About

Spencer mined Brian’s catalog of hosted shows and picked this Everybody Loves Raymond holiday episode in which, get this, all of the Barones act like petty misanthropes.

Three sets of Barones gather at Ray and Debra’s house to open gifts, each couple showing a different type of relationship. When Ray’s manipulative plan to blow Debra away with a big gift and take a golf vacation after is exposed, all domestic hell breaks loose.

The Tubers relish seeing so much merchandise from their high school days and debate which of the marital spats they’ve covered in ELR episodes works best.

Highlights

-Gift giving in the year 2000

-Peter Boyle and Doris Roberts steal the show

-Does Everybody Loves Raymond’s Scrooge spirit work in a holiday episode?
