My husband absolutely adored these because they were wholesome with no gratuitous sex or violence. He was a conservative Christian and these were some of the few shows he could really enjoy unreservedly. (I doubt he would have been pleased to see a gay story, though. He's not around to ask, unfortunately.)
I find them predictable and banal. But to each his own. He would watch a Hallmark movie in one room and I'd be in the other room watching Criminal Minds or something LOL
Apparently they have in recent times, my mom stopped watching them because they "started to put the gays in them."
We used to call it Schlock not sure if that term is still used
It's usually used to describe movies like Ghost Rider, Tremors, Con Air
Tremors isn't schlock. Some of the sequels, maybe, but Tremors is a classic.
That's not in Hallmark's demo.
