What is Holidased If?

Hallmark’s first ever holiday series follows six families from different backgrounds, cultures and generations, all living on the same cul-de-sac, as they celebrate the chaos and joy of the holidays with a family that is distinctly theirs. During a time when emotions run high, families and neighbors comically and lovingly come together to celebrate their traditions—and eccentricities—which ultimately helps them discover what they have in common: LOVE in all its different forms.

“Our Christmas films are a beloved annual tradition for tens of millions of viewers, making us synonymous with the most joyous time of the year,” said Lisa Hamilton DalyHallmark Media’s program manager. “When Gina Matthews and Grant Scharbo come to us with Holidasedwe knew it was time to enter the limited series space – the characters are complex yet relatable and the story they tell about these families is filled with humor and heart, which fits perfectly with the Hallmark brand.”
