James Denton & Teri Hatcher Reunite at Hallmark Channel's Countdown to Christmas Sing-Along

The holidays are here — and what better than Hallmark Channel to welcome them!

On Wednesday, Hallmark Channel hosted a Countdown to Christmas Sing-along Drive-in Experience at The Americana at Brand, which featured performances from the likes of Jordin Sparks, Train and Forest Blakk — and appearances from Hallmark Channel's favorite stars.

Along with the set of the performance, fans got to see some of their favorite actors tease their upcoming Christmas specials, including former Desperate Housewives stars James Denton and Teri Hatcher, who reunited ahead of the release of their A Kiss Before Christmas film, which is set to release Nov. 21.

"I think Hallmark Christmas movies are really special because there's a lot more diversity in storytelling," said actress Ashley Williams, who stars in Sister Swap: Christmas in the City.

They were also able to decorate their vehicles with reindeer antlers and grab hot cocoa and snacks before getting to watch some of their favorite stars on stage.

"When it comes to decorations, we air on the side of panic," joked Williams.
