Ladies of the 80’s: A Divas Christmas will star Falcon Crest‘s Morgan Fairchild, Dallas‘ Linda Gray, WKRP in Cincinnatti‘s Loni Anderson and Knots Landing‘s Donna Mills and Nicollette Sheridan. The gaggle of gorgeous ones will play soap opera stars who reunite to shoot their show’s final Christmas episode.
The ladies stir old old beefs! They pretend to like being together! They meddle in the burgeoning love between the series’ producer (Neighbours‘ Travis Burns) and director (Black Girl Missing‘s Taylor Ann Thompson)! They engage in a slap-fight while knee-deep in a lily pond… oh wait, wrong show. Ignore that last part.
The cast also includes Mills’ real-life daughter, Chloe Mills, Patrika Darbo (Days of Our Lives), Alec Mapa (Ugly Betty) and Christopher Atkins (the Blue Lagoon star who played Sue Ellen’s boy toy Peter on Dallas). Tiffany will perform the flick’s theme song.

“The opportunity to bring together Donna, Morgan, Loni, Linda and Nicollette, five powerhouse women into one holiday movie, has been like finding the perfect gift under the Christmas tree,” executive producer Larry A. Thompson (Liz & Dick) said in a statement to Deadline.
