Earth-2.net Presents...

It's that time once again. Hannah Krueger joins the guys for their annual Twilight suffer-fest, this time in the form of Eclipse. Please visit http://tranquiltirades.wikia.com.

As it turns out, all The Wish that Changed Christmas changed is Will's tolerance for bad Christmas Specials. Then, in The Whistler's "Letter from Cynthia," a doctor must choose between revenge and his oath to preserve life.

Hey, an Actor!'s Year of Grey concludes with their longest episode to date, dedicated to the late, great Sir Christopher Lee. Such is his filmography that The Brothers Wilson open the show with a look at the seminal British folk horror epic The Wicker Man before looking at his very first portrayal of literature's greatest vampire in the Hammer horror classic Dracula. And what will Pandy think of closing the year with Jinnah, a biopic in which Lee portrays the founder of Pakistan? The hosts also touch upon their subject's remarkable lifetime, whilst bad impressions are abound, ranging from such celebrities as Michael Yorke and Ian Wilson. In addition to a Pandy Parody, The Brothers Wilson also play detective to uncover which famous world leader has received a c-bomb from train driver Dave Probert!

Before Wendee, Dan, and Mike discuss the finer points of Caravan of Courage: An Ewok Adventure, Will discovers you don't have to wear pants to enjoy Ziggy's Gift.

Will takes a look at a Norse Holiday tradition with Disney's From All of Us, To All of You. Then it's time to cover your mouths and wash your hands, because Pandy and Christian discuss maladies and their cures in fiction. What cure's side effects include drowsiness, sexual nightmares, and sleep crime? Who is unfortunate enough to suffer from Cobbles? And which medication did the late, great Robin Williams invent?

This week we are talking all about bad choices. First up, we interview Scott B. Hansen about his film The Possession Experiment, in which a college student invites a demonic possession into his body for a school project. Bad idea. Then, a young woman decides to join a mysterious billionaire's private game in Rich the Monster Movie Kid's review of Would You Rather? Bad idea. Finally, two old friends reconnect and go to another weird rich guy's house and perform crazy antics for desperately needed cash in Desmond and Darryll's review of Cheap Thrills. Probably a bad idea. But a good idea is music: "Open Your Eyes" by Maylene and the Sons of Disaster, "All Rise" by Wovenwar, "Sell Your Soul" by Hollywood Undead, "Bloodstains" by Agent Orange, and "Betty Ford for Christmas" by Leif Garrett & The Crush Ups.

After Will briefly contemplates mortality, it's time for Casper's First Christmas. Then Mike reads through the December Previews.

Will looks at the very depressing A Very Brady Christmas, before Mike airs the Read-Along Adventures adaptations of Star Trek: The Motion Picture and Star Trek II: The Wrath of Khan.

Will opens the show with Snowden's Christmas, then Hannah and Jim talk about their recent playthroughs of Mass Effect 2 and 3! Highlights include: that ending, rampant speculation about Andromeda, and massive spoilers.

The 2016 Earth-2.net: The Show Advent Calendar begins here! Dan and Mike dive into Dr. Strange. Not the surreal blockbuster from 2016, but the oddly faithful made-for-TV movie from 1978. Before that, though, in the first of 25 segments, Will takes a look at Christmas Specials that Time Forgot, starting with Christmas in Tattertown.
