Hallmark’s NFL-team movies pull sponsors and ratings gold with Bears entry

The Measure’s Jon Lafayette reports that Hallmark Channel’s third NFL-team holiday movie, Holiday Touchdown: A Bears Love Story, follows Chiefs and Bills editions that ranked as the top and No. 10 most-watched cable movies of 2024 and 2025.

Why it matters. Cross-brand audience overlap gives Hallmark access to male NFL fans and new local sponsors in Kansas City, Buffalo and Chicago, while the NFL gains inroads with Hallmark’s largely female viewership.
