00:01:22,483 --> 00:01:24,180
like no other.

00:01:24,249 --> 00:01:26,079

A Hometown Holiday.

00:01:34,922 --> 00:01:36,855
[Benjamin] Welcome to The
Hallmark Christmas Experience .
32
00:01:37,824 --> 00:01:40,666
I'm Benjamin Ayres,
and I am so excited to be here
33
00:01:40,734 --> 00:01:42,727
in the heart of Kansas City,
34
00:01:42,863 --> 00:01:44,967
the place where the iconic Hallmark Card Company
35
00:01:45,002 --> 00:01:47,567
began over a century ago.
36
00:01:47,602 --> 00:01:49,135
You know, the Hallmark Christmas Experience
37
00:01:49,170 --> 00:01:51,143
is an annual festival
38
00:01:51,245 --> 00:01:53,574
that's open to everyone during the Christmas season.
39
00:01:53,610 --> 00:01:56,908
Our Hallmark holiday home is an enchanting place.
40
00:01:56,944 --> 00:01:59,747
We have thousands of lights, we have families skating,
41
00:01:59,782 --> 00:02:02,881
friends taking photos, people writing wishes for the season.
42
00:02:03,717 --> 00:02:06,021
Holiday fun and games with my friends,
43
00:02:06,057 --> 00:02:08,090
your favorite Hallmark stars.
44
00:02:08,192 --> 00:02:09,421
I have a gift for you
two right now.
45
00:02:09,523 --> 00:02:11,563
-Okay, thank you.
-Here you go.
46
00:02:11,599 --> 00:02:12,457
Thank you so much.
47
00:02:12,526 --> 00:02:14,462
Merry Christmas,
happy holidays.
48
00:02:14,564 --> 00:02:17,265

49
00:02:17,300 --> 00:02:19,501
Mickey Guyton and Brad Paisley,
50
00:02:19,603 --> 00:02:23,973
and the most epic tree lighting
that you will ever see.
51
00:02:24,042 --> 00:02:26,011
It is a jam-packed celebration
52
00:02:26,080 --> 00:02:28,477
and you won't want to miss
a moment of it.
53
00:02:28,512 --> 00:02:30,611
So with that spirit of celebration in mind,
54
00:02:30,647 --> 00:02:33,017
let's begin with a little fun and kick things off
55
00:02:33,085 --> 00:02:34,786

00:02:56,504 --> 00:02:57,808

00:03:15,457 --> 00:03:17,324

movies.

00:03:19,362 --> 00:03:20,661
So we need our first

[Jonathan] Hockey is correct!
81

that's one point for the stars.

Ezra Morland! Congratulations!

Everyone was here,
it was so packed,
97
00:04:15,489 --> 00:04:19,252
but everyone was happy, and it's
just been an amazing experience.

as family.

Is this your first time at
the Hallmark Experience?
104
00:04:38,209 --> 00:04:40,210
We actually went here last year.
105
00:04:40,246 --> 00:04:42,375
-Oh, you're pros!
-[Jill] Yes, we are.
106
00:04:42,410 --> 00:04:44,412
We had so much fun last year
107
00:04:44,447 --> 00:04:46,580
that we had
to come back this year.
108
00:04:46,683 --> 00:04:48,985
Even my husband, who's a man,
had a good time.
109
00:04:49,020 --> 00:04:50,685
I enjoyed it very much.
110
00:04:50,787 --> 00:04:52,586
Coming to this makes you feel part of the family.
111
00:04:52,622 --> 00:04:55,121
And the relationship
between actors and fans,
112
00:04:55,156 --> 00:04:56,823
it's cool.
113
00:04:56,925 --> 00:04:59,426
This is the perfect way to start
the Christmas holiday.
114
00:04:59,495 --> 00:05:00,692
-Am I right?
-[Jill] Yes, yes.
115
00:05:00,760 --> 00:05:03,235
Anything Hallmark
is just wonderful.
116
00:05:03,270 --> 00:05:04,701
What's up guys?
Hot Cocoa Crasher coming in!
117

118
00:05:08,174 --> 00:05:09,471
[Taylor] Oh,
we need one for you.
119
00:05:09,507 --> 00:05:10,137
[Benjamin] Well,
I would love one, please.
120
00:05:10,173 --> 00:05:11,571
Thank you so much.
121
00:05:11,673 --> 00:05:13,509
We did a movie together,
Taylor and I,
122
00:05:13,545 --> 00:05:15,247
and we spent most of
the movie just making sure
123
00:05:15,316 --> 00:05:16,813
each of us didn't have
whipped cream on our face
124
00:05:16,882 --> 00:05:18,214
or anything.
125
00:05:18,250 --> 00:05:19,380
I didn't get your name.
I'm Ben.
126
00:05:19,449 --> 00:05:20,677
-I'm Jill.
-Jill, nice to meet you.
127
00:05:20,746 --> 00:05:22,919
-Kim.
-Kim, nice to meet you.
128
00:05:23,021 --> 00:05:24,088
I'm curious to know,
129
00:05:24,190 --> 00:05:25,687
all these incredible stores
here,
130
00:05:25,722 --> 00:05:27,552
is there any type of,
like, things you love to see
131
00:05:27,588 --> 00:05:29,061
or things you've been buying?
132
00:05:29,096 --> 00:05:30,194
We always had to get
an ornament.
133
00:05:30,229 --> 00:05:32,493
We got another ornament
this year.
134
00:05:32,595 --> 00:05:33,757
Is that a big thing for you,
ornaments?
135
00:05:33,793 --> 00:05:35,497
-It is.
-Always, always, always.
136
00:05:35,633 --> 00:05:37,468
It's just that brings
that special moment back.
137
00:05:37,537 --> 00:05:39,738
Hallmark always holds
a special place in our hearts
138
00:05:39,840 --> 00:05:41,472
with our community.
139
00:05:41,540 --> 00:05:43,672
And all of the movies,
they're just so heartwarming.
140
00:05:43,774 --> 00:05:46,873
No matter what you're going
through in your life, um...
141
00:05:46,975 --> 00:05:49,214
you know there's hope at
the end of the Hallmark movies.
142
00:05:49,283 --> 00:05:51,380
And it just, it touches you
all the time.
143
00:05:51,449 --> 00:05:52,910
It brings all
the warm and fuzzies.
144
00:05:52,945 --> 00:05:55,380
-[Jill] It does.
-Just like hot cocoa.
145
00:05:55,415 --> 00:05:57,450
Exactly. Cheers.
146
00:05:57,486 --> 00:06:00,224
And even to go beyond community
147
00:06:00,259 --> 00:06:01,753
is the actual connection
like this.
148
00:06:01,822 --> 00:06:03,025
And I think that's
what's so beautiful
149
00:06:03,160 --> 00:06:04,589
about these experiences.
150
00:06:04,625 --> 00:06:05,956
It actually brings us together
151
00:06:06,058 --> 00:06:08,530
and we bond over the movies
that we love.
152
00:06:08,565 --> 00:06:11,267
-We've got it again.
-But it's perfect.
153
00:06:11,302 --> 00:06:12,401
Are you ready?
It's my turn.
154
00:06:12,470 --> 00:06:13,398
I've done this in a couple
of movies.
155
00:06:13,433 --> 00:06:14,805
Oh, here we go.
156
00:06:14,874 --> 00:06:16,068
Oh my gosh.
157
00:06:16,170 --> 00:06:17,703
Whoa!
158
00:06:17,805 --> 00:06:19,075
Anyway, guys,
it was so good to see you.
159
00:06:19,110 --> 00:06:19,943
That's never coming off.
160
00:06:20,045 --> 00:06:21,207
[Benjamin] No it's not.
161
00:06:21,243 --> 00:06:22,513
Oh my gosh.
162
00:06:23,447 --> 00:06:25,280
-Aww!
-There's the Hallmark moment.

