CBS officially announced back in April they would be premiering three new original holiday movies to air in December 2022. One of those movies was "Fit for Christmas." At the time, we knew Amanda Kloots (host of The Talk) would star in the movie, but recently, it was revealed her co-star is one of Hallmark's favorite stars, Paul Greene (When Calls the Heart, My Favorite Wedding, A Christmas Detour).
"Fit for Christmas" storyline via CBS:
"THE TALK's Amanda Kloots will star in and executive produce FIT FOR CHRISTMAS from writer and executive producer Anna White ("Christmas Wonderland"), the tale of Audrey, an enthusiastic Christmas-obsessed fitness instructor at a beloved, financially beleaguered community center in quaint Mistletoe, Mont., who begins a holiday romance with a charming, mysterious businessman, complicating his plans to turn the center into a more financially profitable resort property. The movie will be produced by Brad Krevoy's Motion Picture Corporation of America."
Dear Santa, documentary
about the United States Postal Service's
"Operation Santa" program,
to be made into new holiday docuseries for ABC Television
According to a press release via businesswire.com: "The forthcoming six-episode Series will take audiences on an inspiring holiday journey as children across America write letters to Santa and kind-hearted “elves” step up in unexpected ways to make their Christmas wishes come true. Creating a Series based upon the documentary - which maintains an impressive 89% Fresh Rating on “Rotten Tomatoes” - was a hoped-for next step for the filmmakers. “During pre-production on the movie, we came across so many extraordinary letters, that it made choosing which to feature, pretty challenging. With Santa getting new requests every year and with new groups of elves ready to adopt them, we knew Dear Santa could make for an exceptional docuseries,” said Nachman.
Shot in December 2021 in major cities and small towns all across the nation, the Series will feature a diverse array of stories. Giving viewers unprecedented access into the United States Postal Service’s (“USPS”) Operation Santa program, each episode spotlights the good, everyday people and the thousands of dedicated postal employees who make Christmas magic happen from Coast-to-Coast. “Operation Santa is a national endeavor, but its success is truly thanks to the participation of the many thousands of selfless individuals and postal workers who unite in support of their fellow citizens year after year. As an organization that serves and exists for all Americans, it was important to USPS that the Series feature a breadth of local stories from around the country,” said Karpenko, Executive Director of Marketing, USPS.
The Series will air in December across ABC’s local networks..."
