I had some misgivings about this series knowing it might be heavy on the religious aspect but I have to say I'm enjoying it. Faith and God are so important in this family's lives and is brought into conversations often but it isn't over-the-top. They are not a perfect family by any means and I liked the different issues and conflicts that tested them.
I haven't read any of the books the series is based on, so it may be easier for me to like the stories and characters more than those who have read the books. In my experience I have always been disappointed in the changes made when books are condensed to fit television so I'm happy that I'm watching this with an unbiased view.
I would love to see more episodes in the coming years and do wish the episodes were longer in length. Happy to see this series on Amazon Prime Video!

I gave it a try, I really did. But after 45 minutes I hit delete on my PVR.
I'm quite sure actual real estate agents wouldn't act like these two did, trying to one-up each other to get a real estate listing. If they did, they wouldn't be selling my home. But as the story goes, they learn to work together and begin to like each other. Not exactly a new plot twist.
I'm not sure why Great American Family movies always have to have music playing in the background. Instead of adding to the movie, I find it annoying and distracting.
Pass on this one because there are much better Christmas movies out there.

I agree with some other viewers that this movie could have been so much more. With four generations of women there were so many stories that could have been told. The entire movie seemed to be just a lot of dialogue between family members with no real storyline other than it's Christmas. The only highlights for me were the dinners themed to various decades and maybe the final scene. Other than that, there was absolutely nothing to hold my interest.
Add the always present (and annoying) background music, some Christmas decorations and religious references and there you have it - a Great American Family Christmas movie.
