if you dislike shows like Kevin Can Wait, you need to look up "Kevin can F*** Himself". It's a very dark comedy where the husband is living in a sitcom and the wife is living in a horror / drama series. Throughout the two seasons, she draws more and more of the cast out of his world and into hers as she plots to kill him.
Regarding the scene where Brian and Stewie struggle to deliver the gifts...someone should've told him that in some cases, Santa has the power to stop time. THIS is what allows him to deliver gifts to so many houses in one night
9:33 or give santa advance tec like toy making machines & a ship like in Arthur charismas i now this was before the movie was made but still 10:18 i perfer if its more like american dad charismas wear peter & cris accidently shot santa and there was a battle of the griffens & santa army and then peter vs santa
American Dad For Whom the Sleigh Bell Tolls is my favorite Christmas episode. It's so delightfully over the top and all the jokes land. It's American Dad at it's best.
Yeah, in the original version of the song, Peter's lyrics has: Britney Spears and Courtney Cox Wearing nothing but their socks Is all I really want for Christmas this year!
I thought you were gonna rank the Christmas episodes but cool video nonetheless. Road to North Pole is the definitive Christmas special of Family Guy but when it comes to Christmas episodes, nothing beats the first Simpsons episode
I was planning to, but unfortunately being this close to Christmas and me moving house, I just didn't have the time to write in detail about 12 episodes. I saw that Sweaty Clam just released that video, but I don't have a huge team like they do. Maybe next year 🙂
fanatics will whine that it wasn’t supposed to be the first episode, but let’s be realistic: it’s the perfect episode for the premiere…and nit just because it’s the 35th anniversary today nor that it’s the first birthday present i got that had an impact after a few weeks(got to stay up and watch it!)
"Road to the North Pole" is such a solid Christmas Special one of the better stuff to come out of Family Guy. "A Very Special Family Guy Freakin' Christmas" is also pretty good being that it's their first Christmas episode and has all lot of charm that the early seasons had. As for the rest of the they range from meh to just plain bad.
Road to the North Pole is not only the best Christmas episode, but the best Road to episode, and my personal favorite family guy episode overall of all time.
@ that one kinda sucks. I love the invasion sequence when they’re dancing but it implies that the Germans made it to Warsaw in like an hour. Also it acts like the Battle of Britain started the next day
Since the song All I Really Want For Christmas was produced in the early 2000s, I wonder if Cleveland Brown originally had a part in the song? Because the song was released around the time he had his own show, 2010.
“Each jingle bell is a requiem knell and while you think it’s swell we are toiling in Hell!” Road to the North Pole is one of the best episodes of the whole show
Road to the North Pole is one of the most realistic Christmas specials in my opinion, because it actually plays around with how Santa might work if he existed in our world.
Ngl that "nostalgic for the 90s" quote about the simpsons book was like the single best thing to say to sell me XD (Even though I was born In '04 but y'know)
Bobs burgers has 2 really great christmas episodes, christmas in the car and the plight before christmas. Some of my favorite episodes in the whole show
@@LydiaLovesTimelines I like family guy just like you do Lydia and if you like quagmire and Brian episodes you’re in luck because one is coming soon if you watched the sneak peek of season 23
I would love to hear your ranking of every Simpsons episode ranked Amazing Work, Liyda. I hope you have a great Christmas, and I can't wait to see 2025 your videos ❤
One of my favorite Christmas episodes is “How the super stoled Christmas” from a little forgotten claymated gem called “The PJs”. A greedy and lazy superintendent (played by Eddie Murphy)of a housing projects repossesses a bunch of property from his deadbeat neighbors to buy his wife a computer, but has a change of heart when he sees how sad everyone is. A delightful parody of the grinch, just with grime and crackheads.
The Kevin James episode is barely about Christmas. At least the newest Holiday Special had a very nice Christmas Vibe and there, Meg was actually being cared about on Christmas.
Road to North Pole is so great. I absolutely love the opening song and the music throughout. One of my favourite Road to episodes. I just noticed you have Clyde frog in the back 😆
Favourite Family Guy Christmas Special: Road to the North Pole Favourite Animated Christmas Special: Xmas Story (Futurama). It has a sweet story which focuses on Fry and Leela. And we have a Robot Santa who accuses everyone for being naughty except for Dr Zoidberg. How is that not hilarious?
Road to the north pole is probably their best, a very special family guy freaking Christmas is there more grounded, down to earth christmas episode and how the griffins stole christmas is their fun casual episode.
