Ah, the men are bad channel...........

I can't believe I am defending Hallmark but it is definitely not "the men are bad". Usually the men are simply unaware of why the women is so great, rarely are the guys bad. I think you mean Lifetime. My wife is all about Hallmark.

The channel is geared towards women and the movies main character is usually a woman.  This usually makes the male lead one dimensional and fall into a typical male archetype.  Plus, Hallmark saves 25% hiring mostly women.

Well, he is from a small town, son of a farming family, and she is the big city beautiful actress. It's the traditional Hallmark plot.

I think that’s a stereotype of the Lifetime channel left over from the 90’s and 00’s

Right.

 

Somehow she's stranded in the town due to some large snow storm. The one bridge to the town is snowed over.

 

Josh is the towns handyman with a tool belt wearing flannel shirts.  Tall and handsome with really nice hair.

 

Once the bridge is cleared she makes the decision to go back to the big city breaking Josh's heart.

 

They show her pulling away in the limo breaking Josh's heart.

 

Then at the last second the limo turns around and she and Josh share a long embrace.

 

She sacrifices her career for Josh, true love.

 

The end

Hallmark isn't the men are bad channel, thats Lifetime. Hallmark however is the same four or five formulaic plots that they change little details about and rehash. My parents love the channel so when I am at their house I will catch a few minutes and I've then watched a couple at home that aren't bad.

 

That being said I did not watch the Chiefs movie but will gladly watch this trainwreck.
