Despite its nearly non-stop airing around the holidays, I had always avoided the film but wow, I absolutely adored it. Even though I've seen the story parodied and homaged so many times, the film truly holds up and yes... I cried.deadlydollshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06061028044836745499noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1003758772971289930.post-38671519241439163092011-12-20T13:24:51.515-05:002011-12-20T13:24:51.515-05:00The most recent OTC sent me to your blog and I hav...The most recent OTC sent me to your blog and I have to point you towards my favorite x-mass film, Hi Life a Frank Cappra like film that mostly is about collecting debts....Irenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18078694505194875348noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1003758772971289930.post-62933065847125112352011-12-20T06:59:01.116-05:002011-12-20T06:59:01.116-05:00Merry Christmas teddy.Merry Christmas teddy.deadlydollshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06061028044836745499noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1003758772971289930.post-12424245668755278942011-12-20T05:17:41.797-05:002011-12-20T05:17:41.797-05:00Merry Christmas Emily.Merry Christmas Emily.teddy crescendonoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1003758772971289930.post-45973137455021584342011-12-19T21:53:54.359-05:002011-12-19T21:53:54.359-05:00Sorry Wayne, it's no A Christmas Wedding Tail!...Sorry Wayne, it's no A Christmas Wedding Tail! Not good by any means, but so average and bland and without bite that eh, disappointing in that sense. <br /><br />I may do some youtube hopping yet! I can generally handle old school laugh tracks because I accept it as a product of its time. It's more modern laugh track usage that irks me. The country now knows that it's from a can. You're not fooling anybody!<br /><br />Loved Manoff on Soap. Loved how everyone hated her on Soap.deadlydollshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06061028044836745499noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1003758772971289930.post-28161956938750003732011-12-19T18:41:54.084-05:002011-12-19T18:41:54.084-05:00Your description makes me think that A Carol Chris...Your description makes me think that <i>A Carol Christmas</i> is not the enjoyable trainwreck that it ought to be and is instead some kind of mediocre banality. The first tip off is the cover, in which Tori seems to have beamed down into the poster for <i>Love Actually.</i><br /><br />If you're not all <i>Christmas Carol</i>-ed out this year, try to catch <i>Rich Little's A Christmas Carol,</i> a 1978 special available in its entirety on YouTube. It's such a gimmicky oddity that it deserves to be studied. WARNING: It features a rather heavy-handed use of a laugh track, and I don't think any of the celebrities Little imitates are still alive in 2011. Peter Falk might've been the last of that group to go.<br /><br />P.S. - Dinah Manoff was adorable as Mafia princess Elaine Lefkowitz on <i>Soap.</i> Good that she's at least still working.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05592834465338201494noreply@blogger.com