You know, tonight, people from
all over the world came
166
00:06:35,293 --> 00:06:37,056
to be part of our holiday story.
167
00:06:37,092 --> 00:06:39,463
I mean, some visitors literally
traveled thousands of miles
168
00:06:39,532 --> 00:06:41,597
because there's just
something so special about
169
00:06:41,666 --> 00:06:44,863
the way Hallmark taps into
the Christmas spirit.
170
00:06:44,898 --> 00:06:47,503
And we are so excited to
have Tyler and BJ
171
00:06:47,538 --> 00:06:49,772
meeting some
of those folks right now.
172
00:06:49,807 --> 00:06:51,870
So let's find out who traveled
the farthest to experience
173
00:06:51,905 --> 00:06:54,171
the magic of Christmas with us,
shall we?

00:07:05,754 --> 00:07:07,157
[Jess] I traveled so far to get here,
177
00:07:07,193 --> 00:07:08,823
and this is so important to me
178
00:07:08,891 --> 00:07:11,828
because this is what
I dreamt for for a long time.
179
00:07:11,863 --> 00:07:15,729
And finally seeing it come true,
it's beyond my wildest dreams.
180
00:07:15,764 --> 00:07:19,198
[BJ] Who traveled by car
16 hours or more?
181
00:07:19,233 --> 00:07:20,872
By car?
182
00:07:20,908 --> 00:07:22,274
17 hours or more?
183
00:07:22,342 --> 00:07:23,138
[Tyler] This is
The Price is Right !
184
00:07:23,240 --> 00:07:25,037
[BJ] 18 hours or more?
185
00:07:25,072 --> 00:07:26,273
-Oh, wait, we got it!
-Where did you come from?
186
00:07:26,309 --> 00:07:27,840
[Angela] Orlando.
187
00:07:27,875 --> 00:07:30,042
-[BJ] Orlando?
-[BJ & Tyler] Come on down.
188
00:07:30,078 --> 00:07:32,880
We drove 18 and a half hours.
I'm just like, pick me!
189
00:07:32,915 --> 00:07:35,320
You know, I drove the farthest.
We drove the farthest.
190
00:07:35,389 --> 00:07:36,518
-I drove the furthest.
-Yeah, just kidding.
191
00:07:36,586 --> 00:07:38,457
He drove the farthest.
But I rode.
192
00:07:39,390 --> 00:07:41,189
It's all
because she doesn't fly.
193
00:07:41,291 --> 00:07:43,392
I don't love to fly.
194
00:07:43,494 --> 00:07:45,925
So why not make a road trip
of it?
195
00:07:45,994 --> 00:07:48,461
We are celebrating our
12th wedding anniversary,
196
00:07:48,529 --> 00:07:49,798
which is very exciting.
197
00:07:50,396 --> 00:07:52,098
Orlando!
198
00:07:52,167 --> 00:07:53,766
Hi!
199
00:07:53,801 --> 00:07:55,173
With Hallmark,
it's like everybody
200
00:07:55,209 --> 00:07:56,541
is just part
of one big family.
201
00:07:57,341 --> 00:07:59,808
Thank you. Nice to see you!
202
00:08:01,378 --> 00:08:06,314
[heartwarming Christmas music]
203
00:08:06,349 --> 00:08:07,616
[laughs] All right.
204
00:08:07,651 --> 00:08:10,186
The question is,
who has come the furthest?
205
00:08:10,254 --> 00:08:12,051
-Oh.
-[Jess] Mexico.
206
00:08:12,086 --> 00:08:14,625
[BJ] Oh! Has anybody traveled
further than Mexico?
207
00:08:16,127 --> 00:08:17,691
[BJ] Wait, what?
208
00:08:17,793 --> 00:08:19,423
Oh my goodness,
you're from France.
209
00:08:19,458 --> 00:08:20,592
Yes.
210
00:08:20,727 --> 00:08:22,630
-Bonjour. -Bonjour.
211
00:08:22,665 --> 00:08:25,435
I am Nadia and I come
from France.
212
00:08:25,503 --> 00:08:26,798
Let's hear it for our
two winners.
213
00:08:26,900 --> 00:08:29,637
Yes, please!
[cheers and applause]
214
00:08:29,672 --> 00:08:32,804
-Now, we have no gifts.
-We don't.
215
00:08:32,906 --> 00:08:34,143
-But we have hugs.
-We have hugs.
216
00:08:34,178 --> 00:08:35,542
We do have hugs.
217
00:08:35,611 --> 00:08:37,282
Group hug!
Are we doing this?
218
00:08:37,317 --> 00:08:38,345
-[Nadia] Oh my goodness!
-[BJ] Awww!
219
00:08:38,381 --> 00:08:39,243
[Nadia] Thank you.
220
00:08:43,352 --> 00:08:45,390
Thank you so much.
221
00:08:45,459 --> 00:08:48,459
-Oh, don't, stop, girl.
-Thank you so much.
222
00:08:48,494 --> 00:08:49,657
It's the best thing
that happened to me.
223
00:08:49,693 --> 00:08:51,023
We got a treat for you later,
okay?
224
00:08:51,125 --> 00:08:52,392
-Thank you so much.
-There's a treat for you later.
225
00:08:52,527 --> 00:08:53,526
You're gonna love it.
226
00:08:53,561 --> 00:08:54,994
I don't even have words.
227
00:08:55,096 --> 00:08:57,536
This has been the
most magical experience ever.
228
00:09:03,542 --> 00:09:04,675
How was your time last year?
Was it nice?
229
00:09:16,583 --> 00:09:18,523
Oh, I love this.
230
00:09:18,559 --> 00:09:20,091
Would it be alright if
I come meet your friends?
231
00:09:20,159 --> 00:09:21,922
-Yeah.
-And say hi?
232
00:09:22,024 --> 00:09:23,090
You want to surprise them
instead of telling them?
233
00:09:23,192 --> 00:09:24,288
Yes.
234
00:09:39,979 --> 00:09:40,711
Hi, guys.
235
00:09:43,646 --> 00:09:46,347
-Nadia!
-You are my surprise!
236
00:09:46,382 --> 00:09:49,181
[lively chatter]
237
00:09:50,016 --> 00:09:51,815
-I'm Tyler.
-Very nice to meet you.
238
00:09:51,850 --> 00:09:53,086
I know who you are.
239
00:10:00,164 --> 00:10:01,765
Look, guys.
240
00:10:01,800 --> 00:10:04,701
I brought something,
and it's a friendship bracelet.
241
00:10:04,770 --> 00:10:07,164
And I brought one for
each of you because it was
242
00:10:07,267 --> 00:10:09,005
a tradition that we kind
of started a while ago.
243
00:10:09,074 --> 00:10:10,507
Thank you.
244
00:10:10,576 --> 00:10:11,839
[Tyler] And it was a way
for everybody
245
00:10:11,941 --> 00:10:14,179
to sort of like have a reason
to say hello.
246
00:10:14,214 --> 00:10:15,679
[Margaret] Stay together.
247
00:10:15,748 --> 00:10:16,143
[Tyler] Kind of like
a little secret handshake.
248
00:10:16,245 --> 00:10:17,611
Yes.
249
00:10:17,680 --> 00:10:19,516
It's actually very nice for us
250
00:10:19,551 --> 00:10:21,652
to be able to reunite
