Move over, pumpkin spice season. Hallmark Channel is already pouring out the hot cocoa!

The network announced the lineup for its 16th annual Countdown to Christmas slate, which officially comes down the chimney on Friday, Oct. 17 with Mistletoe Murders Season 1’s Hallmark Channel debut. The first of Hallmark’s festive new films, A Royal Montana Christmas starring Fiona Gubelmann and Warren Christie, premieres on Saturday, Oct. 18.

Exciting new film additions include Hallmark and the NFL’s second collaboration on Holiday Touchdown: A Bills Love Story, My Secret Valentine stars Lacey Chabert and Andrew Walker reuniting in She’s Making a List, and Wes Brown and Ginna Claire Mason starring alongside each other in A Newport Christmas. Brown told DECIDER this summer that he and Mason had “a great time” filming “such a beautiful movie.”

“Our director and producers did a great job putting it together. It’s got some really unique characteristics to it,” he shared at the time. “Obviously, Christmas is in there, but the way it goes from the late 1800s to the time travel element, which is super fun to make that one.”

Not to mention there are new holiday series in store, as well as the return of the reality competition series Finding Mr. Christmas.
