Greetings, Midnight Viewers. Father Malone here. No Roundup this week as Ripley and I are engaged in our holiday rituals. As such, we thought we'd kick off this season of wither with an episode from a show I wrote and produced a few years back. It's a travelogue of infamous fictional towns; in this case, Bedford Falls. Where an angel once granted a wish and things have never been the same.

Is the numerical coding correct? Are only the even numbered Trek films good? Fuck no. Case in point. Leonard Nimoy takes the reigns as Kirk and Co. steal the Enterprise and set off to rescue the corpse of their friend.
