Inspector Gadget Saves Christmas?

Uh, yeah, SOLD.

Despite the title of this YouTube video, Inspector Gadget Saves Christmas premiered in 1992. Unfortunately, I’m too drunk to look up anything else about it. Give me a break, it’s Christmas.

A Chipmunk Christmas!

I only have a minute tonight, but I’m leaving you in good hands:

A Chipmunk Christmas premiered in 1981 but was eventually lost in the shuffle, never quite becoming one of the specials that you could count on seeing every year for a whole lotta years. I’m still surprised about that. It’s legit good and it just looks like a classic, if that makes sense. I think you’ll enjoy it, whether you grew up rockin’ out to their squeaky voices or not!

Christmas Music Videos!

Weird thing: I love Christmas music to death, but I’ve hardly seen any of the associated music videos. (In fact, I’m often surprised to find out that some of the famous songs even HAD videos!)

It’s so weird to look them up now, because in some cases I didn’t even know what the singers or bands looked like, and spent 20 years formulating mental images that only rarely matched up with the truth.

Here are assorted music videos for pretty famous Christmas songs, because we’re like three seconds from Christmas and I’ve already used up my Garfield and Snoopy cards:

Okay, so that last one isn’t technically a “proper” music video, but I still love it.

In other news, I’m probably gonna keep Dino Drac After Dark going after the holidays. It’s been slow on the comment side lately, but I’ve still heard from enough readers to feel good about it. Will try to work in more surveys and stuff, too!

Finders Keepers!

Here’s a Christmassy episode of the Finders Keepers game show. (Jeez, I seriously have not seen even ten seconds’ worth of Finders Keepers since I was a kid!)

I’m excited to check this one out. I barely remember the show but definitely remember being a fan. For a while there, it seemed to be just as popular as Double Dare.

Enjoy!
