Christmas Hallmark movie bingo is my latest just-for-fun project. The twelfth edition of Oscar bingo is on the horizon, and along the way I’ve made Presidential Debate bingo and So You Think You Can Dance bingo. But the glorious tropes in Hallmark Christmas movies might make the best bingo of all. If you or a loved one have been sucked into the fantasy formula of holiday TV movies, you know what I’m saying. Print yourself some bingo cards and create a Magical Royal Enchanted Very Merry Christmas To Remember.
The Christmas Hallmark movie bingo PDF file has six different sheets. They include such classic clichés as:
- Main character lacks appropriate Christmas spirit
- Demanding boss only cares about money
- Cancelled flight
- Vehicle breakdown
- Man rescues woman from disaster
- Lost item or child must be delivered
- Misunderstanding results in plans to leave town
- Unzipped coat despite freezing weather
- Main character bungles Christmas activity
- Cutting down Christmas tree scene
- Making cookies scene
- Wrapping gifts scene
- Current significant other gets dumped but takes it surprisingly well
- Woman quits successful big-city job
- Leading man and woman are Caucasian
Christmas Hallmark movie bingo is my Very Special Heart-Felt Gift to you.

Of course you know how to play bingo, but just in case… Print out the number of cards you need. Mark off squares as events occur, and the first person with five in a row wins. There’s no free square in the middle on this one, though I probably should have given you extra charity for Christmas.
It doesn’t matter which year you use the bingo cards. There will always be an endless supply of snowstorms, cancelled flights, and women who leave stressful city jobs after falling for small-town men in pickups. And nobody will ever learn to zip their coat.
Happy holidays!
