O Tempora! O Mores!

Might as well toddle off to the hot bath with the ol' pocket knife and get it over with. From J-Pod:

This Christmas, there will be a live-action television remake of the 1970s puppet special "The Year Without a Santa Claus," starring John Goodman as Santa, Harvey Fierstein as the Heat Miser and Michael McKean as the Snow Miser. This is nothing short of a desecration.

Is nothing sacred?

(Incidently, back in school the Missus and I went to a Halloween party as Heat Miser (her) and Cold Miser (self). We looked preposterous.)

UPDATE: More! Delta Burke as Mrs. C? Carol Kane as Mother Nature? AAAIIIEEEEEEE!!!!

If they ever do a live action "Santa Claus is Comin' to Town" I will be livid. That is my all-time favorite Christmas show!

I mean really, how can they improve on those shows?
