It’s Sibling Rivalry on the TV One Holiday Movie Dear Santa: I Need a Date

By  | 

The holiday movie Dear Santa: I Need A Date debuts on TV One tonight, December 8.

This film tells the comedic story of two successful and ambitious siblings Janelle Vaughn (Reagan Gomez-Preston from The Cleveland Show) and Jason Vaughn (Ray J from Love & Hip Hop).

Their parents, Mr. Vaughn (Jay DeVon Johnson from The Favorite) and Mrs. Vaughn (Anne-Marie Johnson from In the Heat of the Night), are proud of their children’s flourishing careers but are displeased with their dating lives. Every holiday season, the Vaughn’s anxiously prepare for their children to bring home a significant other only to be disappointed.

This year, The Vaughn’s apply pressure by expressing their concerns to Jason and Janelle, which sparks a bet between the siblings on who can find a date by Christmas.

Dear Santa: I Need a Date debuts on TV One at 7/6c.
