- The movie is realistic in that the homes seem to match the characters' incomes, there is a lot of racial diversity (and one of the main characters is Jewish), the love interests are co-workers, the kids are loud and chaotic (not quiet and well-behaved), the hair/makeup and clothes are what people typically wear in real life, and the musical numbers come at natural moments (open mic at a bar, mumbling a holiday song at the water cooler, karaoke at the office holiday party, etc.).

- Cat fighting between Tori Spelling and Tia Mowry! Well, there’s no real fighting — physically, anyway. But the Beverly Hills, 90210 and Sister, Sister alums trade a lot of spicy words, as the pair battles to rule the holiday group-singing circuit.
- The soundtrack! It’s already available on iTunes. If you like Glee and the holidays, then you’ll love this. Spelling’s group The Snow-Belles sing Mariah Carey’s holiday standard “All I Want for Christmas,” while Mowry’s Mistle-Tones group sings “Please Come Home for Christmas.”
- Tori’s wardrobe! She wears a loony fur hat at one point and, thankfully, she turned in a winky performance suggesting she realizes just how silly her role and the whole movie is.
- Carl Winslow pops up! That’s right — the ever-classic Reginald VelJohnson plays Tia’s dad. From TGIF’s Family Matters to… ABC Family’s The Mistle-Tones.
