Well…or at least reminisce about watching it. From December 1986, it’s “Your Christmas Show of Shows!”It’s Christmas, and Philadelphia’s First Community Church is preparing a Nativity play. They’ve sent out invitations to local celebrities and politicians and one has finally responded positively! Unfortunately, they only have two days to get it ready. Oh, and Deacon Frye has insulted and run off the director!The staff works hard to finish the preparations for the show, but a freak snow storm prevents the film crew from attending. Of course, the staff is heartbroken. The children, however, are unfazed, and perform the pageant with zeal and joy.

What’s up, dudes? The Baby-Sitters' holiday party promises to be the best ever! But why isn't Stacey sharing in all of the fun? Danielle Clarke of No More Late Fees and I find out why this is truly a special Christmas for the Baby-sitters Club! Yes, it's the 1990-91 "Baby-Sitters Special Christmas!"The Baby-Sitters have a lot to do. There's shopping for secret Santas, planning the hospital Christmas party, and attending to their regular sitting duties. Unfortunately, Stacey has to manage her diabetes as well. Quite frankly, it's a monumental talk during the sweet-filled holiday season, and she doesn't do a great job. Meanwhile, Kristy works around the house to earn a commercial grade baseball glove. Claudia and the other girls begin to decorate for the annual Christmas party. Cue the usual 'kid who hates Christmas' bit. In this case, it's a boy with a broken leg whose parents are constantly working. Rather dramatically, Stacey lets her blood sugar spike, Dawn reprimands her, and Kristy gives her brand new mitt to the boy. At least they all sing "We Wish You a Merry Christmas."Rambunctious children? Yep, little Pete from Pete & Pete. Near death experience. Uh huh, poor Stacey.

What's up, dudes? Stephen King has had a huge influence in the horror genre, and that includes werewolves. Jeremy Phelps the Alamo City Santa is with me to talk all about the 1985 movie "Silver Bullet!" In a small town, it's hard to hide as a bat-wielding bear-like werewolf (bear-wolf?), unless you're a reverend, of course.Siblings Marty and Jane have a contentious relationship. Things get crazy when people start dying around the full moon. At first, the deaths are chalked up to accidents, but when a young boy is torn to shreds, a posse forms. Naturally, more deaths follow.Marty attracts the werewolf's attention shooting off fireworks, but manages to injure its eye. Consequently, he enlists Jane's help in tracking down the culprit, searching for one-eyed persons. They discover Rev. Lowe with a new eyepatch, and confront him. He attacks, but is killed when their uncle shoots him with the specially crafted bullet. All's well that ends well.Small town? Check. Rubber snakes? Yep. Rocket powered motorbike wheelchair? Only if Gary Busey made it! So grab your fireworks, hop in your own Silver Bullet, and ride the rickety bridge to this episode!Alamo City SantaIG: @alamocitysanta Give us a buzz!
