Winter holiday episodes of fannish shows
What are your favorite winter holiday episodes/specials of fannish shows? Any winter holiday is eligible (Christmas, Hannukkah, New Year's, Solstice, Diwali...) and any show you consider fannish. Yet these episodes do have to come out of regular shows; my dear Rankin/Bass holiday specials universe is ineligible, as are feature films.
Bonus points for identifying the season, episode number, and title, to help folks find and enjoy the episode, whether on streaming or DVD. :-D
My own all-time favorite by total rewatches is Blackadder's Christmas Carol, a parody of Dickens' tale, which was a standalone special produced between Seasons 3 and 4 (Wikipedia entry). Runner up is the Pinky & the Brain Christmas episode, which is now found with Season 1, but was originally a prime-time special, in which the mice do what they always do, but at Christmas, with overflowing measure of Pinky's sweet heart (Wikipedia entry).
How about you? Any Buffyverse episodes? PBS/BBC Masterpiece Theater series specials? Very old shows from your childhood, very recent shows from this year...?
Thanks!
