The first episode of "Twin Peaks" is a classic. It was one of the best films ever made in the 1990's regardless of the medium. It was something you could not take your eyes off of.

Much has been made about the fact David Lynch never wanted to solve the murder of Laura Palmer. When the mystery went on & on viewers got mad and then tuned out. I stuck with the show until the end. I must say as a viewer "The public was sold on a mystery of Laura Palmer" and it was the biggest mystery since "Who Shot J.r.".

As viewers We invested our time into the show. As season one winded down the mystery was not solved. 4 Months later with the season 2 premiere it still wasn't solved and that was the final straw for most people. (It also didn't help that ABC put the show on Saturdays).

By the time the show solved the mystery (ABC FORCED David LYNCH TO DO SO) the show had already run out of gas. In May of 1990 on Donahue Mark Frost promised viewers that "When the death is solved it may open up Pandora's Box of other strange things). Well that didn't happen. The show had no master plan. It became a weekly exercise of weirdness after the mystery was solved.

I still however enjoyed the show but I think after the murder was solved the show should of ended the season then. It would of gave them time to come up with another story-line. Instead the show kept going but had no focus until the last few episodes.

It is still a show worth watching. I can't wait for the new show.

Not all "Christmas Television Movies" are bad. Some of them are but this film "Snow" is very good. It is "Christmas Magic".

In this film Ashley Williams plays a zookeeper who unknowingly has one of Santa's stolen reindeer in her zoo.

Nick Snowden, who is really Santa Claus, falls for Sandy Brooks, a pretty zookeeper who works at the zoo from which he must rescue Buddy, a young reindeer who has not yet learned to fly. He needs her help to get Buddy out, so he follows her home. Nick meets Lorna, the landlord and owner of the boarding house where Sandy stays. She thinks Nick is a tenant, gets to know him, and lets him stay in the boarding house. Nick meets Hector, whose mother is a postal worker. Hector figures out that Nick is Santa Claus. Nick meets Sandy and falls for her. Sandy falls for him too and is unaware that he is Santa Claus. She helps Nick get Buddy out of the zoo and back to the North Pole. Nick usually tele- port himself in and out by mirror, but the only way the mirror works is by using North Pole snow. Buck Seger is a hunter who works at the zoo and has a crush on Sandy. He sees Nick as a rival and researches that Buddy is from the North Pole. He plans to sell Budd.

I loved this film. I will watch it again

This film is almost one of those that you will "love it" or "hate it". Now I will admit this television film is not perfect but it reminds me of a tone that the Disney Live Action Films had in the 1960's and 1970's".

What the story is about a woman named Wendy. She is trying to save her family business. It is a candy store that was started by her late father. She runs the shop with her mother. She also has a small child.

Seeing that she needs money fast she goes to stay with her friend Angie and gets a job at a family owned department store and she slowly falls for Tom one of the owners. This also makes her a target of a Teanna who is out for all sorts of blood.

The film is not perfect however if you like "Christmas films" then you will love this.

This is show is about as good as television gets. Glenn Close proves that she is more than Norma Desmond or Alex Forrest. In this show nothing is safe people can't be trusted and human casualties only matter if you can put a dollar amount the loss of their life.

What is great about the show you don't know what to expect. The FATAL FLAW is that there is too many characters. You need to watch every episode more than once to see "who hates who" and "Who killed who & why".

This review however is only for the first 2 seasons. We binged watch this episodes in 8 days so everything was fresh in our minds but we still got a little lost about some details.

So if you watch this pay very close attention. The plot gets confusing and you might have to watch every episode (In Season 2) twice just so you can keep up.

He says that h was there when they shot this in New York. Well what a liar this was shot in Boston. So you can trust his opinion. He lied about the location so that tells me he most likely has not seen this film or he hates women comedians!

In this show "Gilda Radner" does R Rated Material of her famous characters we first were introduced to on "Saturday Night live".

