Episode 1
The Search for Mr. Christmas
Mon, Oct 27, 202542 mins
The ten guys vying to be the second Mr. Christmas, who will be the lead in a Hallmark holiday movie, arrive at the house, meet the other nine, and introduce themselves to the viewing audience. The acting experience of the ten ranges from one who has a over a decade of acting work in minor roles, to a few who have no acting experience whatsoever. For the Festive Faceoff, Jonathan and Melissa want to see their personality shine in they being asked to personalize a Santa outfit which they will unveil, acting personality and all, in front of the judges and the other contestants. The winner of the Festive Faceoff will get an advantage leading into the Star Quality Challenge, which they, in pairs, will act with Hallmark star, guest judge Janel Parrish, in a traditional meet cute, the two contestants who are somewhat adversaries in getting Janel's character's attention. The added twist is that they only have one take, they needing to go with the flow if anything goes awry, which if it does happen will probably be related to them needing to ski at the same time, some who have never skied in their lives.
Episode 2
Reindeer Games
Mon, Nov 3, 202542 mins
For the Festive Faceoff, the nine remaining guys will work in three teams of three to move a stack of wrapped Christmas gifts into Santa's sleigh, the team that gets the most in the sleigh the collective winners. The catch?: they can only move them via a slingshot, two to hold the slingshot ends to act as its frame, with the third handling the actual wrapped gifts to propel them from the pouch. In the Star Quality challenge, the guys move from last week's acting challenge to a photo shoot which those with modeling experience should have an advantage. However with most modeling jobs, the model is usually supposed to be a blank canvass, whereas in this shoot, each guy is to a portray one of Santa's reindeers each with a very distinct personality which should come through. The guys will find that beyond showing that personality, they will have an extra issue in the actual locale of the shoot.
Episode 3
Riding Into Romance
Mon, Nov 10, 202542 mins
The guys are beginning to understand that one small mistake could mean the end of their journey as being on top one week does not necessarily mean that they can't be in the bottom the following week. For the Festive Faceoff, they are provided the basic structure and all the accountrements in being asked to decorate a gingerbread house, both the craft of the decoration and the story behind the decoration to show another side of their personality the criterion used in judging. And for the Star Quality challenge, they are again thrown into an acting scene, this time with Hallmark star Alison Sweeney. While as usual they need to connect with her in the scene, it is another "actor" in the scene which may be the most challenging aspect of what they are asked to do.
Episode 4
A Very Merry Talent Show
Mon, Nov 17, 202542 mins
The guys will have to battle an icy hill in the Festive Faceoff. The uphill portion, which they will have to tackle three times to succeed, ends up being much slipperier than they had imagined. They will then enter into a pageant for the Star Quality Challenge, they competing in two separate but equally important components of pageants, a talent portion and the proverbial "world peace" question portion. The pageant will demonstrate just how important the Hallmark fan base is to the competition and to Hallmark as a company. The winner of a Festive Faceoff usually receives an advantage going into the Star Quality Challenge, this week's winner who receives a reward wielding a great deal of power.
Episode 5
Christmas on Main Street
42 mins
The guys have another physical challenge for the Festive Faceoff in they each needing to knock down six Christmas trees, the winner being the one who does so the fastest. The catches?: they must knock down only those color coded as their own with any that they knock down of a competitor counting as one for said competitor, and they are moving around the course within a giant clear plastic Christmas ornament. And they have another acting scene for the Star Quality Challenge, this time acting alongside Hallmark star Hunter King. However, it will be a group scene with three of them not only acting together, but, given a basic script, they must also choose among themselves who will play which character, block out the scene within a set, and convey their intentions to Hunter beforehand.
Episode 6
The Holi-Date
42 mins
The guys have to channel their best rendition of the traditional carol "Silent Night" for the Festive Faceoff. Individually, they will enter a silent room where they have to place a sack full of Christmas gifts under the Christmas tree on the far side of the room proverbially on Christmas Eve night. The winner will be the one who does so with the fewest penalties, one penalty for each sound they make, the room booby-trapped with one potential noise maker after another. And while they have had to do acting scenes before for the Star Quality Challenge, this one will be slightly different in that unlike all the previous ones being at the start of the relationship with the leading lady, it will take place mid-script where there is already an established history between the characters, and the scene mid-date on a picnic. While they are given a script, they will have the ability to ad-lib to insert other items they feel may work for the scene, either having that off-script idea in their head beforehand or doing it impromptu feeding off what is given to them by their acting partner, Ashley Williams.
Episode 7
Merry Christmas, Mom
Mon, Dec 8, 202542 mins
This week it's all about Mom. For the Festive Faceoff, the guys are asked to write a Hallmark Christmas card to their biggest fan, their respective Mom. They end up being surprised by the delivery method of the cards and how the Faceoff will be judged. And the Star Quality Challenge is another acting one, one which is central to many Hallmark movies: family. The actual scene has each, the son, making a surprise visit home at Christmas to comfort his recently widowed Mom. This challenge is especially important just in that the top three will make it into next week's finale.
Episode 8
Crowning Mr. Christmas
Mon, Dec 15, 202542 mins
The final three guys have one acting challenge left, the outcome of which will determine who is crowned season 2 Mr. Christmas, the reward being the leading male role in a Hallmark Christmas movie. Unlike their previous acting challenges, this one is split up into three, the final three adjacent scenes which are all shot on different sets. In being the final scenes, it in combination is to depict the climax of the boy getting the girl despite the obstacles. Also unlike previous acting challenges, they will get the advice of a Hallmark leading man about what being such means in an acting sense, they will be directed by a seasoned Hallmark director, they will work alongside more than one Hallmark star beyond the obvious of the leading lady, and they will be given two takes per scene, they evaluated on well they take the advice provided by their director after the first take for the second take. Following the announcement of who is crowned Mr. Christmas, the final edited three scene job by the winner is shown.
