Hallmark: The Heart of TV

Hallmark Channel

Beginning in 2011, the Hallmark Channel began a yearly holiday celebration with their Countdown to Christmas event in November through December. Combining Christmas classics with new Christmas movies and fresh additions to their franchise series, Hallmark Channel fills the weeks before the holiday with as much Christmas programming as possible. With Hallmark&#39;s Countdown to Christmas premieres starting in late October, they&#39;re making sure you get the best Christmas movies possible, as often as possible, during their long Countdown to Christmas movie lineup.

Offering dozens of seasonal variations on two folks working together while falling in love, such as My Christmas Dream, A December Bride, and Christmas in Love, Hallmark brings romance to the holiday. Their <a class="edS-cl" href="https://www.ranker.com/list/romantic-christmas-movies/ranker-film?ref=internalCrossLinking_keyword">romantic Christmas movies</a> also include films like The Sweetest Christmas and Enchanted Christmas, where the holiday helps two people remember how much they love each other.

It&#39;s not all romance during Hallmark&#39;s Christmas lineup. From Santa struggling to save the season in The Case For Christmas to a <a href="https://www.ranker.com/list/greatest-guardian-angels-and-fairy-godparents/ranker-characters" target="_blank">guardian angel</a> helping someone understand her own worth in Debbie Macomber&#39;s Mr. Miracle, there&#39;s a Christmas movie for just about everybody. Two Hallmark Hall of Fame movies have even premiered during the Countdown to Christmas. A Heavenly Christmas stars Kristin Davis a Christmas Angel in training and Just In Time For Christmas returns Christopher Lloyd to the role of quirky time traveler as he assists a woman in making a decision that will change her life.

Each of these films is a cozy gift to keep your heart warm this holiday season, but which of these Hallmark Countdown to Christmas movies do you think are the best?

Some Christmas films have, for one reason or another, become true classics of the season. Think, for example, of older films like&nbsp;It’s a Wonderful Life&nbsp;or even ones of relatively newer vintage like&nbsp;A Christmas Story.&nbsp;Indeed, in some ways it’s the films that have remained underappreciated which often provide new ways of appreciating the holiday.Some, to be sure, are a little&nbsp;<a target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer" href="https://www.ranker.com/list/naughty-christmas-movies/zach-seemayer">on the naughty side,</a> while others are bleaker than one might expect from a film celebrating what is supposed to be the happiest (and most wonderful) time of the year. All of them, however, deserve a greater consideration from those who love everything to do with Christmas.

Sitting down for a big yuletide meal is an annual ritual for millions of&nbsp;families. The best Christmas dinner scenes in movies capture -- and, if we&#39;re being honest, sometimes exaggerate -- that experience. Many Christmas-themed films use such sequences because they offer a lot of important possibilites. For starters, showing the characters sitting down to eat together is realistic. There is also an opportunity to pull various elements together in a meaningful&nbsp;way. Everyone can talk, fight, or make up. Aspects&nbsp;of their personalities can be revealed. If the writing is good, these moments become highlights of the films.&nbsp;

The most famous Christmas dinner scenes in movies include the Griswold clan dealing with dry turkey and the doddering Aunt Bethany mistaking&nbsp;the Pledge of Allegiance for grace in National Lampoon&#39;s Christmas Vacation. And who could forget the Parker family eating at the only open establishment, a Chinese restaurant, in A Christmas Story? Those are funny Christmas dinner scenes. Others are more dramatic, like the one in Same Kind of Different as Me, in which tensions between a family rise to the surface. Believe it or not, there are even a couple of great horror examples.

For some time now, Christmas has been a terrifying holiday masquerading as the &quot;most wonderful time of the year.&quot; As much as we may love Santa Claus and his predecessors for shelling out presents to good boys and girls during the yuletide season, we mostly ignore that it&#39;s a reward system with traumatic consequences for a social contract none of us ever agreed to.

Yet, Santa is the least offensive (aside from being the de facto overlord) of these characters as he only deals with those who end up on his &quot;Nice List.&quot; But what happens to those who end up on his Naughty List? Do they get a lump of coal? Perhaps; in some traditions -&nbsp;ancient and modern -&nbsp;we bad boys and girls don&#39;t get off so easily.

Here's to Beer!

Beer

The best Christmas beer includes a wide range of domestic and imported beers. Many breweries are making special seasonal beers to appeal to holiday drinkers. Some of these brews combine various Christmastime flavors like vanilla, ginger and cinnamon to give the beer a nice, high-quality flavor. Others are just dark and stout, offering up a classic winter beer to please even the pickiest beer connoisseur. This list includes some of the best beers offered during the holiday season, so be sure to vote for the ones you've tried and loved (and vote down the beers you don't think even Drunk Santa would imbibe).Some of the most popular, perennial favorite Christmas beers include Tröegs Mad Elf (a wonderful mix of sweet and sour), Goose Island Christmas Ale (a spicy, aromatic brown ale), St. Bernardus Christmas Ale (a creamy, fruity holiday beer) and Anchor Brewing Company's "Our Special Ale," which is slightly different each year. Anchor's been making their Christmas beer since the mid-1970s, by the way. Whether your taste runs more to a lighter, Belgian blend or a dark, hearty stout, there really is a Christmas beer for everyone.One thing to note about many of these Christmas beers: The alcohol content may be slightly higher than a traditional, domestic beer. Keep that in mind, because once you find the perfect Christmas brew, it's quite easy to overdo things. Nothing squelches a great holiday gathering among friends and family like a killer Christmas hangover. Ho ho ho!
