A Betamax Xmas Will Serve All Your Retro Kitschy Holiday Needs

Are you in need of an injection of holiday spirit but can't want to wait for the networks to program another masterpiece from the Rankin/Bass oeuvre for you? If so, we suggest clicking over to A Betamax Xmas, where you'll find a wondrous, rotating assortment of eighties-era holiday kitsch —everything from Cher guesting on Pee Wee's Playhouse Christmas to ALF's Special Christmas— all framed as YouTube insets on a television that comes complete with rabbit ears and snowy reception. Fire up the hot chocolate! [A BetaMaXmas via Metafilter]
