In 2017, the Hallmark Channel premiered
*21 COUNTDOWN to CHRISTMAS MOVIES-
including the Hallmark Hall of Fame Production!*
including the Hallmark Hall of Fame Production!*
With TWENTY ONE films, this was the Hallmark Channel's biggest NEW Christmas Movie offering, yet, with stars including: Trevor Donovan, Taylor Cole, Lacey Chabert, Brooke D'Orsay, Marc Blucas, Alexa and Carlos Penavega, Danica McKellar, Kimberly Williams-Paisley, Dermot Mulroney, Candace Cameron Bure, Alison Sweeney, Jordan Bridges, Erin Krakow, Pascale Hutton, Kavan Smith, Jessy Schram, Sam Page, and more!
Beyond the actors and actresses, the magnificent Stories in each film were all Stars, as well..., but which ones Shined the Brightest?
The movie choices are: Marry Me at Christmas, Christmas Festival of Ice, Miss Christmas, The Sweetest Christmas, Enchanted Christmas, Coming Home for Christmas, A Gift to Remember, With Love, Christmas, The Mistletoe Inn, Finding Santa, The Christmas Train (Hallmark Hall of Fame), Switched for Christmas, Christmas in Evergreen, Christmas at Holly Lodge, The Christmas Cottage, Sharing Christmas, Christmas Next Door, Christmas Connection, Christmas Getaway, When Calls the Heart: The Christmas Wishing Tree, A Royal New Year's Eve. You may also include the Summer Christmas movie premiere of "The Christmas Cure." (which actually makes the total number - 22!)
Typically, we give our take on these movies immediately following each holiday/season, but with the abundance of Christmas movies we were given last year, I know it took many of us quite a while to catch up! So... I decided to wait until after Christmas in July when we could all get a refreshing look at these movies and then share which ones we enjoyed best.
Please share "YOUR TAKE" on this block of Hallmark Channel CHRISTMAS TV movies in comments below by answering these Two Questions...
(You may choose MORE THAN ONE for both questions!)
1. Which "CHRISTMAS" Movie did you like/love the most?
2. Which "CHRISTMAS" Movie Poster (above) do you like best?
Looking forward to hearing all your responses! Thank you, in advance, to everyone who shares below!
Blessings, Net
I love the Holly Lodge Movie.
ReplyDelete1. Out of the selections above, and because of my lifelong love with trains, I still adore the Christmas Train. It was unique because it was a different setting than most of the movies. I'll definitely be adding it to my collection on DVD.
ReplyDelete2. For the poster, I love the backdrop of Christmas in Evergreen. The mountains, trees, cabins, all of it. Definitely would love a true white Christmas like that.
Blessings to all!
For some reason I just love Coming Home for Christmas. Maybe it's the grandeur of the house but it's becoming a favorite for me. The Sweetest Christmas is my favorite poster!!! Merry Christmas!!!
ReplyDelete1 Miss Christmas and Christmas Connection for best movie.
ReplyDelete2 Switched for Christmas and Christmas Next Door for best poster.

I had to give this one some thought. Typically for Spring, June weddings, or Summer nights- I just know, but Christmas is much harder. I hope it's okay if I pick 3 for each.
ReplyDelete1) MOVIE- MARRY ME AT CHRISTMAS, MISS CHRISTMAS, CHRISTMAS NEXT DOOR
2) POSTER- CHRISTMAS IN EVERGREEN, CHRISTMAS NEXT DOOR, ROYAL NEW YEARS EVE
1) Christmas Getaway-I felt like it was a cute concept, and the 2 leads were fantastic together.
ReplyDeletethe Runners up are: Marry Me At Christmas, Mistletoe Inn and With Love, Christmas.
2) Favorite Poster is With Love, Christmas and Christmas Getaway.
Sweet friend, I wanted to thank you for the many kind comments on my blog. Reading your words this morning were such a blessing to my heart. You are a gem!
ReplyDeleteI hope you and yours have a most wonderful August! Hugs!

Marry Me At Christmas -- looks of fun, romantic and nice scenery.
ReplyDeleteThe Christmas Train for both!
ReplyDeletejust put me down for ALL the movies. This was HALLMARKS BEST EVER CHRISTMAS MOVIES.
ReplyDeleteDefinitely the best movies were Miss Christmas and Christmas Connection. Both heart warming and most Christmas feel.
ReplyDeleteBest poster- Marry me at Christmas
1) I LOVED The Christmas Train, and thoroughly enjoyed The Mistletoe Inn, A Gift to Remember, Switched for Christmas, Christmas Connection, and Miss Christmas.
ReplyDelete2) I think all of them are just great except The Christmas Train.
Oh my gosh, it’s so tough to decide. I enjoyed so many of them this year. If I had to narrow it down though, my top 3 would be Christmas Gettaway, A Gift to Remember and Finding Santa. I was actually surprised at how much I liked these three as they weren’t the ones I was looking forward to watching the most. - Melissa

