A Nonsense Christmas with Sabrina Carpenter

I am a bit of an old soul and never get into new musical artists but I was impressed with the strong talent and lovely voice Sabrina has. She outshines all her guest performers by miles and shows how some of them can't sing a basic song. But Sabrina's wit, charisma, humour and smile is contagious. It should get viewers smiling and easily into a nonsense mood for the holidays. Also kudos to her for taking on this special as there could be fears it would bomb. My only suggestion would have been to include a story to make it more fun for viewers to follow along and have a final song session with all the musical acts. Overall harmless and fun treat.

10/10. No notes. Thank you Sabrina for bringing us all a holiday tradition of snuggling up by the fire and watching this masterpiece of a special. Actress Sabrina is finally back as well!!! We missed her so dearly. (Get her back on SNL btw, wth are we doing???) Her vocals, outfits, skits, jokes, and lineup was all so incredibly amazing. She has done it yet again, making hit after hit. I'm in shock that she played Cindy Lou Who? It sounds even more incredible live with the piano and violins. Will be watching many more times in the next few days, that's for sure. I know for sure that everybody who watched this had the best 50mins of their year. Thank you to the singer, actress, comedian, producer, dancer, Sabrina Carpenter!!

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.

7/10

Does this special truly need a review? Not really. You're either gonna watch it or you're not. I happened to watch it, not because I'm a Sabrina Carpenter fan, but rather I follow her on social media and I'm very entertained by her.

My first introduction with her was on "Girl Meets World" and I thought she wasn't bad in that. I liked "Boy Meets World" and since then I've only followed her from a distance. Honestly this special was not bad. It's funny, it's entertaining, but it's too short. I think given the time she could definitely do a 90 minute special that shows off more of her music.

I didn't know many of the guest stars that appeared other than Shania Twain, and very surprisingly, Sean Astin who was a great Santa Clause. It's a simple Christmas special. Sabrina knows what she wants and she delivers it with some quirk. It finishes spectacularly with her great song "A Nonsense Christmas" where she still keeps it family friendly.

It's honestly a blast of a special. I'll say that honestly as someone who doesn't listen to her songs, but she knows her audience and she knows who's watching and that's what makes it great. Oh, and you learn everything you need to know about her in fifty minutes.... She just wants to be stuffed.

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.
