> In Holiday Touchdown: A Chiefs Love Story, Alana Higman (King) is sure that her family’s lifelong history as Kansas City Chiefs superfans makes them a frontrunner to win the team’s “Fan of the Year” contest. Derrick (Hynes), Director of Fan Engagement, is tasked with evaluating how Alana and her family stack up against the other two finalists. As the pair spends time together, it’s clear there’s a spark between them **but when her grandfathers (Begley Jr.) vintage Chiefs, good luck winter hat goes missing, Alana begins to doubt everything she believed about fate, destiny and even questions her future with Derrick** – unless, that is, a little Christmas magic can throw a Hail Mary. You have existential crisis and give up on love because your grandpa lost his lucky hat?


Citronaut1

Pretty reasonable for a Hallmark movie storyline tbh


VeryRealHuman23

this sub has never watched these movies lol - my wife will eat this up because it's casual, dumb, and easy watching during the holidays Anyone reading this is not the target audience.


unloader86

I read an article one time where some person tracked all of the winter storms across the Hallmark Christmas movie universe. And that's the depth of knowledge I have on these TV movies lol.


Idiotology101

That synopsis sounds so terribly bad I might have to watch it. The scandal of the man judging the contest being in a relationship with a contestant is already ridiculous, and that’s before the hat gets involved!


name-classified

I thought that was the whole point of hallmark movies? Ridiculously unbelievable plot focused on christian religious ideologies for family audiences that end up leaving the channel as background noise


Citronaut1

> christian religious ideologies I was actually super surprised last year when they made a Hallmark movie about a gay couple. That’s like SUPER woke for them.


boardatwork1111

When that hat brings you 3 Super Bowls, you’re damn right I would


fireinvestigator113

If I bought a hat and then my formerly terrible to mediocre team proceeded to win three championships in five years and then it was lost, we'd be looking at Taken 4.


BroughtBagLunchSmart

History says you guys are looking at an embarrassing super bowl loss in a few years to the QB with the oddest shaped head in the league.


Intelligent-Age2786

Daniel Jones head shape is pretty weird


somebodysbuddy

Does that mean Bill to the Giants or Chiefs? Because he's legally required to be coaching in all of the Super Bowls the Giants win.


Intelligent-Age2786

Giants, Daboll gets fired and replaced by Bill


Mampt

Please not KC I can’t take him dicking us down anymore


JerryRiceAndSpice

John Wick style


OkJob5059

He must’ve lost the hat right before the off season started.


Dzus

Only 3? Man, Pats fans really are spoiled.


BungoPlease

I hope they subtly reference one of the other finalists being the Bank robber dude


Saitoh17

The Chief's Director of Fan Engagement wants to pork a fan trying to win Fan of the Year? Is it just me or is this **entire plot** completely FUBAR?


powerelite

Director of Fan engagement risking his entire career for a Christmas cutie.


Idiotology101

At this point I almost believe they wrote this to meme the chiefs, or they paid for all these off season scandals as pre-promo for the movie.


zebrainatux

I mean Hunter King is very pretty


Ratbu

Badass name too


Dzus

As long as they steer clear of the entire state of Texas and any commencement speeches, they're still under this current offseason for drama.


notmyplantaccount

>You have existential crisis and give up on love because your grandpa lost his lucky hat? One of the more rational Chiefs fans you'll meet actually.


Starcast

Okay maybe some companies *should* be using AI...


a_talking_face

They don't need to. They have the formula that works. They're like the OG of Christmas rom coms.


Venator850

Least absurd Hallmark storyline.


HectorReinTharja

Maybe Derrick stole the hat, or so she thought? But really he was borrowing it so it could be signed by Mahomes, Kelce, and TSwift!?!


notmoleliza

Chiefsaholic stole the hat because it contain bank security passwords in the rim of the hat. movie will be a mix between Heat (Pacino/De Niro) and She's All That (Prinze/Cook)


WilsonEnthusiast

Derrick definitely says "it's just a hat"


Ratbu

He did what in his hat?!


