Hallmark is the Chick-Flick channel.
This is NOT going to help their ratings.
Notice how the lez Batwoman has helped CW channel.
It hasn’t!

Well, that's smart, seeing as you would want to program for a larger demographic.

Remember when gay meant happy, rainbows were God’s sign to Noah that he wouldn’t flood the earth again, and only horses were ridden bareback. Because if the left has it’s way,our grandchildren won’t.

Nothing should appear in a story that is not in some way related directly to the plot. The definition of science fiction, for example, is one rule or law that is different from the real universe. Whatever this difference is, it must drive the plot. (Most of what the entertainment industry calls science fiction is actually a western set in space.) What I see of gayness in entertainment is either an ornamentation, like glitter, sprinkled over another story that does not need or want it, or, it’s a total SJW “woke” story that, as a result, has zero entertainment value. The newest “Ghostbusters” is an example of SJW wokeness that destroyed a good story. “La Cage Aux Fall” (SP?) is the only example of a gay story where gayness was driving the plot. (Heaven forbid that a straight actor be hired to fill one of the gay roles.)

I don’t see any good mix where gayness could drive a Christmas story. Perhaps the little boy who wants a sex change for Christmas? Oh, yeah, good family entertainment there.

In case you wondered why the Old Testament was so intolerant of homosexuals - it's because they corrupt every square inch of a society/culture once they get established.

God wanted to protect His fledgling people/nation from that. He wanted America to protect itself, too, but would we listen? NOOOooooo

The most overused and over glorified word presently in existence.

Diversity is neither good nor bad by definition. It’s effects are completely dependent on the context in which they exist and are applied.

Diversity of thought is generally good, diversity of action may or may not be a good thing. Diversity of people is neither good nor bad in and of itself but dependent on the people involved and the situation in which they are place

Forcing diversity into the mix especially when your dealing with cultures is dangerous and generally has the opposite effect of what is ultimately desired.

The only reason that the introduction of “diversity” of people worked so well in the 19th and 20th centuries of America is that the diverse peoples maintained only small bits of their original culture and assimilated to the common culture of Americanism. The “melting pot” integrated all disparate customs into one grand American society.

Hallmark used to run classic Columbo.

I have all the DVDS anyway so it doesn’t matter.

What is “gay Christmas movie” supposed to mean?


Well... You still are forced to travel from your high paced NYC office for business to a small, snow-glistening midwestern town. You still get into a ton of trouble and your high paced NYC boyfriend doesn’t seem to understand on the phone. He doesn’t even understand how charmed you are by the happy, simple people in the picturesque village, where everything is bright and beautiful and hot chocolate flows like water. You still meet the most handsome man you’ve ever seen, who promptly falls madly in love with you, but you start out not trusting him for some reason before you end the film in his passionate embrace.

Only this time you’re a dude.

If the Hallmark Channel is suddenly gonna cater to a tiny demographic like homos, then they should also produce shows about midgets in love or a couple with Down syndrome or 2 heterosexual circus clowns who fell in love in their clown car. Those shows would probably bring in better ratings than the homo movies, plus Hallmark would be even more “inclusive.” 🤣

“Caught Mommy Kissing Santa” to “Caught Daddy Kissing Santa”

” A Twinks First Christmas”

Not sure whether to laugh or cry.

I will never understand this pandering to a tiny - 2 per cent? - population at the risk of alienating the vast majority.

Doesn’t seem like a sound business plan, no matter how one ‘feels’ about homosexuality...

If so, then Well, bye, Hallmark.

All for 2% of the population.

D@mn fools.

petition reads.

“Hallmark should also know that if they give-in to the LGBT agenda, the LGBT activists will never be satisfied.

The above is so true.

THEY ALREADY HAVE TWO OR THREE DEDICATED CHANNELS.
