Christmas in Acidland

Johnny Legend Presents the wildest Christmas show ever!

First, we get a fascinating look at Santa and his elves. Then the REAGANS (Ronald, Nancy & an infant Patty) wish us a Merry Christmas and manage to sneak in a plug for General Electric. Then a hilarious routine from ABBOTT & COSTELLO's 1952 Christmas special. ROSEMARY CLOONEY delivers a holiday tune. BOB CUMMINGS, DWAYNE HICKMAN & ROSEMARY DECAMP pose for crotchety-old GRANDPA, ERNIE KOVACS delivers a Holiday blast. In the bizarre "Santa Claus Story," Saint Nick weaves an eerie tale about "Monkey Mountain" and the "Monkey Christmas" demonstrated by real monkeys In "Santa in Animal Land," the most inept puppets this side of Ed Wood try to deliver an "Animal Xmas." JACK BENNY pays a Christmas visit to EDGAR BERGEN only to discover that CHARLIE MCCARTHY & MORTIMER SNERD are actually alive! LAWRENCE WELK introduces us to the unforgettable "Outer Space Santa." BOB HOPE takes jabs at everything from Elvis to the A-bomb on a late 50's USO special. From 1964, OZZIE & HARRIET reminisce about their "adventures" from 1956 RICKY NELSON sings and Ozzie straps on the guitar too! LIBERACE performs "White Christmas," followed by LOU COSTELLO performing a stunningly serious version. Bud and Lou then destroy the entire orchestra in a climax of Christmas carnage! HOWDY DOODY jumps aboard his rocket ship with BUFFALO BOB and CLARABELL and heads for the North Pole! Plus THE BEVERLY HILLBILLIES, THE CHIPMUNKS, more than 50 famous stars sing "Silent Night," LOUIS ARMSTRONG & DANNY KAYE steal the show with "Saints Come Marching In," a duet from DAVID BOWIE & BING CROSBY, unexpected holiday spurts from JOAN RIVERS and GEORGE CARLIN, and more than your mind can possibly imagine!
