During this difficult time I think we have found out a few things.  We can only watch so much social media, and News Networks about this thing. 

Also, we may not be missing the NBA, or the NHL as much as we may have thought, or at all.  We do miss the start of baseball, as it signifies the beginning of the warm weather. March Madness too!  Streaming is great, and booming, and also that we do need something positive to watch.  For me, crime shows are a bit heavy too right now. 

Enter The Hallmark Channel.  Yeah, we poke some good fun at them on the show from time to time.  All the movies have the exact same formula, but who cares?  Right now, we need some positive, uplifting stories to watch, and they are certainly that.  Life as it should be, and focusing on the best parts of life.   Falling in love, fairs, festivals, holidays, the whole thing. 

This weekend, Hallmark is putting on a Christmas Movie Marathon starting noon Friday!  Good for them! This is a great programming decision. It goes all weekend long 24 hours. I think they will have great ratings, and a huge audience for many reasons.  But the first one is   -  they just make you feel good.  And wow, do we need that right now.  I'll admit, I like them, they are fun, as they do make you happy. Windy and I laugh at the campy-ness of them sometimes, but that's half the fun too.

So, get ready. Get the popcorn, pour the wine, (Windy told me to buy more)  and make a fire -  It's Christmas in March on Hallmark - Very well done!!
