Charlie Brown's Christmas movie was way more pleasant even while having an outright (brief) sermon of sorts from Linus.
Agreed!
The Hallmark movies truly vile (and generally bad movies), and the summation of all of them don't have a decimal percentage of the charm the Charile Brown's Christmas has. Linus doing his pulpit sermon takes infinitely more creative courage than the Hallmark by-the-numbers factory film-making they do. I always think the "content" of streaming services is bad, and then the Hallmark channel movies remind me there is a whole quantum subatomic backrooms of slop beneath it. The Hallmark movie machine I think became self-aware long before any A.I. did. It's crazy how they are all exactly the same.
I also forgot but there is a great Citations Needed Episode on this subject as well.
