Christmas Con Celebrates 5 Year Anniversary; Deli Boys Premieres in March on Hulu

That's 4 Entertainment had its 5th Annual Christmas Con last weekend (December 13-15) at the Expo Convention Center in Edison, NJ. They celebrated with a bang with the most jam packed line-up ever. We were on the red carpet with all the details. The festivities were hosted by Jenna Leigh Green (Sabrina the Teenage Witch, Broadway's Wicked) and Official Headliner Lacey Chabert. Highlights from the event included: guests doing meet and greets with the attending talent for group and solo photo ops, autographs and selfies. The weekend was jampacked with celebrity panels sharing personal stories and moderated by Executive Editor, TV & Events at People – Breanne Heldman. The weekend also included an Ugly Sweater Contest, Sleight that Song and Celebrity Reindeer Game, but the highlight of course was that fans got to enjoy their moment to get an autograph and photo with their favorite Christmas stars!

Additionally, Hallmark's extremely popular Three Wiser Men and a Boy was screened on Friday night with stars Paul Campbell, Tyler Hynes, Andrew Walker and Kimberley Sustad. On Saturday, Nikki DeLoach hosted the "Have Yourself a Merry Little Christmas Con” Concert featuring Drew Seeley, Lindsey Alley and Tony Lucca. But the highlight for us was the Red Carpet event on Saturday morning where we asked the stars about their new Christmas projects, their Christmas traditions, what they are doing for Christmas, what Christmas Con experiences have been like, and of course their favorite sitcom Christmas episode.

Check out our YouTube page for all of the stars that graced the red carpet including The Wonder Years' Danica McKellar, James Denton, Jessica Lowndes, Meghan Ory, Cameron Mathison, Michael Rady and host Jenna Leigh Green! It was a great Christmas Con and the best one yet! We are still hoping Teri Hatcher joins! She has been starring in many Christmas movies over the last few years. And many staples of Hallmark/Lifetime Christmas movies that have yet to appear include Christa B. Allen, Keshia Knight Pulliam, Laura Vandervoort and Julie Gonzalo. Hopefully they come next year! Stay tuned as we will be on hand for the '90s Con in Hartford once again this March!