with Nadia,
251
00:10:21,754 --> 00:10:24,686
especially for the fact
that we met her last year.
252
00:10:24,754 --> 00:10:26,023
She doesn't really have a family.
253
00:10:26,092 --> 00:10:27,689
Totally amazing
254
00:10:27,757 --> 00:10:29,490
that you meet somebody at
Hallmark
255
00:10:29,525 --> 00:10:31,892
and you have this bond.
256
00:10:31,927 --> 00:10:34,997
It is truly
a Hallmark Christmas story.
257
00:10:35,032 --> 00:10:37,062
[Tyler] Let's try a foursome
connection. Let's see here.
258
00:10:37,131 --> 00:10:39,468
-Let's see what that goes.
-[Tyler] Let's go.
259
00:10:39,536 --> 00:10:40,535
You got it.
You got it.
260
00:10:40,604 --> 00:10:42,466
-Look.
-[Margaret] That's good.
261
00:10:42,502 --> 00:10:45,039
-I've never done four people.
-[Kimberly] Hearts together.
262
00:10:45,074 --> 00:10:46,774
-[Tyler] This is so funny.
-Thank you very much.
263
00:10:46,810 --> 00:10:48,076
-This is so silly.
-Now we're family.
264
00:10:48,145 --> 00:10:49,478
Yes.
265
00:10:49,547 --> 00:10:51,078
We started out as good friends.
266
00:10:51,113 --> 00:10:54,013
We bonded over the Hallmark
Christmas Experience.
267
00:10:54,081 --> 00:10:56,112
However, she's more
than just a friend.
268
00:10:56,214 --> 00:10:58,819
She is family to me
and to us now.
269
00:10:58,888 --> 00:11:01,592
I thank you guys
for finding each other.
270
00:11:01,627 --> 00:11:02,688
I thank you for coming
to these events
271
00:11:02,757 --> 00:11:04,256
and spending time with us.
272
00:11:04,291 --> 00:11:06,229
It means the world.
We appreciate the kindness.
273
00:11:06,264 --> 00:11:07,596
You're welcome.
274
00:11:07,698 --> 00:11:09,366
Thank you very, very much,
Nadia.
275
00:11:09,401 --> 00:11:10,532
And welcome to the family.
276
00:11:10,567 --> 00:11:12,998
Welcome to the Nadia family.
277
00:11:13,100 --> 00:11:14,772
-Thank you, guys.
-Thank you very much.
278
00:11:24,779 --> 00:11:26,177
Now that's what it's all about!
279
00:11:26,280 --> 00:11:28,884
Jess joining us all the way
from Mexico City.
280
00:11:28,920 --> 00:11:31,320
Nadia came all the way here
from France twice
281
00:11:31,355 --> 00:11:33,692
just to be here.
282
00:11:33,794 --> 00:11:36,189
But we've only just started
our holiday celebration.
283
00:11:36,224 --> 00:11:38,729
We are gonna be making our spirits bright with
284
00:11:38,831 --> 00:11:41,932
a live performance by four-time Grammy-nominated
285
00:11:41,967 --> 00:11:44,296
and artist country music trailblazer, Mickey Guyton,
286
00:11:44,331 --> 00:11:47,465
who will be singing her song,
Joy to Your World.
287
00:11:47,533 --> 00:11:49,900
And we also have a very special surprise announcement
288
00:11:49,935 --> 00:11:51,807
from Lacey Chabert
289
00:11:51,876 --> 00:11:53,706
that you will absolutely not wanna miss.
290
00:11:53,741 --> 00:11:55,174
[cheers and applause]
291
00:11:55,209 --> 00:11:57,142
[Benjamin] Plus another holiday musical treat
292
00:11:57,178 --> 00:11:59,584
from the legendary singer Brad Paisley,
293
00:11:59,653 --> 00:12:01,451
and of course a Christmas tree lighting
294
00:12:01,486 --> 00:12:02,715
that will warm your heart.
295
00:12:02,750 --> 00:12:03,983
[cheers and applause]
296
00:12:04,018 --> 00:12:05,282
[Benjamin]
So stay tuned because
297
00:12:05,318 --> 00:12:08,859
it's all part of our Christmas
gift to you.
298
00:12:12,596 --> 00:12:18,195
[heartwarming Christmas music]
299
00:12:18,297 --> 00:12:19,600
It's so beautiful in here.
Thank you.
300
00:12:19,735 --> 00:12:20,868
You know, welcome back to
301
00:12:20,904 --> 00:12:22,838
The Hallmark Christmas Experience,
302
00:12:22,907 --> 00:12:24,301
where we're bringing
you an exclusive look
303
00:12:24,404 --> 00:12:26,811
at all the ways Hallmark
celebrates the holidays
304
00:12:26,913 --> 00:12:30,614
by inviting you into our home
right here in Kansas City.
305
00:12:30,649 --> 00:12:32,614
Nothing says
a Hallmark Christmas
306
00:12:32,683 --> 00:12:34,581
like a little mistletoe magic.
307
00:12:34,617 --> 00:12:39,857
[music continues]
308
00:12:43,326 --> 00:12:46,457
[Benjamin] Messner Bee Farm is a Kansas City hometown fave
309
00:12:46,526 --> 00:12:49,163
and a wonderful part of our Hallmark festivities.
310
00:12:50,596 --> 00:12:53,635
I love the Hallmark Christmas
Experience because it brings
311
00:12:53,704 --> 00:12:55,971
a ton of people to Kansas City.
312
00:12:56,106 --> 00:12:59,071
It showcases some of the best vendors and brands
313
00:12:59,173 --> 00:13:00,744
right out of Kansas City here too.
314
00:13:00,812 --> 00:13:02,573
And we get to kind of all be together.
315
00:13:02,642 --> 00:13:05,916
The lights and the shows and
the tree is completely magical.
316
00:13:07,183 --> 00:13:08,218
[Jess] I'm totally having my Hallmark moment.
317
00:13:08,320 --> 00:13:10,250
[BJ] Are you?
318
00:13:10,319 --> 00:13:11,556
[Benjamin] Because Jess traveled so far to get here,
319
00:13:11,591 --> 00:13:14,318
BJ has a special treat prepared.
320
00:13:14,353 --> 00:13:18,124
I get the best leading guy,
Hallmark hunk.
321
00:13:18,226 --> 00:13:21,226
-I cannot ask for more.
-I got you. Listen,
322
00:13:21,295 --> 00:13:24,528
I have something very,
very special for you.
323
00:13:24,597 --> 00:13:26,631
If you wouldn't mind sitting
right here for me, please.
324
00:13:26,766 --> 00:13:27,801
Thank you.
325
00:13:27,870 --> 00:13:30,472
You have such an amazing view.
326
00:13:30,607 --> 00:13:31,907
Gonna make sure you have
327
00:13:31,975 --> 00:13:33,505
a beautiful experience this
evening, okay?
328
00:13:33,607 --> 00:13:34,945
Thanks.

