Josie Bissett rarely carries the picture, but across seven Hallmark films between 2013 and 2021 she has something better than top billing: a partner. Six of the seven pair her with Jack Wagner, which makes them one of the more dependable two-handers on the schedule, the kind of duo you settle in with rather than meet for the first time. Her films play it straight, usually a small town in summer rather than a December snow globe. Only one is a holiday title, and it happens to be her best, Christmas with Tucker from 2013, which at 6.7 sits just above her 6.2 average. If you like a familiar pair and a premise that asks nothing sharp of you, she has been quietly good company.
