Ooh, they just got to an inn in Vermont right before a snowstorm! If the clerk doesn’t say, “We only have one room left,” I’m turning it off.

I loved Noel Diary. Netflix has been doing a great job on romantic tv movies for me, they're normally also so visually appealing which I love. But I also had to send H and one of my sons away because they were making annoying comments😂 I’m watching this one right now on my sick day. The male lead reminds me of Michael Vartan, which is adding to my enjoyment. Did you not watch This is Us? That’s Kevin Pearson! 😆

Watched A Holiday Spectacular last night! It's more like "set at Christmastime" than a Christmas movie. I find myself thoroughly enjoying when the story is told from the present about the past. Anyone else seen this one yet? Add it to your list if you haven't!

Anyone else seen this one yet? Add it to your list if you haven't! It was very cute, and a great cast. Ann-Margaret is a legend, plus the original Jan Brady (Eve Plumb) was the love interest's mom! And the dancing is perfection.

And the dancing is perfection. Yes to all of that! Eve Plumb was a total surprise to me and I gasped when I saw her! Was happy to see a dancer with the arm/hand malformation. I loved the dancing. I asked my H if he’d ever want to go to NYC to see one of their shows and to my delight he said YES!

I put on the Lindsay Lohan one and I'm liking it so far.

I hope so. I was slightly sad when I saw so many go over there.

I hope so. I was slightly sad when I saw so many go over there. Yeah, I was disappointed to see Danica McKellar make the move, though I know she and Candace have been friends since they were kids. And who knows, she may have similar politics and just keeps quiet about it. I imagine some of the actors thought it would be beneficial to get in on the "ground floor" so to speak, instead of being one of many at the machine that is Hallmark. I doubt they expected Candace to so openly declare the network's intent to discriminate in their storylines. It'll be interesting to see who stays and for how long. GAF will for sure have a niche (bigoted) market, but the question is can they keep/attract the advertisers they need to make it profitable?

Minus his political ideas he may have been a great boss that promised them many things and they felt loyal. I just hope now they realize what his real intentions are and they move away from the channel. I have not watched anything on that channel so I don’t even know who has movies and who doesn’t

I've watched all of Netflix's new offerings this year and LL's was definitely the best. I'm actually disappointed with the line up. Hopefully they have some good ones still in the pipeline? No Hulu or Hallmark for me.
I watched Disney's Pentatonix Christmas special with the girls (9 and 7) and that was a huge hit. They were hooked. They interview kids/young adults around the world and their various Christmas traditions in between songs.
One of my all time favorite terrible Christmas movies is The Christmas Card- I think originally on Hallmark? She (Faith) sends Christmas cards to soldiers abroad, and one is so enchanted he comes through the small town on the way home from his current tour. They bond over good works and extra crispy curly fries. Her family owns a Christmas tree farm. It has a bunch of low key famous people in it. Anyway, if they still show it, it's worth a watch.

Oh well now that I’m Googling it, it seems that the director has shut down the rumors. Dang.

My sister is super sick with probably the flu, so we are postponing our Thanksgiving by at least a couple days. I told her if she watches the Lindsay Lohan movie without me, I am disowning her as a sister. She said “I’m sick, not a criminal.” Lmao. Glad we have that understanding. H and I just finished Spirited, and I really enjoyed it! We watched Spirited last night as well and really enjoyed it. Finally watched it and thought it was pretty cute. I'm not a musical person, but I thought the songs were well done and fun. Just a bit too long which seems to be a thing with new TV movies.

So far I really enjoyed Three Wise Men and Big Fat Family Christmas. I haven’t watched any of the Netflix ones. I need to watch some of my old favorites.

Christmas Class Reunion was good - I really like Aimee Teegarden (I loved her one last year with Andrew Walker, where she found her bio dad through the DNA company). Didn't get the chance to see Holiday Sitter last night but will try and catch an inevitable rerun.

I watches BFFC last night and it was pretty good, I liked the different storyline. Every time they said "Changtastic" (which was a lot) I was cringing.