00:13:42,616 --> 00:13:43,954
My dog.
332
00:13:45,324 --> 00:13:46,655
How you doing?
333
00:13:46,724 --> 00:13:48,593
Listen, I have a special friend
334
00:13:48,628 --> 00:13:49,991
who traveled all the way
from Mexico.
335
00:13:50,127 --> 00:13:51,560
I need you to make sure
she's well taken care of.
336
00:13:51,662 --> 00:13:52,394
-I got you.
-You got me?
337
00:13:52,496 --> 00:13:53,859
-Yeah.
-My man.
338
00:13:53,928 --> 00:13:54,927
All right.
All right.
339
00:13:55,062 --> 00:13:57,294
Special drink.
Special drink.
340
00:13:57,330 --> 00:13:59,101
Little bit of that.
That's special.
341
00:14:00,205 --> 00:14:02,134
Limes?
342
00:14:02,170 --> 00:14:05,474
Ooh, we got cherries.
That's special.
343
00:14:05,509 --> 00:14:09,205
[playful music]
344
00:14:09,274 --> 00:14:11,480
-Are you Jess?
-I am Jess.
345
00:14:11,515 --> 00:14:12,980
I heard, uh...
346
00:14:13,015 --> 00:14:14,618
you were looking
for a special drink.
347
00:14:14,720 --> 00:14:17,017
This is for you.
I made this myself.
348
00:14:17,086 --> 00:14:18,314
So you're from whereabouts
in Mexico?
349
00:14:18,416 --> 00:14:19,987
-Mexico City.
-This is a big trip.
350
00:14:20,023 --> 00:14:22,058
-It was.
-And did you come on your own?
351
00:14:22,094 --> 00:14:23,725
-Did you come with other people?
-No, I came on my own.
352
00:14:23,760 --> 00:14:25,324
That takes so much courage.

Wow, that was beautiful.
538
00:21:55,309 --> 00:21:56,773
And if joy has a sound,
539
00:21:56,809 --> 00:21:59,548
Mickey Guyton
just gave it a voice.
540
00:21:59,683 --> 00:22:02,347
Okay, so I have a big surprise
from a very special member
541
00:22:02,382 --> 00:22:04,486
of our Hallmark family.
542
00:22:04,521 --> 00:22:07,388
Joining us all the way
from Orlando, Florida,
543
00:22:07,456 --> 00:22:09,591
my very good friend,
Lacey Chabert.
544
00:22:10,591 --> 00:22:12,994
Thank you, Benjamin.
Hello, everyone.
545
00:22:13,030 --> 00:22:14,662
I'm Lacey Chabert,
546
00:22:14,698 --> 00:22:17,298
and I am so excited to be
celebrating with you all.
547
00:22:17,400 --> 00:22:19,035
I am here with
some special friends,
548
00:22:19,137 --> 00:22:20,834
Mickey Mouse and Minnie Mouse.
549
00:22:20,902 --> 00:22:23,503
And I have got some big news
that I cannot wait to share
550
00:22:23,572 --> 00:22:26,407
from the most magical place
on Earth.
551
00:22:26,476 --> 00:22:30,677
Well, I bet you can guess
where I am.
552
00:22:30,712 --> 00:22:32,645
And for the first time ever,
we are announcing
553
00:22:32,681 --> 00:22:35,986
a brand new 2026
Countdown to Christmas movie
554
00:22:36,022 --> 00:22:37,920
a whole year ahead of schedule.
555
00:22:38,022 --> 00:22:40,521
All right, here it goes!
556
00:22:40,590 --> 00:22:43,490
I am incredibly excited
and so honored to share
557
00:22:43,558 --> 00:22:45,258
that I will be starring
in the all-new
558
00:22:45,394 --> 00:22:48,532
2026 Hallmark Christmas movie
559
00:22:48,568 --> 00:22:52,228
Holiday Ever After:A Disney World Wish Come True ,
560
00:22:52,330 --> 00:22:55,502
filming right here on location
at Walt Disney World Resort.
561
00:22:55,538 --> 00:22:57,273
I love visiting here
with my family,
562
00:22:57,308 --> 00:22:58,470
and I always thought
it would make
563
00:22:58,505 --> 00:23:00,076
the absolute perfect setting
564
00:23:00,178 --> 00:23:01,873
for a Hallmark Christmas movie.
565
00:23:01,975 --> 00:23:04,377
We can't wait for you to see
Holiday Ever After:
566
00:23:04,446 --> 00:23:06,346
A Disney World Wish Come True.
567
00:23:06,381 --> 00:23:08,386
Merry Christmas, everyone!
568
00:23:10,552 --> 00:23:12,181
And this is what
I love about Lacey.
569
00:23:12,250 --> 00:23:15,258
She always finds a way
to be a part of the celebration.
570
00:23:15,326 --> 00:23:16,927
And there's lots more of that
ahead.
571
00:23:16,996 --> 00:23:18,261
We're about to discover
572
00:23:18,330 --> 00:23:20,091
another side of the Christmas spirit--
573
00:23:20,160 --> 00:23:23,530
how families stay connected even when they're far apart.
574
00:23:23,665 --> 00:23:26,932
Plus, we're counting down
the minutes
575
00:23:27,034 --> 00:23:30,238
to another incredible
musical moment with Brad Paisley
576
00:23:30,273 --> 00:23:31,967
that you won't wanna miss.
577
00:23:32,003 --> 00:23:34,509
And we have a special
holiday message
578
00:23:34,577 --> 00:23:37,074
from the stars of
When Calls the Heart.
579
00:23:37,210 --> 00:23:40,280
And a Christmas tree lighting like you'll never forget.
580
00:23:40,315 --> 00:23:42,519
Lots more magic ahead.
581
00:23:48,291 --> 00:23:54,865
[majestic Christmassy music]
582
00:23:54,967 --> 00:23:56,832