Gilda Raner works her butt off in this show. She was a very gifted comedian. The standout here is "Roseann Roseannadanna".

Genuine laughs every minute. Available on DVD. You need to see this. Once you watch this you will see that "Gilda Radner" was the best female cast member that "Saturday Night Live" ever had.

Christmas movies are enjoyable. They are family friendly & have lots of heart. By the end of most these films you feel great. My favorite films are always have a "Real Christmas" flare to them. I love films that have "Snow" in them. I also love it when they do incorporate what" Christmas" really is about.

Now as a Christian I was looking forward to watching this film after I read the back cover of the DVD. After I saw this film all I can say is "The general idea of the film was good but the film itself fails to be even remotely entertaining"

The plot was really truthful about the teaching of Christ but you get hit over the head with the "Message" and so the message gets "lost".

The screenplay was amateurish. The sets were not great and the acting was the worse.

"Christmas Grace" tells the story of two rival toy store owners during Christmas time. Gary, who runs an honest business and has a good relationship with his customers. Everything is running smooth for Gary until he hears of a new bigger store opening up across the street from him. This owner, Jim, is a ruthless businessman who will stop at nothing to grow his business and eliminate his competition. Since his most immediate competition happens to be Gary s store, he sets his target on him. As the story unfolds it becomes very clear that God is at work in the lives of these two men, and Gods Grace and Providence work out in ways neither one of them could of imagined.

If you want to see how "NOT" to make a film this is a great example. This film could of been better had a better writer was brought in and gave a polish to the dialog.

This film should be remade but with a more talented creative team. TheWriter/Director of "Christmas Grace" Keith Perna has no talent of either.

If you are under 50 you know miss the good old days of "The Tonight Show" with Johnny Carson. The "Johnny Carson Era" is the gold standard. When Jay Leno hosted it least we had more clever segments and a funny opening MONOLOGUE.

However Jimmy Fallon show is not clever or funny. It needs improvement fast! Plus he has an annoying phony laugh.

His side kick Steve Higgins looks like a refuge from the 1950's. His "Games" are stupid and boring to watch. At times the guest look bored playing them. His interviewing also weak. .

If you want to watch a late night show that has better jokes watch his completion.

Jimmy please stop your phony laugh. Get rid of Steve Higgins and those games. Steve Cobert is beating you for a reason.

I have been a fan of Nancy McKeon since her "Facts of Life" days. She always made interesting films and this was no exception.

Now I know people get sick & tired twists on "It's a Wonderful Life" but this in reality isn't that. What this is about a modern woman who is riding high in her career and she doesn't ever see herself married with children. Then On Christmas Eve day she gets in a car wreck and wakes up to find herself married to a man she has never met. She also has 2 children.

The film is worth watching because the cast is great and they make the materiel pop. The dinner table scene at the end makes this worth watching. I cried because I have been in situations with a parent criticizing everything about my life and someone that I loved having my back!

Seek this film out. It is a winner

If you want to see a great movie track this down. It is a miracle that a film this great was made for television. For having a limited budget the director works wonders with camera movements and fancy editing. There is not one false note in this movie.

I know many people for some reason do not like Tori Spelling but she plays a mega frigid bitch here and she is great. The nastier her character gets the nicer Holy gets. (I HIGHLY DOUBT THEY USED TORI'S REAL SINGING VOICE)

The plot is not very complex which fine. This is just about a singing contest at Christmas time! The vocal arrangements are exciting and full of energy. For a movie with a very limited budget the director made the most with camera set-ups and locations. It shows there is true talent in front and behind the camera. There is 2 singing numbers that take place in a warehouse but the director used that environment to his advantage. The whole movie however is never boring. .

Now why there has not been a DVD release is shocking. The film almost sings "Repeated Viewing is a Must".

I hope in the future Tia Mowrey, Andy Gala, Jonathan Patrick Moore, Jason Rogel, and Megan Kathleen Duffy get cast in more projects. They made a great ensemble.
