Reviews

The 2020 Winterfest Preview Special received a mixed reception from critics and viewers alike. On IMDb, it holds a rating of 6.2/10, reflecting fans’ appreciation for the festive content and the charismatic hosting by Lacey Chabert. Viewers praised the special for its warm and inviting atmosphere, with many noting that it effectively built excitement for the channel's upcoming holiday movies. As one IMDb reviewer puts it, “A perfect kickoff to the holiday season for Hallmark fans, filled with smiles and holiday cheer.” However, some critics pointed out that the special’s appeal largely depends on the viewer's interest in Hallmark Christmas movies, and those less attuned to the genre might find it somewhat niche or promotional in nature. Rotten Tomatoes does not list a critic score for the special, indicating limited mainstream critical coverage. Overall, it serves its purpose as a festive promotional event, succeeding in delivering holiday joy to its target audience while lacking broader cinematic impact.
