John R. Cherry III's 1988 Christmas comedy, ERNEST SAVES CHRISTMAS, is our feature presentation this week. We talk about the brilliance of Jim Varney, the defunct Ernest scripts that were never made, Disney's war with the Teamsters Union during the production, characters "Chuck & Bobby", and much more! We also pick our TOP 7 RECURRING COMEDY CHARACTERS in this week's SILVER SCREEN 7. Become a regular here at THE BROKEN VCR!
