There's too much going on to really describe it. It's a necessary click, though, because it does contain new Chucky lore. It's a big, big party with a hot and spicy gues…

I'm sure everyone is absolutely pumped to see who wins Holiday Cheermeister this year in Whoville, but I got my money on one particular green underdog (I wish it were undergrinch and I was the one under him hubba hubba!).

Wake up all you tub-sleepers! Our main man Truman Burbank is here thanks to Bri Rodebaugh (@brirodebaugh) who has us watch The Truman Show. Do we think the whole world is watching us?

Is that the Halloween theme we hear? NO! It's a different song, this one is called Tubular Bells and it's from The Exorcist. It's also good, but you can tell the difference.
