This was John Schneider and Tom Wopat's first reunion project after The Dukes of Hazzard ended; they reportedly took the roles specifically to work together again.
Willow Creek, Alaska doesn't actually exist—the real Willow Creek is in California, making this a fictional town that somehow got a Christmas movie before being forgotten entirely.
