We're back and ready for another round of Hallmark Christmas crazy! In this extra-extra-long episode (blame it on Hallmark's bloated movie summaries) Erika, Dory, and Mel debate this season's Countdown to Christmas offerings, narrowing the field to the lucky hopefuls that will compete in the 2024 All The Feels Holiday Movie Bracket. We've got Kelces, sexy snowmen, 90s time travel AND a 90s game show host. What more could a Big-City-Girl-with-a-Christmas-Eve-deadline-and-a-hot-but-grumpy-lumberjack-neighbor, want?

It’s hard to believe, but we’ve come to the end of the road (cue the Boyz II Men). In our last episode of the season, Dory, Mel and Erika gather one more time to discuss our final movie matchup, Magic in Mistletoe vs. Christmas on Cherry Lane, and to crown a bracket champion. We had some strong contenders this year. Listen to find out who took the crown! Thank you for joining us this season. We’ll see you in 2024!

This week's Hallmark Bracket movies bring us quaint European towns awash with trolls, woolen stockings, long-lost-family, long-lost-Counts, and LIES! My Norwegian Holiday goes up against A Not So Royal Christmas in this season's second to last match-up - and the ladies of All The Feels are once again divided. Also included are deep thoughts on fate, Christmas body switching, and Brandy in a solar-powered hot air balloon.

Ooooohhh, talk about a match-up! We've got Holiday Road vs Haul Out the Holly: Lit Up. With tons of characters between these two movies, did we love them all or was it overwhelming? Plus, you know what they say about sequels - was Lacey's second installment on Evergreen Lane a hit or a miss? We also reminisce about slumber parties and share a slight case of having OCD while christmas tree decorating!

Match-up number five puts A Merry Scottish Christmas up against Catch Me If You Claus. There's a lot of love for the beauty of Scotland, but the ladies ain't mad at a steamy make-out session either! Plus, we talk turkey, thanksgiving favorite foods, and get a second appearance from Mel's Dad!

It’s hard to believe, but we’re already halfway through this year’s bracket! Mystery on Mistletoe Lane and Christmas Island compete in our fourth matchup of the year, and it’s safe to say that Andrew Walker had us all swooning. But was his charisma enough to help Christmas Island win the weekend? As usual, this episode has lots of movie talk and lots of tangents. Plus, we get a brief appearance by Mel’s dad!

The third bracket match up brings us two movies about friendship, and causes a heated debate for the ages between the ladies of All The Feels. Never Been Chris'd goes up against The Santa Summit - in one we stand united, in the other - divided. Where will you stand when the Christmas dust settles?

It’s our 100th episode! In true All the Feels fashion, we didn’t realize this momentous occasion was upon us, so we had to commemorate it on the fly. Then, Hallmark takes us from an aquarium in Connecticut to a Christmas market in France as Mystic Christmas takes on Joyeux Noel in our second matchup of the season. Thank you for sticking with us for 100 episodes. We would never have made it this far without your support.

The 2023 Hallmark Holiday Movie bracket kicks off with a black & white Christmas-less universe vs. a lot of angst and party planning involving the actual universe. Where Are You, Christmas? goes up against Under the Christmas Sky in a not-so-heated premiere weekend match up - plus, Cher has a new Christmas album! And it's not even Halloween yet! Enjoy your trick-or-treating, and we'll see you back here next week in the full swing of Christmas! *Open - Angels In The Snow (Cher) *Close - Drop To Sleigh Ride (Cher with Tyga)

It's Christmas-time in Hallmark Land which means bring on the bracket! Erika, Dory, and Mel reconvene to examine (scrutinize) this season's crop of Countdown to Christmas offerings, carefully selecting the contenders that will face off in the 2023 All The Feels Holiday Movie Bracket. We've got astronauts and fish friends and trolls and royals and so, so, sooo many road trips. Let the merry shenanigans ensue!

The All The Feels 2023 Holiday Bracket is coming soon! Until then, please enjoy this Christmas in July episode, where Dory, Mel, and Erika chat about A Royal Christmas Crush and Take Me Back for Christmas. This eclectic episode also includes discussions about high school reunions, Barbie, the Hallmark cruise, Taylor Swift, and our favorite comfort show, Sweet Magnolias.

