Dolly Parton’s Mountain Magic Christmas isn’t actually the country singer’s first collaboration with NBC. Seven years ago, she signed a deal with the network to develop a series of TV movies that are based on her most well-known songs and inspirational life. Fans were thrilled with the release of Coat Of Many Colors. The sequel Christmas of Many Colors: Circle of Love followed a year later.
