Have you seen the Judy Garldand Show Christmas Special lately, D???
My best friend has a viewing every year and we sit in absolute SHOCK that this was ever aired. First, Liza's 'beau' Tracey something-or-other??? The one who choreographed the STEAM HEAT number (that perennial Xmas favorite). And for whom little Joey Luft has an unnatural affinty? BRILLIANT! And a hottie too!
And Jack Jones? The man DESPERATELY tried to make it through the evening and had to cover Judy's ass time and again.
But I will never, NEVER get over the sleigh ride medley in which Judy just forgets to sing and seems to have a conversation in her head with...I HAVE NO IDEA! Toto, maybe?
Add to it her hatred for and revenge on Mel Torme, the disturbing dancing Santas straight out of SUBWAYS ARE FOR SLEEPING and Lorna beating herself up for every mistake (hers and everyone else's) and you have the GREATREST Christmas special of all time.
