Tonight is the TV movie Melt My Heart This Christmas on Hallmark at 8/7c. Holly, a passionate glassblower, secretly displays her own art under a pseudonym while assisting a legendary glassblower to help Jack at a Christmas Fair. Starring Laura Vandervoort and Stephen Huszar.
 
Tonight is the TV movie Second Guessing Fate on The CW at 8/7c. Gemma (Danielle Panabaker) is a successful event planner with a full life. She has pretty much given up on dating until a fortune teller mysteriously shows up at one of her perfectly planned parties and predicts that Gemma is one last horrible date away from true love. When Gemma goes on what she hopes is her last blind date with Nick (Corey Sevier), anything and everything goes wrong, including crashing her car into a handsome wealthy stranger, Enzo (Brendan Morgan). When the fortune teller’s predictions start to materialize, once cynical Gemma is ready to take a leap of faith. But is Gemma misreading the signs? Only fate knows what’s in store for her. Jocelyn Chugg and Ari Rombough also star.
 
Tonight is the 70-minute special, Chris Hemsworth: A Road Trip to Remember, on NGC at 9/8c. Chris Hemsworth turns the spotlight away from himself and toward his father, Craig, who was diagnosed with Alzheimer’s; Chris designs a road trip back in time, revisiting key places from their past to explore the science of social connection.
 
Tonight is the feature film The Great Escaper on PBS at 9/8c. The film tells the true story of Bernard Jordan (Michael Caine) who made global headlines in the summer of 2014. He had staged a “great escape” from his care home to join fellow war veterans on a beach in Normandy, commemorating their fallen comrades at the D-Day Landings 70th anniversary. It was a story that captured the imagination of the world as Bernie embodied the defiant, “can-do” spirit of a generation that was fast disappearing. But of course, it wasn’t the whole story. It was an inspirational but sanitized retelling of one man’s need to come to terms with the lasting trauma of war. Bernie’s adventure, spanning a mere 48 hours, also marked the culmination of his 60- year marriage to Rene (Glenda Jackson). The Great Escaper celebrates their enduring love but always with an eye to the lessons we might learn from the Greatest Generation.

Overnight was the film The Baltimorons on AMC+ & Sundance Now. On Christmas Eve in Baltimore, recovering comedian Cliff cracks a tooth and ends up visiting Didi, a no-nonsense dentist who reluctantly agrees to treat him. What begins as a quick fix turns into an unexpected night of obscure landmarks, impromptu misadventures and unlikely companionship. As the duo navigates the city’s quirks, the holiday chaos and emotional baggage they carry lead them both toward connection, hope and perhaps a new start. Cast: Michael Strassner, Liz Larsen, Olivia Luccardi, Chris Strassner, Lewis Peterson.
 
Overnight was the documentary film The Stringer: The Man Who Took The Photo on Netflix. This documentary tracks a two-year investigation into the authorship of one of the most iconic photographs of the Vietnam War — the image known as “Napalm Girl.” A former Saigon photo-editor reveals a 52-year-old secret and a forgotten freelance photographer (a “stringer”) emerges, raising questions about whether the true credit has been assigned. The film explores themes of journalistic ethics, historical memory, and the legacy of press photography.
 
Tonight is the TV movie The Snow Must Go On on Hallmark at 6/5c. Isaiah Heyward (Corey Cott) last appeared on Broadway almost 10 years ago. Since then, getting back on Broadway has been a challenge. To escape the grind of the city and re-evaluate his life, Isaiah visits his sister, Jess, and teenage niece, Aurora, in upstate New York for the holidays. But his yuletide respite is interrupted when he learns Aurora’s high school may have to cancel their annual Christmas musical because they can’t find a director. With a nudge from Aurora and the school’s guidance counselor, Lilly-Anne Brigente (Heather Hemmens), Isaiah decides to save the Christmas show and jumps in as director. Isaiah’s situation gets a little more complicated when he learns that an influential Broadway producer’s daughter is in the school production, so Isaiah decides to cast himself as the lead in order to land a part in an upcoming Broadway show. But while the curtain rises on rehearsals and the Christmas Eve opening night fast approaches, Isaiah finds some Christmas surprises of his own, as he stumbles upon an unexpected romance with Lilly-Anne, creates an unanticipated bond with his students, reassesses his priorities and ultimately discovers that the greatest holiday gift is found when love, family, and friendship take centerstage.
 
Tonight is the TV movie The Christmas Spark on Great American Family at 8/7c. At Christmastime, a passed-over corporate lawyer (Mario Lopez) volunteers to join a small town fire-department as he competes with a fallen hero’s son and unexpectedly begins to find a spark with a widowed local mom (Ali Cobrin) — all against the backdrop of holiday cheer, community challenges and second chances.
 
Tonight is the TV movie The More The Merrier on Hallmark at 8/7c. Alice (Rachel Boston), an emergency room doctor at a small, rural hospital, always volunteers to work the Christmas Eve overnight shift and goes the extra mile to make the holiday merry and bright for patients and staff. When the hospital gets snowed in, Alice and Brian (Brendan Penny), the newly hired top-rated cardiologist, find themselves in the middle of a bona fide baby boom when three women – including the only OBGYN for miles around – go into labor on the rarest birthday of the year. As they team up to bring these bundles of joy into the world as the night wears on, Alice, Brian and the rest of the staff also work hard to make the holiday feel festive for all the patients. Though they may have different approaches to medicine – and to life – there’s a spark between them and by the end of their shift it’s clear that this may be the Christmas Eve that changes them both forever.
