Mmm, I don't get the Hallmark channel but I do get something similar. I noticed there is a lot to choose from this coming week as far as Christmas programming.
Movies
Bad Santa (2003) ***1/2
Not too bad of a movie and I always like Billy Bob Thorton. I enjoyed the relationship between him & the little boy even though I
found him annoying at times.
TV
11 Castle S7 : Bad Santa (2014)
12 Chopped: The Holiday Kitchen (20014)
13 Forever S1: Skinny Dipper (2014)
Not really much to say about any of them. Though I debated including the last one, there was decorated Christmas trees in the last scene and it did take place during the season.
CD
03 This is Christmas - Katherine Jenkins
Katherine Jenkins is a mezzo-soprano not strong enough for the opera but she certainly has a beautiful voice and she incorporates popular & classical pieces
on her CD's. I remember when Garrett was new & upcoming. Jenkins has a far superior voice and does well with light opera and
musical theatre.
This CD combines both classic Christmas hymns like Hark the Herald Angels Sings with pop songs like Santa Baby & The Christmas Song. This cd also contains a duet with Placido Domingo.
04 Noel - The Priests
Another classic trio reminiscent of Il Divo. This cd contains a collection of hymns and songs my favourite being Little Drummer Boy/Peace on Earth. I remember when Bing Crosby & David Bowie did that song for one of his Christmas specials. It still remains my favourite rendition but the Priests do it justice.
05 Christmas with Kiri - Kiri Te Kanawa
She is probably one of my favourite all-time opera singers and this cd is a nice one. My favourite song on the cd is The Greatest Gift of All.
