So, from 1971 to September 10th 2001?

Canais Young Probably Late 1990s to 2000 for the stock footage. Filmed in Canada.

I noticed my reaction. A little cringe. Not bashing the skit, if I was I’d also call out “Stay straight out there”, but too soon? Do I need to find my peace and let it go?

Yeah, I hard her say that. So why do I need to read it?

That was a good line and the audience totally ignored it

And pumps that match each one but are somehow more rugged and suited to walking icy sidewalks than boots.

And so, so many pantsuits.

This is the greatest comment I have ever read about these movies.

She stops by all the Goodwill shops in town.

Every Hallmark Heroine gets issued a hypergeometric carry-on. Much like a TARDIS, it’s bigger on the inside. Santa uses the same technology to pack his sleigh.

I was expecting the black friend to be more of a corporate board member from the Business Factory.

Why is everyone surprised when there are fewer black people than white people in fucking Europe?

@@Cactuscupholder Because Hallmark movies are set in US cities where there are plenty of Black Americans.

@@Yolie-jk7ng Actually I think you'll find the movie they were parodying was supposedly set in 'Europe'. It's called 'Caucasia', love.

I love that movie!!

And don't forget the guy that runs an alternative school for less fortunate inner city kids. He's got a great rapport with all the kids especially his one son who is really good with computers. He's way different than any of the men she's used to. He doesn't wear fancy suits! He only wear jeans and flannel shirts because his school is out at his family farm where the kids learn about animals! And he's not worried about money because the kid's families cant pay with any real money. Only cassarole. But it's okay because he got the farm and a large inheritance from his Dad. He had a wife who died of a very rare illness that isn't really went into much detail about.

she must've EXPLODED too

Sara S this comment made me laugh so hard.

Yes .... good sketch. It looks like SNL is improving.

Sara S don’t forget the reminder to stay straight. pure chaos

I was so damn confused, and I loved it

It’s the kind of confusion you can only get by a low budget movie thrown together in two weeks

I was thinking 0 plot.

Whereas an SNL sketch has 16 actors, 8 writers, and no plot.

👀

We have a winner!

Ha, lol! So funny but I've watched and loved all 693 of them :)

No, he answered them on _Christmas_ specifically. Therefore, he's Satan.

"I want him to pay for our vacations, but you know, not let that need get in the way..."

My husband watches them all and I can safely, you are correct. Actually, the only difference between Hallmark Christmas movies and LMN Christmas movies is the murder.

See also: the fake commercial that got cut from the season 43 James Franco episode where he plays Canadian handsome actor Chris Bearstick.

@@thegrimmretails3777 Unless your husband is Drew Gooden I'm so confused by this.

@Walter K Bauer that would've been funnier than this dry sketch.

@@SuperAdam2468 send her the link to the video

That would have been a solid twist. Not very Hallmark-y though.

@Patronus88 i don't know, i never watched them.

crap. now I have to look that up now. look, I wouldn't have come on this thread if I'd known it would involve actual work. lol XD

Still as funny as it was 2 months ago

Too funny. It's also a favorite of my big, tough father in law. 😆🤦🏼‍♀️🎄

Try to wean him off by showing him Lifetime Movies.

I think it's tied into that article she's supposed to write. Somehow proving that Santa doesn't exist is key to making sure the killer will face justice. And that makes me feel bad for Nick St. Claus.

It's probably referencing the Kentucky governor who pardoned convicted killers last week as political favors.

@@nathanc6204 I doubt they were going for anything that deep on a Hallmark sketch.

That's Hallmark for you, you think "oooh excitement" but then they never deliver the excitement...

that old 70s movie black christmas its actually pretty chilling

"I'll marry Christmas!" So she's picking Santa?

"men"

yeah, I thought I heard wrong,but, you too,so, it's official

We all know there are no men in cities.

Well the true reason for Christmas is husband lol

you were not crying

Not only a christmas prince, there's also some goofy movie where the girl falls in love with a ghost haunting a property she has to sell, around Christmas. What? No, I never watched that....

Eh, gay people are fine for Hallmark as long as they used as gay props to give the main girl a male confidant without confusing the audience into thinking he might be a love interest.

Beyondfate132 right and no lesbians

Hallmark is "Christian Light"...all the secular shows that don't bother the extreme Bible-is-really-word-of-God types. Which is basically Lifetime-style women's movies, marathons of Little House on the Prairie and Davy and Goliath.

Beyondfate132 Yea, no gay people aren’t ok with what Hallmark pulled this week.

The only gay is the "love interest" . A lot of the guys who play Mr. Right are gay in real life. 😂😆 I've always loved the irony.

Or gigantic ski lodge, where hot developer has $$$ to save lodge from evil RE people (who generally ARE evil, so...)

I also love that at her job as a lawyer they don't give her time for the holidays even though every fucking law office closes during the week of christmas. How do I know this? I'm irish there are 5 lawyers on just my dad's side

Well, there's also the Caucasus mountains in Russia and central Asia, but accuracy would kill the joke.

LMFAO!!!

And A Christmas Prince 2. And A Christmas Prince 3.

