Next year I need to line up alt tv marathon to pre-empt this hallmark Christmas movie marathon I’m being subjected to this year, third in a row. Last two years I tolerated it, but this year I feel some cognitive bones cracking.
THEY’RE ALL EXACTLY THE SAME AND AWFUL.

A lot of tradition is slow, cumulative brain damage. Effects start to be felt after year 3.

What my wife actually likes is the fantasy of living in a small town where everyone knows everyone. All these movies are about a big city career woman moving to a small town after a setback and learning the true meaning of community or something. That or princess stuff.

I wonder which direction is more prevalent in popular culture: big city career woman moving to a small town or naive rural girl moving to a big city (Cinderella-sort of)

Hallmark movies have a perennial plot structure, but in the Christmas ones specifically she is usually sent to the town to complete the takeover of a family business by her big firm.