[cheering]
584
00:23:58,934 --> 00:24:00,466
Now you're gonna learn
what it's like to be an actor.
585
00:24:00,535 --> 00:24:02,406
You ready?
When I come over,
586
00:24:02,475 --> 00:24:03,769
I'm gonna give you a hug
and say "Merry Christmas,"
587
00:24:03,871 --> 00:24:06,142
and then you can just walk away
that way, okay?
588
00:24:06,244 --> 00:24:07,977
-Okay. All right, good.
-Okay?
589
00:24:08,046 --> 00:24:10,313
Connie, how are you?
590
00:24:10,382 --> 00:24:11,874
-Merry Christmas.
-Merry Christmas.
591
00:24:11,909 --> 00:24:14,282
It's so good to see you.
Right.
592
00:24:14,317 --> 00:24:15,748
You know, the holidays are
593
00:24:15,783 --> 00:24:17,686
officially underway here
in Kansas City,
594
00:24:17,821 --> 00:24:20,090
and the Christmas spirit is lighting up every corner
595
00:24:20,126 --> 00:24:21,556
of the Hallmark Experience.
596
00:24:21,625 --> 00:24:23,924
-Merry Christmas.
-[Woman] Merry Christmas!
597
00:24:23,959 --> 00:24:26,825
The warmth, the wonder, the joy,
it's all here at our home.
598
00:24:26,893 --> 00:24:28,863
And now we're in the Christmas market,
599
00:24:28,899 --> 00:24:31,897
where USAA is giving attendees
the opportunity to give back
600
00:24:31,966 --> 00:24:34,432
to the military community
this holiday season.
601
00:24:34,467 --> 00:24:35,906
Come with us.
602
00:24:36,008 --> 00:24:41,873
[upbeat Christmas music]
603
00:24:41,908 --> 00:24:43,105
-[Rhiannon] Excuse me, sir.
-Yes, ma'am.
604
00:24:43,174 --> 00:24:44,777
Do you happen
to know what this is a line for?
605
00:24:44,813 --> 00:24:47,348
Yes, ma'am.
We're in line to sign postcards
606
00:24:47,417 --> 00:24:49,619
for our troops who are deployed.
607
00:24:49,687 --> 00:24:52,588
-Oh, that's lovely.
-Yes, it's a beautiful thing.
608
00:24:52,657 --> 00:24:55,125
-My father's actually military.
-Oh, okay, really?
609
00:24:55,227 --> 00:24:58,194
He was a captain in the Army.
610
00:24:58,229 --> 00:24:59,791
-Captain Cole.
-Awesome.
611
00:24:59,826 --> 00:25:01,432
-Awesome. Awesome.
-[Taylor] Yeah.
612
00:25:01,501 --> 00:25:04,095
I think they said
that phone calls were like $100.
613
00:25:04,131 --> 00:25:06,501
-Even overseas, they were more.
-I've experienced it.
614
00:25:06,603 --> 00:25:08,801
You know what I'm talking about,
right?
615
00:25:08,837 --> 00:25:11,804
-Yes, ma'am.
-These letters are so precious.
616
00:25:11,840 --> 00:25:14,209
-They're priceless.
-Yes, it is. Yes, it is.
617
00:25:14,244 --> 00:25:15,709
I'm a retired military.
618
00:25:15,844 --> 00:25:17,412
-I have 22 years.
-Thank you for your service.
619
00:25:17,448 --> 00:25:19,144
-Oh, my goodness!
-Yes, ma'am.
620
00:25:19,179 --> 00:25:20,249
[Rhiannon] Do you receive
any letters that you remember?
621
00:25:20,285 --> 00:25:21,516
Yes, ma'am.
All the time.
622
00:25:21,618 --> 00:25:22,981
My wife and my son
would send them to me.
623
00:25:23,050 --> 00:25:24,516
It would just hit the right spot
at the right time.
624
00:25:24,551 --> 00:25:26,624
Oh, that's so nice!
625
00:25:26,692 --> 00:25:28,890
It just excites me to know
that there's people all around
626
00:25:28,992 --> 00:25:33,728
the world that you are able
to meet that love our military.
627
00:25:33,830 --> 00:25:36,663
What a great and wonderful
experience we're having.
628
00:25:36,698 --> 00:25:38,734
-Thank you so much.
-You're welcome.
629
00:25:38,802 --> 00:25:40,736
-Thank you very much.
-[Tony] You're very welcome.
630
00:25:41,704 --> 00:25:43,438
Oh, and here's where you write
the letters.
631
00:25:43,473 --> 00:25:45,976
Look!
Oh, this is so sweet!
632
00:25:46,012 --> 00:25:46,676
Thank you so much.
633
00:25:48,244 --> 00:25:50,548
With all the love.
634
00:25:53,183 --> 00:25:54,614
Oh, I love this.
635
00:25:54,649 --> 00:25:56,279
Sealed with a kiss.
Always.
636
00:25:58,122 --> 00:25:59,120
Merry Christmas.
637
00:25:59,222 --> 00:26:00,217
[Taylor] Bye.
638
00:26:03,927 --> 00:26:06,128
[Benjamin] Now this is what the Hallmark Experience
639
00:26:06,164 --> 00:26:07,893
is truly about.
640
00:26:07,995 --> 00:26:10,665
Families bonding, traditions beginning,
641
00:26:10,734 --> 00:26:13,936
joy that fills the air, and very soon,
642
00:26:13,971 --> 00:26:16,536
a Christmas tree lightingthat will bring us all together
643
00:26:16,638 --> 00:26:18,301
to spread the holiday cheer.
644
00:26:19,673 --> 00:26:21,711
Welcome to the Hallmarket!
645
00:26:22,314 --> 00:26:25,912
[upbeat Christmassy rock music]
646
00:26:25,947 --> 00:26:28,152
Let us know if you need
anything else at all.
647
00:26:28,187 --> 00:26:30,082
-Yeah.
-Merry Christmas.
648
00:26:31,089 --> 00:26:32,986
So lay it on me.
649
00:26:33,088 --> 00:26:34,454
What is a holiday tradition
that you look forward to?
650
00:26:34,489 --> 00:26:37,792
Every Christmas Eve,
651
00:26:37,827 --> 00:26:39,823
my dad reads us
The Night Before Christmas.
652
00:26:39,858 --> 00:26:41,328
Aww!
Even now as adults?
653
00:26:41,430 --> 00:26:42,594
Even now as adults.
654
00:26:42,629 --> 00:26:43,730
[Karlyn] That's perfect.
655
00:26:43,765 --> 00:26:45,468
[Jennifer]
Yeah, I think so too.
656
00:26:45,536 --> 00:26:47,898
-That is my favorite.
-[Robert] Hey!
657
00:26:48,000 --> 00:26:50,573
-Ladies, how are you?
-[Both] Hi!
658
00:26:50,641 --> 00:26:52,869
-[Rhiannon] Merry Christmas!
-What's up?
659
00:26:52,971 --> 00:26:54,043
-Why not?
-[Jennifer] I know.
660
00:26:54,145 --> 00:26:55,608
[lively chatter]
661
00:26:55,643 --> 00:26:56,839
[Robert] That's what we do.
662
00:26:56,874 --> 00:26:58,514
It's all about holidays.
663
00:26:58,583 --> 00:27:00,517
What are we in the market
for today?
664
00:27:00,553 --> 00:27:01,748
[Karlyn] Ornaments.
It's a family tradition.
665
00:27:01,784 --> 00:27:03,753
My grandpa started me
on ornaments.