Road to the North Pole used to be one of the gems my Christmas Watchlist growing up, with the Polar Express and Elf! Thank you for recognizing its greatness. In my Opinion, Road to the North Pole, And Then There Were Fewer, all the Star Wars Episodes, and Road to the Multiverse was some of family guy's most well done stuff.
Santa’s workshop being a rundown factory works because it’s part of the story and commentary; the elves aren’t inbreeding because inbreeding is funny, but because Santa needs more damn elves! And because inbreeding is funny. Because “Santa’s workshop but everything is edgy and dark” is boring unless there’s some kinda reason for it. She’s right it’s the creativity that makes it!
I totally agree that Road to The North Pole is spectacular, All I Really Want for Christmas is the first song I think of when it comes to Family Guy songs. However, I love Jesus, Mary and Joseph just a little bit more. I am from the bible belt and grew going to a church not to far from my house. Even though I am not really a religious person anymore, these jokes still hit so well for me. All of that being said, The Return of the King (of Queens) is by the far the worst Family Guy Christmas episode and I find it hard to believe that anything they make in the future would dethrone that.
I totally love "Road to the North Pole". I do also love the very first Christmas episode "A Very Special Family Guy Freakin' Christmas." Who remembers that episode?
I agree road to the north pole is the best of the Christmas episode episodes that Family Guy has put out. I miss their road too shows. I understand. They can’t put them out all the time, but it would be nice if they could once in a while.
My ranking of all the christmas episodes: 1. Road to the North Pole (S9) 2. Dont Be a Dickens at Christmas (S16) 3. A Very Special FG Freakin Christmas (S3) 4. The First No L (S19) 5. How the Griffin Stole Christmas (S15) 6. Christmas Guy (S12) 7. Christmas Crime (S20) 8. Jesus Mary and Joseph (S11) 9. Christmas is Coming (S18) 10. The Gift of the White Guy (S23) 11. The 2000-year old virgin (S13) 12. The Return of the King of Queens (S22)
Road to the north pole is probably their best, a very special family guy freaking Christmas is there more grounded, down to earth christmas episode and how the griffins stole christmas is their fun casual episode.
Road to the North Pole is god tier to me. I could watch that for hours on end. The return of the king of queens is total garbage. Amazing and splendid video. 😊👍
Some of the scenes from the Christmas special were cut in the UK due to time constraints. Turning it from a 40 minute special down to a regular 25 minute syndication.
Not a full episode, but my favorite Christmas anything from an adult animated show would have to be “This Trinity’s Going to War” from the first Futurama movie.
I personally love the Christmas special in American dad where Steve accidentally killed the real Santa thx to the gun Stan gave him, and they end up in a lifelong feud with Santa. The storyline gets insanely weird in the later Christmas specials. Like how Jack Smith became krampus. But I still enjoy the original episode the most. The one where they battle Santa with the help of that crazy moonshiner is another honorable mention.
For the next Christmas themed special on Family Guy, I vote for an It's A Wonderful Life kind of story; one centered on either Peter or Brian. With Peter, it would be interesting to see just how different not only his family's lives would be without him but also the town's. As for Brian; sure, we may have had a series of episodes featuring a different dog in the Griffin House (namely Vinny.) But that doesn't necessarily represent an ACTUAL life without him around. I like to think that without Brian's presence; Stewie would successfully murder Lois, Meg would commit suicide due to not having anyone in her family give her some self worth and Peter's general shenanigans would probably lead to the town's destruction
Hi ya Lydia! I 10,000% agree that road to the north pole is by far the best one in fact it’s the only Family Guy Christmas episode that I can remember without going back into the show itself! You’re analysis as usual was dead on! I completely forgot about the debacle that was the Kevin James episode from last year until you just mentioned it again. It definitely seems like it’s the worst one they’ve ever made yikes! Sorry you had to suffer through that again! I don’t know if you have a video planned for next week as it would be the last week before Christmas hits I think based on how often you usually upload here, but if not or for next year, have you thought about doing a video on just animated Christmas episodes and specials in general that could really work as yearly watches? I have a whole list of ones that I watch every year. I think it would be awesome to know your favorites!
Hey Josh, that sounds like a fun idea. What christmas episodes would you recomend? I actually just watched the Arthur TV show Christmas episode for the first itme since I was a kid the other day, still love it!