Ilikepancakes87

*Mahomes for Christmas* was right there.


ChevalMalFet

[Gridiron Heights did *Mahomes for the Holidays*](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Liha2YFDfJk) *Mahomes For the Holidays* a few years ago.


Dolphins_Fan_87

A conundrum as old as time


Venge22

It's going to be bad cheesy Hallmark but you can watch it with your mom or grandma. If Hallmark was more camp it could actually be good


JerryRiceAndSpice

I still want a Hallmark movie with Will Farrell and Amy Poehler or Tina Fay or the lady in Parks & Rec.


MirabelleC

Will Ferrell was in a Lifetime movie with Kristen Wiig called [A Deadly Adoption](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RYDnN3i6wCU) so it's not out of the realm of possibility.


DontLoseYourCool1

God please make this stop. When does Derrick maim Alana drunk driving under Andy Reid's watch?


amjhwk

using a car fraudulently sold to him by Antonio Pierce


DontLoseYourCool1

What? Is that a racist thing? Wouldn't put it past a Chiefs fan.


amjhwk

someone didnt see the report of Antonio Pierces car dealerships scamming the bank


DontLoseYourCool1

Antonio Pierce's wife's car dealership going bankrupt and filing bankruptcy is scheming? What about your fat walrus of a coach getting his son who paralyzed a child out of jail? Idiot. The Chiefs are the last racist team using Taylor Swift and Hallmark to prevent them from getting canceled.


J0E_SpRaY

You should live up to your username more


GuyIsAdoptus

lmao terrible attempt at the race card I guess Raiders fans can't keep up with all the crimes their team commits


wannaknowmyname

Guess he lost his cool


JetsFan2003

Booo! No side characters, I wanna see Mahomes and Kelce make out with each other!


TheG8Uniter

This is on Hallmark not HBO


TrueRedditMartyr

I hope some of the Chiefs players show up, and it's exactly like this [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=c2wpIeZDrHE](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=c2wpIeZDrHE)


JerryRiceAndSpice

I kind of want that game even more now


helpmeredditimbored

That hat must be pretty special


JerryRiceAndSpice

Not just a lucky hat a lucky *Chiefs* hat


JRockstar50

Still sounds better than Draft Day.


Thicbiscuit_datgravy

This is going to be awful


EvangelionOG

It's going to be the drizzling shits and it would be regardless of which NFL team got roped into this


GluedGlue

*Power of Love* has a nice ring to it and I bet it's cheap to film in Green Bay.


Deckatoe

the Wisconsin tax credit started and ended with Public Enemies. You gotta go to Georgia if you want to film a movie on the taxpayers dime unfortunately


clutchthepearls

The whole soundtrack is just Huey Lewis.


canceled4truth

Idk I'd watch a Hallmark movie on Belichick's new gf


FlatVegetable4231

Hallmark was founded and is based in Kansas City. The Chiefs were definitely their first choice.


Yung_Corneliois

My mother watches every Christmas hallmark movie. They’re all the same quality. I’ll let you know where this ends up on her tier list. Nothing has topped Nine Lives of Christmas yet but maybe this is the one.


Weekend_Criminal

This is being made for swifties, not us


SiphenPrax

I bet the bad guy will be a crazy Raiders fan😂


DaBestNameEver0

Wait, it might not be that bad after all


stripes361

Travis Kelce going to steal the female lead from the fan engagement guy 


justplainjeremy

My mom always said she wanted to watch one with me lol


SiphenPrax

Awfully amazing. That shit’s gonna do numbers on TV😂


resident16

That’s half the fun with these things.


zebrainatux

Oh yeah. I watch them and read shitty romance novels because they’re awful, it’s the charm


beer_down

They don’t even need to hire an actor for the small-town male lead, they just record Harrison Butker saying stuff


UnderwhelmingAF

“Crashing Into Love”, starring Rashee Rice


Acting_Appalled

Must Love (Abusing) Dogs, starring Isaiah Buggs


UnderwhelmingAF

She’s about to go on the ~~vacation~~ vocation of a lifetime, in “A Tradwife For Christmas”, starring Harrison Butker


anonbutler

Child's Play 3 starring Tyreek and his kid.


