We have arrived at the end of 2009, and we've got four delightful Christmas specials to look back upon today!
Original airing on December 10, 2009, I'm discussing Community S01E12, "Comparative Religion"; Parks and Recreation S02E12, "Christmas Scandal"; The Office S06E13, "Secret Santa"; and 30 Rock S04E08, "Secret Santa".
Not only do two episodes have the same title; but there's tons of other coincidences and links between these shows and everything else airing on Thursday that it must be some sort of Christmas miracle. Some other tangents I explore are: the opening of the highest grossing movie of all time, "Avatar", and what few things I remember about it; getting a quota of at least one Canadian character per night; a brand new record for the amount of quotes I use from a single episode; another record in how many times we see one director in one night; and a very tenuous link to Festivus.
Happy Holidays; everyone, even if it's only the middle of June!
