🎄 Santa’s sleigh is grounded in the original video game crash.
The Advent Calendar House kicks off another Christmas countdown by rewinding back to 1982, when Santa found himself stranded in Pac-Man’s neighborhood.
🎙 Lindy and Alicia join us for a stroll through “Christmas Comes to Pacland,” where no one knows about Christmas, but somehow the Ghost Monsters know the words to “Jingle Bells.”
🚨 Warning: Santa spoilers from 11:25 to 13:30.
****
đź’¬ Topics & Tangents:
Santa is flying with 8 reindeer, including Rudolph. Who got the night off?
Why some reindeer actually have red noses.
This might be the first time a Christmas special shows Santa using a computer.
Russi Taylor’s Pac-Baby has the same voice she later used for Robin in “Muppet Babies.”
Absent from this special is the Ghost Monsters’ boss, Mezmaron.
****
đź“Ľ Commercials:
Pac-Man Cereal (1984)
Chef Boyardee Pac-Man Pasta (1984)
A Bomb for Christmas, made for podcast Christmas movie by Tim Babb of the Can’t Wait for Christmas Podcast, co-starring Mike as “Captain Willis.”
