Hallmark's premium streaming service is set to drop this September, and we just got a first look at one of the new programs airing on the platform!
The popular TV network announced the rebranding of Hallmark Movies Now into Hallmark+ on July 11, and folks are thrilled to get new and exclusive content from the actors they love. While there's still some time before the official launch, the channel decided to gift their viewers by revealing their first-ever holiday series. Aptly titled Holidazed, the new TV show will premiere later this year and star an ensemble of actors that include previous Hallmark stars Erin Cahill, Holland Roden, Ian Harding and Academy Award nominee Virginia Madsen.
If that wasn't enough, Hallmark posted a sneak peek at what's to come with a short clip on Instagram. "Embrace the excitement and joy in the #HallmarkPlus limited series #Holidazed," read the official caption on July 25.
When fans of Hallmark learned that the network was working on their first series centered around the holiday season, they immediately shared how thrilled they were about the news.
"This looks so fun!!! 🤩," one person wrote in the comments. "Can’t wait ❤️❤️❤️," another added.
So, what will Holidazed be about? According to a report from TV Insider, the show will focus on six families who all live on the same cul-de-sac. Each group comes with their own cultural background, and they all need to navigate the chaos that comes with the holiday season. As the families interact with one another and embrace each other's traditions, they'll see there are all different kinds of love expressed during the most wonderful time of the year.
As for how the cast feels about being a part of Holidazed, Erin couldn't contain her elation on Instagram.
"Hello, you wonderful ones! I have been busting to announce this new show coming out this fall!" she wrote on July 26. "The show HOLIDAZED will be coming out on #hallmarkplus and I can’t wait for you to see these fantastic episodes! This cast is a DREAM come true and I am just chuffed!"
We'll be sure to subscribe to Hallmark+ in order to see this!