666
00:27:03,821 --> 00:27:06,188
I carry down the family
tradition with my children
667
00:27:06,290 --> 00:27:07,488
and my granddaughters.
668
00:27:07,523 --> 00:27:09,954
So he had a stationary store
669
00:27:10,056 --> 00:27:12,459
and he had
the Hallmark ornaments in there.
670
00:27:12,494 --> 00:27:14,124
And as a little tyke,
671
00:27:14,226 --> 00:27:16,165
I used to go in and play
with each one of them.
672
00:27:16,234 --> 00:27:18,235
And so every year,
673
00:27:18,337 --> 00:27:20,835
we got a new one
for Christmas.
674
00:27:20,871 --> 00:27:22,402
That sounds like the start
of a Hallmark movie.
675
00:27:22,437 --> 00:27:24,208
Yeah. I'm game!
676
00:27:24,243 --> 00:27:25,937
-[laughs]
-[Rhiannon] Aww!
677
00:27:26,039 --> 00:27:27,704
What are you guys' favorite
ornaments?
678
00:27:27,839 --> 00:27:29,880
-Well.
-[Karlyn] Well.
679
00:27:29,915 --> 00:27:34,850
Rob was actually just telling us
that he has a Christmas pickle.
680
00:27:34,886 --> 00:27:36,317
[Robert] Are you familiar with
the Christmas pickle?
681
00:27:36,352 --> 00:27:37,620
-Yes.
-Yes!
682
00:27:37,722 --> 00:27:39,022
-I've never heard of it!
-He had an octopus.
683
00:27:39,057 --> 00:27:40,216
[laughter]
684
00:27:40,252 --> 00:27:41,787
So you guys played,
like, hide the octopus?
685
00:27:41,922 --> 00:27:43,394
-Yes.
-[Rhiannon] That's amazing!
686
00:27:43,496 --> 00:27:45,155
I wonder how many variants
there are.
687
00:27:45,257 --> 00:27:47,196
If it goes all the way
from pickle to octopus,
688
00:27:47,265 --> 00:27:48,829
it's quite a range.
689
00:27:48,865 --> 00:27:50,433
Should we get a picture of
the four of us?
690
00:27:50,535 --> 00:27:51,898
And maybe that goes in
an ornament?
691
00:27:52,000 --> 00:27:53,665
-Oh, that would be cool.
-That's a great idea.
692
00:27:53,700 --> 00:27:54,732
-I think so.
-Okay.
693
00:27:54,868 --> 00:27:56,536
-Yeah.
-Say "Christmas squid".
694
00:27:56,671 --> 00:27:59,309
[Others] Christmas squid!
695
00:27:59,345 --> 00:28:01,272
-Awesome, guys.
-[laughter]
696
00:28:01,374 --> 00:28:03,544
-We loved meeting you guys.
-We loved meeting you both.
697
00:28:03,613 --> 00:28:05,514
And if you need anything else,
698
00:28:05,550 --> 00:28:07,817
you know, we work
on commission.
699
00:28:07,886 --> 00:28:10,080
So just please give us a holler.
We'll be happy to help.
700
00:28:10,115 --> 00:28:11,420
Maybe take us back off
the shelf.
701
00:28:11,556 --> 00:28:12,884
Make sure you hang on to
that one.
702
00:28:12,986 --> 00:28:13,916
-Yeah, exactly.
-[laughing] Yeah.
703
00:28:13,951 --> 00:28:16,660
[upbeat Christmas music]
704
00:28:16,729 --> 00:28:19,155
[Jessy] I'm looking for
a perfect Christmas gift.
705
00:28:19,191 --> 00:28:20,630
Would you like to see
some ornaments?
706
00:28:20,665 --> 00:28:21,998
-I would love that.
-We have some here.
707
00:28:22,066 --> 00:28:23,965
Okay.
708
00:28:24,067 --> 00:28:25,463
So you sound very excited about
the keepsake ornaments.
709
00:28:25,498 --> 00:28:26,866
I am.
710
00:28:27,001 --> 00:28:28,464
[Jessy] Do you
have a personal connection?
711
00:28:28,499 --> 00:28:31,101
I do. So I've been at Hallmark
for almost 30 years.
712
00:28:31,170 --> 00:28:33,303
-I'm a designer in keepsake.
-Oh, wow.
713
00:28:33,339 --> 00:28:34,839
And so I get to make these
things for everyone.
714
00:28:34,975 --> 00:28:36,444
And it's the best job in
the world.
715
00:28:36,579 --> 00:28:38,508
[Jessy] My mom is an artist.
716
00:28:38,543 --> 00:28:41,346
And the first job she was ever
offered out of college was
717
00:28:41,382 --> 00:28:44,748
to come work here at Hallmark
as an artist for the cards.
718
00:28:44,783 --> 00:28:45,984
That's amazing.
719
00:28:46,019 --> 00:28:47,924
My mom
is actually here this year.
720
00:28:47,959 --> 00:28:49,821
So getting to bring her to
the Crown Center and getting
721
00:28:49,856 --> 00:28:52,058
to meet someone like you,
722
00:28:52,094 --> 00:28:53,594
who's an artist
and a designer and has literally
723
00:28:53,630 --> 00:28:56,459
created all of these memories,
724
00:28:56,528 --> 00:28:58,701
-that's what's filling us.
-That's really neat to hear.
725
00:28:58,803 --> 00:29:01,338
I like to think every ornament
has a story.
726
00:29:01,440 --> 00:29:03,004
-Yes.
-I remember years ago
727
00:29:03,106 --> 00:29:05,204
I got an ornament for
my first wedding anniversary.
728
00:29:05,240 --> 00:29:07,676
And then, like, 10 years later,
I ended up working with
729
00:29:07,744 --> 00:29:09,008
the artist that created
that ornament.
730
00:29:09,043 --> 00:29:11,207
-Oh, wow!
-So it means even more to me.
731
00:29:11,309 --> 00:29:14,013
It's genuinely as personal
as it can be.
732
00:29:14,048 --> 00:29:16,384
What's the secret
to creating an ornament
733
00:29:16,419 --> 00:29:17,917
or a keepsake
734
00:29:18,052 --> 00:29:21,088
that makes people feel
so special inside?
735
00:29:21,123 --> 00:29:23,087
I personally love
the ornaments where you can put
736
00:29:23,189 --> 00:29:24,357
the photo in cause
it makes it so personal.
737
00:29:24,425 --> 00:29:26,025
Yeah.
738
00:29:26,060 --> 00:29:27,556
You know, like you pick
that one picture,
739
00:29:27,625 --> 00:29:29,463
that one picture that captured
the whole season for you.
740
00:29:29,565 --> 00:29:31,395
And you put it in there
741
00:29:31,430 --> 00:29:32,666
and then you, either just
to remember the holiday.
742
00:29:32,702 --> 00:29:34,000
I still have a Hallmark ornament
743
00:29:34,103 --> 00:29:36,971
from one of my sons'
first day of kindergarten.
744
00:29:37,106 --> 00:29:39,038
It has a little school bus,
his picture in there.
745
00:29:39,073 --> 00:29:40,976
It's my first one I hang up
every year.
746
00:29:41,112 --> 00:29:43,338
I feel like we need one with
golden macaroni or something.
