So, I don't know if it belongs here or in the TV thread, but I'm going to throw it out there: The Hallmark Christmas movies. I love them (for what they are). It's like a Lay's potato chip; nothing fancy, you know what you're getting, but they hit the spot. The plots are all the same: insanely-hot-but-she-doesn't-know-it girl leaves her hometown - family, friends, handsome-yet-down-to-earth boyfriend who'd rather stay on the farm or keep his little construction business - for the bright lights and big city. Some trauma/event/celebration brings her home, only for her to realize what she gave up, what she had been missing. Love rekindles, and life is good again.
I know it sounds so hokey, but with all the COVID, the political nonsense, etc. it's such a nice diversion. When the kids are not around for dinner, my wife and I will make dinner and watch one or two. There are literally three channels running these 24-7 through the Christmas season, so there's no "searching". We watched a good one with Candice Cameron Bure last week, and one with Allison Sweeney over the weekend.
