Kind of wish I'd waited to watch this or it had aired later. First because early November is way too early for a Christmas movie, but it's Frank's so I had to see it. And second because I kind of didn't appreciate what made it sort of unique until I'd watched about a dozen more Hallmark movies that are almost identical.

Fun and refreshing, and maybe literally the only Hallmark movie where I could tell you the story if you fed me the title.
749628, correct

it probably doesn't help Frank's algorithms, but I had it on my DVR for a month because I just can't do Christmas before Thanksgiving (hence, Stella)
749629, I'm pretty sure DVR recordings help, actually!

I also think Hallmark understands that ratings tend to be a little lower that early in November, that the numbers don't really pick up until Thanksgiving and after-- but I was told the numbers were really strong for the weekend it came out (we actually outperformed the Saturday movie, from what I understand-- which never happens!).

And regardless of when you guys watched, I'm always grateful-- and grateful for the positive feedback. Hopefully the new movies I get on the air next year will air a little closer to Thanksgiving for those prime slots-- I've got one in the works I'm feeling really confident will be pushed hard by the channel, so fingers crossed!
749633, Congrats
