The 2026 Hallmark Countdown to Christmas Begins!

We continue our journey through the 2026 Countdown to Christmas offerings with two different takes on the holidays. A Season of Promises is packed with both tears and laughs in what instantly has become our favorite holiday movie of the years so far. This one is a must see. The mood is lighter in Holiday Unplugged with a family taking a break from their electronic devices for Christmas. Join at the table to choose your favorite!

It's a three course feast in The Hallmark Cafe this week! We love a movie with a sweet Christmas dinner story and Who's Coming For Dinner? is just that. A Danish Christmas also has some very edible Christmas treats plus beautiful Copenhagen all decked out for the holidays. Adopting St. Nick is a heartwarming and fun take on Father Christmas that we simply couldn't resist. Join us at the table, we've got plenty of room!.

We continue serving up selections from the 2026 Hallmark Countdown to Christmas calendar with two movies that we think go together perfectly. "Forgotten Holiday" teams Daniel Lissing with Janel Parrish in a movie where a couple gets a second chance to find love. "What if Christmas" orchestrates a new beginning for Lori Loughlin and Tom Cavanagh where a shift of time brings the best gift of all. Your table is always ready in The Hallmark Cafe!

We begin this year's Countdown to Christmas with the first three movies of the season: 'Tis the Season for Setups, Holiday Touchdown: A Bears Love Story and, Mr. & Mrs. Christmas. Join us, there's plenty of room at our holiday table!

We round out this years fall movies with a quick look at Pumpkin Regatta Romance, A Knight to Remember, and The Spirit of Halloween. Which one of these was your favorite?

We are on Vancouver Island continuing our visit to British Columbia with our preview of the 2026 Countdown to Christmas movies. There’s a little bit of something for everyone in this year’s lineup. Join us at the table for all the details!

We are on location in beautiful Fort Langley, British Columbia to take a look at two movies recently made in this Hallmark friendly town. "Murder Takes the Stage" marks the return of Lori Loughlin and the original cast to the fan favorite series, Garage Sale Mysteries. "Falling into Place" is a cozy romance in the classic Hallmark style which was also enhanced by Fort Langley's one of a kind locations. As a bonus, catch the video version of this episode on our You Tube Channel with our exclusive location footage !youtube.com/@thehallmarkcafe.

We wrap up our impressions of the mini-series, "Paris is Always a Good Idea" with a combined look at episodes five and six. This series should be on everyone's menu. Then we join Ashley Williams and Niall Matter for some fun with Shakespeare in "Much About Love." Your table is ready for travel, romance, and laughs here at The Hallmark Cafe!

Chelsea returns to Paris where Jason Knightly is waiting for her to make their all important presentation. But will this unlikely collaboration lead to more in this appropriately titled episode, "Knightly." We then head down under where Daniel Lissing and Rhiannon Fish embark on an unexpected cruise to love in "Aussie at Heart." Your table is always ready here at The Hallmark Cafe!

We're back with a main course and a dessert on this edition of The Hallmark Cafe. Kimberley Sustad and Jesse Metcalfe bring on the summer fun with the music turned up high in "Absolutely Devoted to You." We then head back to Paris for dessert with another episode of "Paris is Always a Good Idea" where we find Lacey Chabert still visiting her past in search of her future.
