It's finally December, so you know what that means: It's time for a daily holiday movie on both the Hallmark and Lifetime channels. It is winter, after all.

Seriously, around the holidays, there's no greater guilty pleasure than those saccharine-sweet, low-budget films featuring every single beloved '90s TV actor ever. Through the years, our minor major obsession with these gloriously goofy, yet ultimately uplifting movies has led us to wonder what our own personal holiday TV movie might be about. Relying on our years-deep experience, we've put together a storyline generator guaranteed to give everyone their very own personalized holiday TV movie plot. You're welcome.
