Ya'll. It's bad. And yet, my roommate and I watch it every. Single. Year. We love it.
The strange floating people in the beginning at what seemed like a Top Chef competition but definitely wasn't? Perfection.
Unappetizing food plated poorly by the winner of the competition? Yes.
Deceased moms, non-existent steaks, non existent STAKES, and what seems like a deliberate PR campaign to make sure we the audience are excited by the idea of dating a city planner? I'll take it.
Also, bonus for a very ethnically ambiguous family lead by Vivica A. Fox. I don't know who is related to who, no adoption, foster or "chosen family" storyline to follow. It's perfect.
You ask, every year we watch this? The answer is YES.
There is truly nothing better than the cinematic universe of Christmas MOW's made in Canada, and this one definitely takes the cake.
