The holiday family film stars Haylie Duff (“7th Heaven,” “Napoleon Dynamite”) and Antonio Cupo (“Bomb Girls,” “Elegy,” “Love At The Thanksgiving Day Parade”). “Hats Off To Christmas!” is part of Hallmark Channel's annual COUNTDOWN TO CHRISTMAS, the #1 most treasured holiday destination by television viewers. Mia (Duff), the loyal and hard-working manager of her small town’s Christmas hat shop, is blindsided when her boss of over ten years asks her to train his son, Nick (Cupo), for a vacant upper-management position that Mia had been coveting. Although Nick is a handsome, successful New York City business consultant, Mia finds training him frustrating until Nick takes an interest in Mia’s son Scotty (Sean Michael Kyer, “Girl in Progress,” “The Color of Rain”), helping Scotty with a pumpkin carving contest. However, Mia’s faith in Nick quickly diminishes when Nick fails to show up at the contest. To protect her son from further disappointment, Mia tries to keep Nick out of her and Scotty’s fragile life, and Nick must decide if staying in the small town of Wilsonville is worth giving up the big-city perks he once had in New York. As Mia struggles to find a way to convince Scotty to return to physical therapy so he can walk again, she soon realizes that Nick may be the Christmas miracle she has been waiting for. “Hats Off To Christmas!” is a Borderline Distribution/Lighthouse Pictures Production.

It seemed more like two months. At times, even two weeks. Why? Because even though I have worked in TV for more than three decades, I have never seen our industry undergo such extraordinary — and extraordinarily exciting — changes as it has in recent years. Everywhere you turn, the vanguard is disrupting the old guard with an astonishing new technology, an amazing new show, an inspired new way to structure a business deal. This is not to imply that the more established segments of our industry have been pushed aside. On the contrary, the broadcast and cable networks continue to produce terrific work that is heralded by critics and rewarded each year at the Emmys. And broadcast networks still command the largest viewing audience across all of their platforms. With our medium thriving as never before, this is a great time to work in television, and a great time to be part of the Television Academy. Consider the 65th Emmy Awards. The CBS telecast, hosted by the always-entertaining Neil Patrick Harris, drew our largest audience since 2005.

  • Jessica Biel
    Jessica Biel Jessica Biel is a Hollywood sex symbol: Every guy dreams about her, and every women dreams of looking like her. Born on March 3, 1982, she always had an interest in all things theatrical, taking voice and dance lessons as a child. At age 11, she took part in a modeling competition and won an acting scholarship for a school in Los Angeles. She landed her breakout role on the family drama 7th Heaven, playing Mary Camden. She then appeared in films like Ulee’s Gold and I’ll Be Home for Christmas. After a year of college, she went back to L.A. to focus on acting, nabbing roles in Summer Catch, Rules of Attraction, Texas Chainsaw Massacre, Blade: Trinity, Stealth, I Now Pronounce You Chuck and Larry, Valentine’s Day, and Hitchcock. Off-camera, the actress supports numerous social causes, and most recently, she used her celebrity status to help turn the spotlight on the global water crisis. At the start of her career, Jessica Biel dated Adam LaVorgna, who she met on the set of I’ll Be Home for Christmas. The young famous couple made it work for three years before they split. She started dating Chris Evans in 2004, and soon after their celebrity break-up, she was spotted spending a lot of time with baseball player Derek Jeter. Although they only lasted a year, they sure did look good together! Then, the beautiful brunette broke all our hearts and took Justin Timberlake off the market. They started dating in 2007 and got hitched in Italy in October 2012.
