Strong Christmas Themes
I have seen 3 shows on TV in the last 24 hours that are 'Christmas episodes'. One of them was 'The Office', so somehow that was ok, but still...accumulatively speaking...
I have decided that it woud be a good idea to have a warning on these episodes. Along with, violence, moderate coarse language, sexual references, there should be this announcement:
'The following programme contains Strong Christmas Themes. We recommend viewing by audiences with a strong stomach, due to the sanguine nature of the themes.'
Maybe, there should also be warnings against Strong Sentimentality...

I LOVE the office christmas special ( well, the final one) makes me soooo gooshy! Didn;t see too muh christmacy stuff, but after the cynicism of "the office" the sentimentality and feel-good vibes were welcome...
If the program is on at a "non-christmas time" (i.e. May), I think the rating should go up to MA. Whatever the program is. If it contains "Christmas themes", people need to be warned.
The Office Christmas Specials are fantastic. And the US Office (which fast becomes a fantastic show in its own right once it gets past the first season) had a tops Christmas episode in season 3. Oh, and the short-lived (and not even aired yet in Aus I think) Studio 60 had a brilliant Christmas episode too.
Struggling to think of any other decent Christmas TV episodes...
