This week, Eli tortures us with a poorly filmed stage musical.

Comments

J. Vizzle

Happy Holidays, heathens! ❤️

Denise Huston

Love that Eli's example of obscure carol is Good King Wenceslas.

WelcomeToFalse

What are the pot and kettle doing? Engaging in projection and denial?

Sarah Deen

I appreciate every Discworld reference, even the ones that are shoehorned.

Veronica Barrera

Luigi: The Musical would be amazing! New Patreon goal!

Gmork

MEEEEEEEEP!!!

Laura Lusby

I’m one of those crazy people that took everything and made it more Jesus. I wrote a song called “The Giver of Life” that was a send-up of “Circle of Life.” But. Even I never saw a reason to “Jesus up” A CHRISTMAS FUCKING CAROL. OMG.

Sammypt

I remember giving a standing ovation at the end of the Nashville show too! #TeamHeath #HeathIsTheBEST

Aaron Irvin

Marley and Marley! Whooooooooooooah! We're Marley and Marley! Whooooooooooooah!

The Best Worst play I have ever seen (big statement given that theatre is my job) was a community production of a Christmas Carol musical. If I hadn't known the production staff I would have been sure it was a parody.

Bird Lawyer, Esquire

I will happily do a paid Xmas post as long as you guys catch up on bonuses...

Nate

I want a GIF of “death” walking off after his bow with his hood off and his wavy hair showing.

Julie Wine&Reason

I love "A Muppet Christmas Carol." Strong disagree, Heath. Great episode to all of you! Have a great week off!

Gmork

He's even worse to mouses!

Gmork

Next up: Jesusing up The Passion on the Christ!

Lora Forsyth

I am going to ask GAM to stop hacking my calls to my mother, thanks. Also not liking the Muppet Chirstmas Chaol is proof that Heath was born a middle age cranky man.

Aaron Irvin

If Heath became a flavor you can bet he would be sour

Aaron Irvin

Passion on the Christ: The christianized version of Putting on the Ritz

Lora Forsyth

Kicking myself for not using that.

Turanga Leela

A Muppet Christmas Carol is the ONLY version to watch. Maybe on the week off we’ll get November’s bonus.

marissa haire

"Mickey's Christmas Carol" is superior to the "Muppets Christmas Carol "

Caldwell

but it DOESNT even scan! I'm here, catching your poetry jokes, I see them lol 👀

Mark Smith

If you can find it. The Blackadder Christmas special is a good watch.

Jme Simard

I’d support paid days off - can there be a Patreon option to pay monthly instead of by episode?

Adam Martin

I think Heaths two punch line of “peanut butter?…chunky!?” Is one of the funniest things in the history of the show.

Matthew Finbow

Anyone know which version of this they watched on YouTube? It seems a whole bunch of different churches have recorded and uploaded versions of this terrible musical over the years.

Zach Van Stanley

Wait, is this the second more-Christian retelling of A Christmas Carol they did?

William Evan Barnes

Give yourselves a paid holiday! I get how the small business owner thing works, you're never really off. But for real, I'm glad you take vacations, now make them paid! I'd happily pay an extra episode. You all work hard and do a lot of great work that I really appreciate.

Chani Orr

Discworld ❤️ Aw. Rip, Pratchett

Echo Cian

True friendship is Heath hearing Eli begin to get criticism for disliking a song in A Muppet Christmas Carol and picking up that sword he was about to fall on to go jump on a grenade with it.

Jessbfd

I'm sorry? The music? The impressively historically accurate costuming? The snappy, felted quips? The set design? Michael G.D. Caine? None of that got to you? Heath I am so disappointed.

JDK

+1 to the paid vacation. Merry Christmas! 🎁

Chandra

I'd be 100% okay with paying next year as a thank you for another great year

Oke518

Just charge us you give us so much already and since it sounds like you guys are going to have to be swapping over to charging us a set rate monthly rather than per episode you might as well get started now put up a pole I for one will vote to pay you for your holiday as you said no jobs paid you for that off and I never gotten it paid off either which isn't right

Noswaith Da Dw in Ffuder Fflam. Sut dych hi

I think we all know what the next bonus episode has to be now. I want to hear Eli gushing about how amazing an amazing movie is, Noah realize that no, it's not nostalgia, and Heath be wrong.

CajunRoyalty

I have never seen A Muppet Christmas Carol.

cadavermouse

I truly want that on a bumper sticker

Wendy

A Muppet Christmas Carol is the best film adaptation of A Christmas Carol and I will die on this hill.

Uriah Jackson

Regarding the"angel" of Christmas present, more like Poison Ide(ology).

Charles Loelius

Do Muppet Christmas Carol as secular(ish) bonus plz

Hillary Johansen

Has anyone heard of this "movie?" It's called Canaan Land and it appears to be about a grifter preacher who falls for a "real" christian and it stars a bunch of pillow faced ladies - one of which - was in the crazy movie Robowoman that they reviewed on RLM? Looks prime for Gam-ing.

Hillary Johansen

I just bought the newly issued vinyl with the restored "When Love is Gone" version and it is truly, a merry fucking christmas now.

Woodsy Boredom

Heath is right. Muppet Christmas Carol = not good. It's a tonal mess. Too many rats. No terror. No fear. Mediocre music. People who say it is good or a good adaptation have not read the story or don't remember it. Micheal Caine's earnest committed performance is lost amidst snarky, sarcastic Muppets constantly undercutting any gravity or humanity in the tale. It's an agonizing experience to watch.

Woodsy Boredom

It simply is not... Read the srory...

Mees Hilgersom

The tiny letters joke was great, but I don't think many people besides Pratchett fans will get it.

Sparrow

Yeah dude, we get it, you're very different and special for not liking a widely popular thing

Sparrow

I think they picked up the housekeeper from the 1951 film version? Also, personal pet peeve, but it irks me when adaptations try to be clever by giving Scrooge Charles Dickens' backstory. It changes the character in ways that work against the message of the story. They did that in the Kelsey Grammer musical adaptation as well.

Nathan Burnett

I’m upping my patron level. One request: put out a “best of” episode when you take a week off. Or (like The Daily Beans) an episode you played this week X years ago (The further back the better)

B. King

More! Heath just Blasphemed the one true religion of Muppetism.

Markus D

Thank you! I think most people just grew up with that being the first, and maybe only, Christmas Carol they saw as a kid, but it's really not the best adaptation as it loses a lot of the heart of the original.

Markus D

It might be your favourite, but it's not a very good adaptation when it comes to being faithful.

Markus D

The costuming is good. Not sure about the rest.

Markus D

Do you know about Sondheim's "Assassins"? It's got some apt songs.

Markus D

I am begging people to recognize that sometimes people just don't like something that is popular, and it's not just done because they want to be special.

Matthew Finbow

I don't think I'm overstating things when I say you are history's greatest MONSTER!

Matthew Finbow

See, that would be a lot more believable if you two didn't go out of your way to comment on so many posts telling people they are wrong for liking Muppet Christmas Carol. Stating you disagree once is a difference of opinion. Stating it over and over again is just attention-seeking contrarianism.

Lucas P

Just wanted to say that putting death speak in lower case as an anti reference to Discworld, great stuff.

Elizabeth

I’m pretty sure the housekeeper was in the original.
