Yep, the painting the guy as a villain because he works hard. Meanwhile they don't give you enough context as to what type of job she has. So, you're left with trying to force yourself into into feeling empathy for her character even when she may have no authority to speak on anyone's work ethic. At least tell me she has a job as X with X hours, but she chooses to tell them to stuff as she wants a life. Then I can relate vs just seeing her as yet another lazily written female love interest.
This is so accurate it's scary good. The falling/tripping into the lead's arms, the male lead being Canadian, the black actor that is a side character only... it's in every Hallmark movie.
@DragonChild460 😂😂Oddly specific detail to pick up on & get irritated by, but yes! And guess what folks? Everyone of our white main leads has an infinite amount of money to travel across the country last minute for plot plotting 🙃. And if the lead is "relatable" by claiming to have money problems (yeah, unh huh), just take a look at all the extravagant Christmas decorations and multiple rooms in their homes. Why, that level of struggle is a goal we should all strive for 😌

Kris Single sounds like something I want to watch!! Great title, although I can see it more on Lifetime because with a title like that he better be juggling more than one love interest. Or make it Black and put it on BET, even better.

Simon James Also, if you pay close attention you will notice the fake sheets of snow covering the landscapes to make it look snowed in! Plus, it always starts snowing during a kiss or joyful moment on cue! It's hilarious... Not to mention the advertising they do for their sponsors...last year a canister of Folger's coffee got more air time than Lacey or Mariah on, "A Christmas Melody." This year it was Balsam Hill on almost every movie! I can't deny as cheesy, repetitive, and recycled as Hallmark movie's are they're my guilty pleasure! Lol
+History LVr They're my guilty pleasure too! I've definitely noticed how it starts to snow during a kiss and the Folger's coffee advertisements. I will definitely keep my eye out for those other things you suggested.
God, if I had a nickel for every "Engaged/Committed city girl goes to the country due to an unexpected family emergency and falls in love with a country boy she just met, dumping the fiance/boyfriend for him" movie Hallmark and Lifetime play every December... At least there was one original movie a few years ago where a married woman, pining after her rich ex-boyfriend, actually does get her wish and wakes up married to the ex... and then she realizes after 5 minutes that she made a huge mistake and spends the rest of the movie stalking her actual husband, who's dating someone else in this reality.
The chick from Mean Girls is in like 90% of these movies. But the Hallmark has been a channel just waiting to be parodied, surprised there isn't more or hasnt came earlier.
Lacy Chebert? Yup. She was also in that terrible Christian Mingle movie. Apparently, she's that "used to be famous, but is now extremely Christian" actress this sketch made fun of now.
Steven Miller I think he meant it in terms of Netflix’s recent quantity of quality approach when it comes to original content. Like Hallmark, they’re spitting out so many projects at once, no one can keep track anymore.
Ari Thomas The girl trapped in a snowglobe was an ABC Family movie. And there's TONS about the business girl going back and meets her high school sweetheart.
There was a Hallmark movie about a magic snowglobe that would grant any wish you asked of it. Presumably, if anyone asked for anything particularly horrifying, it didn't happen around Christmas.
First of all, this was damn hilarious...my favorite part was Canadian handsome. It's funny because they hit every beat that you see in every Hallmark Christmas movie. They're all filmed in Canada, there's always a boyfriend back in the city who just doesn't understand small town Christmas.
Omg I️ WORKED on several Hallmark movies as an extra. Two of them were Christmas and I️t was like over the top Winter Wonderland had exploded all over on the street...in July in Cali..also did a huge community Christmas cookie decorating scene like who does that? 😂
OMG! I think I saw you in "Deck the Holidays." And I bet your other movie is "Long Christmas Goodnight." Just kiddin, just kiddin. I made up those movies.