Favorite Movie...tied...Miss Christmas and Christmas in Evergreen.
ReplyDeleteFavorite Poster...Christmmas in Evergreen
My favorite was Christmasat Evergreen - Loved it the best!!!!
ReplyDeleteMy faves were Coming Home for Christmas, A Gift for Christmas, Switched for Christmas, and Christmas Getaway.
ReplyDeleteMy fave poster is Christmas Getaway.
My picks would have to be Miss Christmas & Christmas Next Door...love the mystery behind the Christmas decorations appearing in the yard & his mother...so funny!!! Also, love how in Miss Christmas they kept the tree where it was and brought Christmas to it and life back to everyone!
ReplyDeleteAs for posters...Miss Christmas, Christmas Next Door and Christmas in Evergreen...the love snow in the background!
Oh my gosh, Net, I could name seven right off the bat but one stood out a little more for me. With Love, Christmas was my favorite with Emilie and Aaron who I think were perfectly paired. I loved the "pitch" they gave and the "You've Got Mail" synopsis going on. I really enjoyed this one and the poster, too!!
ReplyDeleteA Gift to Remember and Christmas Getaway! So hope these two come out on DVD.
ReplyDeleteMy favorite movie and favorite poster is Christmas Getaway
ReplyDeleteMy favorite doesn't seem to be listed--Home for Christmas Day with Catherine Bell and Victor Webster. Just loved it. Or was it on HMM?
ReplyDeleteYes, your right, Barbara, "Home for Christmas Day" did premiere on Hallmark Movies & Mysteries, it was their Summer premiere Christmas in July movie. I am so glad you mentioned it, though... what a wonderful tribute it is to our military.
DeleteChristmas in Evergreen is my answer to both questions!
ReplyDeleteBecky F.
I guess I am the first to say that my favorite this past season was A Christmas Cure. It reminds me of our calling to help others emotionally and spiritually whenever we can. A close second is Christmas in Evergreen, which is my vote for the best poster.
ReplyDeleteIt's Christmas Next Door for movie & poster for me! Jesse and Fiona are just too cute for words! 🏡🏡⛄️🎻🎶🎄
ReplyDeletexoxo, Em
Probably watched Miss Christmas and With Love, Christmas the most- so I'll pick those two for best movie.
ReplyDeleteFor poster- its With Love, Christmas again or Christmas in Evergreen, but I wish I could see the red truck better.
Miss Christmas for both!
ReplyDeleteChristmas at Holly Lodge & Christmas Connection
ReplyDeleteMy favorite movies were: "Coming Home For Christmas" and "Switched for Christmas".
ReplyDeleteFavorite poster: "Christmas in Evergreen" I do think its that lovely backdrop.
Thanks so so much for coming by for a visit.
ReplyDeleteI didn't watch any of these great movies...hope to see some during Christmas season of 2018.
I CANNOT wait for Christmas this year! My kids are at such fun ages for all of the holidays, and it's all going to be so so exciting!

Like others, I have many favorites. Overall, I think With Love, Christmas.

ReplyDeletePoster / royal new years eve
I loved quite a lot of the movies last year. My favorites were Christmas Next Door and Enchanted Christmas!
ReplyDeleteMy favorite poster is Christmas Next Door and Christmas in Evergreen. Thanks Net for continuing to do this. I love reading everyone's answers.
My absolute favorites (tied) were Christmas Cottage and Christmas Getaway. Great storylines and chemistry!
ReplyDeleteMiss Christmas is my pick for both questions! It's THE most perfect Christmas movie last year for me personally with a unique story line, great chemistry, amazing actors, and just wonderful all around. I have watched it over and over for numerous times!
ReplyDeleteThe rest of them weren't quite memorable, but I did like Christmas in Evergreen, A Gift to Remember, and With Love Christmas.
Switched fior Christmas, Christmas at Holly Lodge, & Christmas Connection
ReplyDeleteMine was Bramble House Christmas, which wasn't on the list (maybe HM&M). Mistletoe Inn was my favorite on your list.
ReplyDeleteI like the Christmas Getaway poster.
Steve, Those are wonderful Christmas movie choices! You are correct, "A Bramble House Christmas" was a HMM premiere, and it was well loved by many! See *here*.
DeleteThank you for sharing your Christmas movie favorites!
Blessings, Net
there were so many wonderful movies to choose from as usual from Hallmark but I choose Marry Me At Christmas and I love Christmas Getaway poster as it makes me think of Christmas snow globes. Thank you Net for this wonderful blog!! God bless.
ReplyDeleteI loved so many of them, and like all the rest of them, so it's really difficult to pick!
ReplyDeleteBut really enjoyed With love, Christmas, Christmas getaway and Coming home for Christmas! Absolutely loved them! As for poster - Christmas getaway, it is heartwarming and classic!
My favorite Hallmark Christmas movie on this list is Coming home for Christmas and The Christmas Train.
