2 out of 3 Oracles are currently on vacation, so in the spirit of getting away from it all we figured we’d revisit one of our favorite eps, Great Lakes Tourist Traps
History is full of great figures who’ve made an impact on the lives of people, and public parks are full of statues made to honor them.
While some of these heroic figures have earned their monuments through acts of great bravery, others simply pretended to jump over a shark on TV. Today, we’ll be discussing the latter.
Once in a lifetime something truly original is made by combining existing clips from a Japanese TV show with new footage of attractive people doing high kicks. When that happens, the only thing to do is copy it as many times as possible in as many ways as possible in ways that just might make a child pay attention.
Sit back and join the Oracles as they dig into some of the more interesting attempts to cash in on the earning power of the Power Rangers.
Categorical Oracle is entering its dirty thirties and to celebrate the Oracles are flipping the formula and taking a look back at what could’ve been by giving under-appreciated categories a second change.
You know Frosty, and Rudolph, and A Claymation Christmas. The Miser Bros, Charlie Brown, and of the Grinch’s plan that was vicious. But do you recall, some of the least famous Christmas specials of all?
No? Well don’t cry or pout, the Oracles are here to share their takes on some of the best, and worst Holiday Specials that time nearly forgot.
Did you go a little hard on the turkey and potatoes this Thanksgiving? Looking to shed some of that holiday weight and willing to take all of the joy out of your life? Well then why don’t sit back and join the Oracles as they take a crack at organizing some unique celebrity diets.
