Welcome!

Welcome to My Two Biddies. This is our little slice of the internet where we give our two bits about cheesy rom-coms (hello, Hallmark Channel at Christmas!) and period piece movies and TV series'. What started out as marathon-length text conversations between two friends discussing the worst-rated, highly-predictable, overly-cheesy holiday movies that we just couldn't stop watching has now become this blog.

Sarah and Katy (the Two Biddies) met at a holiday party where neither one knew anyone else. We looked at each other, shrugged and said want to be friends so we don't have to talk to any of these people? It was instant friendship and some 10 years later we are still friends who save each other from awkward situations.

The Holiday Calendar

A couple weeks ago I saw that Netflix was beginning to advertise their holiday movies and my tummy gave a little tickle! I love this time of year and you all know how much I LOVE the cheesy holiday rom-coms! I text the co-creator of this blog and we decided it was time to resurrect My Two Biddies. I have already had people asking for my recommendations this year so here we go- the first official holiday review of the 2018 season! Source Holiday Calendar begins with our main character, Abby working in a cheap photo studio. It doesn't seem like the worst job ever but her parents are constantly pressuring her to join their law firm where she will inevitably suffocate from lack of creative outlet. As a surprise, Abby's best friend Josh turns up in the photo studio fresh off 18 months of travelling around the world writing a travel blog. They are 'strictly friends' but we all know things aren't going to stay that way. At her family's Christmas decor...

The Spirit of Christmas

It's the week of Thanksgiving and Christmas decor and music are already everywhere you turn. Most years I am pretty stubborn about not letting Christmas sneak in before Thanksgiving is properly celebrated but this year I am making some exceptions. The first of which is starting on my terribly cheesy Christmas rom-coms a little early. The first on the list this year is The Spirit of Christmas . It's probably one of the more interesting and dynamic Christmas romance tales I've seen in the last few years. The show begins with Kate, a slightly exaggerated Boston lawyer who has no relationship with her family and is the worst girlfriend of all time. She's married to her job and as you can probably guess, something in the movie is going to totally transform her. Because if there's one thing we know about this type of movie it's that there will be a happy ending and the main character will be a different person by the time it's finished. Funny how love su...

A Cinderella Christmas

This week I made one of the best decisions I've made in a long time. I subscribed to Hallmark Movies Now. My husband may not agree that it's such a great thing, but holy moly, I had a great weekend. The first movie I watched was A Cinderella Christmas. I know this isn't a popular opinion, but I hate the Disney cartoon Cinderella , so I'm always on the search for a good Cinderella story. Basically every version I've seen out-ranks the Disney cartoon. Even the ABC version, A Cinderella Story: Once Upon a Song.  So fair warning, my bar for good Cinderella movies is set pretty low. This incarnation seems to be set in California, although it's never explicitly clarified. Our Cinderella is named Angie. It's made pretty obvious at the beginning that Angie is an orphan (no idea what happened to her parents) and was raised by her Uncle Otto along side her evil, conniving cousin, Candice. Candice is the stereotypical antagonist. Vain, aloof, lazy, entitled, wh...
