Rueben's Ramblings

The Hallmark+ movie Happy Holidays from Cherry Lane will debut online on December 12.

In 1960, Eli (Benjamin Ayres) and Penny (Erica Durance) take in Eli’s curmudgeonly father, Walter (Serge Houde), and are forced to navigate some tricky family waters to get through the holidays while also working on a Christmas themed time capsule for son Alex’s school project.

In 1998, we see Regina (Catherine Bell) and Nelson’s (James Denton) first meeting: stuck together when a blizzard strands Nelson in Regina’s home on Christmas Eve.

In 2015, Jessie (Julie Gonzalo) faces a big challenge while planning her sister’s last-minute Christmas Eve wedding – the officiant is Tim (Ryan Rottman), her high school sweetheart, whom she hasn’t seen in almost 20 years.

There is, unfortunately, no trailer for Happy Holidays from Cherry Lane.
