The Holiday Music Fest
For today's Holiday Music Fest, we have something a bit different, in that it isn't a song and has no song in it. But it fits the spirit and also the continuation of Hanukkah. It's a wonderful filmed-sketch that Stephen Colbert did on his show this past Monday, dealing with how many new Christmas movies there are on TV (notably on Lifetime and the Hallmark Channel), but almost nothing for Hanukkah. I'll let him explain and then go further to help rectify the oversight --
And then, as a sort of companion bonus, this is a trailer for a new movie made for Comedy Central that premieres on Saturday, December 4. It's written by -- and co-stars -- former Saturday Night Live cast members Ana Gasteyer and Rachel Dratch as the Clüsterfünke sisters, and is a parody of ALL those made-for-TV holiday movies notably on Lifetime and the Hallmark Channel. (In fact, when Rachel Dratch was a guest on Seth Meyer's talk show this week, she said that -- although this is not a Hallmark movie, which she re-emphasized several times, they did consult on it a bit. And the scene they showed was very funny.) So, here then is the trailer for A Clüsterfünke Christmas – Comedy Central Dec. 4
