This is actually a great analysis of Hallmark Channel's Christmas movies, and why their plots frequently center on 30-something year old women who abandon their successful big city lives to move back to their home towns and marry the handsome "boy next door." It seems to be a very popular fantasy among the network's primary audience, conservative women aged 50+ (70% of the channel's viewers.)
