Movie #3512 "Merry Christmas, Ted Cooper" (Hallmark) Well, I usually like all of Kim Sustad's films because she's so honest, and I did like this one, but Ted was a tough acceptance for me --- he was a bit too hard to believe -- a pollyanna kind of character. So the script went merrily along allowing the jokes to come from all the mishaps Ted has during the Christmas season with his co-workers betting on just how bad it could get for him. And he just takes everything in stride while re-falling in love with a high school crush, Kim. Thank goodness the film took an abrupt turn at the conflict --- and had it be that , you guessed it, he WAS too hard to believe, and the couple had to face that obstacle. The ending actually made me laugh, and with the conflict being a very real one, I am ending up giving this a 4 out of 5 and recommending it. That's hard to believe, isn't it?
