With each passing year, television Christmas titles just keep getting better and better. Puns and wordplay are all part of the holiday movie charm, and one of the latest Lifetime movies takes the cake. The Christmas Yule Blog stars Sara Canning as Caroline Williams, a travel writer for social media who finds herself in Carte De Armor, New Mexico on assignment. While in New Mexico, Caroline meets high school music teacher Oscar Ortiz (Zak Santiago) and her perspective on Christmas completely shifts. Suddenly, she has something new to write about in her yule blog.
In the same vein as many Christmas movies, The Christmas Yule Blog centers on someone with dim view of Christmas that lights up with the help of a spirited parade and a new romance. The film is just one of many new holiday romance movies coming to Lifetime this season, which combined with the new crop of Hallmark Christmas movies and a handful of Netflix originals, presents a “the more the merrier” kind of situation — quite literally. For a rare holiday movie getaway to New Mexico, make sure to check out The Christmas Yule Blog on Lifetime.
