To kick off Lifetime’s major holiday programming slated for this year, Melissa Joan Hart will host “It’s A Wonderful Lifetime Preview Special”, which will give viewers a sneak peek at all of the original Christmas movie premieres that are headed to the network starting November 21st.

Hart, who will star in “A Very Nutty Christmas”, isn’t just giving us an inside look at the festive line-up–she’ll be doing it in a clever way that’s a perfect (and classic) nod at the season!

Synopsis: What if Lifetime never made Christmas movies? In this special, hosted by Melissa Joan Hart, we will be taken on a journey that explores how terrible life would be without Lifetime Christmas movies to bring us holiday cheer. Melissa will be visited by the “host” of Lifetime Christmas Past, Present, and Future, and along the way, she will preview the 14 exciting movies that are coming to Lifetime this holiday season. Once this special is over, you won’t be able to imagine a world without the magic of Lifetime Christmas.

“It’s A Wonderful Lifetime Preview Special” airs November 17th at 10pm EST/PST on Lifetime.

Stay merry!
