First-Ever Lifetime Holiday Movie With A Sex Scene Is Here

It's that time of year again: Lifetime Christmas movie time!

If you've seen just one Lifetime, or Hallmark holiday movie, you've seen them all! If you haven't, let me help. Here is the plot of every Lifetime or Hallmark holiday movie.

It's two hours long, of course. Meet the big-city career woman who is far too busy for love, because of her career. But for some reason she has to move to a small town. She meets the most handsome (in the whole town) local bachelor. He teaches her how to appreciate the true spirit of the holidays, and he teaches her what love is all about. At one hour and fifty nine minutes into the movie, it starts snowing and they kiss. Oh, and sometimes there is a dog.

Nope -- no sex. EVER. We only imagine there is after the movie ends. But there is no follow up, so we don't know.

Well, stop what you're doing right now and listen to this! "A Cowboy Christmas Romance," is the first Lifetime holiday movie with a SEX SCENE. Whaaaat? How? "A Cowboy Christmas Romance," debuts Dec. 9, on Lifetime. According to Variety Magazine, there is indeed an actual sex scene.

Jana Kramer has been in several Lifetime movies. I know this because of the pandemic when I watched holiday movies all December. There was nothing else to do and nothing to get you in the holiday spirit. But, these movies helped. She was in several that I saw, and she is in this new one.

In a recent podcast and according to The Messenger, Kramer said the main male character (the most handsome single guy in town, of course) " . . . Lays me down on some hay, and then we, you know.”  “Obviously, it’s still Lifetime, it’s still family. But it was pushing limits there, too… I was so happy that they really left it all in there.”

I have to be honest -- I can't wait to see this movie! Sex in a Lifetime holiday movie? BRING IT ON!

Spoiler alert: Someone has a vintage truck. And all the women walk just fine in heels -- in the snow.

The National Toy Hall of Fame announced its Class of 2023 inductees, according to the Strong National Museum of Play.

Think back to when you were a kid. What was your favorite toy? I loved my Hoppity Horse, Spirograph, Etch-A-Sketch, and my Wood Burning Set. Which my mom took away for a short while, because I burnt the new green shag carpet. Ahhh, the memories.

Some of the simplest toys brought us such joy. And as you can see, those simple toys have earned their place mong the greats.

Drum roll, please... Thank you!

1.  Baseball cards. According to the Library of Congress, the first baseball card goes back to around 1865. So it's high time these collectables were inducted. the gum was the best!

2.  Cabbage Patch Kids. Most of you reading this probably had one, Or, your kids did. They were huge in the 1980's, and a lot of people still have them. Because remember - you were going to retire with the money you made off of them later. Anyone living on that Cabbage Patch money? That's what I thought.

3.  Nerf. Vintage is the New Old says the very first Nerf product was a four-inch foam ball that Parker Brothers started selling in 1969.  It was the first official INDOOR ball. How fun! We could now throw a ball in the house, and it was fun!

4.  The Fisher-Price Corn Popper. Do you remember pushing this around as a toddler? It wasn't actually nominated, but they inducted it as a bonus in honor of the Hall of Fame's 25th anniversary. It beat out four other "forgotten" toys.

The nine other finalists didn't get enough votes to make it in, including two toys that had a big year::  Ken dolls and the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles.

The other toys that didn't make the cut are Battleship, Bingo, Bop-It, Slime, Choose Your Own Adventure, Connect 4, and the Little Tikes red car - a classic! Maybe next year

Here are some others that I, personally, think should be in the Toy Hall of Fame.

Remember the beautiful "dionk" sound it would make when you hit your brother or sister over the head? It's just thin cardboard, so there was no injury. Just sheer humiliation because of the sound.

You were immediately Captain America if you carried the trash can lid! Or, you had a sled for those snow days. It was a multi-purpose item, and we loved it.

Our first phone, which actually got better reception than most phones now. You couldn't text, and there were no apps. And definitely no selfies -- which now we consider a blessing. But we got by.

Refrigerators used to come in a box that was just as big as the fridge. You could make it into a house with actual rooms! Or a limo, and drive (ok, walk) your friends around the neighborhood. It was truly one of the most fabulous things ever.

Yes, dirt. If you added water you could make a mud pie. The simplicity was beautiful, and the fun was endless. Dirt. That simple.
