We continue to hop around in the filmography of Rankin & Bass as we look at the last live-action film they produced with the 1983 made-for-TV movie The Sins of Dorian Gray, a gender-swapped version of Oscar Wilde's tale wherein Dorian (Belinda Bauer) is a model/actress whose screen test weathers the storm of her myriad sins while Anthony Perkins plays a Mephistophelian character.

On this episode Richard Hatem, Chris Stachiw, and Mike White discuss the Rankin & Bass film The Bermuda Depths. It's a live action (and stop motion) film about a man, a mysterious woman, and a giant turtle.

We're scraping the bottom of the Rankin & Bass Christmas barrel with a look at the 1974 animated special 'Twas the Night Before Christmas and 1985 animagic story The Life & Adventures of Santa Claus which re-tells the Santa story by way of L.

In 1977 Rankin & Bass did one of the first successful adaptation of JRR Tolkien's work with their adaptation of The Hobbit. In 1979 they tried again with The Return of the King.
