Let’s be honest with one another, shall we? The autumn/Halloween season is great and all, but it’s a placeholder season — at best. As far as I’m concerned, there really are only two seasons : summer and Christmas.
Luckily, the good folks at Hallmark seem to feel the exact same way . So if you, like me, are looking to make your life a little more merry and bright, have a look below at Hallmark’s 2022 Christmas movie lineup .
Hallmark’s Countdown to Christmas officially begins on October 21st.

That might seem a bit early to be getting your holly jollies off, but keep in mind that Hallmark’s “Countdown to Christmas” movie lineup consists of 40 different holiday flicks.
You can also expect to see a happy host of your favorite yuletide stars making their merry return to the little/big screen.

Network favorites such as Alison Sweeney, Holly Robinson Peete, Jodie Sweetin, Jonathan Bennett, Luke Macfarlane, and Tamera Mowry-Housley are all slated to star in brand-new holiday romances.
This season also marks a record-setting achievement for Hallmark regular, Lacey Chabert.

Lacey first made a name for herself with appearances in films like Mean Girls and Not Another Teen Movie . This holiday season, she is set to star in her 12th Hallmark feature film.
So without further ado, let’s dig in and see what Hallmark has in store for us all this Christmas season!

The countdown begins with 2022’s Noel Next Door . It stars Natalie Hall as Noel, who gets into a proverbial war of words with her next-door neighbor, whom she feels is trying to ruin Christmas!
On Saturday, October 22nd, be sure to cozy up with ‘We Wish You A Married Christmas’.

Marisol Nichols and Kristoffer Polaha play a married couple who can’t quite connect during the holiday season. After retreating to a cozy Vermont town to recharge their marriage, the couple endures an unexpected accident that puts them on a road to recovery.
Rounding out the weekend is ‘A Kismet Christmas’.

When Sarah, a children’s book author, returns home for Christmas, she reconnects with her family as well as her former teenage flame. Later on, she discovers that a discarded family legend might actually be coming true!
Skipping ahead to October 28th weekend, a familiar face makes her 2022 Hallmark debut!

Full/Fuller House star, Jodie Sweetin, will take on the lead role in A Cozy Christmas Inn. Also premiering that weekend is Jolly Good Christmas starring Reshma Shetty, and Ghosts of Christmas Always — led by Kim Matula.
Former ‘Days Of Our Lives’ star, Allison Sweeney, will star in ‘A Magical Christmas Village’ — premiering on Nov. 4th.

Be sure to watch Lights, Camera, Christmas! starring Kimberley Sustad and John Brotherton, as well as All Saints Christmas with Ledisi and Roger Cross.
This Remembrance Day will mark the release of ‘In Merry Measure’.

Broadway star Patti Murin is set to portray a pop star named Darcy, who’s returning home for Christmas. In an unexpected turn of events, she finds herself coaching her old high school choir alongside her longtime rival, Adam.
