Are traditional rom-coms dead or at least in a lull? I have a story that can work as either a traditional rom-com or could be adapted to a Hallmark Channel style Christmas movie and I am waffling on which direction to go. I don’t see any of the upcoming pitch sessions with traditional rom coms. I do see a few holiday pitch sessions. is there a buying season for holiday scripts?
thanks

I think there have been a few good ones lately…. ‘Something from Tiffany’s’ and ‘Your Place or Mine’ are a good blend of what you want without being cheesy and staying relevant and down to earth…

There's a lot of Christmas content coming out these days for sure! They can be simpler and easier to make thanks to lower audience expectations for easy holiday fun, rather than the high stakes of putting your heart out on the line!
