What is Holiday Unplugged about?
Sally (DeLoach) is an art teacher who has spent 10 years honoring the memory of her late husband, Jake, while raising their two kids, Keegan and Boo. When she finally joins a dating app, she's matched with Damon (Di Pace), a former colleague who once taught her kids' kindergarten class. Jake had co-founded a website that saved family home videos, and when a server move wipes out Sally's videos of him and her phone with the backups breaks, the original tapes are the only hope. To keep the kids from finding out, Sally declares a screen-free Christmas while she and Damon quietly search for the tapes.
When are the Holiday Unplugged encores?
Hallmark Channel lists three encores after the Saturday premiere. The movie airs again on Sunday, November 8, at 6 p.m. ET, on Friday, November 13, at 10 p.m. ET, and on Tuesday, November 17, at 8 p.m. ET.
