Erika is back just in time for the final match-up of the season - and is teeming with stories of mishaps and maladies from her very special Disney Family Vacation. Then, after a whirlwind of Kwanzaa and latkas and Lisa Loeb, a 2022 Hallmark bracket winner is crowned! In a holiday season full of big swings and surprisingly great movies - the eliminations are a struggle to the bitter end. Whatta year!

Dory and Mel are joined by their friend Lisa to chat about The Most Colorful Time of the Year and The Holiday Sitter, our second to last matchup of the season. Topics discussed in this eclectic episode include Twitter drama, color blindness, chimney mishaps, Jonathan Bennett’s mustache, diversity and inclusion on Hallmark, online dating profiles, Bigfoot, Hallmark’s 2007 Pandemic miniseries, and more. Lots of opinions in this one. Don’t cancel us!

Week 6 is in the books! This episode’s matchup is A Big Fat Family Christmas vs. Undercover Holiday, and Dory and Mel hold down the fort while Erika is away on her own Big Fat Family Christmas vacation. We also discuss the hair bows in A Fabled Holiday, Reese Witherspoon’s 2014 movie The Good Lie, Harry & Meghan’s Netflix docuseries, and more.

Erika is back and ready to take on our fifth Hallmark movie bracket match-up, A Royal Corgi Christmas versus A Holiday Spectacular! We've got stubby corgi legs going up against Rockette high kicks, family drama, deli dreamboats and the most evil dog handler in all the land. Sit back and join the ladies as they spiral over 1950s historical inaccuracies and then plan an elaborate Dollywood vacation. Because it all makes sense.

While Erika is off celebrating an Ohio Thanksgiving, fellow Hallmark-enthusiast Lisa from the Y'all, This Book podcast joins Dory and Mel to break down the MOST! DIFFICULT! MATCH-UP! OF THE SEASON! (So far). Inventing the Christmas Prince takes on Three Wise Men & a Baby, pitting Tamera Mowry-Housley and a horse-drawn carriage against a trifecta of charming Hallmark all-stars with jokes and ballet moves to spare. Who could possibly choose between these two gems?!

It’s official—Lindsay Lohan is back, baby! In this episode, Dory, Mel, and Erika discuss Lindsay’s new holiday movie, Falling for Christmas, our first-ever bracket entry from Netflix! But can LL’s star power help Falling for Christmas knock off Hallmark’s Christmas at the Golden Dragon? The answer might surprise you.

Battling in week two on the holiday movie bracket is Lights, Camera, Christmas! and All Saints Christmas.  While getting into the holiday spirit, the ladies talk New Orleans vibes, Hollywood movie star winks and butt deodorant?! Whaaa?!  Plus, a glowing recommendation on a non bracket flick will have you running to your TV to tune in.

The first bracket match-up of the season is here, where an unexpected Full House alum goes head to head with an American (??) Will Kemp and the magic of London at Christmas. Join us as we discuss the pros and cons (and cons and cons) of a sequel without the Original Recipe romance, and the glory that is Reshma Shetty's green jumpsuit. Plus a short dive into the other premieres of the weekend and a long sidebar into whimsical mailboxes and L.L. Bean culture. That's Garland for you! I guess?

We’re back, baby! In this episode, Dory, Mel, and Erika unveil the 2022 All The Feels Holiday Movie Bracket. Which Hallmark movies will be competing for the top spot? Will Lifetime be back on the bracket after a disappointing showing last year? Is a new network coming for Hallmark’s crown? We have so much to discuss, so pour yourself a cup of hot cocoa, sit back, relax, and join us as we start the holiday season off right.

The final bracket match-up of the season is here and a true Hallmark expert is in the house! Joining the ladies is Bubbly Sesh host Shawl and we have a Dickens! of a time choosing between the sizzling Polaha-D'Orsay chemistry in "A Dickens of a Holiday!" and the charismatic party planning/Queen of Dory's heart Ashley Williams in "Sister Swap: Christmas in the City". Then, in a rapid fire elimination round, Dory, Mel, and Erika crown a 2021 winner. It's a bloodbath, folks.