Trapped in a snow globe ⛄ 😂😂😂😂 Jessica Normal. Lol "he works a lot so it's okay to cheat on him." 😋😆 "Come on Come on, pick up! It's either me or Christmas, Lydia!!!!"🎅
It's defunct now, or at least was the last I looked, but there used to be a whole website called Hey! It's That Guy! devoted to character actors (obviously, the counterpart was Hey! It's That Girl!). A little like IMDb, but focused on these specific folks and, if I recall correctly, little profiles of at least some of them.
I know. I'm going to miss that. 😭 And don't forget the Target fake commercials (the one about how to deal with the 2016 election and the one about how to deal with a dysfunctional interracial family).
Especially since Franco was killing it as "Prince Santa". "Bring my reindeer around," said into a cellphone, no less (Prince Santa definitely modernizes). Does that also mean that Prince Santa is a serial monogamous? What does he do with the former wives? I see a sequel (or perhaps prequel) made for these films over on say A&E or Crime Channel where it shows Prince Santa as a serial killer of his wives, and his elves are his conspirators. It would be entitled, "Bad Killer Santa" (and also starring Franco).
Don't forget Candace Cameron Bure. And there maybe one non white person here and there, but they'll have a small part and never a lead part. I'm glad someone else noticed.
She is the sister of Kirk Cameron. It seems they both were targeted by aggressive evangelical Christians trying to convert young actors so they could use them for marketing their beliefs (another well known religious group does the same). Prior to that, neither were religious. It really worked with Kirk as he basically gave up his acting career entirely and used his fame to push religious videos and appear regularly on evangelical Christian TV channels. Cameron didn't do that but she is still very much into it.
Sometimes, I understand SNL's "Cut For Time" decisions. Somtimes, like this time, I really don't. There's no way they didn't have a worse piece they could've cut instead of this masterpiece.
YES ; HE'S CALLED " SON OF SANTA", ABBREVIATION , " S.O.S." ; OR , TO BE COMPLETELY CORRECT, " SON OF DADDY SANTA AND MAMA CLAUS, ABBREVIATION, S.O.D.S.A.M.C. .. WE SEE THAT "SATURDAY NIGHT LOSERS " , CAN DO OTHER THINGS BESIDES JUST PROPAGANDIZING AGAINST THE PRESIDENT .
My dad and I have been saying stuff like that for a while and my stepmom gets so mad because she loves Hallmark movies. It’s very nice to have a video to be able to show her now 😂😂😂
My favorite thing about this is that there's already a Christmas movie where a girl gets stuck in a snow globe, aptly named "Snowglobe". Except it was ABC Family instead of Hallmark, and the lead was black.
@@kokolatte825 nah Danica doesn't even come close to Lacey in terms of number of movies. Plus she seems to be the one that gets to do all the on location ones. Rome, Brussels, South Africa ect.
When are ya'll gonna learn, "Cut For Time" is just a title meant to gas you guys up. There's no way they didn't plan for this to drop before Christmas so it would get more traction.
Brooklyn exactly lmao. Tbh the only good thing they have is that you can truly watch them with your family and kids without fearing that a sex scene or crazy violence will show up and then embarrass you. I only watch so I will truly feel that it’s Christmas, they’re the few kinds of movies that I can watch with my grandmother and young niece, and it’s sometimes great to take a break from the psycho, dramatic, sex obsessed plots, even if the story is too predictable.
I forgot to mention he was in another Lifetime one called “Mother, May I sleep with Danger” 2016. He produced it, starred in it and wrote it😂 you can watch the trailer on UA-cam it says in it “from the twisted mind of James Franco” 😂
The single Mom works in a bakery that sells only muffins and lives in a 3500 sq ft Craftsmen style home with an amazing kitchen...! At least that’s what I’m told. 😬😬😬🙃
BAHAHAHAHA!!! i died with "her black coworker with no backstory," and also when i saw franco's crown when he was "prince santa." X'D omg, i tried to watch one of these, it was so friggin' corny, worse than the disney channel cheese when they remake cinderella 500 different times.
