Would you be my? Could you be my? Won't you "Love...Thy Neighbor"? In a special holiday episode of Cheers Weekly, we receive two special gifts at the bar. First, a Saved By The Bell alum stops by the bar to help solve a burning mystery involving adulterers, jackals and fornicators. Are you Team Vera or Team Norm?

Have we entered the twilight zone? Carla is taking out personal ads to find a man?!?!? Episode titles that mimic future MC Hammer songs?!?!?! Mimes!!!!! It's zany...it's crazy...but is it up to normal Cheers standards? Or are we heading down the dreaded Elvis episodes road.

The holiday season is in full swing here at Cheers Weekly and presents abound! The large gift under the tree with a nice bow on it is George's report from the Whistler Film Festival including a fantastic interview with Mr. Movie Guy in Victoria, Jason Whyte.

But the gleaming house on the block with all the cool lights is our episode this week that involves Hemingway, lobster salad, the Guinness Book of World Records and Sam Malone naked as a jaybird.

It's a Halloween episode for Cheers this week as the scares and laughs are as plentiful as a fall harvest or the number words Cliff can make up in order to win a game of Boggle. Diane faces down a major fear in the person of convicted felon Andy Andy, as well as her major weakness, Sam in a velvet smoking jacket. And just as a haunted house has many highs and lows, George focuses in on the roller coaster ride that is indie filmmaking. Grab some hot cider, wear your favorite costume and enjoy "Diane's Nightmare". (Review starts - 12:12)

In what may be the first instance of paid product placement in an episode title, Cheers Weekly presents the fourth episode of Season 4, "The Groom Wore Clearasil". Carla's son isn't seeing things straight, Diane isn't interviewing great and Cliff just isn't all there. And if any of our loyal listeners happen to be a huge fan of House of Cards, you have been warned, as Randy rants on the series' final season while also describing how to make good money during election season. George rights the ship a bit with his take on the show, Collateral, while chastising Randy for his failure to sample The Romanoffs. And then to top it all off, we have an utterly shocking surprise for our ratings challenge this week. You have been warned! (Review starts - 15:40)

What is George's view on the role of death in Ozark, Season 2? What is Randy's opinion on the first episodes of the final season of House of Cards? What exactly took Diane's breath away while watching Baryshnikov? And what exactly is Sam jealous of regarding Diane? Plus, for those of the more philosophical bent, what is this third episode of Season 4 trying to tell us regarding the role of physical appearance in our judgements and assumptions? "Someday My Prince Will Come" serves up the questions - come on in the bar for some answers! (Review starts - 13:20)
