Sucks |
| Description: |
Looks at America's commercialization of the Christmas holiday season and the travel, inordinate amount of preparation, and family strife that accompanies it. |
| Synopsis: |
These days, Christmas lights adorn front porches before the Thanksgiving turkey is even in the oven. Plane tickets to visit hardly-missed relatives cost more than the suitcase full of presents people have to lug across the country. And radios everywhere play songs about that fat guy in a red suit on an endless loop. Yes, it's official: Christmas Sucks. This title is a humorous look at America's commercialization of the Christmas holiday season and the terrible travel, inordinate amount of preparation, and family strife that accompanies it. You can commiserate with the fact that everyone drives themselves into debt buying gifts, no one enjoys seeing long-lost relatives, and everyone is creeped out by the department store Santa. With twelve days of Christmas, there's plenty of reasons why this is far from the most wonderful time of the year. |
