It's Christmas and that means it's time for our annual Drink 'Til It's Good holiday episode. We were thinking of doing a Christmas horror movie (like we usually do) but, as it was pointed out, we've done a LOT of horror episodes lately so, jokingly, we thought, why not tackle a cheesy holiday TV special.
