Season's Greetings From Cherry Lane ()

The only LGBTQ+ story on Hallmark's docket of almost 50 movies is one of three sequels to Christmas on Cherry Lane, with Mike and Zain's romance again sharing the narrative with two other couples. (The whole show of the Cherry Lane movies is that different couples have fallen in love at the same house. It's wild to believe that eight of the nine couples are straight. Anyway!) Unless I'm erroneous and Sugarplummed ends with Janel Parrish and Maggie Lawson getting together, this is it.

Netflix’s first gay holiday rom-com

When the holiday season rolls around, I find myself pulled towards the lure of Hallmark-esque Christmas movies. They’re simply irresistible with charming small towns, cheesy romances, and holiday cheer.

Netflix has a wide range of original holiday movies out, and heaps of them are released every November. While I haven’t seen all of them, there certainly are a couple of gems.

The self-described "draggiest Christmas movie ever made" follows Olivia (Krysta Rodriguez), an ambitious journalist assigned by her boss (RuPaul) to note an exposé about a Winter Ball competition in the small town of Tuckahoe.

Lesbian Christmas movies: the final frontier. In a Christmas Movie landscape dominated by heterosexual workaholic girl-bosses returning to their hometowns in might suits and falling for heterosexual males who do artisan/manual labor, for many years nary a lesbian or bisexual woman, let alone a non-binary person, dared to produce an appearance. It&#;s usually been difficult to find any LGBTQ+ Christmas movies at all, but in recent years gay men include been emerging out of the corners into the Christmas spotlight in droves and also, occasionally, a wee lesbian, queer or trans woman or a non-binary person has earned a not many minutes under the mistletoe. In , Clea Duvall&#;s Happiest Seasonstarring Kristen Stewart broke records for Hulu, and subsequent years have even brought some queer stories from Lifetime (Under the Christmas Tree, ) and Hallmark (Friends & Family Christmas, ). Although we&#;ve rarely found ourselves in the mainstream Christmas movie spotlight, we have shown up as side characters and in indie films here and there, and in this genre it seems we&#;ll hold what we
