Lindy Booth

Lindy Booth keeps her Hallmark run tight and seasonal, and December is plainly where she likes to be. Four of her six films are Christmas titles, she carries four of them as the lead, and the mood is reliably winter in a small town. Her debut set the tone: Christmas Magic from 2011 is still her best, sitting at 6.6, just ahead of Sound of Christmas and Rocky Mountain Christmas, both at 6.5. She plays these straight, no winking at the camera, which suits the comfort-viewing crowd. One thing the numbers make clear is that she has no fixed co-star. She rotates partners rather than coming as half of a permanent pair, and she holds the picture on her own. If you want a dependable lead and a snowy premise you can read off the poster, she fits the bill.
