Hallmark’s Countdown to Christmas is back for its 17th year, and it’s the biggest one yet. The channel kicked things off on October 16 and is rolling out 34 brand-new movies, with new films arriving every Friday, Saturday and Sunday through December 20. That’s a lot of snowy small towns, mistaken identities and meet-cutes to keep straight.

So here’s a game: could you pick the right movie if all you had was a single sentence about the story? We’ve kept each plot hint short and a little sneaky. Every question has four choices, and every answer comes from this year’s lineup.

Grab a mug of cocoa, no peeking at your TV guide, and let’s see how well you know your Hallmark.
