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.
