Netflix will air a holiday special on Dec. 9 for its sitcom Family Reunion, which will reunite series star Tia Mowry-Hardrict with her Sister, Sister co-star, Jackée Harry.

Telma Hopkins will also guest star in the special. Hopkins and Harry will play the sisters of Loretta Devine’s M’Dear.
It’s the most wonderful time of the year, but as we know, for it to be a ‘Wonderful Life’ the McKellans must face the ghosts of Christmas past. The McKellans are back to spread Christmas joy in this holiday special about the importance of family, forgiveness, and empathy.
Here’s the description for the series, created by its showrunner, Meg DeLoatch: When the McKellan family moves from Seattle to Georgia to be closer to extended family, the transition is like being a catfish out of water.

Tia Mowry-Hardrict plays Cocoa McKellan, the free-spirited mother from Seattle, Anthony Alabi is her former football-playing husband, Moz, Devine is the family matriarch, M’Dear. Richard Roundtree, Talia Jackson, Isaiah Russell-Bailey, CJ Wright and Jordyn James also star.
