Damn, mom, I’m never going to know what it feels like when someone refuses to change their life around entirely for my benefit? How sad. Somehow I’ll find a way to go on.
A Hallmark type movie. Don’t remember the name as I just use them sometimes as background noise, but it was the usual kind: woman unwillingly goes back to hometown, clashes with parent about career vs having a family, meets childhood sweetheart, plot, decides to stay at the end.
Yup. They usually change the details like having a farm or a local family business, but it’s generally the same framework.
I started watching them back when it was a new thing, they were welcomed wholesomeness.
Then it was for the actors they managed to trick into playing the roles - usually people from Sy-Fy series like Eureka and Stargate Atlantis. For a while it was said Hallmark became the place where the careers of actors came to die.
Eventually, i reached a stage where I barely watch and just listen, if even that.
Still, it’s somewhat soothing i suppose. I’ve never come to actively dislike them, despite the churn mill style.
“Without having kids, you’ll never understand what it feels like hearing you say that.”

I suppose I won’t. where’s the quote from?
Op’s mom.

That is a very Hallmark plot

that’s valid. all my knowledge of them in this decade comes from watching Jenny Nicholson videos about the genre so I can definitely see the appeal.
