Dec 29: Haul Out The Holly - Lit Up
Look, even a seasoned holiday pro makes mistakes. I'm talking about me, not my gal Lacey Chabert. Should have known better than to go with a sequel 'based on characters created by Andy Sandberg'.
Lacked the perfect pace and surface skim of the of sleigh ride.

Dec 27: Merry and Gay
Continuing to mine the Zon for low budget LGBTQ holiday flicks... and behold a sapphic romance with enby lead set in a small Tennessee town, y'all!
Unsure about the Friends musical; could do without the meddling moms; definitely keep making out in front of the pastor's house.

Dec 25: Christmas in Connecticut
This 40s fav won the family vote as the official film this year.
Barbara Stanwyck's brazen flirting with a convalescing soldier while posing as a married mom is fabulous. She makes zero apologies for not knowing how to cook.
Career girl for the Christmas win.

Dec 23: Hot Frosty
And the award for most audacious premise goes to...
Like most of romancelandia, I love to see a nuts setup pulled off. An overly chiseled snowman acting out Pretty Woman with twinkled eyed Lacey Chabert as Greer? Yes please.
The Brooklyn 99 support squad was much appreciated.

Dec 22: Haul Out The Holly
Christmas pros knows anticipation is the magic ingredient so I dug into Lacey Chabert's back catalogue ahead of her Netflix debut.
Rom with lots of com and Lacey can style out an ugly Christmas sweater (secret? cleavage).
Bonus: quirky love interest with Santa fetish.

Dec 15: Holiday Affair
Operating under the 'why the hell not' ethos common to long flights, to gave this 1949 holiday film a whirl.
It did not light my tree. Professionally cute children of the Old Hollywood school give me the ick.
But damn Robert Mitchum could bring me a toy train anytime.

Dec 12: Our Little Secret
No less a publication than the New York Times is endorsing this LiLo vehicle as an acceptable mode of transport during the holidays.
A flyaway plot held firmly to the festive table with the glossy haired millennial paperweight that is La Lohan. Fan.

Dec 8: Last Christmas
*When* will I learn with Emilia Clarke romcoms? Starts out all shiny with the world's most perfectly imperfect heroine... by the end I'm a puddle.
Despite the absolute gut punch I didn't see coming, it has a great very British holiday singalong.
Michelle Yeoh is my Santa🌟

5th Dec: Christmas at the Ranch
Sapphic holiday films are devisive: include too much queer trauma and it all 'what about Christmas magic' Go full Hallmark and it lacks queer cred.
I don't care about the budget. I will watch them all! This one is like hot chocolate on the hayride. Ride em cowgirl.

4th Dec: Meet Me Next Christmas
So happy to see Neflix recommit to the romcom brand!
This is a successful sleigh ride around the park. Christina Milian looks amazing even in a fleece onesie, and Devale Ellis is a believable stealth hottie she accidentally falls for.
Bonus Christmas drag show 💅 👏