I never have understood "cut of time" sketches. After 40 years, you would think the show organizers would know that the show is always 90 minutes, and plan accordingly.
It's not from poor planning. They test out a spare sketch or two that they're on the fence about during the dress rehearsals (in front of an audience too) a few hours before, and decide between dress and live show the bits they want to tweak or just ditch based on whether they flopped with the audience, the sketch isn't paying off with that specific host or maybe it's too technically challenging to risk screwing up on live TV. It's smart to have a backup sketch and means they can also offer some online-only content that get millions of views on YT.
The cinematography is too good. These actually look like movies and not like someone rented a CANON T2i and hired the high school telecom team to produce and edit...
"black coworker with no backstory"
SO ACCURATE IT HURTS
There was a valentine day one where the female character had a "male friend" she would drink wine with and he mentioned the shoes she wanted were not on sale. Thats about as close as the have gotten.

“He works to much so it’s ok if I cheat on him” is the most ACCURATE hallmark staple I’ve ever heard 😂
I'm pretty sure there are non-Christmas themed romcoms out there that also have this as a trope.
The way that Kate McKinnon says that is funny, too!

YES ; HE'S CALLED " SON OF SANTA", ABBREVIATION , " S.O.S." ; OR , TO BE COMPLETELY CORRECT, " SON OF DADDY SANTA AND MAMA CLAUS, ABBREVIATION, S.O.D.S.A.M.C. .. WE SEE THAT "SATURDAY NIGHT LOSERS " , CAN DO OTHER THINGS BESIDES JUST PROPAGANDIZING AGAINST THE PRESIDENT .
superman superman can you not? Thanks
My dad and I have been saying stuff like that for a while and my stepmom gets so mad because she loves Hallmark movies. It’s very nice to have a video to be able to show her now 😂😂😂
It's sad cuz it's true. I feel ashamed for watching those movies, lol.
No shame, I would totally watch this along with every other Christmas movie from Hallmark!
I lost it at 'Canadian Handsome'😂
My Christmas wish is that you, SNL, make at least one long version of one of them.
My favorite thing about this is that there's already a Christmas movie where a girl gets stuck in a snow globe, aptly named "Snowglobe". Except it was ABC Family instead of Hallmark, and the lead was black.
Black lead with a backstory is 1000 years too soon for Hallmark xD Everything has to be as generic as possible.
In its final episode, the entire series "St. Elsewhere" was revealed to have taken place inside of a snowglobe.
My dad has these movies playing non-stop during November & December.
Gretchen Weiners is the Hallmark Channels Queen Bee 😂😂
omg, you love her and totally complimented her. that is soooo fetch!
Candace Cameron Bure is number 1 with Danica McKeller as the runner up. Gretchen Weiner could never.
@@kokolatte825 nah Danica doesn't even come close to Lacey in terms of number of movies. Plus she seems to be the one that gets to do all the on location ones. Rome, Brussels, South Africa ect.
*CHRISTMAS SANTA CHRISTMAS*
lol hallmark in a nutshell
Franco gets cut for time?
okrajoe 4th time one the show, he's lucky he got a monologue intro.
That said, some of the skits on this episode were dang good. This one, while cute, not as funny.
You cut Franco, I cut you!
👆
When are ya'll gonna learn, "Cut For Time" is just a title meant to gas you guys up. There's no way they didn't plan for this to drop before Christmas so it would get more traction.
My mom and sister love these movies and this is spot on. I watch these movies to just say everything wrong with them.
Chris Bearstick looks a lot like James Franco
They're both "Canadian Handsome"
I wish my name was Chris Bearstick. I would be scratching my back on tree bark all the time.
If I could marry James Franco by hitting my head and getting amnesia, I’d run head first into a brick wall
Do you still stand by this statement now that Franco has been revealed to have been a predatory sex creep?
