I don't know about anyone else, but I am so glad to see the end of all of the Christmas movies.

From the middle/end of October until the beginning of January is just way too long. They must have a market for it or they wouldn't do it year after year, but I am not a fan.

I would rather watch reruns of Murder She Wrote or Diagnosis Murder than endless Christmas movies. (Of course, I am referring to Hallmark and Great American Family Christmas movies, not theatrical Christmas movies, of which there are some I enjoy.)

And don't even get me started on the "Christmas in July" Christmas movies....

and don't really plan to. The first few I saw were ok, but they are pretty formulaic, and I stopped watching when I could say the next line out of a characters mouth (sometimes word for word, lol).
