Xmas Celebration - Day 10

And now a holiday treat for all.

It's goofy but it still makes me laugh.

Xmas Celebration - Day 9

There's just something about an honest to goodness Englishman in 18th century period clothes with gloves with the fingers cut out that just says Christmas. It so Dickensian.

Plus I like Elvis Costello, so matching him up with Mr. Colbert is quite the winning combo.

Xmas Celebration - Day 8

Just one thing to say about this next clip.

Best SNL skit ever.

Xmas Celebration - Day 7

I love a song that embodies the true meaning of the Christmas Spirit.

That's why The Kinks rendition of "Father Christmas" is always one of my favorites. A gang of toughs beat up Santa and demand money instead of toys. How touching.

Xmas Celebration - Day 6

I never have been able to understand the appeal of Mr. Magoo. An old man who bumbles about due to basically being blind. His impairment causes him to get into all sorts of mishaps. And kids want to watch this?

Even more puzzling is the choice of Magoo to join in on the thousands of Christmas Carol remakes. Judge for yourself.

Xmas Celebration - Day 5

Everyone has heard the John Lennon version of this song but I like this U2 cover better. Plus no Yoko to distract you.

Xmas Celebration - Day 4

Charles Dickens' holiday favorite about a miser who is visited by the spirits of Christmas has been the subject of countless movies and television shows.

Here is one of those versions.

Married with Children was one of my favorites growing up so here it is in the mini-sode format. Sam Kinison as the screaming angel seems appropriate.
