Maybe 2020 is not all bad. That is because Netflix is giving us The Christmas Chronicles 2 on November 25th.
At the end of The Christmas Chronicles we were introduced to Goldie Hawn playing Mrs. Claus to Kurt Russell’s Santa Claus. Today, we got to see the teaser for the sequel that is about their marriage. I don’t know what the film is about, and I don’t care. Just seeing these two as the mother and father of Christmas gave me some holiday joy in September. They are one of Hollywood’s cutest couples, and seeing them together makes me happy. That is something we all need in 2020.

Goldie Hawn and Oliver Hudson were on Watch What Happens Live with Andy Cohen the other night, and the son asked his mom who was her worst onscreen kiss. Before the actress could even answer, Hudson blurted out that it was Woody Allen.
After the actor said that, Hawn said she couldn’t even remember kissing him. That is when her son reminded her, “Remember? He’s like, he closes his mouth. And he’s like, I don’t like to do open-mouth kissing.” Even after reminding his mom about it, she is asked him, “Are you making that up?” That is how bad their kiss; she blocked it out from her memory. I guess you can say the play, Everybody Says I Love You, didn’t live up to its title for her.

Before Goldie Hawn won an Oscar, she was on the variety show Laugh-In. The late ’60s and early ’70s weekly comedy show had people laughing until hurt, and she was one of their brightest stars.
Therefore, you would think that Netflix would have included her in their special Still LAUGH-IN: The Stars Celebrate. However, for some reason, she is not there. While Dick Martin and Dan Rowan have a good excuse for not being part of it (they are no longer with us), there is no excuse for her not being part of it. While she is not in to laugh, Lily Tomlin, Ruth Buzzi and JoAnne Worley will be. They will be joined by a bunch of people who were born or not even born when it originally aired. People like Neil Patrick Harris, Tiffany Haddish, Chelsea Handler, Taye Diggs, Maria Bamford, Margaret Cho, Ron Funches, Nikki Glaser, Lisa Ann Walter, Mary McCormack, Bobby Moynihan, Cheri Oteri, Rob Riggle, Jeff Ross, Tony Hale and Natasha Leggero. I wish the networks would bring back variety shows like this and the other ones from the ’60s and ’70s. I used to love watching them in syndication when I was growing up. They taught me how to laugh and we need more laughter in the world.

Goldie Hawn and Kurt Russell have been together for 35 years and counting, and they are still the cutest couple in town. Someone bought them a stereo mic and they used it to sing The Beatles’ I Want to Hold Your Hand. While their singing is far from perfect, their love is pitch perfect.
Who does not want to be with someone that you can sing Karaoke with on the couch and laugh at off key you are? Especially to still find that joy after three decades together. That is why they are my relationship goal!