It's a special Summertime Session of All The Feels where Erika, Dory, and Mel gather to touch on their off-season Hallmark viewing, (mainly Mahogany and Mysteries) and how the writer's strike may affect our beloved holiday hallmark season. They also discuss what else they've been enjoying - including a long and passionate deliberation on their latest and greatest off-network obsession - Bravo's Vanderpump Rules (18 min until 40 min mark for those who wish to skip. Thank you for your time and patience.) Recommendations mentioned in episode: Ted Lasso (Apple TV) Never Have I Ever (Netflix) Summer House: Martha's Vineyard (Bravo) A League of Their Own Series (Amazon) Jack Ryan (Amazon) The Diplomat (Netflix) Reacher (Amazon) Tour de France: Unchained (Netflix) Somebody Somewhere (HBO Max) Anita Kelly Books: Love & Other Disasters Something Wild & Wonderful And of course VANDERPUMP RULES! (Bravo & Peacock)

Erika is back just in time for the final match-up of the season - and is teeming with stories of mishaps and maladies from her very special Disney Family Vacation. Then, after a whirlwind of Kwanzaa and latkas and Lisa Loeb, a 2022 Hallmark bracket winner is crowned! In a holiday season full of big swings and surprisingly great movies - the eliminations are a struggle to the bitter end. Whatta year!

Dory and Mel are joined by their friend Lisa to chat about The Most Colorful Time of the Year and The Holiday Sitter, our second to last matchup of the season. Topics discussed in this eclectic episode include Twitter drama, color blindness, chimney mishaps, Jonathan Bennett’s mustache, diversity and inclusion on Hallmark, online dating profiles, Bigfoot, Hallmark’s 2007 Pandemic miniseries, and more. Lots of opinions in this one. Don’t cancel us!

Week 6 is in the books! This episode’s matchup is A Big Fat Family Christmas vs. Undercover Holiday, and Dory and Mel hold down the fort while Erika is away on her own Big Fat Family Christmas vacation. We also discuss the hair bows in A Fabled Holiday, Reese Witherspoon’s 2014 movie The Good Lie, Harry & Meghan’s Netflix docuseries, and more.

Erika is back and ready to take on our fifth Hallmark movie bracket match-up, A Royal Corgi Christmas versus A Holiday Spectacular! We've got stubby corgi legs going up against Rockette high kicks, family drama, deli dreamboats and the most evil dog handler in all the land. Sit back and join the ladies as they spiral over 1950s historical inaccuracies and then plan an elaborate Dollywood vacation. Because it all makes sense.

While Erika is off celebrating an Ohio Thanksgiving, fellow Hallmark-enthusiast Lisa from the Y'all, This Book podcast joins Dory and Mel to break down the MOST! DIFFICULT! MATCH-UP! OF THE SEASON! (So far). Inventing the Christmas Prince takes on Three Wise Men & a Baby, pitting Tamera Mowry-Housley and a horse-drawn carriage against a trifecta of charming Hallmark all-stars with jokes and ballet moves to spare. Who could possibly choose between these two gems?!

It’s official—Lindsay Lohan is back, baby! In this episode, Dory, Mel, and Erika discuss Lindsay’s new holiday movie, Falling for Christmas, our first-ever bracket entry from Netflix! But can LL’s star power help Falling for Christmas knock off Hallmark’s Christmas at the Golden Dragon? The answer might surprise you.

Battling in week two on the holiday movie bracket is Lights, Camera, Christmas! and All Saints Christmas.  While getting into the holiday spirit, the ladies talk New Orleans vibes, Hollywood movie star winks and butt deodorant?! Whaaa?!  Plus, a glowing recommendation on a non bracket flick will have you running to your TV to tune in.

The first bracket match-up of the season is here, where an unexpected Full House alum goes head to head with an American (??) Will Kemp and the magic of London at Christmas. Join us as we discuss the pros and cons (and cons and cons) of a sequel without the Original Recipe romance, and the glory that is Reshma Shetty's green jumpsuit. Plus a short dive into the other premieres of the weekend and a long sidebar into whimsical mailboxes and L.L. Bean culture. That's Garland for you! I guess?

We’re back, baby! In this episode, Dory, Mel, and Erika unveil the 2022 All The Feels Holiday Movie Bracket. Which Hallmark movies will be competing for the top spot? Will Lifetime be back on the bracket after a disappointing showing last year? Is a new network coming for Hallmark’s crown? We have so much to discuss, so pour yourself a cup of hot cocoa, sit back, relax, and join us as we start the holiday season off right.

The final bracket match-up of the season is here and a true Hallmark expert is in the house! Joining the ladies is Bubbly Sesh host Shawl and we have a Dickens! of a time choosing between the sizzling Polaha-D'Orsay chemistry in "A Dickens of a Holiday!" and the charismatic party planning/Queen of Dory's heart Ashley Williams in "Sister Swap: Christmas in the City". Then, in a rapid fire elimination round, Dory, Mel, and Erika crown a 2021 winner. It's a bloodbath, folks.

After swapping out Lifetime movies for Hallmark in the last two bracket battles, Dory, Mel and Erika match up Our Christmas Journey vs Sister Swap: A Hometown Holiday.  Come for the reviews and stay for a hodgepodge of other topics including indoor Christmas tree lots, tap dancing, expired vision boards and a mispronunciation that brings the ladies to tears!

