Takes direct aim at the holiday and what it has become over the past five decades or so. It panders to commercialism while at the same time demanding that the “Christ” be put back into Christmas.
Offers some of the strangest and worst the movies have to offer and makes it, at the very least, watchable if not entertaining.

Although there are many familiar elements, the overall look and feel of Transformers Animated is very different from the original show. It’s not all a bad thing just as long as I remember that I’m no longer the target audience.
What Oliver has to say might not be the most comforting, but rather than stating the potentially inevitable as a doomsday scenario, he makes it funny, enlightening and educational.
Hopefully some of that edge returns as the show moves forward and Gossip Girl can return to its bad but addictive ways.
