Yes, time once again to binge-drink hot white chocolate while binge-watching made-for-TV cheapies starring little-known American actors, littler-known Canadian actors plus an older actor or two for substance. Everyone is dressed like a Sears catalog model would dress if Sears still had catalogs. For movies set in winter, notice how many outdoor scenes are shot without visible breath vapors! As substantial and memorable as a made-in-China Christmas ornament. "C'mon get happeeeee...."!

I know -- it's all too much., but if it didn't work for them they wouldn't do it.

Hmmm..... Are you complaining about them - cuz tv's have an off button for a reason!! I haven't watched them in years - but I used to enjoy them when I did. It beats the heck out of murder and stuff. I think what gets my goat the most is how commercialized every. single. thing about Christmas is. Money...spend...give...what does any of that have to do with the actual reason for the holiday? Not trying to be Mrs. Humbug here, but when stores and tv starts putting it out as early as September or October - it just kinda hits my nerve every year. *sigh*

You can keep the hot chocolate, but my DVR is in Christmas heaven. I like most of the Hallmark holiday movies, I don't find blood, murder, dead bodies, violence, evil, etc entertaining. There's enough of that on tv as it is. Yes most Hallmark movies are predictable & cheesy, but I enjoy the simplistic stories.

I just received my order of DVD's - Carol Burnett Christmas, another of past Christmas episodes from various other older series, and another one of even older Christmas episodes from the time of Leave it to Beaver and the Honeymooners, etc. Figured I'd set myself up with some holiday viewing!

It's the most wonderful time of the year!
I watch them. Every one.

Honestly, if you don't like them, don't watch.
Plenty of other stuff on.

I hear it's a Criminal Minds type theme this year and Santa really does get run over by an Black SUV.
With a twist of NCIS since Santa is really a secret Federal Agent who taps your computer after breaking into your home.

I hear they have a special holiday card and the show's a real tear jerker.