Dory, Mel and Erika assemble once again to discuss their week six bracket matchup, featuring Merry Liddle Christmas Baby vs. Miracle in Motor City. Expect lots of rants and lots of laughs as the ladies are joined by their friend Ryan, who shares his experience as a contestant on Wheel of Fortune and his hopes for one day competing on Survivor.

The first Lifetime match-up of the bracket brings the ladies a ballet dancing widow, fruitcake rebranding woes, and tons of befuddlement, annoyance, and concern about the many Lifetime movies that lay before them. Dancing Through the Snow takes on Baking Spirits Bright, one barely eking out a win to the next round of the All The Feels Christmas Movie Bracket. Other topics include Hallmark's A Kiss Before Christmas, Every Time a Bell Rings, and the onslaught of Hallmark premieres coming up post-Thanksgiving slumber. Also, Adele.

The ladies welcome back friend of the pod, Kevin and together, they battle One December Night vs. A Holiday in Harlem in this week's bracket. Plus there's talks of a cross-country RV trip, applauding representation and an epic Christmas fashion show!

This week’s matchup is Next Stop, Christmas vs. A Christmas Treasure, which both aired on the Hallmark Channel. In this episode, Mel gives us a rant for the ages while Dory and Erika fight about time travel. This is one you don’t want to miss!

It's Round 2 of the All the Feels Holiday movie bracket match up, where Hallmark's Christmas in Harmony and Christmas Sail battle to win our hearts. In a Halloween weekend full of gospel choirs, magical boat parades, lovers to enemies, friends to lovers, Terry O'Quinn, buckets of grief, and 1/3rd of Destiny's Child...the choice proves to be a difficult one. Plus, Dory and Erika discuss their all time favorite Christmas songs, because why the heck not.

We're skipping right past the witches, skeletons, jack o'lanterns and breaking out the reindeer, snowmen and Santas because it's week one of the All The Feels Holiday bracket! We got ex-boyfriends in the form of ghosts battling undercover detectives but only one movie will move ahead. Aaaaaaand, thanks to changing air dates, we already have some revisions to the bracket (ugh!) but we think it actually might be for the best!

It’s the most wonderful time of the year! In this episode, Dory, Mel and Erika reunite to hash out their 2021 All The Feels Holiday Movie Bracket. Will a Hallmark or Lifetime movie will come out on top? Watch along with us to find out!

Something wicked this way comes as the ladies gather pre-Halloween and pre-Christmas kick-off to address all of the drama swirling through the Hallmark-verse. Topics include the Curious Case of the Good Witch finale, the Christmas TV Movie Wars, cheerful anti-vaxxers, and which Hallmark pups are most favored by Dory's dog, Zero. Warning: Two F-bombs are dropped within the first 2-minutes so mark this episode NOT SAFE or FAMILY FRIENDLY for the children.

Our friend Antonio Cayonne is back! In this episode, he joins Dory and Mel to discuss his new movie for Hallmark Movies and Mysteries, The Vows We Keep. The ladies also talk to Antonio about his experience on The Mighty Ducks: Game Changers, diversity and inclusion efforts in the entertainment industry, his growing restaurant businesses, and of course, the burgeoning Christmas TV Movie Wars.

Spring is springing ahead, hope is (hopefully) blooming, and it's the perfect time to return for a warm-weather check in! In this episode, Erika, Dory, and Mel set Hallmark aside to discuss two recent cultural milestones: Oprah's interview with Meghan & Harry, and the Hulu documentary "Framing Britney Spears". Family drama, spirals, and sadness abound...and a bit of Hallmark talk at the end because we all just need a warm Hallmark hug right about now. Oprah with Meghan and Harry: A CBS Primetime Special - https://www.cbs.com/shows/oprah-with-meghan-and-harry-a-cbs-primetime-special/ The New York Times Presents: Framing Britney Spears - https://www.nytimes.com/2021/02/11/insider/framing-britney-spears-faq.html

It's Christmas, (Eve) and the final match-up is here! After Hallmark's Love, Lights, Hanukkah! competes against Lifetime's A Christmas Exchange, a 2020 Holiday Movie Bracket winner is crowned! And man, what a hard, hard choice it is to make in such a truly standout year. Dory, Erika and Mel also discuss highs and lows of the season, Hallmark movies of the past that we just can't get enough of, and the things that are giving us joy outside of the Christmas movie onslaught. Thanks for joining us for another year of bracket madness, see you all on the other side of 2020! WE DID IT!

Our 2020 All The Feels Holiday Movie Bracket Challenge is almost over, and Lifetime gave us two strong contenders this week: The Christmas Setup vs. A Sugar & Spice Holiday. Both movies were groundbreaking in their own ways and both gave us all the feels, but only one could come out on top. Listen now to find out which movie won the weekend in our second to last matchup of the year.

