I enjoyed Lifetime's Christmas in Paradise, which is new for 2007. It tells the story of two families missing one parent who hook up on Christmas Eve at a resort in Puerto Rico. There is a family of two boys and a mom whose father passed away in the last year. And, there is a family of two daughters and a dad whose mother just skipped out on them without any contact in the last year. Conveniently, there is a boy and a girl around the same age so they can all hang out in pairs, including the parents. Also, the youngest boy and the oldest girl are both very bitter and upset over their respective losses. Of course, during this Christmas, everyone starts to heal and love starts to bloom. It's a sweet story. The reasons why it got an A- rather than an A is because they tried to be all fancy with their camera work by doing a lot of split screens and it was very annoying. And also because everything basically took place in one day and that was a little hard for me to believe. But overall, it was good.
