Lacey Chabert is a pretty reliable Hallmark Christmas star, and 'Family for Christmas' was a nice departure from the usual Hallmark Christmas fare. No small town returns for Christmas here, instead you get a pretty good story about a busy TV reporter who doesn't have time for Christmas waking up in an alternate universe where she is married to the guy she left to take a TV internship in San Francisco and a mother to two young girls, all thanks to the intervention of a wise (is there any other kind?) Santa Claus. Chabert is a good actress and portrays her character's fish out of water role very well as she tries to figure out what her life in the suburbs looks like. A nice story of the road not travelled for Christmas.
