For this edition of Saturday Anime Night, we’re continuing The Melancholy of Haruhi Suzumiya (2006), the smash-hit anime about the wacky adventures of an eccentric, exuberant schoolgirl and her not-quite-as-boisterous friends. Episodes 19 through 24 tonight.

After that is A Christmas Carol (2009), a CGI animated feature from Robert Zemeckis, the guy behind Back to the Future (1985), Who Framed Roger Rabbit (1988), and Forrest Gump (1994), among others. This one uses the same technique as The Polar Express (2004), so pretty much the whole thing looks like a video game cutscene. But hey, it’s got Jim Carrey chewing scenery as Scrooge, so it should still be a good time.

We’ll start at 8PM EST on Hextube, right here:
