Behold this clip from the 1976 Sonny and Cher Christmas Special, featuring the following:

• Sonny and Cher (at that time, divorced)
• Bernadette Peters
• Captain Kangaroo (!)
• Shields and Yarnell (trigger warning alert: mimes)
• Poor little awkward Chastity Bono
• And the moment starting at 2:05 which makes it allllll worth it.

HAPPY HOLIDAYS, EVERYBODY!

Bang bang, choo-choo train, let me see you shake that thang. Wm. Steven Humphrey is the editor-in-chief of the Portland Mercury and has held the job since 2000. (So don’t get any funny ideas.)
