What’s up, dudes? It’s 1988, and Jim Varney cashed in on his signature character from countless commercial! Laramy Wells from Moving Panels, DJ Chad Sheppard, and Robert Nicholas from Behind the Bells join me to talk all about “Ernest Saves Christmas!” What a wild ride!
Synopsis
Ernest P. Worell, a sweet but silly taxi driver who at times suffers delusions of grandeur, has just chauffeured a rather extraordinary fare: “His Great Red Oneness, the Claus” himself. Santa has neither the will nor magic for another Christmas season, and has come to Orlando, Florida for Joe Carruthers, whom he has chosen as his successor.
Things quickly begin to unravel, however, thanks to Joe’s meddling agent and Santa’s increasingly unreliable memory. Incredibly, dimwitted Ernest soon becomes Santa’s only hope! Joining forces with a young runaway named “Harmony Star,” Ernest rushes to save the holidays as we know them. Oh, and Joe does inherit the mantle of Santa. Consequently, Christmas is saved!
Disguises? Check. Quirky characters? Yep. Christmas magic? Definitely! So put on your cap and vest, hope in your have and drive into this episode on “Ernest Saves Christmas!” KnoWhutIMean?
