A feud just before Christmas threatens this year's contest. It also draws the attention of a reporter looking for a story on the "Real Housewives of the North Pole."

Brandt played Walter White's sister-in-law on Breaking Bad. She subsequently starred on The Michael J. Fox Show, Life In Pieces and Love, Victor.

Real Housewives of the North Pole begins filming in Utah this month. Peacock says the film will air on the streaming service later this year. Ron Oliver directs.
