Not sure were Im allowed to ask this here but what was the URL fir the digital goodies? I tried toychest and toybox and got nothing.

And yes, The Live Show was amazing.

Great show.  Especially the last short.

I saw the url right at the beginning and made a mental note not to forget it.

That didn't work, all I remember is trying to make a mental note.  It was something like /gift or /extras or something short, like my memory.

Sorry, I'm looking for them too.

The link for the goodies:  think of the first short.

Great show, although maybe they peaked a bit early. The second short was absolute GOLD. It's as if Harold P Warren made a Christmas short.
The Pork short was weird, and not just Al. The swimming short nearly ran the whole thing aground until the 'Larry' incident. They brought it home with Rudolph and King Ding. Surely the Ding Dong folks knew what they were doing with that....

The goodies, the goodies.....if only there was a toyshop to find some in......

[myleskb]

Sweet!  Thanks,

That swimming short kinda did fade quickly ... but a good recovery.  I wonder why Bill chose that?

[JonnyFrag]

All the horrid jump cuts, camera stops, people in frame, the endless shots of the train set...  absolutely fantastic. Awesome 'callback' to one of my fav mst3ks...Santa's Sidekick: the Prince of Space. Got cheers from our local crowd (maybe 12-20 people?  as well as the Live crowd.
Still funny a couple of hours later.

Good with the whole 'let's get to the riffin' and not try to do a variety show' concept that was different than the Nashville show. Figured Weird Al would have played a song or something (going by the first show's precedent anyway.) Great fun, seemed a bit short...but then again I am so used to seeing all these Rifftrax/CT things live maybe it was just me not hanging out for hours afterward meeting and signing etc...     spoiled.... I know.

Make the next one longer!

Kevin Murphy, I hope you realize appearing in that outfit at the end qualifies as a crime against humanity.

Our theater screwed up and showed previews until about 8:15, then started to show "Old Dogs" before we started yelling and they fixed it. What did we miss?

They started off by showing this short about children having a drug-induced nightmare (I am NOT kidding about this) where they dream about meeting Santa Claus who tells them about a psychotic spider with a top hat and hundreds of toy soldiers.

Oh yah, Prince of Space callback was awesome.  I was watching that ep yesterday.  The stop-motion doll was the creepiest thing I've ever seen.  I couldn't breath and was crying during the uncomfortable innuendos of rudolphs episode.

Saw it in a theater in Grapevine, Texas, not far from Ft. Worth.

Thanks again for remembering us!!

And I'll never look at space robots the same way again! Merry Christmas, Mike!!

Oh god, that must have been a nightmare.

I was thinking they were missing a great joke about the doll when the girl walked in...until I realized that the whole thing was about that creepy Kid n Play doll.  (That's Tarantula's joke)

Ya, ours started with no sound for the first five minuets. Never turned the lights off untill half way through and never turned the lights back on at the end so alot of people were tripping over each other to leave.
