Grumpy Nostalgia
Cross over children. All are welcome. We're going back a bit to feature the first ever episode determined by a viewer's poll, the 1982 scare fest Poltergeist. Creepy clowns, little kids with horrible bangs, and a tree that eats little boys. Spielberg made ET the same time he was shooting this so we suppose there was some repressed anger issues so he took it out on this audience. Scarred. For. Life.
