tkdguy Posted November 2, 2020 Report Share Posted November 2, 2020 During Halloween there are a lot of horror flicks on TV. After that, the Christmas movies begin. I know not every country celebrates Thanksgiving, but has anyone else noticed a lack of Thanksgiving movies on TV? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tjack Posted November 2, 2020 Report Share Posted November 2, 2020 Thanksgiving movies are a little more iffy for the networks. Unless your network is targeted for a demographic that won’t have any objections, like the Hallmark channel, then you could leave yourself open to protests from people objecting to the treatment of Native Americans. Christmas movies are just the safer bet. For things like this I always rely on the Robert A. Heinlein quote. “Whenever you ask, Why did “they” do this thing or that, the answer is always money.” Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cancer Posted November 2, 2020 Report Share Posted November 2, 2020 Much more so than the other holidays, Thanksgiving is Football Weekend. * Cancer is proud to have posted on page 666 of this thread * Pariah and Logan D.

death tribble Posted November 2, 2020 Report Share Posted November 2, 2020 It's impossible for words to describe what is necessary to those who do not know what horror means.

Anybody else who wants to watch their 10 week long marathon of Christmas movies is just gravy for them. P.S. I just noticed that we’re on page 666. I don’t know what to do with that, but there’s got to be a joke there somewhere. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I make no disparaging remarks about your family, I’m only talking about a demographic that company is looking to. I like watching MTV2’s showings of all the Prince movies, but I don’t think that channels really targeted at 53 year old disabled white guys....do you?🧑🦽 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
