The next day, their theater friends come over and help brainstorm who Nicolas’s parent might be. Soon after, both of their mothers arrive — uninvited — to “help.” The moms raise concerns about how Erin and Kelly’s lives aren’t exactly set up for a baby. Erin and Kelly try to adjust, but it’s overwhelming. Kelly starts to doubt they should keep Nicolas and calls Betty to ask about another placement, despite Erin’s reluctance. They argue, then make up the next morning, but Erin is still struggling. Kelly points out that kids aren’t practical — and reminds Erin that before they got married, Erin said she didn’t want children. Erin admits that Nicolas has awakened something in her she didn’t know was there. The next day at work, Kelly mistakenly believes she’s being asked whether she wants to adopt Nicolas — and she says yes. In that moment, she realizes her fear has been keeping her from what she truly wants. The couple gets Nicolas back and begins preparing their home for the official home study. On Christmas Eve, they learn that the birth mother has contacted Betty and wants to meet them. When Erin and Kelly arrive, they’re shocked to discover it’s the barista from the coffee shop they visit every week. She shares her story and formally asks Erin and Kelly to be Nicolas’s parents. They say yes. The movie ends with Erin and Kelly celebrating Christmas with their family — and their new baby boy.

ABOUT A MAKE OR BREAK HOLIDAYA couple hosting Christmas decides to fake their relationship for their families after choosing to separate. Working together for the perfect holiday helps them remember why they fell in love. AIR DATE & NETWORK FOR A MAKE OR BREAK HOLIDAYDecember 20 2025 | Hallmark Channel CAST & CREW OF A MAKE OR BREAK HOLIDAYHunter King as LivEvan Roderick as DanielBRAN’S A MAKE OR BREAK HOLIDAY SYNOPSISThe movie kicks off like a Nutella commercial. Liv is throwing a Christmas party when a guy named Daniel crashes into her, sending eggnog everywhere. Instead of being mad, they hit it off immediately and end the night kissing under a Christmas wreath. From there, they start dating, fall in love, and eventually buy a house together. Cut to the following Christmas: they’re hosting both of their families in the new house. But it quickly becomes clear that things in Loveland are not as perfect as they seem. Liv is extremely stressed, while Daniel’s solution is basically, “You should just put all that stress in a box somewhere.” Shockingly, this does not help. The tension boils over into an argument, and they decide to take a break. The problem? Neither of them can bring themselves to tell their parents. So they agree to pretend everything is fine for the holidays. Once the families arrive, chaos ensues. Liv’s dad is aggressively committed to traditions she hates — including an absolutely unhinged candy game. Daniel’s sister immediately clocks that something is wrong and confronts him. He comes clean to her, just as Liv confides in her brother. Both siblings agree to keep the secret… for now. As they stumble through Christmas together, there are moments where Liv and Daniel remember how much they still love each other — followed by moments that push them even further apart. Their families don’t help. Everyone has opinions about everything, and it’s exhausting. Things finally come to a head when Liv finds the engagement ring Daniel had planned to use. At last, they come clean to the entire family. Realizing they haven’t been giving each other what they actually need, Liv and Daniel choose to recommit to one another. They make up, kiss, and Daniel officially proposes. And, in the true spirit of Christmas miracles, a Gobler Farms turkey is delivered on Christmas morning.

    My Secret Santa

    Alonso & Jacks are here to wrap up the Netflix Christmas season by reviewing the final Netflix Christmas movie of the year, My Secret Santa. ABOUT MY SECRET SANTATaylor disguises as Santa at a resort to fund her daughter's ski lessons. Working with the charming manager Matthew, she finds holiday cheer and a chance at love amidst challenges. AIR DATE & PLATFORM FOR MY SECRET SANTADecember 3 2025 | Netflix CAST & CREW OF MY SECRET SANTAAlexandra Breckenridge as Taylor JacobsonRyan Eggold as Matthew LayneTia Mowry as Natasha BurtonBRAN’S MY SECRET SANTA SYNOPSISThe movie kicks off with a guy and a gal about to rob a joint. He says, “Let me do it, I have a record.” She says, “Let me do it, I can break into the safe.” They both go for it. Cut back two weeks. We see the same gal, Sophia, pickpocket a guy who is being mean to some buskers. We then see that guy from the beginning, Nick, trying to find a new flat, but everything is too expensive. Sophia goes to work at a fancy store called Sterlings — the same store she was planning to rob at the beginning. She hates it when people are mean, so when a customer mistreats an employee, she steals the woman’s dog’s diamond collar. Nick, who works at a cell phone repair shop, watches the Sterlings security cameras and sees her do this — and also notices her stealing some petty cash. But there’s a good reason: her mom is very sick and needs expensive treatment. Nick visits her the next day, asks if she knows where he could find a diamond collar, and hands her a USB before scurrying off. That night, Sophia watches the video — it’s footage of her stealing, along with a message to meet him the next day. She meets him, and he blackmails her into helping him rob the Sterlings security locker. She says no while pickpocketing his locker. Needing the money, she reluctantly agrees to help him in exchange for a cut, since she knows his identity as the guy who installed the security footage and was previously arrested for theft. They successfully break in, only to find that the locker is already empty. They decide to call a truce. The next day at work, Sophia finds out that someone really did steal all the items (she suspects it’s Nick). She also overhears that Sterling keeps $500,000 in cash in his office’s personal safe. She goes to talk to Nick and overhears him having a conversation with his ex about her and their child moving away. He promises Sophia he didn’t rob the store without her. They agree to work together again. Sophia figures out what kind of safe it is and assures Nick she can crack it. But they need a key fob that generates a new code every sixty seconds, which Sterling keeps in his bedroom. Sophia tells Nick they need to find a way to get into Sterling’s bedroom to steal the fob. Nick admits to Sophia that he never actually stole from Sterlings. The owner did it himself for the insurance money. He framed Nick, who took a plea deal to avoid missing his daughter’s life. They consider giving up until they learn that Sterling’s wife — who hates him — will be at a fancy gala. They hatch a plan: get him in, seduce her, and have her bring him back to her place so they can steal the fob. They get all dressed up for the gala, and it works. But back at her place, Sterling’s wife recognizes Nick. They’ve been found out. She offers to give them the fob if they cut her into the deal. They plan a new break-in after the store closes on Christmas Eve. The fob works, but when the door opens, they discover another door requiring Sterling’s DNA. All seems lost — until Sophia uses her own DNA. It turns out Sterling is her father. Her mom worked there, Sterling got her pregnant, then fired her and cut her off completely. They get inside, grab the money, and on their way out, a security guard comes. They hide but are caught when Nick sneezes. They run, but are ultimately captured. Sophia offers to take the fall if Sterling gives her mom her cut, ensuring he can be with his daughter. Before escaping, she kisses Nick. While they’re being chased, Sterling shows up with the police to see what’s been taken. When the locker is opened, all the stolen goods are inside. We learn that Cynthia, Sterling’s wife, told Sophia and Nick she didn’t want a cut of the money — she wanted Sterling arrested to take over the company. She promises to take care of both of them for their help. She also reveals where Sterling had hidden his stolen goods before the insurance claim goes through. Sophia and Nick move the items into the safe, ensuring Sterling is caught for insurance fraud. When the security guard recognizes Sophia, she tells him what she knows, and he lets her go free. Later, Nick and Sophia meet up again and share another kiss, obviously. Watch the show on Youtube - www.deckthehallmark.com/youtube Interested in advertising on the show?
