Sugarplummed

Today on Girls Gone Hallmark, we’re diving into Sugarplummed, one of the newest additions to Hallmark’s Countdown to Christmas lineup. The movie tells the story of Emily, whose wish for a picture-perfect holiday comes to life when a joyful movie character literally steps off the screen to help. But does this magical premise bring the holiday cheer, or is it a little too sweet for its own good? Spoiler alert: it’s another 5-star hit! We’re breaking down the highs, the twists, and why this one absolutely deserves a spot on your holiday movie watchlist.
