Career broadcaster Melissa Merry (Alison Sweeney) and ex NFL footballer Brian Bright (Marc Blucas) co-host the top-rated morning talk show in the country, and to their viewers they are a perfectly amiable duo in front of the cameras.
However,
behind the scenes there is great animosity caused by a clash of styles, Mel is
a meticulous planner and Brian likes to wing it.
Another
difference was that she loves Christmas while he doesn’t celebrate it at all,
but despite the differences Mel made it work, so when she is told, Brian has
asked to leave the show after the live Christmas Eve Broadcast, she is stunned.
However,
she is even more shocked to find out that their normal annual one-off show has
been extended to a week culminating on Christmas Eve with a primetime special
in the town of Mistletoe.
The series
of shows during that week are intended to highlight the town's Christmas
traditions but as they progress through a Christmas list of seasonal
activities, they find themselves changing the way they view each other,
professionally and personally.
But the
arrival of his girlfriend Christy (Kat Ruston) looks set to quash any budding
romance and there is still Brian’s new job looming on the horizon.
