Rueben's Ramblings

On November 24, the ION original made-for-TV movie Defending Santa will debut at 9 PM.

Scott Hanson, a ski resort sheriff, inadvertently arrests a sleeping Santa in the snowy woods on suspicion of a crime he did not commit. With his sleigh ride now in doubt, Santa is put on trial. But, during the proceedings, Sheriff Hanson, also a dad and widower, begins to fall for Santa’s court-appointed defense attorney, Sarah.

The cast includes Dean Cain (from The New Adventures of Lois and Clark), Jud Tylor (from That 70’s Show) and Jodie Sweetin (from Full House).

Here is a trailer for Defending Santa.
