Finding Santa

After a good supporting role in the MSG approved Defending Santa, Full/Fuller House’s Jodie Sweetin follows tv sister Candace Cameron Bure’s footsteps and graduates to a Christmas Cheddar lead role. As the owner of a year-round holiday shop, she’s also the head planner of the yearly Christmas parade in her, as per usual, little town. How little? When their Santa Claus breaks his arm, there’s isn’t a single man in the entire town who can take over. In the ENTIRE TOWN, except for the mayor’s son, who’s a major league asshole (played with huge douchbag zest by some guy I hope gets some well-earned work from this). So it’s off to the big city to find the Santa actor’s son, who’s genetic disposition to harness his inner jolly is the only thing that can save the town. Literally, one of the major points they let us know is the town’s economy relies on tourism , which relies on the parade. In other words, if this guy doesn’t play old St Nick it will destroy the town like Carrie on prom night. Wow, there’s a lot riding on this. No surprises, but it is a Christmas heavy plot line and Sweetin bears the mantle well. MSG approved.