747
00:29:43,374 --> 00:29:46,113
Yes, yes!
Well, we even made, like,
748
00:29:46,148 --> 00:29:48,446
some fun ornaments
that look like carryout food.
749
00:29:48,548 --> 00:29:50,414
Oh!
750
00:29:50,449 --> 00:29:51,820
And because you might remember,
like, getting together
751
00:29:51,856 --> 00:29:53,621
with your sister and getting
some carryout
752
00:29:53,690 --> 00:29:54,854
and watching movies together.
753
00:29:54,923 --> 00:29:56,425
And it's like something you
share.
754
00:29:56,527 --> 00:29:57,795
So it's that shared memory.
755
00:29:58,893 --> 00:30:04,560
[cheering]
[upbeat, punchy music]
756
00:30:05,969 --> 00:30:07,770
We'll start from,
"We're literally watching
757
00:30:07,839 --> 00:30:10,071
a new holiday tradition
take place", and go.
758
00:30:10,173 --> 00:30:13,140
We're literally watching
a holiday tradition take place.
759
00:30:13,242 --> 00:30:15,307
You just got yourself a new job.
I guess I'll be over here.
760
00:30:15,342 --> 00:30:17,775
Enjoy the rest of your evening.
Thanks so much, man.
761
00:30:17,811 --> 00:30:22,817
[music continues]
762
00:30:23,352 --> 00:30:26,687
We've discovered so many pieces
of the Christmas spirit tonight,
763
00:30:26,756 --> 00:30:28,086
but the best is still to come,
764
00:30:28,121 --> 00:30:29,688
including a visit with
the stars of
765
00:30:29,823 --> 00:30:31,588
When Calls the Heart
766
00:30:31,623 --> 00:30:34,662
and a holiday musical performance by Brad Paisley.
767
00:30:34,697 --> 00:30:36,095
We are getting so close to
768
00:30:36,130 --> 00:30:39,033
the moment
that brings everything together.
769
00:30:39,069 --> 00:30:41,271
The lighting of the Hallmark Christmas tree.
770
00:30:41,307 --> 00:30:42,837
So stay with us.
771
00:30:42,939 --> 00:30:45,238
The heart of Christmas
is about to shine.
772
00:30:50,348 --> 00:30:53,478
[upbeat music]
773
00:30:53,514 --> 00:30:55,645
[Woman] I'm excited to see the Christmas lighting tonight
774
00:30:55,681 --> 00:30:58,988
and I want to be right there
in the ring experiencing it all.
775
00:30:59,653 --> 00:31:01,188
[twinkling]
776
00:31:03,126 --> 00:31:05,224
You know, one of the things
that makes coming home
777
00:31:05,326 --> 00:31:08,195
for the holidays so special
is being with family.
778
00:31:08,231 --> 00:31:10,125
The people who are there
for you through all the ups
779
00:31:10,227 --> 00:31:12,131
and downs during the year.
780
00:31:12,166 --> 00:31:14,130
And speaking of families
with a tight bond,
781
00:31:14,232 --> 00:31:16,001
When Calls the Heart returns
782
00:31:16,136 --> 00:31:17,902
with an all-new season
January 4th
783
00:31:17,937 --> 00:31:19,202
on the Hallmark Channel
784
00:31:19,271 --> 00:31:21,340
and next day
on Hallmark Plus.
785
00:31:22,208 --> 00:31:24,473
Speaking of
When Calls the Heart ,
786
00:31:24,575 --> 00:31:26,711
do we have any Hearties
in the house right now?
787
00:31:26,746 --> 00:31:28,914
[cheering]
788
00:31:28,982 --> 00:31:30,818
Oh, we do! Look at you guys.
789
00:31:30,920 --> 00:31:32,787
I love it.
Okay, look at these two.
790
00:31:32,822 --> 00:31:34,524
-You guys are big fans?
-Yes.
791
00:31:34,560 --> 00:31:35,823
How you doing?
My name is Ben.
792
00:31:35,925 --> 00:31:37,189
Hi, Kimberly.
Nice to meet you.
793
00:31:37,292 --> 00:31:38,861
Kimberly, nice to meet you.
What's your name?
794
00:31:38,929 --> 00:31:40,493
-Courtney.
-Courtney, so nice to meet you.
795
00:31:40,528 --> 00:31:42,692
-[Courtney] So nice to meet you.
-Just sitting here all comfy.
796
00:31:42,761 --> 00:31:44,832
So how long have you been
a fan of When Calls the Heart ?
797
00:31:44,901 --> 00:31:46,296
-About seven, eight years.
-Yeah.
798
00:31:46,364 --> 00:31:47,301
And have you watched all
the seasons?
799
00:31:47,403 --> 00:31:49,069
Yes.
800
00:31:49,105 --> 00:31:50,036
They're about to start
the 13th season, right?
801
00:31:50,104 --> 00:31:51,401
-That's what's about to air?
-Yes.
802
00:31:51,503 --> 00:31:53,239
-That's pretty exciting.
-Oh, it's so exciting.
803
00:31:53,274 --> 00:31:55,443
And you do watch parties
and all the fun stuff?
804
00:31:55,479 --> 00:31:57,542
It's great.
805
00:31:57,577 --> 00:31:59,079
Now, there's a lot of episodes
we're talking about here.
806
00:31:59,147 --> 00:32:01,314
-Oh, yeah.
-Do you have a favorite episode?
807
00:32:01,416 --> 00:32:03,852
I think mine would be
the one where Elizabeth tells
808
00:32:03,921 --> 00:32:06,820
Nathan she loves him for
the first time.
809
00:32:06,856 --> 00:32:08,353
And mine was the wedding episode
810
00:32:08,422 --> 00:32:11,495
when Elizabeth marries Jack
for the first time.
811
00:32:11,530 --> 00:32:12,860
For the first time. Wait,
812
00:32:12,929 --> 00:32:14,226
how many times do they get
married?
813
00:32:14,261 --> 00:32:16,063
Right now,
she only gets married once.
814
00:32:16,098 --> 00:32:17,833
-But we're waiting.
-We're Team Nathan,
815
00:32:17,902 --> 00:32:19,397
so we're waiting
for that second wedding.
816
00:32:19,432 --> 00:32:21,335
[Benjamin] Okay, all right.
That's exciting.
817
00:32:21,370 --> 00:32:22,935
And then that episode will
elevate to our favorite, right?
818
00:32:22,970 --> 00:32:24,874
-Yeah.
-Watch party time.
819
00:32:24,909 --> 00:32:28,078
I must say, I find
that sometimes I can be
820
00:32:28,147 --> 00:32:30,639
a little cold when I'm, like,
sitting and watching a show.
821
00:32:30,708 --> 00:32:33,109
And sometimes, I would love
to just be cozier.
822
00:32:33,144 --> 00:32:35,146
And because you guys are
823
00:32:35,248 --> 00:32:37,083
the biggest fans
I've found today,
824
00:32:37,119 --> 00:32:38,988
I have a gift
for you two right now.
825
00:32:39,090 --> 00:32:41,255
-Okay, thank you.
-All right, I got it back here.
826
00:32:41,290 --> 00:32:43,386
