A Chanukah Celebration, KVCR, 12/19/06

The other night, I was trolling through the Tivo guide looking for something to watch when I stumbled upon an obscure PBS outlet. Just about to start was none other than A Chanukah Celebration, hosted by the inimitable Fran Drescher. I knew I had to record this ode to the Festival of Lights, but not because I was feeling like a particularly sterling Jew that night. No, it was because I knew it would be a train wreck. I’m still deciding whether or not it’s embarrassing or brilliant. Probably embarrassing. Nevertheless, in this first clip, Fran welcomes us to the show with a lovely menorah anecdote. I personally enjoy how she suppresses all her “I am so yelling at my agent after this” rage in order to muster a fake giggle at the prospect of introducing the latest thrilling installment of “Mitzvah Mouse.”

A second clipgasm is now up, and all I can say, is that it’s pretty damn amazing.

    Wow. I hope most Chanukah shows aren’t so painful. I’m still giggling.

    Does Fran have laryngitis or was she sedated before filming this? She usually talks like Gilbert Godfried!

    Oh please post Mizvah Mouse. I was hoping that the second clipgasm would star the (I can only assume) intrepid rodent.