It's Hallmark vs Lifetime in the 6th match-up of the season as Christmas in Evergreen 4 battles Christmas Ever After. On one side, we got our favorite new Hallmark couple in our #1 Christmas town with its (perhaps) magical red truck. And on the other, we have a romance novelist who heads to her favorite Christmas lodge only to see the leading man from her books staring her right in the face! Who will move ahead? Tune in to find out!

Mel returns to the pod after a long journey East, just in time to pit the bananas 90s fever dream Dear Christmas against the strait-laced, Tiger-cruisin' USS Christmas. Mysteries of true love lost versus a podcaster's accidental true love found...which will take the Round 5 crown? Also, a Judds family history lesson, just because. Only three more match-ups left!

Our friend Antonio Cayonne is back again! And this time, he’s here to talk about his first ever LEADING ROLE in a Hallmark movie. In this episode, Dory and Erika chat with Antonio about COVID craziness, our wild presidential election in the States, the strides Hallmark is making to prioritize diversity and inclusion, his part in Christmas in Evergreen: Bells are Ringing, working with his friend and colleague Rukiya Bernard, his experience on the upcoming Mighty Ducks series for Disney+, and so much more. Enjoy!

Dory and Erika are joined by special guest Ryan to review quite possibly the toughest match-up ever!  Listen as A Nashville Christmas Carol goes up against The Christmas House. We talk Christmas magic, a fantasy Judd family Hallmark movie, and trolling Treat Williams on twitter! Who wins this week battle? It was hard to choose, so tune in to find out!

Christmas in Vienna takes on The Christmas Doctor in round 3 of the Holiday Movie match up - and while one of these movies had the ladies in tears, the other just had them wishing for desserts. Wave hello to your nearest symbolic cardinal, abandon your date on the fancy champagne-ferris wheel, and join us for another Christmas movie breakdown!

In this episode, we talk about the never-ending election that was and celebrate our first female VP before getting into our second bracket matchup: The Christmas Yule Blog vs. Never Kiss a Man in a Christmas Sweater. Which of these movies led to a rant of epic proportions? Listen to find out! We also chat about One Royal Holiday, On the 12th Date of Christmas, Holly & Ivy and A Welcome Home Christmas. And if you're over any and all election talk (we get it) skip ahead to 18:49 where we begin our bracket discussion.

As the world burns and the election turns, the Holiday Movie Bracket makes a most triumphant return! It's week one in the bracket match up, in which Hallmark's Jingle Bell Bride takes on Lifetime's Christmas Unwrapped. Week one gifts us rare Alaskan flowers, an evil Cheryl Ladd, and Santa's sexy right hand man. Plus, spirited discussions of other off-bracket offerings - including Netflix's Holidate. Take cover with us in our TV Christmas bubble and we'll ride this week out, together.

Do you hear that?!  Shhhhhh, listen closely.  IT'S THE SOUND OF CHRISTMAS!  Join the ladies as they craft the 2020 All The Feels Holiday Movie Bracket. If you thought last year's Hallmark vs Lifetime bracket was nuts, well just you wait!  We're bringing another channel into the fold. This year, our match-ups include movies on the Hallmark Channel, Lifetime AND Hallmark Movies & Mysteries!  Three channels compete but only one movie will take the crown!

This is a monumental episode for All The Feels - our first ever interview with a Hallmark Hallstar! Endlessly charming actor and activist Antonio Cayonne joins Dory & Mel for an open and honest discussion regarding Hallmark's diversity issue, the exciting addition of CEO Wonya Lucas, the Black Lives Matter movement, and even a smattering of Christmas in Evergreen and Mighty Ducks! We are forever grateful to Antonio for sharing his time, knowledge, and experience with us and hope you all enjoy this conversation as much as we did. Follow Antonio on Instagram: http://www.instagram.com/antoniocayonne/ Check out Antonio's website: http://www.antoniocayonne.com

The Hallmark Podcast Avengers have assembled! In this episode, Dory, Mel, Erika, and our friend Rachel from The Hallmarkies Podcast discuss the latest Hallmark and Lifetime movie news, including Crown Media's new CEO, Wonya Lucas. We also preview Hallmark's highly anticipated "Summer Nights" movie, Wedding Every Weekend, and discuss a bunch of other things that won't fit in this description.

With no Hallmark premieres to cover, Mel, Dory, and Erika continue their discussion on Hallmark's diversity problem, as well as trouble behind the scenes of their new favorite show, Freeform's The Bold Type - and spiral into a symposium on Netflix's Baby-Sitters Club reboot and the beautiful fiery anger of The Chick's latest album, Gaslighter. Plus, more Sweet Magnolias! This episode is a long and winding road to nowhere, but hopefully an enjoyable one?

