CrimeTime: Freefall (2024)
You aid it, Mel
I'll start off saying that I've been a fan of all things Hallmark for years...back to the time when there was a Gold Crown store in every plaza and mall. I especially have loved most of the Hallmark mysteries and even have some of the DVD sets. As for "Crime Time," I won't plan to watch any more of these, should they continue to produce more of these. Luke and several of the others are excellent as usual, but several of the characters are too over the top. Overexaggerated overacting to me isn't quirky, it's just plain bad. I think Mel said it best during the trivia scene, "Miss Crime, it's time for you to go."
The Christmas Classic (2023)
Should have an "R" rating for language
So in the first 3 minutes the female lead yells "S**T!" and then "OH MY GOD, OH MY GOD" half a dozen times. Several minutes in we hear "Not a chance in H**l" and then her sister starts with the "OH MY GOD." Whoever the writers are needs to broaden his/her/their vocabulary and knowledge of proper English that would be appropriate for a Christmas movie that (assumedly) children will be watching. The female lead character is a spoiled, arrogant, entitled and thoroughly hateful brat--so nothing at all "nice" or uplifting about this pile of detritus. First thought is "Well the children won't be watching this," and second thought is that the exclamation "S**T" in the first few minutes is a very suitable description of this film. Turned it off at 20 minutes in. An offensive waste of time.
Good Sam: Pilot (2022)
Incredibly bad
Negligence, malpractice, dialog that would result in lawsuits or that violates HR regulations...all before the opening credits. It reflects very badly on the writers but even worse on whoever their "medical advisor" is. Just cancelled it from my DVR schedule.
