Have you ever met a person with the last name “Scrooge”? If you were named Scrooge, would you just assume that a visit by three Christmas ghosts is an inevitability? Is it, like, a rite of passage in that family?

I wonder how many times they've genderbent this story. The only time I've seen it before is with Vanessa Williams. I think it's interesting to see a woman in the role because you don't often see redemption arcs for female villains. (The "she was really a hero the whole time, just misunderstood" stories don't count.)

There’s a few. One with Cicely Tyson, one with Susan Lucci from Lifetime. And funnily enough, there’s also Barbie in A Christmas Carol.

Even just the portion of the song in that clip was catchy- sign me up! Looks good (looks lower-budget than I was expecting, but good).