I got Santa to drop them off
for me before I arrived.
827
00:32:43,488 --> 00:32:45,329
-Oh, yay.
-Straight from the North Pole.
828
00:32:45,364 --> 00:32:46,563
There you go.
829
00:32:46,665 --> 00:32:48,094
We get an early
Christmas gift.
830
00:32:48,130 --> 00:32:49,665
-Thank you so much.
-Merry Christmas.
831
00:32:49,767 --> 00:32:51,031
-Happy holidays.
-Thank you.
832
00:32:51,099 --> 00:32:52,832
All right, guys.
All right, Hearties.
833
00:32:52,867 --> 00:32:54,403
[cheers and applause]
834
00:32:54,505 --> 00:32:55,869
These are great.
835
00:32:55,905 --> 00:32:57,871
Very nice and warm.
[laughs]
836
00:32:58,006 --> 00:33:00,306
Oh, man.
Hearties are the best.
837
00:33:00,341 --> 00:33:02,238
And as a thank you
to our Hearties out there,
838
00:33:02,274 --> 00:33:03,914
we have a holiday message from
839
00:33:03,983 --> 00:33:05,345
the■■■■When Calls the Heart
stars,
840
00:33:05,447 --> 00:33:08,012
sending warm wishes to you
straight from Hope Valley.
841
00:33:08,047 --> 00:33:11,448
[tender Christmas music]
842
00:33:11,483 --> 00:33:12,752
There's not one in there
for me, is there?
843
00:33:12,787 --> 00:33:14,284
[both laughing]
844
00:33:14,386 --> 00:33:17,825
I think this is...
Pascal Hutton.
845
00:33:17,893 --> 00:33:19,730
-Oh, hey, Ben.
-Whoa--oh!
846
00:33:19,832 --> 00:33:21,362
-Didn't see you.
-Didn't see you there!
847
00:33:21,464 --> 00:33:23,931
Wow, it's so festive at the
Hallmark Christmas Experience.
848
00:33:24,033 --> 00:33:25,968
-Wow, look at everyone.
-[laughs]
849
00:33:26,037 --> 00:33:28,102
-Hi, I'm Erin Krakow.
-And I'm Kevin McGarry.
850
00:33:28,137 --> 00:33:29,869
And we're coming to you from
the set of
851
00:33:29,904 --> 00:33:31,705
When Calls the Heart.
852
00:33:31,807 --> 00:33:32,940
We are so excited about
853
00:33:33,042 --> 00:33:34,005
the Hallmark Christmas
Experience
854
00:33:34,073 --> 00:33:35,273
and wish we were there,
855
00:33:35,375 --> 00:33:37,980
but duty calls here
in Hope Valley.
856
00:33:38,048 --> 00:33:40,114
And we want to say
a heartfelt thank you
857
00:33:40,183 --> 00:33:41,950
because we couldn't do
any of this without you.
858
00:33:42,018 --> 00:33:44,013
Our Hearties are
the most incredible,
859
00:33:44,082 --> 00:33:45,416
supportive fans.
860
00:33:45,485 --> 00:33:47,318
And the cast and crew
are just so grateful
861
00:33:47,353 --> 00:33:49,392
and thrilled
to be filming season 13.
862
00:33:49,427 --> 00:33:51,028
Thirteen!
863
00:33:51,130 --> 00:33:52,929
We can't wait for you
to see what we've got in store.
864
00:33:52,998 --> 00:33:55,196
It's our best season yet.
So many surprises.
865
00:33:55,232 --> 00:33:57,362
And a little secret
I'm only sharing with you,
866
00:33:57,464 --> 00:33:59,569
we have some
very familiar faces returning.
867
00:33:59,638 --> 00:34:01,500
Mm. You're gonna love it.
868
00:34:01,536 --> 00:34:03,501
Thank you so much for
watching When Calls the Heart
869
00:34:03,536 --> 00:34:06,173
and for being part
of our Hope Valley family.
870
00:34:06,208 --> 00:34:08,610
We're wishing you
a very Merry Christmas.
871
00:34:08,645 --> 00:34:10,443
Merry Christmas.
872
00:34:10,545 --> 00:34:12,178
We're gonna go deliver these
presents to our castmates.
873
00:34:12,313 --> 00:34:13,481
Yeah, I got to get this diamond
to Jack.
874
00:34:13,583 --> 00:34:14,715
[Both] Oh!
875
00:34:14,850 --> 00:34:16,016
And you're gonna enjoy
876
00:34:16,118 --> 00:34:17,884
the Hallmark Christmas
Experience.
877
00:34:17,919 --> 00:34:19,188
-Have fun!
-Bye!
878
00:34:20,520 --> 00:34:23,523
From Hope Valley
to right here in Kansas City,
879
00:34:23,558 --> 00:34:25,429
we bring people together no matter where they are.
880
00:34:25,464 --> 00:34:27,295
[All] Hallmark!
881
00:34:27,430 --> 00:34:28,026
[Benjamin] And speaking of bringing people together,
882
00:34:28,161 --> 00:34:29,327
we've got a performance
883
00:34:29,429 --> 00:34:31,662
that's going to do exactly that.
884
00:34:31,698 --> 00:34:35,303
This incredibly talented
Grammy-winning artist wrote
885
00:34:35,438 --> 00:34:37,770
and performed music for the Hallmark holiday movie,
886
00:34:37,906 --> 00:34:39,569
A Grand Ole Opry.
887
00:34:39,672 --> 00:34:42,408
And it's an honor to have
him performing tonight
888
00:34:42,444 --> 00:34:45,876
from the stage of
the Grand Ole Opry in Nashville,
889
00:34:45,911 --> 00:34:49,619
singing his original holiday
hit, Counting Down the Days .
890
00:34:49,687 --> 00:34:51,220
Brad Paisley, everyone.
891
00:34:53,723 --> 00:34:55,222
Hey, everybody.
892
00:34:55,257 --> 00:34:56,357
-[Man] Hello, sir.
-How are you guys doing?
893
00:34:57,589 --> 00:35:00,590
Country and Christmas go hand in hand.
894
00:35:00,693 --> 00:35:02,532
I think the reason I'm a Hallmark superfan,
895
00:35:02,634 --> 00:35:03,999
it started gradually.
896
00:35:04,068 --> 00:35:06,100
Like, I started watching
these movies.
897
00:35:06,202 --> 00:35:06,967
You know, I'd be flipping through
898
00:35:07,036 --> 00:35:09,037
and I just realized there were
899
00:35:09,106 --> 00:35:10,368
very few things I wanted
to see otherwise.
900
00:35:10,403 --> 00:35:12,239
And I just kept coming back
to it.
901
00:35:12,274 --> 00:35:13,807
So now I've learned
to just leave it on.
902
00:35:13,909 --> 00:35:15,171
[cheers and applause]
903
00:35:15,306 --> 00:35:16,371
[Brad] Hey, everybody.
904
00:35:16,473 --> 00:35:18,608
Christmas is Hallmark to me.
905
00:35:18,710 --> 00:35:21,579
And I'm so excited
this countdown has begun.
906
00:35:21,681 --> 00:35:24,285
And I'm thrilled to
have a song they're playing
907
00:35:24,321 --> 00:35:26,317
that really is supposed
to make people feel like
908
00:35:26,419 --> 00:35:28,088
they're ready for
this time of year.

We discovered how traditions
are born through joy.
