[QUOTE=Morbo] Don’t forget _Blame it on the Rain_, _Firestorm_, and _Prognosis Negative_. [/QUOTE] But definitely not _Sack Lunch_. No, I couldn’t care less how they got in that sack. 🙂 ---

[QUOTE=ChrisBooth12] I really wish i could see “kiss saves santa” from famiy guy. That looked like the best Movie within a TV show ever. [/QUOTE] This reminds me–what was the name of that Santa movie in “Scrooged”? The one where Lee Majors saves Santa? I’d totally see that! ---

Since a lot of people are saying Itchy & Scratchy, I’ll have to put in a vote for the show which hosts it: I’d love to see a full episode of _The Krusty the Klown Show_. Either that, or any of the movies we might remember Troy McClure from. ---

I’d like to see “Conan the Librarian”, from\* UHF\*. Also from the same movie, “Raoul’s Pet Shop”, and “Gandhi II”. Oh, oh, and a complete game show episode of “Wheel of Fish.” ---

The production of “Romeo & Juliet” from “Hot Fuzz.” Well, maybe only until the intermission, but I’d definitely slip back in for the final act. ---

Anna Scott’s _Helix_ looked visually stunning, though it sounded like a real downer (Just like all the anime these days—::rimshot:: yowza! Thank you, I’ll be here all week.). Probably not much skin in it, though. ☹ ---

I just saw the episode of Futurama where Fry downloads Lucy Liu, and _Chalie’s Angels III: The Legend of Charlie’s Gold_ looks hilarious. It has an explosion _and_ a vampire! ---

“Everybody Loves Hypnotoad”. It just seems so engrossing. ---

I’d like to see a full production of “Heaven and Hell” Max Fisher’s Vietnam play from Rushmore. In fact, I’d like to see all the plays he is supposed to have authored including “Serpico” and his little one-act play about Watergate. ---

Another vote for Krusty the Klown. The clips of it on the Simpsons are very inconsistant. I’d also like to read all of Paul Sheldon’s “Misery” books mentioned in Stephen King’s novels. ---

[QUOTE=ChrisBooth12] … i would love to see “Angles with filthy souls” from the home alone series. The black and white gangsta movie. [/QUOTE] You should probably take a look at [Angels with Dirty Faces](http://imdb.com/title/tt0029870/) , the black and white gangster movie. Cause it’s, you know, great and stuff. I would love to see the collected works for Hwel the Dwarf, from _Wyrd Sisters_, with the rollerskates, and cats, and crashing chandeliers, and the three clowns, one of whom says nothing and just does the business with the bladder on a stick. ---

“The Scary Monkey Show” from **Invader Zim**. Does anything actually ever happen, or do you just stare at the scary monkey? Also, “Probing the Membrane of Science” with Professor Membrane. ---
