The leads in these movies never seem to have any chemistry. I would rather just read are Harlequin romance.

I rarely if ever find the men attractive. Some of them are borderline creepy. There’s one with Alicia Witt where the whole time I’m like “she’s fucking hot and cute and this guy is….ready to go all Buffalo Bill

You don’t understand, men don’t have to be attractive, they just have to own a candy shoppe they opened with their dead wife and they may or may not be Santa. That’s all women need, it’s not like they can experience sexual arousal. That’s just science.

*Santa’s son.

But everything else, you’re not wrong lol

Oh here comes the woke word police. Pretty sure Santa’s son will get his father’s business when he dies or goes to prison for unfair labor practices and child trafficking soooooo.

Either way, what matters is that women are LEGALLY dead after the age of 24, so keep them out of Hallmark Original Movies.

Picturing your icon saying this lmao

I’ve seen a few with Bethanny Joy Lenz and she has chemistry with all hear leads. But she’s one of those actresses that has chemistry with anyone, even back in her Guiding Light days.

I've only seen Five Star Christmas with her but I think the issue there might have Victor Webster. I liked him on Mutant X but his Hallmark movies do nothing for me. Do you have a favourite Christmas movie with her?

Love the Jammy icon, it takes me back lol. Stephanie Gatschet should try a Hallmark movie.

I’ve never seen the Victor Webster ones. She recently did a cute one in France that was very charming. And another favorite of mine is one where she gets stranded in a Christmas town with a couple who are clearly Santa and Mrs. Claus and a coworker. Cute movies.

Jammy was EVERYTHING, no matter how messy they were. Their chemistry was insane. I think Stephanie retired from acting. I used to follow her on Insta and it seems she moved to San Diego and is a full time yoga instructor with a cute girl and got married. A shame too because she was pretty talented.

Thanks I will check them out. OTH was a trainwreck but I've had a soft spot for BJL since her Danny/Michelle days.

Yes! Tom and Stephanie's chemistry really was insane. Jammy was definitely must see tv for me. Hallmark should take note.

[browneyedguuurl]

She is the reason I even watched OTH in the first place.

I WISH Tom and Stephanie would act together again. It’s sadly never going to happen.
