The Sound of a Barrel's Bottom, Being Scraped

I love few things in life more than Rankin & Bass holiday specials. That probably means I'm not entirely objective, but I can't help but think that this is one of the worst ideas in the history of bad ideas, ranking with remaking The Wiz with an all white cast. Because you know what Rankin & Bass holiday specials have always been missing? Well, obviously, King Ralph, Undercover Brother, and Corky Romano. At least the've got the Golgothan in the mix, right?

They're going to ruin the Heat Miser/Snow Miser song, aren't they. Bastards.

Actually, I'd be surprised if they did the musical numbers at all...

Dear NBC, Dear Mr. Wolper:

I'm a librarian and a researcher by trade. I can find out most things.

I will find out how to make mustard gas, and I will find out your home address, if this is broadcast.

Sincerely,
Jess Nevins.

Jess, I'm not sure. Do you think the remake is a good idea or not?

I'm reminded of a line from, of all things, White Men Can't Jump:

"I'm gonna go get my gun, and then I'm gonna come back here and shoot EVERYBODY."
