PLOT:

Storyline via Hallmark: Christmas is a busy, busy time for the residents of Green River, particularly for Grace Long, the third generation of her family to steward the New England town’s signature Christmas Eve parade. This year’s audience for the parade promises to be in the millions, thanks to a national morning show that has chosen Green River as the site of its Christmas Eve day program. But this huge opportunity will vanish if Grace can’t find a suitable substitute for the town’s famed Santa, aka Tom White, after he takes a nasty fall and breaks his arm. Unfortunately, the only person who could conceivably fill Tom’s boots is the one person who has consistently refused to consider it: his son, Ben, a writer who lives in Boston. With her town’s reputation and economy on the line, Grace has less than a week to figure out a way to get the reluctant Ben from Boston to Green River and into that Santa suit. As December 24 draws near, she and Ben discover an unexpected and wonderful Christmas gift: love.

  1. Interested to see this one.

    Eric Winter and Jodie Sweetin are two new actors to me although I think Mr Winter is married to Roselyn Sanchez.

  6. I was pleasantly surprised by this one! I didn't expect much and almost skipped it but I'm glad i didn't! Finding Santa was so funny and entertaining. Santa Clint was hilarious. The Ugly Sweater sticking during slow dance had me chuckled! It was quite a unique story line and Jodi Sweetin and Eric Winter did fabulous job. Loved it!