In this supersized episode, Dory, Mel, and Erika discuss the murder of George Floyd and the Black Lives Matter revolution, Hallmark's problematic response, and how our favorite Hallmark celebs have risen (or failed to rise) to the occasion. Warning: there is a lot of cursing in this one.

It’s nearly June, but the ladies of All The Feels still have Spring fever. In this episode, Mel, Erika and Dory, along with Mel’s new dog, Bones, discuss Hallmark’s 2020 Spring Fling movies: Just My Type, You’re Bacon Me Crazy, Fashionably Yours and Nature of Love.

It's still a national emergency out there, but this week we have a real treat - Erika emerges from maternity leave in a triumphant return to the pod! The ladies are back to discuss pandemic survival, what Hallmark stars would make the ideal partners in quarantine (and which would send us screaming) - plus some very special birthday shoutouts from our soon to be best friends.

This week, Dory and Mel are joined by movie critic and host of the Hallmarkies Podcast, Rachel Wagner. In this episode, the ladies take a trip down memory lane and share some of their favorite older Hallmark movies that you can find on Hallmark Drama or the Hallmark Movies Now app. Be sure to listen to the Hallmarkies podcast for all things Hallmark, and check out Rachel's movie reviews on Rotten Tomatoes.

The plan was for special guest Rachel (from the Hallmarkies podcast) to join Mel & Dory for a deep dive into classic Hallmark...but the ladies can't help but talk pandemic, instead sharing more tips and recommendations that may help bring joy (or at least some sanity) during the world's longest indoor recess. So join us for another round of Surviving Self Isolation! We'll be back to talk more Hallmark next week! We promise this time! Find Rachel and her awesome Hallmark coverage at: https://www.hallmarkiespodcast.com/

It's a national crisis out there, one that not even hours and hours (and hours) of Hallmark can sooth away - but man, are we trying! Mel and Dory gather (remotely)to discuss what is keeping them sane in these trying times. If you want to skip the gloomy current events talk, we get it, jump ahead to about 13:40. Stay safe, everyone!

Dory and Mel finally get it together enough to record from two different states! Another aMAZE-ing Winterfest has come and gone with snow plows and ice caves and strudlefests-galore, and the ladies are ready to discuss it all...while taking some detours into MTV's Total Request Live, cozy murder mysteries, and their own personal Bad Place...a magic show.

THE 2019 HOLIDAY MOVIE BRACKET IS OVER AND WE HAVE A WINNER!!!! The match up may be done but Mel and Dory aren't ready to let go - so they head off bracket to discuss 'A Storybook Christmas', 'Double Holiday', 'Cheerful Christmas', and the bewildering amnesia romp that is 'Christmas on My Mind'.

We made it to the end! Our bracket is (almost) complete. This week, we get into the Great Hallmark Debacle of 2019 and chat about our final bracket matchup. We also share our favorite Lifetime holiday movies of all-time. If you want to get right to the movie discussion, we get it. It's been a rough week. Skip ahead to about 24 minutes in.

The most anticipated event (to us) of the season has finally arrived, as queen and Earth angel Dolly Parton christens Hallmark's Countdown to Christmas in week seven of the Holiday Movie Bracket. "Christmas at Dollywood" takes on Lifetime's "Grounded for Christmas", in a matchup perhaps doomed from the start. Late night sidebars include "A Christmas Love Story", "Mistletoe and Menorahs" and Dory's strong opinion of the musical "Cats". (Warning: If you love Cats...you may want to sit this one out.)

Well, we survived the Thanksgiving week onslaught of movies (barely) and we're exhausted but ready to discuss our 6th bracket matchup. On this episode of the pod, Kelly Rowland in Merry Liddle Christmas takes on Candace Cameron Bure in Christmas Town. We also discuss Dory’s short term memory loss, Black Friday purchases, this year’s bracket frontrunners and which upcoming Hallmark and Lifetime movies we’re most excited for.

The most special of all guest stars joins Mel and Dory for the 5th round on the Hallmark vs. Lifetime holiday bracket...Dory's mom Sheryl is here! 'Christmas Duet' and 'Staging Christmas' are the contenders but the ladies go off bracket to discuss their favorites of the week's glut of Thanksgiving premieres. OUR CORNUCOPIA RUNNETH OVER!! SO MANY MOVIES!! IT'S MADNESS!

It's week four of the holiday movie bracket matchup and Hallmark sequel "Cherished Memories: A Gift to Remember 2" is up against Lifetime's "Christmas 9 to 5", where an investigative reporter goes undercover as a department store retail clerk and why is any of this happening? Because Christmas, is why! Did Darcy & Aiden's love survive post-brain injury? Does Mrs. Henley still love a statement necklace? Will the evil Books! Books! Books! win the day? All will be discussed, and more!

