Synopsis

Christmas: a time for magic.

A time for the traditions we cherish.

A time to watch as many original TV movies as a human being can possibly endure.

But now with The Holiday Channel Christmas Movie Wonderthon, you can enjoy the sugar rush of six Christmas movies all at once!

Welcome to Hopewood Falls, Vermont, where singles in adorable sweaters converge to look for love.

Can disguises help royalty and/or movie stars find the down-to-earth connections they crave?

Will evil city slickers destroy charming inns and/or Christmas tree farms?

Isn’t it a little creepy for a meet-cute to depend on one person being in a coma?

Grab a hot chocolate and your favorite wise single friend to find out in this wildly entertaining parody of holiday rom-coms.