@@LydiaLovesTimelines I’m out of the house right now when I’m reading your reply but I will definitely get back to you with a list when I get home. Glad you like the idea! That’s awesome it’s been a while since I’ve seen that one.
A freaking family guy christmas is the best, compact, funny on almost every minute, that peak character breaking moment of Lois and both the speeches from Peter and Stewie told a modern satirical yet heartwarming take on the christmas season Plus it's 3 kings joke was so good the Hulu special ripped it off twice and nothing can top "Merry Christmas to all and to all shut the hell up" lol
A unique idea perhaps for a Valentine's Day video. Dive into the major characters of family guy and learn how many times a character got married, how many times the marriages ended and how many times a character cheated on their wife/girlfriend
These elves traumatized me at 10 (my dad loved watching FG and they had no problem letting me join past like 8 I think 😅 they just didn’t explain the jokes I didn’t get lol) but contrary to many media who weirded me out, this episode was so good I kept watching it and the elves just became ok to me in the end 😂 also I know you literally showed him say (Seth came out of my penis) but as a dummy I never clocked this really was really Seth’s dad before 😂
“never seen it depicted like this before” i believe this was an “homage” to Futurama’s Neptunian workshop which was very similar but with a psychopathic Santa instead of a sympathetic one
Road to the North Pole is amazing 👏 and I love the opening song 🎵 All I want for Christmas 🎄 I uploaded it to my mp3 player and played it constantly 😅😂
Are the books only avaliable in english? I have a friend who loves the simpsons and I got her at secret santa and I would like to buy her one of them as a secret santa. She does not speak english, only portuguese and spanish
Some guy shared the first chrismas episode on youtube without zoom and cuts I was very fortune because it was brought down the next day . The episode was amazing very wholesome.
for me there Best Family Guy Christmas episode is Road To The North Pole it's the definition of a Christmas Special to re-watch during the holiday Season from the Road to Adventure of Brain and Steiwe to the music to how Dark the North Pole to the Christmas Time is Killing Us to Brain spreading the message to Help Santa by just having one present a year when in reality we need more then one present but it's what I consider a Great Family Guy Christmas episode the one to avoid re-watching during the holiday season is Christmas is Coming where Meg has a sexual fantasy of Santa Claus most of there jokes were NOT Funny most and all of it just Because Meg had a fantasy of Santa Claus when it was a tennis player which no one even knows who it was and Not even worth looking it up because it just Doesn't put you in the Christmas Spirit and The Return of The King of Queens was just Meh and barley felt like a Christmas episode it felt like your typical Family Guy episode with Kevin James shoehorned into it with a Christmas theme thrown into it and None of there Jokes where NOT All That Funny it was precipitable as your typical sitcom and it was a Bore to sit through so yeah The Return of The King of Queens is another must skip for the holiday season those are my thoughts on The Best and the WORST of Family Guy Christmas episodes
foe me Road To The North Pole is the Best Christmas Episode that truly felt like an hour long Special that actually felt like a Road to episode with a Stewie and Brain tried and Failed to help Santa but they've managed to help Santa at the end
tbh the only thing i hated about the most recent special is that stewie didn't say over in the walkie talkie joke like did they forget the other walkie talkie joke???