This week, Jana Kramer stars in Lifetime's Christmas in Louisiana, and Chad Michael Murray charms us in Hallmark's Write Before Christmas. Tune in to find out which One Tree Hill alum was victorious in our third bracket matchup of the year.

Picture a Perfect Christmas takes on A Sweet Christmas Romance in week 2 of our 2019 Holiday Bracket Challenge, and Dory, Mel and special guest Meghan had NO feels for one of these contenders! Listen to find out whether Hallmark or Lifetime won the weekend.

Oh what! It's the first match up of the season! Hallmark's "Christmas Scavenger Hunt" takes on the fever dream that is Lifetime's "Christmas Reservations", and one network claims the inaugural win! Plus, Dory & Mel & Mel's roommate Clyde can't help but share their thoughts on random acts of Bollywood, bubble guts after 30, and the new Hallmark classic that made us cry all the tears - "Two Turtle Doves".

For the first time ever, Mel and Dory create the 2019 Countdown to Christmas movie bracket live! on air! In a podcast! Follow along as we pour over the line up, pick our favorite contenders, and discover what's in store for all of us this holiday season. Plus, this year's bracket will be unlike any we've had before! Tune in for the shocking reveal!

We may be in the dog days of summer but Dory, Mel, and Erika are in a June Wedding state of mind as they gather to discuss their mid-season favorites. "The Last Bridesmaid", "Sister of the Bride" and "Love, Take Two" are on the agenda, along with the instagram lives of Hallmark Celebs, an irrationally-early Countdown to Christmas preview, and the ladies' undying devotion to our queen Dolly Parton.

Mel, Dory, and Erika are back with a supersized super bloom episode! Spring Fever is in the air as the girls gather to discuss the contagion-level charm of Sara Rue, the bizarre ad campaign surrounding "Bottled With Love" and, alas, the Lori of it all. How did Hope Valley bounce back from the fall of their Hallmark Khaleesi? Will the Hallmark Mothership ever forgive? Can Easter ever truly be sexy, even with Brendan Penny's smoldering appeal? Join us for all this, and so, so, sooo much more! (Side note: The article Mel mentions is from The Atlantic - "What The College-Admissions Scandal Reveals: They Had It Coming" by Caitlin Flanagan)

Dory, Erika and friend of the pod, Meghan discuss all five Winterfest movies and we have some questions....Why would a princess give up her royal lifestyle? Why would a teacher retire in the middle of the school year? And the biggest head scratcher of all - how the hell do you sleep in an ice castle!?!

With the final match-up, the ladies break out the Hallmark crown and declare the winner of the 2018 Countdown to Christmas bracket! Listen as Dory reveals her tweets from those in the Hallmark inner circle, Erika confesses her OCD on tablescaping and Mel talks about her plans for juicing in the new year!

We're almost done making our way through our 2018 bracket, and what a journey it's been. This week, Lori Loughlin stars in "Homegrown Christmas" and Jennifer Finnigan is our heroine in "Welcome to Christmas." Did we swoon over the story of a successful fashion designer's second chance at love? Or did the quirky characters inhabiting a town called Christmas give us all the feels? Special guest Colin helps Dory, Erika and Mel break it down.

The Countdown to Christmas match-up is heating up! Time to stop and smell the pine needles and join the ladies as they pit the magical charm of Jen Lilley against the plucky charisma of Jerrika Hinton to crown a 6th-round winner! (...but mostly they spiral about internet dating because dating app plotlines are VERY triggering.)

The ladies are joined by special guest Josh aka Dory's boss for the battle between 90's sitcom daughters DJ Tanner and Ashley Banks. They talk ice fishing, Squishies (apparently, it's the latest kids craze) and Hallmark Channel commercial breaks that are even sadder than the movies themselves.

In our fourth matchup of the season, "Christmas at the Palace" goes head-to-head with "Reunited at Christmas". This episode has everything: parade crashers, bracket shake-ups, Grinch Kings, plagues and a tension-filled selection of the winner that will have you on the edge of your seat.

Very special guest Kevin joins the ladies for the round 3 bracket match up - in which an American Idol alum, armed with the vocal range of Dolly and the music of Elvis, goes toe to toe with...a magical snowglobe. Sigh. Join us as a round 3 winner is picked, Elvis conspiracy theories are unpacked, and the origin story of Happy the Dog is (finally!) revealed.

Our round two matchup was one for the books. Brooke D'Orsay, aka Miss Christmas, took on LeAnn Rimes, who made her Hallmark debut. Who came out on top? The singing superintendent, or the wreath-making, Kringle baking HR executive? Listen to find out!

