RiffTrax Shorts

This holiday short takes a very 50s look at 'far' places, using the always culturally sensitive device of "forcing some confused kids into ridiculous costumes and pointing a camera at them." Several of these children have lit candles strapped to their heads and at one point they construct, you guessed it, a Mitten Tree!

Spunky the Snowman! He's like Frosty's dirtbag second cousin, the kind of snowman who's had a tooth knocked out of his mouth at more than one wedding. Spunky's like Frosty without the charm or the clean arrest record. Put it this way, when you hear him going "thumpity thump thump", he's not romping over the fields of snow, if you catch our drift.

Yes, poor Peppy, Zippo, and Click, Santa's elves who look like an Anne Geddes calendar that got Dorian Grayed, are here to help Santa deliver toys all around the world in one night. Perhaps they should have hired a logistics planner as well, because this short strongly implies that Santa returns to the North Pole to restock his sled with presents after every single house.

This short checks all the standard "weird old holiday cartoon" boxes: It's got a poor orphan boy, and toys coming to life in terrifying bounce-up-and-down fashion. A cat as an electric power source to run a bubble tree. Santa coming into a house through a radio to dump a bunch of toys in a stove. Okay, those last two might not be standard. But that's the magic of Gifts from the Air!

You know 'em, you love 'em - and so do Bridget and Mary Jo! Our favorite agrarians from summer and autumn are back once again to tackle the icy chills of winter. It's Farm Family in Winter! Warning: graphic images of winter in the Midwest.

If you've never cooked a turkey or if you just want to hear a LOT of information about them then join Bridget and Mary Jo as they learn such terms as white meat, dark meat, giblets and viscera! Discover with them the many uses for America's number one flightless bird! C'mon, Let's Talk Turkey! You know you want to.

A job in any kind of factory is basically a death sentence. There are so many exciting ways to get hurt! You might be a Hothead, or you might be more of a Forgetter. One of them loses his temper too easily, while the other can't remember stuff. They're two injury-filled tastes that taste even better together, so yell at the safety goggles you forgot to put on and join Mike, Kevin, and BIll!