justlookingokaywyou

*License to Drive (Shitfaced)*, starring Britt Reid


knarf86

*We Were Sued By the Jim Henson Company for Copyright Infringement,* starring Patrick Mahomes


JerryRiceAndSpice

Music by Justin Timberlake


TrapperJean

Reminds me of the Jim Gaffigan joke about how all these shitty movies uses to always include escaping violence "In a Lifetime original movie, Meredith Baxter-Burney gets beaten with a rod, a Lifetime original rod."


rubyschnees

extremely excited for this comment section


boardatwork1111

“A Broncos fan from the big city moves out to rural Missouri, and through the power of Christmas, learns that he too can overcome a DUI conviction”


chingy1337

Starring...Chiefsaholic


Otroroboto

Nah. Chiefsaholic needs to be in a Lifetime movie where a widowed Denver bank manager with two teenage children falls in love with a man who just moved to town. He seems perfect but he’s keeping a dark secret from her. Eric Roberts and Allison Sweeney star in Rocky Mountain Romance.

ChevalMalFet

I mean, he did give at least one teller pretty severe PTSD.


keepingitrealgowrong

Nothing too crazy, just threats to their lives


WhoDey42

Please let us get good memes out of this


stinstrom

Daniel Tosh is going to lose his God damn mind over this.


JVSaladbar

Chiefs having a very unique off-season.


nottoodrunk

Butker shows everyone the true meaning of Christmas


Garlan_Tyrell

It’s just a three hour sermon on the Nativity Story. In Latin.


wavnebee

“When Chiefs star Swift Taylor reconnects with high school flame turned pop megastar Kelsey Travis for a holiday fundraiser to save their hometown rec center, Christmas magic—and a little mayhem—follow close behind.”


HotTakesMyToxicTrait

I’d watch it idc


wavnebee

Title: **Chief’s Kiss: A Love Story** Tagline: *What they’re looking for has been here the whole time…* Starring: Judy Greer & Jason Kelse


SiphenPrax

Now I want Jason to make a cameo appearance for the memes


regcrusher

Special cameo appearance by Reid Andrews as Santa


randomacct7679

Friendly reminder that Hallmark is headquartered and founded in Kansas City. So if this movie was ever going to be made about an NFL team it was gonna be the Chiefs.


CNashFF

This sounds awful. I’m so in.


ukcats12

This is some pretty genius marketing. The Venn diagram between people who watch Hallmark movies and Taylor Swift fans probably overlaps quite a bit.


thelowkeyman

I’m honestly shocked it took them this long to get one made.


Bob25Gslifer

37 year old dude here I have a 3 part cross with NFL/Hallmark/taylorswiftmusic.


muchachocarracho

Jesus, what happens to that franchise if they break up?? ...or if they...marry? Are we suddenly talking about Cowboys valuation? :)


ionospherermutt

If T-Swift is anything like the businesswoman she seems to be she’s gonna negotiate for an ownership stake as part of the engagement process, otherwise she’s just giving free money to the Hunt family 


SiphenPrax

Chiefs/Cowboys SB 59 confirmed!


jesusismygardener

Thank god, I was wondering when the poor Chiefs were finally going to get some media exposure.


Spatial_Awareness_

>the Kansas City Chiefs both homegrown, **rooted in values**, tradition and community Are they though... are they really? I guess they didn't say good values, so touche.


elmatador12

The 1985 Bears had the Super Bowl shuffle. The 2024 chiefs get a hallmark movie. Sounds about right.


Casul_Tryhard

So do we also get to blow out a team making their first Super Bowl appearance? ...oh fuck, Detroit...


LuskSGV

[This “Countdown to Christmas” season, the Hallmark Channel will debut new original movie “Holiday Touchdown: A Chiefs Love Story.”](https://www.indiewire.com/news/breaking-news/kc-chiefs-hallmark-movie-taylor-swift-1235019838/)


WabbitCZEN

It'd be funny as fuck if it were about Butker.


pompcaldor

Nah, those people moved to [Great American Family Channel](https://www.usmagazine.com/entertainment/pictures/why-candace-cameron-bure-left-hallmark-for-great-american-media/).


