Like most people from my generation, I’m sure that I learned all of my Christmas morals from Aaron Spelling serials. When I nailed a half court shot at a basketball game, I donated my winnings to the Alvarado Street After School Care Program. Or when I was working at a posh boutique, I invited the kindly (and not at all mentally ill) gentleman playing Santa Claus on the corner home for Christmas Eve dinner. Of course, nothing beats the time that I chewed out my alcoholic co-worker at Friends and Family day at her rehab.
You know, when it comes to the holidays, I think to myself: What would Michael Mancini do? I’m pretty sure it goes something like this: undettered by his wheelchair, Michael attempts to get back with Jane, his ex-wife, with whom he’s now living with again due to a firey crash that killed his fiancee, Kimberly. Of course, that’s not all there is in this clip. We have Matt wearing a sweater Bill Cosby discarded, Amanda dressed in white like the Arch Angel of Bitches in Heels, and Billy and Allison being the world’s most boring couple. I’m also pretty sure that I’ve been to a Christmas party in the same building that Jane’s new boyfriend (and divorce lawyer) lives in.
Happy Holidays!

Most of my morals in general are learned from Aaron Spelling shows. I would have had no idea how to react to my mother paying my boyfriend $10,000 to go away if it weren’t for Donna Martin. But the lessons learned from Melrose Place are especially treasured. Without Sydney I would have no idea how to blackmail my sister’s ex-husband into marrying me (which would have worked if psycho Kimberly hadn’t come back from the dead). Thanks Aaron!
Speaking of lessons learned from Sydney, how about making the best out of being kidnapped by your sister’s new boyfriend in Vegas?
Sydney took life’s lemons and made lemonade.
Thanks Mr. Spelling, indeed….
I almost just died on a school bus fighting with Kelly, but 2 angels intervened. Whew. Now I just have to be haunted by my dead boss while I take some time off at Pity Me Pines….
Sydney took life’s lemons and made Fanta.
