Category six month rolls on with the flimsiest of excuses, as Flonk and I review Deadpool, a sassy comedy about a dude who's rude, crude, with attitude, and also with a weird amount of emotional honesty? Anyway, he says "Christmas" a bunch, so that's what's getting him in here today.

Brian's all right, Timmy's all right, they just seem a little weird after watching a nearly four hour movie. But do not take us for some conjurer of Cheap Trick, as Tim joins us for that finest of Category Six movies... Movies That Get Associated With Christmas Just Because of Their Release Date. It's LORD OF THE RINGS, BABY.

This week, it's a guest in theme month! Devlin joins us to discuss Ken Russell's The Who's Tommy, easily the weirdest movie we've ever done on this show.

A lengthy hiatus comes to a close, and with it comes Theme Month 2022, where we're looking at movies with the feeblest of Christmas connections! Sound is a little wonky on this one, but who could be upset when Lara and I are drooling over Christopher Plummer in "The Sound of Music", a really long, but really good, but really long movie!

Happy holiday season! As usual, it's time to announce our run of themed episodes, and Flonk is here to help with that, and also review Peacemaker a little, why not?

This week, on the Broken Arm Dispatch, I discuss a type of movie we won't be doing much of here, and do a commentary on "The Adventure of the Wrong Santa Claus", a short film from 1914 that dares to ask "What if Topper was a detective"?

But don't worry, my arms aren't broken again. Here's a status update leading into the holiday season, followed by a rambling walk through my top 25 movies of all time. (Three Christmas movies make the cut!)

STATUS UPDATE: Don't worry, the show's still on track! Screwy scheduling is STILL afflicting us, and our usual fall block was taken up this year by me being in a show, so the queue has run dry. But fear not, we have begun our next round, and the weekly uploads should resume shortly. ALSO: From the vaults! Colleen and I review and revisit the franchise about America's favorite horny twerp, Andy Hardy! ALSO: A local donut restaurant may be mocking me.

One from the Patreon this week, as I recover from being in Clue and prep the next round of recording! Enjoy me, Robbie, and Tim playing America's hottest game show, in which I challenge them to tell which Christmas Carol adaptations are real, and which I made up to trick them!

Emily and Brian take on The Weasel as we revisit "Son In Law", a Thanksgiving movie that is the first in the brief and inexplicable "Pauly Shore is a viable lead actor" era. Join us as we look at Tiffani Amber Thiessen: Farm Detective, analyze the practicality of roller blades as farm implements, get confused about the plot of a Tim Allen movie, and... grow... fatigued.
