Today, we're going to talk about Christmas movies that we “hate”...or maybe that’s too strong of a word – so let’s use…“dislike.” While we love the people who play the characters in many of these movies, sometimes some things just don’t work well together.
HIGHLIGHTS FROM THIS WEEK’S SHOW:
- What is the one item you have to have in your Christmas stocking?
- Why we didn’t really dig Miracle on 34th Street (1947)
- There were a lot of things in A Christmas Story that we just didn’t get.
- People loved “How the Grinch Stole Christmas” but we thought the movie was just too long and it just felt forced.
- Other movies that don’t work for us: Arnold Schwarzenegger’s “Jingle All the Way,” Will Ferrell’s “Elf,” and the 1954 movie “White Christmas”
- “The Family Stone” and ”Love the Coopers” are sad Christmas movies that don't work for us either.

It’s 1996 in rural North Carolina, and an oddball crew makes history when they pull off America’s third largest cash heist. But it’s all downhill from there. Join host Johnny Knoxville as he unspools a wild and woolly tale about a group of regular ‘ol folks who risked it all for a chance at a better life. CrimeLess: Hillbilly Heist answers the question: what would you do with 17.3 million dollars? The answer includes diamond rings, mansions, velvet Elvis paintings, plus a run for the border, murder-for-hire-plots, and FBI busts.
