Christmas is almost here! And you know what that means\u2026TV Specials! And what better way to celebrate a pop culture tradition then by busting out a dusty old videotape and reliving the magic that is the 1987 ABC broadcast of A Muppet Family Christmas!
\n
\nI\u2019m your host, Dave, and joining me as we bask in the warmth of old school toy commercials and Jim Henson goodness are fellow cinephiles and Muppet-heads Ryan and Nick (aka, Immortan Hoof - Ruler of the Wasteland). Not included in this episode is Shift Lead Mike, who foolishly went shopping for last minute gifts in the middle of a blizzard.
\n
\nListen as we discuss the rampant commercialization of Christmas, which includes disturbing Sony ads, elephant shower accessories, and foreboding toy store slogans; things get creepy as a sleazy Turkey schmoozes his way onto Gonzo\u2019s girlfriend; and finally, A Muppet Family Christmas gives the Avengers a run for their money as we witness the epic team up of the Sesame Street gang and the Muppets (prepare for spelling and counting jokes\u2026).
