Dolly Parton's Mountain Magic Christmas (2022)
What the heck did I just watch?

When a Christmas special, especially one by a country music star, includes a song titled "Go To Hell," something is off-kilter. Okay, Dolly is addressing Satan in the song, but the effect is jarring, especially for folks who have their young kids gathered around the TV.
The producing-a-special-within-a special plot doesn't work, and some of Dolly's duets are just awkward. The audience-free Christmas special she did during the pandemic in 2020 was a much better showcase of Ms. Parton's singing and songwriting talent. Better yet, if you can find her 1990 "Home for Christmas" special, you will see Dolly in her prime, singing classic songs as only she can.