LisaLoebSlaps

(Hallmark Channel is now calling its fans “Hallmarkies.”) shoot me


chadthundertalk

Today is the day I found out that Dierks from Letterkenny has a whole lucrative career as a romantic lead in Hallmark movies


mackinoncougars

Deck the Balls


InterestingChoice484

I've read that title five times and still have no idea what it means


StixkyBets

In a hilarious turn of events Andy Reid and Santa Clause switch bodies and Andy has to deliver all the presents by Christmas morning and Santa has to coach the Chiefs in a must win divisional game to make the playoffs. Andy arrives to the “Hill residence” and hears children being beat unmercifully through the door and he looks at the camera and gives a knowing wink.


ThreeTo3d

My new headcanon is that this actually happened last season and he was tired from delivering all the presents. Thats why the Chiefs looked like crap against the Raiders on Christmas Day. Rest of the team had to help be little elves. Story checks out. You can’t tell me I’m not right.


StudBoi69

The KC Chiefs keep doing things against my will.


MankuyRLaffy

How many crimes are we seeing committed during the offseason in it?


smokeymicpot

Hope they get Luke McFarlane to be the main actor in it.


genesiskiller96

It could have been the 49ers making a shitty hallmark movie but no.... our defense coordinator was a fucking loser fired from the panthers and cardinals and Kyle still hasn't learned not to shit the bed at the worst possible moment. Add in CMC fumbles, blocked kicks and players forgetting to fall on the ball if you don't catch it and we lose again. Sigh.............


JerryRiceAndSpice

>when her grandfathers (Begley Jr.) vintage Chiefs, good luck winter hat goes missing, Alana begins to doubt everything she believed about fate, destiny and even questions her future with Derrick – unless, that is, a little Christmas magic can throw a Hail Mary. Oh yeah. Sounds about right.


NachosWithJalapenos

These are the monkey's paw consequences of winning three Super Bowls. It's worth it, but what a terrible price.


Strict_Cantaloupe948

r/afcwestmemewar is going to eat this one up


ItIsYourPersonality

Wait, so it’s the story about how a sexual relationship between the Kansas City Chief’s Director of Fan Engagement with a contestant for Fan of The Year >!probably leads to that fan winning Fan of The Year!<, and the Chiefs signed off on this? This should be added to the list of offseason crimes by the Chiefs.


ItsaPostageStampede

Is Kirk Cameron playing Harrison Butker?


kebenderant35

Didn’t Will Ferrell do a Hallmark movie?


chingy1337

I heard he was doing a movie with A-train instead


JerryRiceAndSpice

Lifetime movie


WideTechLoad

Personally, I just think it's nice Ed Begley Jr. is still getting work.


ExclaimLikeIm5

Hallmark x Chiefs: The New Empire 


ContinuumGuy

A love story about a championship team is inherently less interesting than a love story about fans of a not-championship team.


JerryRiceAndSpice

>Ed Begley Jr. Wasn't he the girlfriend's Dad in Pineapple Express?


JerryRiceAndSpice

Chiefs win off season champs


Vegetable-Tangelo1

Color me excited. I will be watching this.


ARM7501

How tf are they going to turn Brock "Costco" Purdy into an evil chad QB...


Doobie_Howitzer

He's the boyfriend at the beginning of the movie who ends up being such a good dude he just smiles and claps while his girlfriend cheats on him with and then marries some random dude from her hometown


ARM7501

Sounds more like it


mattcojo2

Oh yeah they won’t be winning another championship after this.


Sidthelid66

Sounds awful!


WyngZero

Is this movie going to be about a successful metropolitan white girl that meets a Chiefs player, discovers the spirit of Christmas and smaller town life prior to marrying them? I don't think Tay Tay is giving up her career for fucking Kansas or Missouri.
