Hallmark Channel is already the place to go for holiday movies with Countdown to Christmas, and it’s now expanding into holiday series. The first of its kind, Holidazed, will be debuting later this year, exclusively on Hallmark+, and it features quite a few big names. But who is in the Holidazed cast?

The show will feature six families, each with distinct backgrounds, cultures, and ideas of what the perfect holiday season looks like, all living in the same neighborhood. The show is meant to showcase the different kinds of family traditions that make up the holidays and how the most important connecting thread we have with each other, despite the things we might never agree on, is actually love. It will be set during the Christmas holidays.

McGinley, the Lin Family, including Lucille Soong and Osric Chau, the Woods Family, including Rachelle Lefevre and Lindy Booth, the Hill Family including Ian Harding and Erin Cahill and the Camarena Family, which includes Noemi Gonzalez.
Holidazed will at first stream exclusively on Hallmark’s new streaming service, Hallmark+, which was announced during the Summer Television Critics Association Tour. The new service is set to be released in September and will cost $8 per month or $80 per year. It is set to include everything that is now in Hallmark Movies Now as well as other perks, including monthly $5 coupons for Hallmark Gold Crown Stores, free greeting cards, exclusive access to Hallmark live experiences (like cruises and meet and greets), and gifts (including exclusive Hallmark Christmas ornaments.)

Shows premiering on Hallmark+, include Holidazed and reality programming such as Celebrations with Lacey Chabert, and Finding Mr. Christmas, a reality show that searches for the next Hallmark hunk, as well as an adaptation of K.J. Dell Antonia’s novel The Chicken Sisters. All the shows will make their way to linear after some time, though there isn’t a set date for Holidazed’s debut on the streaming service or Hallmark Channel yet.
