"The 12 Days of Christmas Episodes"
Community – “Abed’s Uncontrollable Christmas”
Original airdate 12/9/10
There’s a reason I saved this one for last – it’s awesome. It is done almost entirely in stop-motion animation, just like the old Rankin-Bass specials (like Rudolph or The Year without a Santa Claus). That’s fantastic in and of itself, but the gimmick is actually addressed [...]
The Simpsons – “Miracle on Evergreen Terrace”
Original airdate 12/21/97
The story begins on Christmas Eve. Marge decrees that nobody will get near their presents until7 AM, and Bart can’t wait that long. He drinks twelve glasses of water so he’ll wake up nice and early, and when he wakes up to pee at 5 [...]

Original airdate 12/5/97

Dream Crossovers – Party Down, Greendale!
26 Jan 2012
You know what I’m starting to miss? Crossovers. Sure, NBC kind of drove them into the ground back in the “Must See TV” era, using them to try to trick people into watching things like The Single Guy. (“If Ross from Friends likes him, shouldn’t you?” was the unspoken rhetorical question.) It’s been a while [...]
