The Great Christmas Light Fight

Always enjoy watching these back at Christmastime. The seasons are shot a year in advance, and as the disclaimer said before each episode this season - airing 2020 was shot in 2019 - they were shot prior to Covid restrictions.

They shouldn't allow the usage of computers or any other kind of electronics for the display of lights,and just use lights like the way it used to be...It's gotten to the point that your not looking at what Christmas lights display is all about... The show use to be so much better when it first started,compared to the show's now...

The show is a great idea and the first few seasons were great. Now they seem to be going with the Extreme Home Makeover route. Every family has a heartfelt sick, dying or dead family member that they do the light displays for and now they are all way over the top computer generated displays. They need to stop with the feel sorry for me and computer/drone displays and just get back to basics. They need normal displays that normal everyday people do. The displays the last couple of seasons are getting ridiculous and to have displays made of drones is jumping the shark. Basically need an engineering degree or a Masters in computers to even compete. Really taking all the fun out of it.

This is actually now my seasonal favorite show! I have watched it most of the years it's been on. It's amazing how fancy people get decorating their homes. And all the DIY.

I couldn't do anything like that. In fact, at 62, I do decorate but do not put up lights outside. I love Christmas and enjoy decorating inside and out. (I usually decorate during the week after Halloween.)

But when the Christmas season is approaching, I start looking forward to the new season of The Great Christmas Light Fight. (My neighbor probably hates hearing me talk about it every year.) And my favorite judges are the current ones, Carter and Taniya. And I hope they continue to be the judges. They are too fun. I love them. The earlier ones were not as personable.

This is actually the ONLY tv series that I make sure I see EVERY episode of. (My other favorite series I regularly buy the DVD sets, so I don't always worry about seeing all the episodes.)

In this show they do not give it to the best house. For example, I just watched one where it was basically a carnival more than anything. They even described it as an "amusement park". But nothing, I mean? 0% of it was related to Christmas and yet that house won. It's not a good show. Along with the host (which kind of has to do this) is saying the same thing for every house like it's unique even when it's not. Do not waste your life. Life is short and please don't waste it on a tv show that doesn't even judge the winner by the criteria. SAVE YOURSELVES!
