Wierd Christmas Special, with wierd Christmas song:

John Denver and the Muppets singing "Please Daddy Don't Get Drunk This Christmas".

I used to have the sound track on 33 1/3, not sure why though.

No mention of that Big O Christmas episode would be complete without a link to this video, featuring Weird Al's "Christmas at Ground Zero." A song that is no doubt older than many of the users around here Embarassed


Hehe, no worries. Some of us still remember when "Eat It" came out.

@Tsunami3k -- great list, and here's a few more:


Egads, dude. That's a fantastic cache of additions. I hadn't planned on updating the list here but I can't resist adding so many new ones. Thanks for taking the time to list them all out Zalis.

...That said, I do appreciate the suggestions, particularly Tsunami3k's incredibly exhaustive list. It's going to be difficult to resist using it as a cheat sheet for some sort of Christmas column next year.


You're more than welcome to do so. It hardly seems worthwhile to burn time re-compiling a list that's already there. Besides, a list does not an article make; I'm devilishly curious as to what kind of article would result from it.

I'd offer to share my other [rather more ridiculous] "Ultimate" list sometime but it's been stewing on the back-burner of my head for some time now and has yet to make its way to a keyboard. For reasons inexplicable even to me, I have an odd desire to catalog all episodes in which people are standing on rooftops. The problem is that there are countless episodes that qualify.

It's kind of amazing to me, though, that such a scene barely registers with your average seasoned Western anime fan yet, at the same time, it's rather rare behavior for the majority of Western fans to partake in.

I suppose that's getting a bit off topic lest I pose the open query of any Christmas scenes taking place on rooftops. I'll resume my regularly scheduled lurking. Cheers!

Okay, in my opinion, the best Christmas episode ever in existance is the Christmas episode in Kyouran Kazoku Nikki/Crazy Family's Diary in which...

Well, let me just say Kamehameha waves and muscular men are involved.

No contest. Yuouran Kazoku Nikki's Christmas episode tops everything in the list, hands down. (It's episode 21 if anyone wants to look it up.)
