Robbie and the Mayor almost review "The Preacher's Wife", but then remember the remake rules and do "The Bishop's Wife" instead, encountering along the way magic wine bottles, Joe Pesci, the studio system, and Time Racists. Also, this is probably the most profane episode we've ever done where it's actually a good movie. So that's something.

That couple of misfits, the Mayor and David, look at "Rudolph the Red-Nosed Reindeer" and ask that most vital question: Why the hell can't the little dummy be a dentist?

To celebrate our new recording setup, the Mayor and Courtney do whatever the opposite of dodging a bullet is, as we forego watching a holiday classic created by many talented people in favor of watching another stupid Nutcracker movie.

SOUND NOTE: Once again, the audio started cutting out in this one, mostly at the end. But I now have a much better recording setup, so the problems caused by this rickety old laptop should be at an end.

Having found our copy of Nativity 2, but not wanting to watch it, Flonk and the Mayor once again do a live randomizing hail mary, and wind up with "Rare Exports"

The swear filter is off for this one, as Justin and the Mayor RAPIDLY descend into madness after watching "Jack and Jill", a Thanksgiving/Hanukkah/New Year's family flick featuring a number of cameos that have not aged great. TO SAY THE LEAST.

SOUND ERROR NOTE: About nine minutes in, there's some dead air, and then about 15 minutes of me narrating over myself. Apparently the tracks downloaded a little wonky in Audacity, and I don't have the original edit to fix, so... yeah. Sorry about that one. The Mayor and Anton take another trip to the seemingly always mediocre world of holiday slasher films with "New Year's Evil", which at least has a fun title.

The Mayor and Colleen go west this time for maybe the most tenuously Christmas-connected movie we've ever done, and that's saying a lot.

The randomizer gave the Mayor and Emily one of them 90s family dramas, and they don't feel like watching it, so it's time to exercise the Remake Prerogative and watch the remake of Silent Night, Deadly Night. Only this time, it's just called "Silent Night". To be cooooool.

David and the Mayor stare deeply into the eyes of "Free Birds", a Thanksgiving movie about... Oh, but that would be telling.

The Mayor and Robbie plot out/confess to several petty crimes as we discuss the mostly (intentionally?) unfunny Harold Ramis pulp/noir crime caper "The Ice Harvest". Spoiler: No one harvests any ice in this movie.
