Dutch Company To Bring Guests To Your Christmas Dinner With DVD

London, England (AHN) - For those that worry they might eat their Christmas dinner alone this year, they now have reason to fear no more. Courtesy of a Dutch art company, a new DVD will allow a lonesome dinner to become one full of holiday fun and good cheer with dinner companions eating, drinking, and engaging in conversation.

The DVD will feature actors reading out different scripts in other for people to pick out which type of people they would want best.

According to Ananova, the producers, the Tilburgs CowBoys and Theater NWE Vorst, said they hoped it would ease the loneliness of single people without families at Christmas.

Producer Chris Gribling says: "The client can watch the DVD while sitting and eating in front of the television."

"The actors can offer him or her a romantic evening or even a good discussion. We have a good variety in the choice of our table companions."

I think that if I was living the lonely single guy life, I'd be more than happy to watch a DVD featuring friendly people haveing fun with each other for the holidays. Say one with a nice couple or perhaps one with some women friends sharing a special holiday together....

This sounds like the most depressing thing ever! I'm accustomed to being alone, but holy crap, if I ever need a DVD to provide me with imaginary company for the holidaze, it's time to finish writing the note.

Yes, but does it come with ... BIG JIM SLADE!!!!!!!!!!! ;) If it did, I might consider buying it. :evil:

Which begs the question, does this DVD come with a Feel-A-Round option?

Okay, I need to stop now or I may never stop.You've got quite the collection, huh? :p

I wonder if the lonely diners actually talk back to the DVD. That would be so sad.

When I read this, I just imagined the viewer asking the DVD "Would you like some more potatoes?" and spooning a bunch of mashed potatoes on to the screen.
