[WhiteRat]

The episode of Family Matters where they get stuck on the subway train but then everyone realizes the true meaning of christmas and they all live happily ever after on the subway train.

[Mockery]

Actually, I'm looking to compile a list of some good Christmas/holiday TV specials. Any shows, old or new, would help, though I'm particularly interested in finding episodes from older shows if any of you would like to help. Anybody know if there was an Xmas episode of MacGyver? I know there was one where he has to rescue a stolen Madonna statue on Christmas eve, but I was wondering if there was something a little more Christmas-oriented in the series.

Same goes for any other shows though. Lemme know if you recall any old TV show or cartoon episodes and we might feature 'em on I-Mockery come December!

[Rabid Child]

Christmas Vacation Deserve an top 10 best moments. I'll look for tv specials on youtube for you -RoG-

[Rabid Child]

The episode of Family Matters where they get stuck on the subway train but then everyone realizes the true meaning of christmas and they all live happily ever after on the subway train.

[Rabid Child]

[Esuohlim]

That was a horrible haiku, liquidstatik >:

But nonetheless I actually 100% agree with that!

[liquidstatik]

i still can't get it right :(

[Misdemonar]

can you get it wrong? :o

[Mystie]

My favorite will always be Muppet Family Christmas.

But, if you're a bit torrent user, sign up at MySpleen.net. They have a fuckton of animated Christmas specials for download. Even some obscure ones like The Raccoons Christmas.

[Grislygus]

Myspleen is back up? Last I heard, it was down indefinitely. Of course, I already have all of the MST3K videos I wanted, so...

[liquidstatik]

Yes, it's up. I just downloaded Rocko season2 ;O

[fastrunner]

National Lampoons Christmas Vacation, A Christmas Story, It's A Wonderful Life, and Miracle on 34th Street.

[AngryTinyMan]

A Charlie Brown Christmas.

And to a lesser extent, It's Christmas Time Again, Charlie Brown.

[Girl Drink Drunk]

Scrooged, Home Alone, Christmas Vacation. As for TV christmas specials, I still love watching that Rugrats christmas episode.

[sadie]

the rugrats are jewish. :rolleyes

[Esuohlim]

Didn't they celebrate Kwanza too once?

(I have younger cousins, ok)

[Girl Drink Drunk]

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rugrats
"The Pickles are a mixed Jewish-Christian family. Many fans say the Pickles are somewhat based on Klasky's real family (for example, as in the show, she is from Southern California and in real life she is a Jew and married to a Christian). There are two episodes that reflect the Pickles' Jewish heritage, one episode deals with the Passover holiday and the other with Hanukkah (in addition to episodes about Christmas, Easter, etc.). These episodes have been praised by Jewish groups and are re-run every year on Nick at the appropriate holiday times and can also be purchased on VHS or DVD."

" * In contrast to the show's tradition of dedicating episodes to explaining the story behind and meaning of Jewish holidays, every portrayal of a Christian holiday has been of a secular nature (and in the instance of Christmas, portrayed simply as a commercial endeavor; in the aforementioned Chaunakah episode, Christmas is actually portrayed as an "antagonist" holiday, as Angelica is too preoccupied with Christmas specials and the concept of presents to want to learn about Jewish heritage)."

Blackadders Christmas Carol.

especially the obese orphans.

[GADZOOKS]

The Home Improvment Christmas special where Brad rejects god to go skiing.

[Jixby Phillips]

remember he is kicking a soccer ball with his skis down the hill and it cuts to god in the sky looking down with a grouch on his face

[Angryhydralisk]

Anybody know if there was an Xmas episode of MacGyver? .


I seen a christmas episode of MacGuyver, -RoG-. Sadly, it sucks. The whole episode is about saving some orphanage, MacGuyver building a stage, and telling a girl that "Ice Cream" can break stage fright.

[Grislygus]

He built that stage with blood, sweat, and tears you ungrateful son of a bitch.

[Angryhydralisk]

He built that stage with blood, sweat, and tears you ungrateful son of a bitch. Or maybe he just moved the stage. I don't remember much except what I said...and that it sucked.

[stitchfan626]

classic christmas movies/shows i like:
Christmas comes to Pac-land (it has pac freakin' man).
Ernest Saves Christmas
Star Wars Holiday Special
Simpsons roasting on an open fire

Current Christmas movies/shows i like:
Family Guy Freakin' Christmas
the Lilo and Stitch: the series episode with Experiment 025 (a.k.a. topper)

[FartinMowler]

the rugrats are jewish. Rolling Eyes

:lol

A Christmas story
Scrooge
Great Escape
Wallice and Gromit
Die Hard trilogy
Leathal Weapon trilogy

[RaNkeri]

Snowman
A christmas story
wonderful life is also great

[sadie]

i think love actually is a pretty awesome christmas-centered movie. it's a bit cheesy at times, but i love british humor, and its star-studded cast easily makes up for it. billy bob thornton as the u.s. president. hugh grant as the prime minister. bill nighy playing guitar naked on tv: "i feel it in my fingers. i feel it in my toes."

[Rabid Child]

One i found underated was Mixed Nuts

[sadie]

[Rabid Child]

he's got a bad case of publoveritis :(

[FartinMowler]

I enjoyed Rabids vids...the Southpark one that I've never seen before was great.

[Rabid Child]

Blood Orgy was the funniest part.

[FartinMowler]

finding out Cartman was the author and having the kids beg him to finish it was the best :rolleyes

[happymedic]

My favourite christmas tv would have to be
Scrooged: Classic Bill Murray Comedy
The Great Escape: A Christmas movie in the sense that it comes on tv every christmas without fail in england
Home Alone I & II: Great films to see with the family

[Rabid Child]

Has anyone seen the super creepy movie Polar Express, Gremlins is more christmassy then that and less scary

[Girl Drink Drunk]

Despite the fact that I lost respect for Family Guy after it's creators choose to revive the series and provide mediocore episodes, I still have love for the Family Guy Christmas special. KISS SAVES SANTA!

[Rabid Child]

Awful news, NBC just made a live action re-make of The Year Without A Santa Clause

[Girl Drink Drunk]

Batman Returns

[Rabid Child]

How about the christmas episode of Tales From the Crypt?

[Immortal Goat]

The Snowman
A Christmas Carol (not the old B&W version, nor the shitfest of the Patrick Stewart version. The George C. Scott version. Best ever.)
Christmas Eve on Sesame Street (shut up, it was part of my childhood)
A Christmas Story (I wait till Christmas Eve to watch this, as it's on 24 hours)
Robbie the Reindeer
How the Grinch Stold Christmas
Home Alone 1&2

That's about it, aside from Christmas Vacation, but I watch that in July simply because it's funny as hell, so that doesn't count.

Robbie The Reindeer The one with the original british voice actors. I've only see that one once now all they play is a crappy one with american actors dubbing over it

[Girl Drink Drunk]

Someone send me a link to Simpsons Roasting on an Open Fire. Quick!
