We’re kicking off the 2026 season with a double feature about parents’ love lives, and the kids are not okay. Neither is Will, our resident Scrooge, but let's see if we can win him over. 

First up, Great American Family's A Second Chance Christmas, where Candace Cameron Bure and Jonathan Scarfe play exes snowed in at their family cabin. Then we head to Hallmark’s Countdown to Christmas opener ’Tis the Season for Setups where a party planner single mom clashes with an (oddly tall) snowboarder, then teams up with him to set up their parents (shout out, Barbara Niven!)

Plus: rankings, red flags, and real talk from an industry perspective.

New to the feed? Our original Christmas audio rom com series, Build a Prince, is waiting for you. Start at Part 1.