Hey Lydster, how are you doing? Need to rewatch Road To The North Pole, probably before my birthday on the 23rd. Lucky fella, I am. My favourite Family Guy Christmas special is the first one, maybe through nostalgia because it was one of the first FG episodes I watched, along with the Y2K episode Da Boom. Interesting fact: Da Boom is inexplicably rated PG over here, for obvious reasons every single other episode is rated at least 12. The difference between the UK and US age ratings is very funny to me. For example, Gremlins, Beetlejuice and Poltergeist are all rated 15 here, and PG over there. The aforementioned Ghost With The Most is actually on BBC2 this Xmas Eve, because I'm sure that when you think Christmas, you think of a creepy old guy attempting to marry a 15 year old too... right? The Beeb are following Beej with The Rocky Horror Picture Show, so it seems that it's Christmas time, but there might actually be need to be afraid after all. See what I did there? You can steal that one if you like. Nah, maybe not then. I could never be a comedy writer. 🙂 Favourite Christmas special ever is a tough one. I would say Only Fools And Horses: The Jolly Boys Outing. I know it's set in August but it was first shown on Christmas Day so I'm kind of cheating. If it has to be SET at Christmas then I'm going for Holy, an episode of the early 90s sitcom Bottom, which I think is hilarious because I am extremely immature. 😆 In your last Simpsons video when you spoke about people scheming to get into first class, it reminded me of an episode of Seinfeld, imaginatively titled The Airport. The Airport starts with Seinfeld and his friend Elaine getting on a plane where Seinfeld immediately steals the first class seat so he can sit next to a model. Elaine then spends the rest of the episode attempting, and failing, to get into first class. The airport end up deliberately losing her luggage because she keeps pissing the flight attendants off. I bet you wish you could do that to some of your passengers! I do wonder how accurate the episode is, so maybe you could check it out and let me know? I'm curious and would really appreciate it. The only thing I think sounds a bit strange is that the episode mentions that someone new to the flight attendant job might not get the uniform on day one so might have to start work in their everyday clothes. It must be true but I find it bizarre. To be clear, I'm not mocking you, the following dialoge is in the episode: "Sir, you're making a scene, sit down!" "Who the hell are you?" "I'm the flight attendant." "Oh yeah, well, I'm the pilot, alright?" While I'm still on this video, and before my dumb arse forgets, Merry Christmas Lyds. 😊🎄
Hey Jack 👋 Yeah UK age restrictions have always been odd, very strict in some areas, but then randomly lenient on some other movies. I remeber watching a documentary a while ago about the video nasties. Love Only Fools and Horses Christmas specials. James' favourite is the Vicker of Dibleys ones. I'll have to check that out. I know an airline will definitely not let you wear your civilian clothes. They were extremely strict with uniforms. Merry Christmas 😊🎄
Road to the north pole will forever be a top tier adult cartoon episode/special. I don't think I've ever seen a christmas episode of anything else that has left as much of an impression on me as this one. Its a true shame the state that family guy is in currently.

GREAT LYDIA LOVES TIMELINES FAMILY GUY BEST CHRISTMAS EPISODE VS THE WORST EPISODE
9:33 or give santa advance tec like toy making machines & a ship like in Arthur charismas i now this was before the movie was made but still
10:18 i perfer if its more like american dad charismas wear peter & cris accidently shot santa and there was a battle of the griffens & santa army and then peter vs santa
In what makes it even darker is in the song Santa mentions that he's only 28
EXCELLENT LYDIA LOVES TIMELINES WORK. 🎉🎉🎉🎉❤❤❤🎉🎉🎉🎉
Wow so deep bro
Stewie: This can't be it. This can't be Santa's workshop. This looks like Bridgeport, Connecticut
Brian: Oh, boy! Here come the angry fan letters
American Dad For Whom the Sleigh Bell Tolls is my favorite Christmas episode. It's so delightfully over the top and all the jokes land. It's American Dad at it's best.
American dad well is superior to family guy, but the christmas eps are always bangers
Same, definitely my favorite Christmas episode but road to north pole is a close second
@KK-fb9nz Absolutely it is and they are, yes. American Dad I can still stand to watch.
All the American dad Christmas episodes before the krampus one go hard
I will be covering more American Dad soon on this channel. My next video is the love life of Hayley. It's looking to be my longest video yet
Road to the North Pole will aways be my favorite
Yes! It has a great opening and also love the songs.
That was my least favorite episode. It was too dark for me.
Yeah, in the original version of the song, Peter's lyrics has:
Britney Spears and Courtney Cox
Wearing nothing but their socks
Is all I really want for Christmas this year!
I prefer the one with Lois going primal when everyone else messes up Christmas
I thought you were gonna rank the Christmas episodes but cool video nonetheless. Road to North Pole is the definitive Christmas special of Family Guy but when it comes to Christmas episodes, nothing beats the first Simpsons episode

I love the Road to Episodes and this one is one of my favourites but I also love Road to Germany.
@ that one kinda sucks. I love the invasion sequence when they’re dancing but it implies that the Germans made it to Warsaw in like an hour. Also it acts like the Battle of Britain started the next day
@goldenfiberwheat238 I just find it to be a good storyline to go with and it has some great moments in it. It's a good episode imo
Christmas time is killing us is such a banger
Since the song All I Really Want For Christmas was produced in the early 2000s, I wonder if Cleveland Brown originally had a part in the song? Because the song was released around the time he had his own show, 2010.

Favourite Animated Christmas Special: Xmas Story (Futurama). It has a sweet story which focuses on Fry and Leela. And we have a Robot Santa who accuses everyone for being naughty except for Dr Zoidberg. How is that not hilarious?
