Latest Episodes:

Twelve Dates 'Til Christmas S1 Ep 3 & 4 Dec 15, 2025

Show notes

We’re officially in deep with Twelve Dates ’Til Christmas Season 1 Episodes 3 & 4, and this series continues to prove it’s one of the most emotionally satisfying shows Hallmark has given us since The Way Home. Mae Whitman remains an absolute standout - grounded, funny, and effortlessly compelling in a way that makes every moment feel earned. We’re also fully invested in the friendship between Mac and Evelyn, which adds so much heart and texture to the story without ever feeling forced. As these episodes peel back more layers, questions start stacking up: what really happened between Callum and Kate, and what does the return of Kate’s mom to Blexford stir up beneath the surface? If you thought this show was just cozy Christmas vibes, think again — it’s doing something deeper, and we’re here for all of it.

Champagne Problems (Netflix) Dec 13, 2025

Show notes

If you’ve stumbled onto Girls Gone Hallmark while Googling Champagne Problems, you might be thinking, “Wait… aren’t these the Hallmark movie review ladies?” And yes - we absolutely are. But every now and then, we like to slip off the Hallmark Channel highway and take a scenic detour into something sparkly, romantic, and just outside the network bubble.
Which brings us to today’s review of the Netflix film Champagne Problems - a festive Parisian tale where Sydney, an executive for an investment group, heads to France to acquire a legendary champagne brand before Christmas, only to have her plans complicated (in the best way) by a charming local who turns out to be the founder’s son. So pop a cork and settle in - let’s santé our way through this movie.

Single on the 25th Dec 11, 2025

Show notes

Girls Gone Hallmark is back with a festive city spin as we unwrap Single on the 25th! This cozy Christmas-in-the-city romance follows a thirty-something spending the holiday solo… until a handsome neighbor turns her quiet December 25th into something a lot more magical. Is this the start of a holiday meet-cute for the ages, or just the universe reminding us that love can show up when we least expect it?

She's Making a List Dec 10, 2025

Show notes

We’re checking our list twice this week as Girls Gone Hallmark dives into She’s Making a List, a movie where Christmas spirit meets corporate compliance in the cutest possible way. When a Naughty-or-Nice inspector shows up to evaluate a little girl’s holiday standing, she definitely isn’t expecting to fall head-over-snowboots for the girl’s widowed dad… or to start questioning every rule in her meticulously color-coded handbook. Will love win out over protocol, or is this one destined for the “nice try” pile? Stars Lacey Chabert and Andrew Walker.

Ripple Episode 1 (Netflix) Dec 10, 2025

Show notes

Welcome to our Ripple Episode 1 review, where your favorite Hallmark movie podcasters take a surprising detour into Netflix territory. Why? Because Ripple was originally developed for Hallmark before finding its home on Netflix - and we couldn’t resist following its journey. In this episode, we break down the premiere, talk through the twists, and share why this darker, character-driven series immediately grabbed our attention.

Show notes

Welcome back to the Balsam Hill House™, where the trees are pre-lit, the stakes are high, and the emotional regulation? Oh honey, that left the chat episodes ago. Episode 7 is the annual “Hallmark said let’s weaponize motherhood” special, where the producers pull every lever they have to make sure the men - and all of us - cry openly. And reader? Mission accomplished.

Twelve Dates 'Til Christmas S1 Ep 1 & 2 Dec 08, 2025

Show notes

If Twelve Dates ’Til Christmas is the future of Hallmark, then sign us up for twelve more seasons. We were instantly obsessed with this fresh, funny, beautifully grounded new series, and these first two episodes showcase a style of storytelling we absolutely love seeing from Hallmark. Kate gets lovingly ambushed into “The Twelve Dates,” a matchmaking program that sends her on a series of charming, cringe-y, and unexpectedly meaningful encounters. From family layers to emotional surprises to a cast we’re already attached to, there is SO much to discuss. Grab your Guinness and let's dig into Twelve Dates 'Til Christmas Season 1 Episodes 1 & 2.