And eventually A Christmas Prince 4, and 5, and 6

Prince Simon looks so much like Simon from the Christmas prince movies

Perhaps not Andrew this year?

Yes.... But the effects budget probably wasn't high enough to have him stand next to himself.

Thats literally what Netflix has done with Vanessa Hudgens Christmas movie, she plays 3 different main characters

@@Miranda-vj8yy yeah but that's the point, so they can be mistaken for each other -- as opposed to the comments reference which is that Hallmark uses the same actors over and over again in their movies. Though VH does also star in The Knight Before Christmas, so Netflix is getting there.

They'd have to pretape it.

hee..that was the best!! And “let’s call it vague Europe”

That's so on brand.

Hallmark just pulled all the ads featuring lgbt couples. They're not doing an openly gay Christmas Prince movie anytime soon.

@@jeffblack8457 I didn't think they would ever do a movie like that anyway...

@@jefflong1799 It might have been fun! Same exact story, but the journalist is Ronan Farrow (not Amber) and Prince Dick falls for him on sight... and because it's a fictional country (so its laws are flexible) producing a legitimate heir isn't important to anyone.

Lol 😝

His name is colin jost. Give the man some props.

And then Che wrote all of the responses to her questions.

There's another sketch they did on the season 43 episode hosted by James Franco that was a fake commercial that outlined all the Hallmark Christmas movies they're showing. Sadly, it's one of those "cut for time" sketches. Look it up. It's funny.

Canais Young I’ve seen that one too! I noticed the jokes about the gazebo and the amount of movies they make along the background music were used in both sketches haha

@@canaisyoung3601 I just went back to view it. It was HILARIOUS! This one didn't make me laugh at all, but the James Franco one is so on the money!

@@jeffblack8457 Also, the wig cap=migraine.

@@elenachristian9860 Seriously! I had a gorgeous wig made before starting chemo for breast cancer (I'm using my husband's youtube btw). I wore that wig exactly 3x (at weddings) and the rest of the time it was scarves and softly lined hats bc that wig-cap was torture & I was sweating under that wig! Just grateful I was only bald in the fall/winter (Sept - March)... summer baldness means hats & scarves are maybe too hot, too!

Can you be any more racist?

@@erickcota5367 Umm... me racist! I'm just saying that SNL got it right. Hallmark movies usually feature one black person and they never are the main character. Forget that their movies never even feature Latinos(which I am.) Diversity is not one of Hallmarks strong suits.

To me the problem isn't that there is or isn't a black person in one of those movies, but if you are going to do that right. Just don't drop in a black person with no backstory for reasons of quota. That almost makes it worse.....Then again does anyone have a real backstory other then Christmas in these movie? Literally random characters from failed Peter Lorre pilots have more backstory.

Sylvia S racist much?

Edited to add: Scarlett is Jewish irl, though she's had 2 Christian husbands and now is engaged to Colin Jost. I don't watch that Hallmark dreck, but I just read an article about the "Chanukah" movies; apparently they all feature Jewish characters who are desperate to marry out. I''ll be skipping those now (and in the future).

You're not wrong. Plus, their movies are diverse and I think many people want that. Also, OWN has a slate of these Christmas movies, with Black actors, scheduled. Even in 2019, people do what Oprah wants!

1personiam And that makes me sad, because Netflix used to have a lot of Christmas classics to look forward to; now it’s pretty much White Christmas and this pablum.

Hallmark doesn't do gay movies

There were actually a number of missed opportunities that would have made this skit even funnier, more relevant, and more of a jab. Thinking none of the writers actually watch Hallmark, they just asked around the week of the show and found some patterns.

@@aliciabuck3822 I agree. This sketch actually wasn't very funny to me. They just kind of stated all the vague, obvious tropes everyone already knows about Hallmark. They did much better with the James Franco Hallmark skit here kzfaq.info/get/bejne/g7mqrNenqdm0lqM.html

RandomX ha!

The controversy over a commercial with a same sex kiss, just as Hallmark explored the possibility of (gulp!) Xmas movies with same sex couples in them.

@@kokolatte825 I thought maybe this sketch was just made really quick because the Zola commercial thing happened on Friday didn't it?

Except for the accents, it's more badly affected Spanish-Brazilian Portuguese-antidepressant-mideastern Kentucky-did you know I am more holy because I went out of country on my mission but I beat my wife who I married 2 days after I got home.

There are plenty of latinos and some black folks in Utah. The Utah accent is nothing like British. But there are beautiful snowy mountains here, yes.

LMAO! :)

@Dobbys Boggart "Oh my heck" in a British accent would be awesome indeed.

Except that darn few people in Utah speak English with a British accent . . .

It's funny to watch Scarlett's mouth as she moves her lips while other people are speaking. Especially when her "father" comes in. Watch her mouth and laugh with me! 🤣😂🤣 @3:47

I was hoping for it and they did not disappoint.

I laughed way too hard at the jab!

What jab

@@jeffwei Hallmark caved into pressure from homophobic groups and removed an advertisement on their network featuring a lesbian couple's wedding. At the end Aidy says "Stay straight out there," a last second jab to the company for their fucked up decision. Since the episode aired, they reversed their decision and apologized, so good for them.
