‘Christmas at Dollywood’ Preview & More
Tonight, Christmas at Dollywood airs on December 8 at 8 p.m. Eastern, starring Danica McKellar, Niall Matter, and Dolly Parton.
The synopsis reads: “In the film, Rachel Lewis (McKellar) is a single mom and award-winning Broadway producer who learns investors have mismanaged her latest theatrical — a holiday extravaganza — into bankruptcy, forcing the show to close before it even opens. Dismayed, Rachel’s friend calls from Tennessee to tell her about an opportunity to produce a show for the 20th anniversary of the Smoky Mountain Christmas Festival at Dollywood. The only caveat? Rachel will have to work with Luke Hakman, Dollywood’s entertainment director who sees the holiday show as a stepping stone to become the park’s new general manager. As the pair make compromises to please their boss, Rachel and Luke realize love can come in the most unexpected of places.”
Here’s a sneak peek:

Hallmark Movies Now Does Not Live Stream 2019 Movies
If you’re interested in streaming Christmas at Dollywood, please note that Hallmark Movies Now is a great streaming service for Hallmark Christmas movies, but the service does not provide a live stream for Hallmark Channel’s 2019 movies or Hallmark Movies & Mysteries’ 2019 movies.
On Facebook, one viewer asked if the Countdown to Christmas movies would be available on Hallmark Movies Now. The page answered: “While HMN will have its own set of Christmas movies, exclusive to the service, the new 2019 Christmas movies will only be available on our cable channels.”
So if you’re wanting to watch the movie online tonight, you’ll need to try one of the other options listed earlier in this story.