Hark! The first 2018 bracket match up is upon us! Erika, Dory, and Mel assemble to pit "Christmas Joy" against "Road to Christmas". The contenders come out swinging, introducing the world to cookie crawls, snowman relays and puppy parties with your 'business partner" - confusion is had, ramblings occur, and one movie lives to fight another day. Rejoice! Check out www.facebook.com/allthefeelspodcast to join us in our Countdown to Christmas match up!

Dory and Mel gather to discuss the 2018 Fall Harvest offerings and tumble down a plot hole filled with corn mazes, horse women, and small-town bachelor bake-offs...plus more apple picking than your heart can dream of. Grab your favorite pair of Versace jeans and join us!

After a looong summer hiatus the ladies are back with a Very! Special! Episode! Joining us are Garrett Frawley and Brian Turner - the writers of our first ever bracket winner, the adorable 'My Christmas Love' - as well as seasonal treasures Santa Baby, Santa Baby 2, and Snowglobe. For years we have wondered what goes on inside the Hallmark brain trust - and now, for the first time ever, we get a glimpse behind the curtain of what it takes to bring a Hallmark Christmas fantasy to life!

Wedding bells are still ringing in July as Dory and Erika share their thoughts on Hallmark's June Wedding movies. On the docket are two sequels, movie #4 of The Wedding March saga and two more flicks including one about a runaway bride who's a chocolatier that's allergic to...chocolate?! Don't worry, Mel shares her thoughts from afar so pour yourself some wedding bubbly as we try to make sense of it all!

The ladies offer their congratulations to the new Duke and Duchess of Sussex by fawning over the Lifetime movie inspired by their love story, and of course, the royal wedding itself. They also chat about the year's other most important wedding — Erika's!

Deep in the valley of Los Angeles, at a Hyatt fit for a Hallmark royal, Dory and Mel convene post-Erika wedding to talk all things Spring Fever! Up for discussion: The Sweetest Heart (cupcakes!) Royal Matchmaker (sexy valets!) and Home By Spring (so many brunch jokes!). The Fever may be over, but the lingering cough of love still remains in our hearts. (Does that even make sense?)

You know those people who keep their Christmas trees up until well after Valentine's Day? Yep, that's us! Sorry for the delay, but as they say, life happens. Check out this episode from the archives, where the ladies wrap up Hallmark's Countdown to Christmas and touch on Winterfest, with a sprinkle of Lifetime and a dash of Netflix thrown in.

With sixteen movies watched and reviewed, the ladies declare the winner of the 2017 Countdown to Christmas bracket! Mel also brings along a "surprise guest" and the gals feast on some sweet treats while diving deep into the Hallmark movie vault to remember their all-time favs!

Erika, Dory, and Mel fight to shake off an unexpected Hallmark fatigue as they gather to discuss anything but the latest bracket match-up. But the ladies persist, a round 7 winner is chosen, two exciting books are sampled, and the burning question of "who the heck is Dave Koz anyway?!" is thankfully answered. Let's get ready to ramble!

Real men watch Hallmark! The ladies welcome special guest Kevin to weigh in on the latest bracket match-up and discuss watching Hallmark movies with Dad, awkward movie extras, and even request a paternity test for a cow!

The most anticipated match up of the season is upon us! Two Tanners enter the ring, but only one emerges victorious! Will it be the twinning CCB? Or will it be the forever-middle-sister in our hearts, Jodie Sweetin? Buckets of jolly rain down on us all as we discuss these two precious Hallmark gifts.

Erika, Dory and Mel gather post-Thanksgiving feast to discuss two more bracket contenders - With Love, Christmas and The Mistletoe Inn. The ladies revel in the most dastardly Hallmark ex-boyfriend ever and break down a now-infamous ice skating scene with Kevin Costner-in-JFK-level intensity.

Our Countdown to Christmas round 3 matchup is on, and the ladies are joined by Dory's roomie Kat to discuss creepy Hallmark heroes, Danica McKellar's hair, product placement, statement necklaces, the Beyonce of our podcasting trio and so much more!

The brackets heat up as the battle between Lacey's gingerbread skills and the PenaVega's triple-threat charm leave the girls at odds over who will win the day. But one thing is certain - when grown adults share a passionate moment while mounting carousel horses - everybody loses. Check out www.facebook.com/allthefeelspodcast to join us in our Countdown to Christmas match up!

The first 2017 bracket match up is upon us as Erika, Dory, and Mel pit "Christmas Festival of Ice" against "Miss Christmas". One contender leaves us cold, bitter, and questioning life choices - while another causes some major feels (and an overuse of the word "authentic"). In the end, a first-round winner emerges, the spirit of the season prevails, and a small Christmas town rejoices!

It's the most wonderful time of the year! Mel, Erika and Dory assemble to unveil this year's official holiday bracket. The ladies also give a quick wrap up of the Fall Harvest movies and introduce the season's first scented candle.

