I doubt it I rarely watch Xmas movies or shows, not interested in seeing any.

annieroo said...

Yes, often watched a Christmas one today, Christmas with Tucker, about a boy and a dog.. Easy on the ears when you are writing out xmas cards.

Is anyone else a fan of the Hallmark/Vivid Video co-production of "It Came Upon A Midnight Queer?"

Farmgirl said...

We watch them continuously from Thanksgiving until the Christmas Story marathon begins.
The one with Gary Sinise is fantastic.
The Hasselhoff one is unwatchable.

My estrogen levels are too low to watch the Hallmark Channel.

I did force my son to watch Elf yesterday. Much protesting at first, then after the initial couple laughs, he dug it.

Jon said...

I would rather stab myself in the eyes with knitting needles.

Joel Theriot said...

Of course! When Tricia Helfer is on my tv, I'm watching. And the one I saw with her was entertaining. Sincerely.

Jane said...

I would rather watch grass grow.

Glitter said...

Most of the Hallmark movies are unwatchable, but I have a soft spot for Mrs. Miracle starring Doris Roberts.

They should make this hallmark Christmas movies with full frontal sex scenes like the puppets having sex in Team America. Ratings bonanza

Truthseeker said...

OMG yes, I have one on right now. I DVR the hokey things and then watch on Monday, which is my work at home day, or Saturday mornings, which is what I call, Dakota TIberius, Mommy Slug day (dakota Tiberius is the love of my life, he is black and fluffy and weighs 50 pounds and is the best snuggler ever, He is also 12, so i enjoy every minute) ANYWAY, They get a HUGE upgrade on my list if they have dogs in them.. lol, such as Golden Christmas,
@B626 The journey back to chritmas was great!

samechick said...

I never miss one.

Glitter said...

Farmgirl: What's the one with Gary Sinese called? Thanks.

auntliddy said...

Many many years ago snd i am still recovering. Those movies are awful in every concievable way. Juvenile, senseless script, actors from the willie woodenhead school of acting, plot holes or more accurately, plot chasms, poor camera work, - just awful. My advice: dont do it!!

M said...

I'm actually thinking about writing one.

texasrose said...

Did hallmark make Bad Santa? If so, then yes.

Truthseeker said...

LOL does anyone watch any "TV" movie for great acting or plots? I watch them because they are simple, easy and have Christmas in them. Sure they are all Harlequin romances on steroids, But as a child of the late 70s I used to read Harlequins by the truckload, I am quite sure my mom still has 100s of them.
I stopped reading them after my tweens, and preferred True Crime and books by Dostoyevsky.
Now that I am just past 50 i find myself being drawn to teen dystopian poorly written novels.. lol.
When I read, i like to escape the tedium and thought process that I deal with daily. That is why I do enjoy Hallmark at Christmas. I do not go near the channel any other time of year. But I enjoy being able to escape reality at times.

Jax129 said...

yes all the time, even if they are totally budget with props & decore

Misty said...

No!! How could you?! 😱

Misty said...

Same 😂

OKay said...

Can't say that I have...

just sayin' said...

no, anything hallmark is against my religion.

Me Again said...

No, but I hear them all the time. Mom lives with us and she is addicted to the Hallmark channel. 24/7, loud as can be.

lucy said...

seems akin to Lifetime movie with carollers. no thank you!

missann said...

Hell yes, I love them. No shame in my game.

Scandi Sanskrit said...

No. They're sappy and sentimental and I squirm at feels, I am Lucy van Pelt. Give me the Grinch or Peanuts or Muppets any day.

Scandi Sanskrit said...

You sound like you would enjoy "Avenue Q"! 😂🤣

It's my guilty secret.

Much like CDAN.

AJ said...

I quoted Elf yesterday on FB when we took the mini to see the big guy in the red suit.
“You’re not the Real Santa. You smell like beef and cheese!”

Scandi Sanskrit said...

Oh I didn't realise you had two comments on this thread. The one above about sentimental wheeeee-wheeeee was meant in réponse to this one. I wa a in a cab when I wrote that sorry! 🗽👩🏻🚕🍂💛

Scandi Sanskrit said...

"I don't dislike Hallmark/Lifetime on the basis of any form of snobbery. It's just that melancholy whaaaaa-whaaaa sentimentality gives me a rash. 👩🏻"

Scandi Sanskrit said...

Eh. CDAN isn't my guilty secret, I'm as open about being here as I'm open about reading Variety.

Waaay cooler than reading Kneepads magazine.

Scandi Sanskrit said...

Especially now with the Blogger layout, it just seems like a cool underground dive bar or something. Like the ones the vampires in "Kiss of the Damned" or "Only Lovers Left Alive" went to. 👩🏻

Farmgirl said...

Glitter: It is called Fallen Angel. Also with Joely Richardson!

Count Jerkula said...

Aj, you seen a pic of Artie Lange lately? Poor bastard cant smell shit w/ that infected nose & face he has. His beak looks like it is about to explode.

sharoncat said...

yes!!

insatiableinthecity said...

Watching one right now 😀

AJ said...

Count Did you see he got popped for heroin possession ? He was driving erratically on the GSP and got pulled over after coming out of a rest stop I think.

Count Jerkula said...

Yep. Junkie gonna do what junkie gonna do.
