A Shoe Addict’s Christmas
This holiday flick combines two of my favorite things: Christmas and shopping for shoes! Bure stars as Noelle, a department store worker who finds herself accidentally locked in the store after closing. Noelle’s affinity for footwear leads her to the shoe department where Charlie (Jean Smart), an eccentric woman who claims to be her guardian angel, appears out of thin air, having been sent to help her embrace romance, passion and the Christmas spirit. When Charlie has her try on a new pair of shoes, Noelle is magically transported back to Christmases past and given a chance to change her current circumstances. When she returns, Noelle meets Jake (Luke Macfarlane), a handsome fireman, whose frivolous ways is a bit off putting to her. A Shoe Addict’s Christmas airs Monday, November 11, at 10 p.m. ET.
Switched for Christmas
You get two Bures for the price of one in this flick—three, actually as Bure’s daughter, Natasha also stars.
Identical twins Kate and Chris Lockhart plot to be the other sister—at Kate’s office and Chris’ school—and take on planning their sister’s Christmas events. One rule, though: no romance. The film also stars Eion Bailey and Mark Deklin. Switched for Christmas airs Friday, November 22 at 6 p.m. ET.
