The Twelve Reviews of Christmas...Day Two: "Extreme Christmas Trees"
It's Christmas...
To the Extreme!
The Story:
In 2011, The Learning Channel created a special showcasing some of the biggest, most elaborate Christmas trees around the globe.
They showcase the largest indoor tree in a private residence at the Biltmore Estate in North Carolina.
There's the 35 foot tall lobster trap tree in Maine.
An upside down 3 story tree inside of a 2 story house in England.
A 10 foot charity cake tree.
And many, many more!
No history of trees or anything noteworthy about Christmas.
It's simply straight up, one extreme tree after another.
It's available to stream instantly on Netflix if you are so inclined. Apparently it should also be airing on TLC on the 21st of December if you'd like to go that route.
Some segments, and trees, are better than others. That said, there is not a lot of time spent on any particular segment, so they'll all zip by fast enough to not bore you.
Hopefully.
:)
Final Grade: B-
Rewatchability/Purchase Factor: No reason to purchase it. I might stream it again in a few years on Netflix, or watch it again on TLC. I don't think it will go into annual rotation though.
