The Mayor and Flonk stave off the fearful specter of Mr. Poppy by virtue of the Mayor losing his external hard drive, so instead it's time to check out our dear Shane Black's first big hit, Lethal Weapon, starring Danny Glover, who is not that old, and Mel Gibson, whose hilariously terrible accent helps distract us from the fact that he's an un-hilariously terrible person.

The Mayor and Courtney review the made-for-TV Nativity opera "Amahl and the Night Visitors". Along the way, we discuss the comparative simplicity of opera lyrics, invent a fairy tale origin story for the show, and get unnecessarily horny for a biblical episode.

"Eight years isn't too long to wait for a sequel, right? Nah. Let's throw four scripts into a blender and make The Santa Clause 2!"

The Mayor and Anton look at the absurd mid-90s family flick "Jingle All The Way", a movie that looks in a lot of different directions, and goes in ALL of them.

Emily comes back to review yet another romcom, this time the charming "While You Were Sleeping", which the Mayor had never seen and did NOT know what to expect from.

The Mayor and Tim Montoya look at the Salkinds' fantasy epic "Santa Claus: The Movie", a loose remake of Superman starring Dudley Moore, The Big Lebowski, and John Lithgow. And Puffy. SCREW OFF, PUFFY.

Due to the late edit, I didn't jingle the cuss words. Sorry about that.

The Mayor of Christmas is joined once again by El Mero Mero de Navidad, Alonso Duralde, to discuss "Who Slew Auntie Roo", an EXCEEEEEDINGLY British horror film, which throws "Whatever Happened to Baby Jane", "Oliver!", "Tales from the Crypt", and "Blithe Spirit" into a blender and just sees what comes out the other side.

The Mayor and Lara take a look at The Nutcracker and the Four Realms, a movie which kind of has a nutcracker in it sometimes. Did you know Keira Knightley could ham it up? SHE CAN! Did you know Richard E. Grant could play people in genre movies that aren't evil? HE CAN! Did you know Matthew McFayden could look handsomely sad? YOU DID IF YOU KNEW ANYTHING ABOUT HIM!

Good news, now no matter what you do in your life, you'll be able to say "Well, at least I'm not squandering my potential as much as the cast of Mixed Nuts was." The Mayor and AAlgar are here to warn you about it.

Fixed audio! In a castle of pain, on a throne of blood, the mayor and Maggie, whose name is once again mistakenly said with two bad consanants and a missing syllable, discuss Ghostbusters 2, the third-best Ghostbusters movie. Yes, you're right, that DOES sound like a polite way of saying the worst Ghostbusters movie!
