Vad tycker jag om årets Miracles of Christmas?

 

Det faktum att Hallmark delar upp sina julfilmer på två olika kanaler, med två olika koncept, var något jag inte visste innan i år. Därför har jag inget att jämföra med, och därför är jag extra exalterad i år. Men jag måste faktiskt säga att startfältet verkar väldigt bra i år, ändå. Det finns många filmer som intresserar mig, speciellt eftersom att Movies & Mysteries filmerna verkar ha mer twists and turns än de som visas på vanliga Hallmark. 

 

Vilka filmer ser jag mest fram emot?

 

Detta är en helt omöjlig fråga, eftersom jag inte riktigt vet hur dessa filmer kommer att vara. Har inte riktigt någon historia med dem, som sagt. Men om jag ska nämna några som låter intressanta utifrån handlingarna, så är det Christmas Bells are Ringing, Time for Me to Come Home for Christmas och Return to Christmas Creek. Men sedan tror jag även att det kan bli så att många kommer att överraska mig. Jag hoppas det i alla fall.
