Christmas TV Episodes

Okay, here's a topical question: what do you guys think are some of the greatest Christmas-themed TV episodes? Not specials, but holiday episodes like the Festivus one of
Seinfeld. I've got my own list here: Top 10 Christmas-Themed TV Episodes Feature Story. But what do you think?

Interesting episodes you've listed off.

I'm mixed on holiday episodes, but for the most part they are just pure fun.

Some of my more memorable ones:

Bones 1x09 The Man in the Fallout Shelter - where the squint squad and Booth are stuck in quarantine on Christmas.

Bones 3x10 The Santa in the Slush - where Booth and Brennan investigate the death of Kris Kringle. This was a great classic holiday episode, with such holiday cheer and fun mixed with true hard emotion. Such as Booth thinking he couldn't spend the holiday with his son, and Brennan making arrangements to have her criminal father have a holiday. And of course Caroline scheming to have Booth and Brennan kiss under the mistletoe.

Third Watch 5x10 The Spirit - wow, grumpy Sully plays Santa and Bos arrests a Santa and Sasha goes on the great onion hunt and Jimmy and Kim kiss and Ty trying to decorate with Carlos and Bos's sad memory of how he used to go by Faith's with her on Christmas and ... well you get the point.

JAG 5x11 Ghosts of Christmas Past - where Harm has flashback memories ....

JAG 7x11 Answered Prayers - isn't this where we first met Coates?

JAG 10x10 The Four Percent Solution - Mac crashes her car, flashbacks and discussions with a base therapist .

Wow Jag had quite a few Christmas episodes.


I love "Amends" from Buffy. I'll have to get back to you guys on the rest.

I also loved 'Amends' from BTVS - great Christmas ep. Frasier always had great Christmas eps too.

for the later seasons, JAG had literally a Christmas episode every year. But some were not as strong as others.

I usually love the whole different festive feel about them. It's like everything is possible, you know?
