My co-host, the esteemed Jennifer McHugh, has a bit of an OCD streak. She likes lists; nay, she loves lists. She has lists of her favorite lists, and that's not hyperbole. So, since most TV shows take a break around the holidays, on this week's episode we break down our favorite holiday programs, favorite TV shows, and favorite movies. We also discuss the great first season of Netflix's JESSICA JONES, and a potential addition to the Classic Christmas Comedy Cannon, THE NIGHT BEFORE.

During the episode, we discuss the wonderful USA comedy PSYCH, which ended its eight-season run on USA last year. The show's writers and creators have long believed that they had their premise ripped off by CBS procedural, THE MENTALIST, something we discuss. So, to prove our point, here is the "PSYCH mocking THE MENTALIST" supercut I mention in the episode:
