Sometimes, television shamelessly copies Hollywood. If that gets under your skin, there are a few of the movies you'll want to stay away from, like A Timeless Christmas - which is total copy of Kate & Leopold. Those of you who don't mind and want to see a repeat of the highly romantic Hugh Jackman and Meg Ryan movie, during a Christmas setting, will love it.
From the turn of the century (no, kids, not 2000), comes a man who has a passion for the future and futuristic inventions. He's reluctant to get married, even though it's his duty, and through a magical clock, he gets transported 117 years in the future. Just stop counting the similarities now; your hand will get a cramp.
He's reunited with his family home but is puzzled and disturbed to find it is now a tourist attraction. The woman who heads the tours is modern, independent, career-driven, and she doesn't believe he's from the past. Seriously, folks - stop listing all the copies from Kate & Leopold and just enjoy the Hallmark. With some familiar Hallmark faces, like Erin Cahill, Ryan Paevey, Brandi Alexander, and Zahf Paroo, you'll be in for an entertaining flick. Especially if you've never seen the Hugh Jackman version.
