So, that's the list! Have you checked it twice?

 

What do you think?

 

Do you think Santa would say, "It's Nice." ?

 

There are a few changes... different movie titles, etc. Plus, the Signed, Sealed, Delivered Christmas Movie was not mentioned. So, that leaves me wondering... What will they do with it? I know it was already filmed and ready to go, so I am quite puzzled. Sounds like a good mystery for the POstables to solve! (Update below image)

 

Let's "Countdown to Christmas"

Together and with Hallmark!

 

 

UPDATE: The Movie: Signed, Sealed, Delivered For Christmas will premiere on the newly branded Hallmark Movies & Mysteries Channel. Click here for more details.
