Michael Bolton's Big, Sexy Valentine's Day Special

Have you waited for another great musical special produced by Netflix? Another A Very Murray Christmas? You should keep waiting. Even your memories of Michael Bolton and his hairy chest at the sun-setting beach with running horses are sexy (in 80s way), this isn't even a big or a sexy thing. This is some kind of goofy sketch show interrupted by Micheal Bolton songs. Even the mission was very optimistic.

MBBSVDS wants to help Santa to secure conceived 75k newborns for upcoming Christmas. But I know one thing - Sorry Michael, only newly- made-kids will be when people choose not to watch this show and rather have simple sex.

2 stars only for songs.

What a smart writing and direction. On 2 occasions I really laughed out loud and there were cringy moments as well also absurdity at it's best.

After Santa tells Michael Bolton that he needs 75,000 new babies by Christmas to meet toy supply, Michael Bolton hosts a sexy telethon to get the world to start making love.

While there are some duds within this special (notably the "cupid shuffle" skit), this really is a fine attempt at a comeback for Michael Bolton. His new association with Lonely Island and this funny, movie-loving version of himself is perfect. Whether it was him or Samberg who developed it, it works.

Not coincidentally, many of the songs performed by Bolton also appear on his newest album. On this, he covers some of the classic movie songs... which again raises the question, is this sincere, or part of an elaborate ruse?

This is one of the funniest bits of television I've ever seen. Ridiculous. Hilarious. Who knew Michael Bolton could be so funny? Who knew something so ridiculous would become our holiday tradition? Not me.

I can only assume that someone watched the Captain Jack Sparrow skit and decided to reach out to Michael about this fever dream of a script. It's bananas. Random visits from 80s and 90s stars mixed with todays comedy personalities. And the skits? Old Time Rock.and Roll? Michael Sheen, you almost made me break a rib. Is it stupid? Yes. Ridiculous? Absolutely. Is it far funnier than it should be. Watch and laugh.

Had to create an IMDB account just to review this amazing movie. It was pure comedy gold and let's be honest no one can get enough Michael Bolton in their lives 😉