In this very special episode, Dory, Mel, and murder-expert Meghan delve into their second-favorite Hallmark Channel, Hallmark Movies & Mysteries! We got your Aurora Teagardens, your Murder She Baked, the glorious Garage Sale Mysteries, and enough plucky amateur sleuthing to annoy every small town police force.

Erika, Mel and Dory talk all things fall harvest and somehow manage to jinx the Cleveland Indians in the process.

Take a journey back in time with Mel and her sidekicks Erika and Dory, as the ladies unveil a long lost June Weddings podcast.

'The Art of Us' and 'All For Love' are on the docket as Dory, Mel, and Erika reunite to profess our adoration for the goddess Sara Rue, pocket spanx and the “Hallmark Bridal Collection”, yikes! We also kick off June Weddings with a breakdown of 'Destination Wedding' that even Franck would approve of. It’s good to be back!

After a looooong break, Dory and Erika return to share some exciting personal news, introduce a new member of the All the Feels family and of course, discuss a few Spring Fling movies. (Love at First Bark! Moonlight in Vermont!)

Mel makes her triumphant return to the pod and she a Dory do a rapid-fire (that's not so rapid) breakdown of this year's Valentine's Day movies. Plus, Mel drops a bombshell on Dory that sends her REELING.

Aaaaaaaand we're back! While Mel continues her adventure in the wilds of Montana, Dory and Erika are joined by special guest Takara. The ladies discuss Hallmark's final Winterfest movie (over a month after it premiered) and take on some unchartered territory with a... LIFETIME MOVIE!

With Mel off living her very own Hallmark movie in Montana, friend of the pod Erika joins Dory to break down the first two movies of Winterfest: Love on Ice and A Royal Winter. The holiday season may be over, but Hallmark is still firing on all cylinders and the ladies have A LOT to say!

As the Countdown to Christmas comes to a close, special guest Erika joins Mel and Dory to bid adieu to 2016 and welcome the new year. In this episode, the ladies (finally) crown a bracket winner, take a deep dive into all things Rose Parade and get excited for Winterfest!

As the season comes to a head, we reach the crowning moment of our Hallmark brackets - the final match up! Special guest Erika joins Mel & Dory to tackle "My Christmas Love" vs. "Sleigh Bells Ring". The girls pick their favorites of the year, and as snow settles across a quaint holiday village on a soundstage in Canada, a 2016 Hallmark Countdown to Christmas victor is chosen! (Well...almost...)

Special Guest Meghan rejoins the girls for a champagne-fueled discussion of “A Nutcracker Christmas” and “Love You Like Christmas”. The competition is fierce, feels are had, and a frontrunner is declared!

So…a woman wishes her husband away…and wakes up a successful boss lady? Mel and Dory try to claw their way out of a feminist spiral when “A Dream of Christmas” goes up against “Looks Like Christmas”. Can the modern woman have it all? Can two single parents find love? Does the type of Christmas tree really make a difference? None of these questions are answered…and more!

A time traveling woodshed vs. a 100-year old fruitcake - the Hallmark Channel outdoes itself again! Mel & Dory review the latest contenders as "Broadcasting Christmas" and "Journey Back to Christmas" vie for a place in our hearts. Grab your favorite bedroom slippers and join us aboard this Christmas Comet...of crazy.

It's Thanksgiving week and The Hallmark Channel has blessed the world with five nights of movie premieres! In this episode, two of these new holiday classics square off: Christmas in Homestead and Christmas List. Mel and Dory also discuss the Macy's Thanksgiving Day Parade, holiday travel drama, real life Christmas towns and late night trips to Walmart.

The Hallmark Christmas Bracket heats up, pitting "My Christmas Dream" head to head against "A December Bride." Special guest Meghan teams up with Mel & Dory as the girls hash out the feels, admire Danica McKellar's math skills, and recall some epic weddings of yore.

It's round two in Mel & Dory's Countdown to Christmas bracket challenge - as two more Hallmark offerings are pitted against each other in a March Madness-style fight for the Yuletide crown. This week, two Christmas towns turn on the charm to save the soul of a Grinch. Which will succeed?! (Spoiler...both. The answer is both.)

With the season's first victory on the line, our opening Hallmark bracket competitors face off - Jamie King versus a secret baby, oh my! Mel and Dory also call upon the magic of Christmas to ward off their post-election blues. Our Hallmark brackets can be found on our facebook page: https://www.facebook.com/allthefeelspodcast/

In the inaugural Hallmark movie fancast, Dory and Mel take on the first of the holiday season offerings - Lacey Chabert's "A Wish for Christmas". Did this year's Countdown kickoff with a bang, or a whimper? Will Lacey maintain her MVP status? We'll be the judge...and jury...and, santa-cutioner? Yikes. We also unleash the full fury of our hallmark movie fandom, so grab your most beloved scented candle and take cover!
