Ryan joins us to review our first of two UpTV Christmas movies today — Saving the Christmas Ranch.

ABOUT SAVING THE CHRISTMAS RANCH

Carrie is racing against the clock: she has just two days to come up with nine months of mortgage payments or lose her family’s beloved Christmas lodge. When John — a charming developer with unclear motives — shows up offering help, Carrie must decide whether he’s a lifeline… or a threat. Holiday stakes, romantic tension, and small-town heart abound.

BRAN’S SAVING THE CHRISTMAS RANCH SYNOPSIS

Carrie is busy running the ranch. She has a lot on her plate preparing for the Christmas festival and keeps adding things to her to-do list. She gets a call from a mob-boss-level intense banker who insists she come see him today. We find out why when we see him staring at the ranch’s current balance… it’s bad. It’s NEGATIVE $1,038.

A guy named John calls—again—to try to convince her to sell the ranch. She’s not interested. So he decides he’s just going to come stay at the ranch anyway.

She goes to meet with the banker. It’s not good. There’s been some shady money stuff involving someone named Sandra Flowers, and Carrie has until 5 p.m. on Christmas Eve to come up with $15,000. That’s only 48 hours. Not great!

She calls an all-hands meeting and breaks the bad news: no bonuses… and probably much worse. They all get to work trying to figure out a way to save the Christmas ranch.

John keeps trying to talk to her about his offer, but she’s not budging. He’s like, “I can tell how much you love this place. What if I fund building a bigger lodge and you still run it?” He believes there’s huge potential for growth. Carrie is like, “I don’t totally disagree… but still no deal.”

John does a little snooping and discovers the truth—they’re really struggling and owe 15k. We also find out that it was the banker who told John about the ranch in the first place, promising him a great deal if Carrie can’t make the money.

But John genuinely wants things to work out for Carrie because he wants her to stay and run the inn.

Carrie ends up raising the money. It’s looking great. She brings it to the banker and he’s like, “Well, it’s a start… You ran out so fast that you missed the part where I said you actually owe $50k.” So that’s… devastating.

Carrie decides she just wants to enjoy the festival and have some fun. She and John compete in the Reindeer Games together and WIN big time.

Everything’s looking up—until she catches John talking to the banker and gets furious. “YOU KNEW!”

John’s excited to hear she’s doing an auction—maybe this will save the ranch! But… it’s not actually a fundraiser for the ranch. It’s for charity.

But guess who shows up… SANDRA FLOWERS. She explains she took the money to help her brother get surgery. In fact, the banker told her he’d pay for the surgery if she stopped paying the mortgage and emptied the bank account. The banker pops in with a “YOU LIE!”

The final auction item is a cake—and that money actually goes toward the ranch. It’s looking like they’ll only get about $300… until John pipes up and bids $50,000.

He says he wants to stay at the ranch and call it home—with her. And they kissssss.
