It’s been over 20 years since cartoonist Peter Morley-Souter invented the only rule of the internet everyone actually agrees on: Rule No. 34, which says that if a thing exists, there is an X-rated version of it. It was true then and it’s true now. But I think the time has finally come to tack on an important addendum: Rule No. 34A: This also applies to Christmas movies.
Made-for-TV Christmas movies actually have a lot in common with adult entertainment. They’re cheap, they hit the spot and there’s more than you could ever possibly watch in one lifetime. And apparently you can make them about literally anything.
