Last night Julie made me watch a Lifetime movie called "Dear Santa." I should be clear, when I say "made me watch," I really mean I turned it on and she told me it looked horrible then she fell asleep on the couch while I kept watching it.
It was so bad, I had to watch it. And of course I loved it. Here are some photos I took of my TV revealing a handful of things I noticed:
The film is supposed to take place in New York. There's an opening shot of Love Park in Philly. If you had any doubts that this is INDEED Philadelphia, the building WAAAAAY in the background is the same Art Museum where Rocky runs up the steps during his training montage.
The film stars Amy Aker from Angel. It is directed by Jason Priestley from Beverly Hills 90210. While watching the film, Julie commented on how bad the writing was and then asked why I couldn't a get a job writing a movie like that. I took her hint.
Just to really drive home the point that Amy's, or Crystal's as the character was named, friend was gay, they dressed him in ALL pink. Because that's what gay dudes do right?
Julie woke briefly to laugh at the "To Whom It May Concern" greeting on the eviction notice...then she told me to turn it off again. I didn't. And Amy (Crystal) goes on to use her rich family supplied allowance to keep the breakfast mission opened (Spoiler).
And they all lived happily ever after, especially Julie who slept through most if this.

"Dear Santa" is actually one of my favorite holiday movies. It's corny, sappy and totally lovable.
