"It’s the Holiday Season (echo), and whoop-de-do, and Dippin’ Dots, and boy, The Guys have seen so many turns of the clock." Isn’t that how the song goes? And how’s that for an ear worm? But as happens so many times with The Guys - this episode being no exception, and perhaps the greatest example ever - we digress.
With the holiday season come holiday specials, and at long last the Guardians of the Galaxy Holiday Special finally aired, and as it happens, it’s the only one all three Guys have seen. They agree that there were high spots, fun moments, and interesting additions to the MCU canon, but it probably won’t rank in the top 5 MCU productions, unlike Andor in the Star Wars saga. (Which they talk about after the break!) But still worth watching. So Robbie and Art left it to Jay to cover the other holiday specials, aka “Every Streaming Service Needs a Special.” HBO Max gave the world "A Christmas Story Christmas", which Jay loved because all the old (not dead) actors came back.
Apple TV+ brought “Spirited”, with Ryan Reynolds and Will Ferrell singing and dancing and bringing an old story very much to life again. Disney+, not to be outdone, introduced “The Hip Hop Nutcracker” - Jay tried to watch it and follow along until his hip-hop almost went out of joint. Happy Holiday Specials from The Guys! And in between…watch Andor.
