Christmas Comes to Pacland

from Advent Calendar House · host Mike Westfall

🎄 Santa’s sleigh is grounded in the original video game crash.  The Advent Calendar House kicks off another Christmas countdown by rewinding back to 1982, when Santa found himself stranded in Pac-Man’s neighborhood.  🎙 Lindy and Alicia join us for a stroll through “Christmas Comes to Pacland,” where no one knows about Christmas, but somehow the Ghost Monsters know the words to “Jingle Bells.”  🚨 Warning: Santa spoilers from 11:25 to 13:30.  ****  💬 Topics & Tangents:  Santa is flying with 8 reindeer, including Rudolph. Who got the night off?  Why some reindeer actually have red noses.  This might be the first time a Christmas special shows Santa using a computer.  Russi Taylor’s Pac-Baby has the same voice she later used for Robin in “Muppet Babies.”  Absent from this special is the Ghost Monsters’ boss, Mezmaron.  ****  📼 Commercials:  Pac-Man Cereal (1984)  Chef Boyardee Pac-Man Pasta (1984)  A Bomb for Christmas, made for podcast Christmas movie by Tim Babb of the Can’t Wait for Christmas Podcast, co-starring Mike as “Captain Willis.”  ****  “Christmas Comes to Pacland” © 1982 Hanna-Barbera Productions.  Find us at adventcalendar.house.  #s5 #1980s #hannabarbera #videogames
