Ladies of the '80s: A Divas Christmas

These ladies are so sweet and there is great chemistry between them all. The tone and the sets are very sumptious and Christmassy too and it is good to see these actresses again after first seeing them back in the 1980s. I just wish they had all left their faces alone. They have all had far too much work done and the tooth veneers get in the way....the words are not pronounced properly. Linda Evans looks the best & the most natural. However, they all seem to have had fun making the film. It would have been great seeing naturally older women but it seems that is unforgivable in the States! Shame.

I really wanted to like it, as I enjoyed most of the ladies before in iconic roles, especially Morgan Fairchild and Nicolette Sheridan. But this flick suffers from very lame writing, and characters that miss the fire we know from earlier roles. It is like a weak rip-off of THESE OLD BROADS with Joan Collins and Debbie Reynolds, which wasn't perfect but much much better. DIVAS CHRISTMAS has some fun moments and it's nice to see these icons together, but I was hoping for more pizzaz. And, as other reviewers mentioned, the love story of the younger characters is especially weak, and their acting is bad.

The fact is we all grow old. Yes, these actresses have been well preserved (they sleep in full makeup). Yes, it's really really cheesy. Hooray for this gang of experienced actresses getting a chance to play a spin on their 80s characters, kind of. Those decadent evening soaps from the 1980s were amazing with their outrageously wealthy lifestyles, homes, lovers and raunchy behaviors. I was a young adult and remember being so excited to watch Knots Landing, Dallas and Falcon's Crest each week. The makeup, clothing and hair! I avoid Lifetime/ Hallmark shows due to the corny content but so glad I saw this, brings back lots of memories. I wish these actresses happiness in their golden years (note- Nicolette is actually much younger). Let's celebrate and embrace our years.

So wondering to see these beautiful ladies together. Grew up watching them. I loved their looks, fashion, etc then and love them now. I must say Linda Gray and Morgan Fairchild are my favorites here. This heartwarming, funny movie brings so much joy especially during the Christmas season . I hope they can do more shows like this all year round. So many older actors and actresses from back in the days can still do a lot in the entertainment industry. Thank you to these beautiful ladies and the creators, producers, writers, directors for doing this. Imagine bringing Joan Collins and Linda Evans back together!!!!

I loved Golden Girls. I loved These Old Bags. I would rather watch seasoned veterans instead of nubile youth any day. Except today.

This hurt. I've never seen people try so hard to hold onto the past. These actresses must have had more than beauty and glamour. They basically play older bimbos, not mature interesting women. I know this is fluff, but it isn't fun fluff. It tries so hard to be polite the only catty scene - the food fight - is a big yawn.

All of them seem the same, yet look misshapen, stretched and literally in pain. They seem in pain every time they move. All of them seem barely able to speak from facial surgeries or injections.

I've seen mature actresses in great roles giving great performances. This was just the opposite of life affirming.
