A Nonsense Christmas with Sabrina Carpenter

Ok, for all the Scrooges giving this a bad review, what exactly were you expecting? An Emmy?? It's a Christmas special. It was 100 percent what you would want and expect. Great cameos, cheesy skits, and shameless puns. The songs were a blast, and full of the innuendos one would expect from Sabrina. Time to lighten up a bit , and enjoy the ride! This is a Christmas special I could see me watching each year. I would love to see other artists have a truly good time without worrying if it looks perfect. The bloopers at the end were a lot of fun too. Bravo to the producers and crew who brought this together!

Don't listen to the haters, it's actually good, have seen it twice, this Xxxl snl with steroids, with cool music and musicians. She is not trying to be Marylin or Madonna, like some one said here, she is her self, funny and a true with her humor and style we love . She has a sense of humor, she loves to sing and entertain, this is about that. The vibe is everything, it's funny, nostalgic, and fun to watch, we need more of this, hope Netflix makes a special of her concert. The fans are going too love this, we get her, and this. It is so her with a holiday vibes. Love every thing about it will watch over and over. Must see.

Opinion on A Nonsense Christmas with Sabrina Carpenter (8/10):

I thoroughly enjoyed A Nonsense Christmas with Sabrina Carpenter. The special captures the essence of the holiday spirit with a perfect mix of music, humor, and a cozy, light-hearted atmosphere. Sabrina's energy is infectious, and her musical performances shine, especially with her catchy original songs like A Nonsense Christmas. The integration of Christmas classics, along with her unique spin, brings a fresh twist to the festive season.

However, while the humor and musical numbers were engaging, some of the sketches felt a bit over-the-top, which could have been toned down to create a more balanced flow. I also felt that the guest appearances could have been expanded, as they added a fun dynamic but were a bit brief.

All in all, A Nonsense Christmas delivers a joyful, quirky experience that fans of Sabrina will appreciate, even if it's not a perfect masterpiece. It's a solid holiday special worth watching for its warmth, charm, and catchy tunes.

I enjoyed but know for a fact I won't rewatch. When I think of a Christmas Special it's something you want to watch time and time again when the holidays come around. This is something that feels like an SNL segment, one off. It is missing something and I spent the whole special looking for it. Also the fact that Chappell Roan's end "blooper" is her complaining that the outfit she's in is straight is so weird to me when it's Sabrina's special and clearly what she wanted them to wear. The length of the special was perfect with little segments and showing us the behind the scenes of the shots as it's being shot. But again, it was just missing something.

Sabrina Carpenter may well be on her way to Ariana Grande-like status in the pop music scene. The only reason she isn't there already is because she got trapped in some bad Disney music contracts that forced her to make middling, family-friendly pop for a number of years. Now, freed to pursue her own pursuits, Sabrina leans into that tongue-in-cheek, double entendre brand with this Nonsense Christmas special.

Basically, Nonsense Christmas is a collection of 6-7 Sabrina tunes (some of them duets, like with Shania Twain or Chappell Roan, amongst others), with comedy skits interspersed between the musical set pieces.

Because Sabrina's whole image is so "cringe", it is hard to give an event like this the full 10/10 star treatment. Granted, I don't get too fussed about it because she unapologetically leans into that image, but at times it will have you rolling your eyes as opposed to laughing out loud.

How can Carpenter largely get away with this? Because she's got the pipes. Her Fruitcake Christmas mini-album is an absolute holiday masterpiece, and her other tunes of late have rocketed to the top of all charts. Sabrina can really sing, and that's how (at least for the moment) she can get away with the dirty puns and raunchy-if-fun persona--because the vocals always back it up.

Overall, I enjoyed this Nonsense Christmas special. Nothing that will go down in the annals of holiday music specials, to be sure, but fun enough in that it knows exactly what it wants to be--Sabrina's pristine vocals mixed with cringy humor--and executes it perfectly.
