Overly Sentimental Tripe
20 December 2022
Well... I have made it to episode 5 and ONLY fell asleep three times..

First off I absolutely loved the first season of Home for Christmas starring our amazing Ida Elise Broch, this girl can act but she was reduced to nothing more than a boring side character in this absolute snooze fest!

It felt extremely Cliche and looks like it was written for the American market due to its never ending soppiness and wanna be love actually kinda vibes, I was just not biting despite a cast of fairly decent actors in it.

It also looked a lot in parts that the snow effect was actually washing up bubbles, I don't get why this was needed as I thought this was ridiculously unnecessary given that this is supposed to be filmed in Oslo (at Christmas) (in a snow storm)

I think it fails to capture any sort of feeling or rapport with any of the characters as they are only transiting through an airport terminal and it doesn't have the lasting longevity or Charachter development of Home For Christmas.

This series doesn't really go anywhere and I think I could have done with as season 3 of Home for Christmas instead of this sickly sweet Americanised Garbage.