"This is our Super Bowl." LMFAO!
I love Hallmark! What a wonderful line-up of new movies. It truly wouldn't be Christmas without the Hallmark Channel!
I hate these movies but still watch them. I have a problem 😂
They're so bad but it doesn't feel like Christmas if you don't watch them 😂
Brooklyn exactly lmao. Tbh the only good thing they have is that you can truly watch them with your family and kids without fearing that a sex scene or crazy violence will show up and then embarrass you.
I only watch so I will truly feel that it’s Christmas, they’re the few kinds of movies that I can watch with my grandmother and young niece, and it’s sometimes great to take a break from the psycho, dramatic, sex obsessed plots, even if the story is too predictable.
I clicked on this just to see that guy who is never in skits, and whenever he is in a skit the cut it. Glad he got one almost 20 words this time.
Franco did a lifetime movie so he knows how accurately cringey Lifetime and Hallmark are
westie kid Wait, Really?!?!
Yup it was called ‘High School Lover’ (2017) he produced and started in it.
he should do a Hallmark film LOL
I forgot to mention he was in another Lifetime one called “Mother, May I sleep with Danger” 2016. He produced it, starred in it and wrote it😂 you can watch the trailer on UA-cam it says in it “from the twisted mind of James Franco” 😂
James Franco will literally do anything in any medium at least once.
The single Mom works in a bakery that sells only muffins and lives in a 3500 sq ft Craftsmen style home with an amazing kitchen...!
At least that’s what I’m told. 😬😬😬🙃
Me and my thirty cats love these movies......
Christmas is all about being generous,joy,happyness and love
Accurate portrayal of the Hallmark Channel
The way Melissa hits that pole is wonderful in my opinion. Really shows you the true meaning of Christmas.
"HALLMARK: This is our Super Bowl." Soooo true!! Lol! 😂😂
Man they should NOT have cut this one. Hysterical!
Lmao 🤣 “so it’s ok if I cheat on him “ why is this every hallmark movie
Nichole smith I know right!!
“It’s either me or christmas, Lydia!”
BAHAHAHAHA!!! i died with "her black coworker with no backstory," and also when i saw franco's crown when he was "prince santa." X'D omg, i tried to watch one of these, it was so friggin' corny, worse than the disney channel cheese when they remake cinderella 500 different times.
Lol this is so true, but for some reason I still watch every single one and love them!!!!
Don't tell me. They set my Xmas mood. I'd like it involved even the people who earn less sometimes.
At least once in a while.
Remember to Hallmark Black people aren't allowed to be the lead characters.
Jonathan J. Or Lifetime Channel 😆😆 But I heard Lifetime changing that now!
There was like one lifetime movie where the lead was a black girl. 😂 Just one
Bat Wayne lmao which one??? They did do one in Puerto Rico.
madz4prez "Killer Coach." It's a swimming one.
Bat Wayne Thanks! I'll look it up.
"This is our Superbowl!" Good line.
I never have understood "cut of time" sketches. After 40 years, you would think the show organizers would know that the show is always 90 minutes, and plan accordingly.
Curt Randall I assume it's in case they decide to pull a skit at the last minute.
It's not from poor planning. They test out a spare sketch or two that they're on the fence about during the dress rehearsals (in front of an audience too) a few hours before, and decide between dress and live show the bits they want to tweak or just ditch based on whether they flopped with the audience, the sketch isn't paying off with that specific host or maybe it's too technically challenging to risk screwing up on live TV. It's smart to have a backup sketch and means they can also offer some online-only content that get millions of views on YT.
Or, at the very least, extend the show to two hours.
The cinematography is too good. These actually look like movies and not like someone rented a CANON T2i and hired the high school telecom team to produce and edit...
I didn't even realize the video had started at first. 😂 I thought it was a legit add
LMAO 😂.. that's sad it's even that close! 😂🤙
the christmas christmas christmas song at the end is too underrated
