Every year Hallmark adds a handful of new holiday titles to its beloved Countdown to Christmas. This year, they are adding a double-header of two holiday movies focused on twins–played by real-life sisters Ashley Williams and Kimberly Williams-Paisley. Sister Swap: A Hometown Holiday premiered on Sunday, December 5, and will air again leading up to the second film, Sister Swap: Christmas in the City on Sunday, December 12, on the Hallmark Channel. The interconnected films are about two sisters, Jennifer and Meg Swift, looking for a new purpose and discovering what they truly need in life during the holiday season. Despite living hours apart and two very different lives, the sisters couldn’t be closer. The holiday adventures give them the chance to switch cities–think country mouse, city mouse–to find new purpose and, of course, discover or re-discover love. Read on for more on how to watch the Sister Swap movies without cable.
