There have been countless takes on A Christmas Carol, but in 2022, Hallmark writer Zac Hug delivered one of the most unique twists yet with Ghosts of Christmas Always.

Widely considered one of Hallmark’s best, the film gives Rich and Rene plenty to unpack - from its layered story to the chemistry between the three ghosts and a standout musical score.

Rene questions whether Peter would really fall for a ghost, while Rich wonders if a bolder ending - with Kat staying in the afterlife - might have made the movie even better.

A strong supporting cast adds to the charm, though each host has a ghost they wish got more screen time. And when you cast a Broadway-caliber singer? Let her sing — no lip-syncing needed.

As always, we decide if Kat & Peter last, rate the kiss, and name our MVP. But the final score? Let’s just say Rich and Rene have never been further apart… and may never be again.

Plus — all 20 “Ghost Rules,” fully broken down by Rich (check our socials).

We keep it fun, keep it real… and keep it Hallmark Christmas.
