{{#rendered}} {{/rendered}}Morgan Fairchild, Nicollette Sheridan and the rest of the stars of "Ladies of the ‘80s: A Divas Christmas" all agree that Christmas to them means "family."
"I think it's a time for people to come together and family and again, love -- that theme that we all need more of in our hearts," Sheridan told Fox News Digital. "I think, you know, not only family, you take in the stragglers too when people don't have a place to go over the holidays and that we really think about giving and sharing and loving."
"Ladies of the ‘80s: A Divas Christmas" revolves around five actresses – including Loni Anderson, Donna Mills and Linda Gray – who starred in a long-running fictional 1980s soap opera coming together to film a final drama-filled Christmas episode.

The fact that people aren't here forever and that that time you have together is very special and Christmas is always very special just with the holidays and the joy and the season."

She said the movie is about "family. It's about love. It's about trust and … it's about gathering together. And to me, that's the whole thing is just gather together. Good, bad, indifferent. Hug each other and love each other and have a heck of a time."
