Hallmark Channel should greenlight an LGBTQ-themed holiday movie in response to the same-sex ad controversy

Indiewire

"Hallmark has perfected its tried-and-true formula — generic, cozy, formulaic — over years, it wouldn’t be hard to simply swap one gender in its pile of un-produced scripts," says Jude Dry. "Better yet, solicit an up-and-coming LGBTQ writer to craft the script, hire an LGBTQ director and cast the movie with LGBTQ actors. In an ideal world, an LGBTQ Hallmark movie would be exactly like every other Hallmark movie, except with queer actors playing the estranged twins who decide to swap lives." ALSO: The good news is that if Hallmark greenlights an LGBTQ-themed holiday film, it'll likely be boring.
