Lol. Agreed. But we are about to get a significant snow storm today and tomorrow. Last Spring, we lost power. Should be interesting.

As long as the cat & fireman one is in there somewhere, I’m good.

There’s really only 1 Hallmark movie. Different faces and places, but you can go about whatever you’re doing and just check the screen to see essentially where you are.

“It could have been even worse like a Hallmark romance marathon or a Hallmark mystery marathon.”

That’s the typical programming, and on (at least) two separate Hallmark channels.

“How about Murder She Wrote.
The last thing I want to think about is winter and snow.”

That’s on a different Hallmark channel.

Seriously, guys, the complainers here obviously don’t watch Hallmark.

Kind of reminds me of all the leftists who hate Rush Limbaugh, but would absolutely NEVER watch/listen to him.

I remember those days. Columbo, McCloud, Rockford Files, Ellery Queen (with Jim Hutton and David Wayne), McMillan and Wife, Lou Grant, City of Angels (1976 series with Wayne Rogers), and Delvecchio (the Judd Hirsch one that I would have liked to have gotten into more and would not mind your’s or anyone’s opinion).

“Or lesbian relationships. That is the new thing, now.”

Yes, it was shown on one Hallmark commercial (and the CEO was fired, although we can’t tell for which position, and I haven’t seen the commercial again lately), and there is some background stuff (sometimes on a cooking movie) if you watch very carefully, but it isn’t anything like what ABCCBSNBCComcast puts out — YET.

It would also be neat to bring M Squad, Dragnet, The Untouchables, Thin Man (with Peter Lawford), and other ‘50s cop/detective shows that have not been shown that much over the years.

It’s not dumb.

It’s great marketing.

Well, you’re all welcome to learn US History:

My US & and 2 Bundle at www.wildworldofhistory.com go from Columbus to Trump, all 22 videos for the curriculum, ranging from 35 min to 1 hr. 5 (Civil War, WW II) available at the site.

NOTE: The World History course is available but we haven’t filmed the 20 videos yet. However, there is an abundance of lessons on the site including the “Horrible History of Howard Zinn,” “Enduring Lessons on Life and Citizenship,” and “The 1620 Default” on the VIP side.

I wish I knew what TPTB means.

But never mind. I’m too dumb.

Because they have a full lineup of unique content for it. Unlike Easter and St. Patrick’s day.

Because it is feel-good, nostalgia escapist content that a lot of people want.
