    I’m not a fan. The only ones I actually like are Home Alone 1 & 2.

    Bunch of rubbish, pushing the perfect life on us. What? NO! I'm not crying, you're crying!

    My neighbors are hooked on them. They won't hardly watch anything else, not even the news. I ask, did you catch that good PBS documentary. Nuh huh, we don't watch the news it's too depressing. They're all jacked UP on hallmark movies. Their tree goes up the day after Halloween. There's a huge hallmark following out there. I'm into utube music videos. They keep me going while I'm cooking, cleaning and typing my heartfelt responses to all of you. B) It's all fun, isn't it.

    People watch them then dream of randomly meeting a stranger and falling in love. Makes for easy pickins at the famer's market every weekend.

    Between the Hallmark movies everyone else is watching old Gunsmoke and Little House on the Prairie reruns. One little kid runs around outside and tells his father, hurry, hurry, Dad...Ol' Hoteye is coming on, Gunsmoke.

    I like "Christmas Keto with the Kranks". I cry every time I watch it.

    Hallmark, as in the Hallmark Cards, has their own television network? How did they swing that lol.

    I think Lori Laughlin bribed a few tv executives.

    It's -4 degrees here and I woke up thinking about this thread. ;) Can you imagine, making your way out to hollywood but you can't hit the big time with your name up in the marquee lights. Sadly, your agent tells you, I'm sorry but you're gonna have to hoof it on over to the hallmark auditions. You see your life pass before your eyes as you wonder how long you'll be stuck in a perpetual Christmas Carol for the rest of your life. You tell yourself the work is good while you can get it and you're grateful but you keep dreaming about your big break. o

    I love and hate the same thing - the positivity and warm fuzzy feeling. If I watch more than a two in a sitting, I find myself stress eating snack food because I get overwhelmed by the fairytale feelings. Movie #3 in the line up needs a Krampus character. Not a grinch that changes their viewpoint 10 min before the end. A serious Krampus. Then maybe I could lay off the pepperidge farms cookies I bought specifically for the movie viewing.

    Am I allowed to just say I hate them period? Hallmark movies in general tend to be vapid and moronic and I find them incredibly hard to watch (Christmas or not).

    Give me animated Christmas specials or Christmas Story any day over anything on the Hallmark channel.

    No one seems to exercise in these movies. There’s no way they can be that happy without exercise.
