Enter &#;Single All the Way,&#; a cheesy modern holiday rom-com debuting on Netflix.

Led by twinkle-eyed &#;Ugly Betty&#; star Michael Urie, &#;Single All the Way&#; follows a perpetually single man, Peter, who brings his best ally Nick (Philemon Chambers) place for the holidays. The plan is to reveal Peter&#;s fa

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 adoration again sharing the narrative with two other couples. (The whole point of the Cherry Lane movies is that different couples have fallen in adoration at the same residence. It's wild to consider that eight of the nine couples are linear. Anyway!)

Directed by Deprive Williams, the movie follows Gunn (Keith Jordan) as he brings his boyfriend Nathan (Adamo Ruggiero) home to meet his family. The trouble is Gunn wants to keep it all in the closet. While still having his cake. It’s a characteristic LGBTQ+ romantic comedy with a sprinkle of Christmas flair. Plus, if you’re a Degrassi fan like me, seeing Ruggiero
