    I have never seen a Hallmark Christmas movie. Neither has Mrs. George.

    "Now look here, you Baltic gas passer... " - Mik, 6/14/08

    The saying, "Lite is just one damn thing after another," is a gross understatement. The damn things overlap.

      They have more happy endings than a Korean massage parlour.

      Or so I've heard.

      I was only joking

        GAF, Halmark, Up and Lifetime have already gone to Christmas movies.

        And you guys still worry about going to hell when you die?

        No sir. I am washed in the Blood of the Lamb and saved by Grace abundant.

        Those sound more like the kind of movie you see on the Satanic Pr0n Channel.

        Grace Abundant would be quite a good name for an adult movie star.

        Or a Sean Connery/Roger Moore era Bond girl.

              I think rubbing one off to a "spiritual, faith-based, conservative-family-oriented" Christmas movie might be beyond most of our capabilities, although I'm sure we all love a challenge over the holidays.

                  We should write to Candace Cameron Bure commending her for getting rid of all that gayness as we can now pleasure ourselves to her wholesome movies with a relatively clear conscience.

                    @Doctor-Phibes I don't think Candace cares what you think. OTOH, you could tell her husband, the hockey player.

                      He’d probably welcome the distraction if he’s in a house that thinks Hallmark movies are too risqué

                        They’re not risqué, they just portray a lifestyle the network does not approve of.

                        A perfect example of the difference between tolerance and endorsement.

                          Well I hope they don’t get all religious. I hate the way Christmas has been hijacked by Christians. They have been trying to undermine the traditional holiday values of rampant capitalism, gluttony and drunkenness in recent years, which is a worrying trend.

                                  Some of the hallmark movies are okay, but I watched on that was so bad, it was (unintentionally (I think)) funny. The "snow" on the bushes was obviously cotton fluff, and then in the next scene they were driving down a street with palm trees, etc. Definiltey was filmed on a low budget. LOL

                                      Christmas movies are not really my thing but I must say I really liked “Love,actually” from years ago. very corny but also very well done.

                                        I was shocked to find out that my husband likes to watch those Hallmark movies sometimes. The things you learn when you are married.....

                                          I think @Mik is trying to come out of the Christmas Movie closet in this very thread but he’s remembering what happened to his man-card over the Pedicure Incident…