I watched RTTNP every December 1st to get into the holiday spirit. Its such a great episode, and is my all-time favorite
12:46 I love the "Guardians of the Galaxy"-Christmas-Special
Welcome back Lydia! 🎉
Love your vids Lydia! Keep up the amazing work!
Road to the north pole is probably their best, a very special family guy freaking Christmas is there more grounded, down to earth christmas episode and how the griffins stole christmas is their fun casual episode.
Its almost Christmas, love "the best vs the worst" Videos.
the Little Troll Prince is an underrated Christmas special
U have a perfect talking voice for explaining these videos its soothing but thanks 💯🤣
Road to the North Pole used to be one of the gems my Christmas Watchlist growing up, with the Polar Express and Elf! Thank you for recognizing its greatness. In my Opinion, Road to the North Pole, And Then There Were Fewer, all the Star Wars Episodes, and Road to the Multiverse was some of family guy's most well done stuff.
Fun fact there's an uncensored version of "All I want for Xmas".
Santa’s workshop being a rundown factory works because it’s part of the story and commentary; the elves aren’t inbreeding because inbreeding is funny, but because Santa needs more damn elves! And because inbreeding is funny.
Because “Santa’s workshop but everything is edgy and dark” is boring unless there’s some kinda reason for it. She’s right it’s the creativity that makes it!
I'll always love A Very Special Family Guy Freakin' Christmas

A freaking family guy christmas is the best, compact, funny on almost every minute, that peak character breaking moment of Lois and both the speeches from Peter and Stewie told a modern satirical yet heartwarming take on the christmas season
Plus it's 3 kings joke was so good the Hulu special ripped it off twice and nothing can top "Merry Christmas to all and to all shut the hell up" lol
8:30 This was an indtance of the dark comedy working every step for me, funniest part of the episode
A unique idea perhaps for a Valentine's Day video. Dive into the major characters of family guy and learn how many times a character got married, how many times the marriages ended and how many times a character cheated on their wife/girlfriend
The first Family Guy Christmas episode is one of my all time faves.
you cannot beat Robbie the Reindeer Hooves of Fire when it comes to Christmas Specials
These elves traumatized me at 10 (my dad loved watching FG and they had no problem letting me join past like 8 I think 😅 they just didn’t explain the jokes I didn’t get lol) but contrary to many media who weirded me out, this episode was so good I kept watching it and the elves just became ok to me in the end 😂 also I know you literally showed him say (Seth came out of my penis) but as a dummy I never clocked this really was really Seth’s dad before 😂
You should do one for American dad next
“never seen it depicted like this before”
i believe this was an “homage” to Futurama’s Neptunian workshop which was very similar but with a psychopathic Santa instead of a sympathetic one
Next Christmas episode Peter should try and save Christmas but ends up being so bad he destroys it
I love your videos. Also buzzinga
I’ve always wondered if Family Guy’s santa is the same as American Dad’s? and personally i just like thinking it is
I hope someday you could do a ranking of Bob Burgers Christmas episodes.
That’s all I really want for Christmas this year!
Thanks
Thank you so much for the super chat. Very generous 😊
You know it's a rough episode when it only gets 2 minutes of screen time.
Are you doing an American dad Christmas special?
Christmas 2025
Christmas with Kevin and Susie
If I'm not mistaken Kevin James has a sitcom on Netflix where he runs a garage or something, I think anyways.
These are my comfort videos fr
Them trying to be Santa is the greatest thing .... The road to hell is paved with good intentions
Road to the North Pole is amazing 👏 and I love the opening song 🎵 All I want for Christmas 🎄 I uploaded it to my mp3 player and played it constantly 😅😂
Are the books only avaliable in english?
I have a friend who loves the simpsons and I got her at secret santa and I would like to buy her one of them as a secret santa.
She does not speak english, only portuguese and spanish
Man, the difference in time dedicated to each episode was HUGE
Some guy shared the first chrismas episode on youtube without zoom and cuts I was very fortune because it was brought down the next day . The episode was amazing very wholesome.
for me there Best Family Guy Christmas episode is Road To The North Pole it's the definition of a Christmas Special to re-watch during the holiday Season from the Road to Adventure of Brain and Steiwe to the music to how Dark the North Pole to the Christmas Time is Killing Us to Brain spreading the message to Help Santa by just having one present a year when in reality we need more then one present but it's what I consider a Great Family Guy Christmas episode
the one to avoid re-watching during the holiday season is Christmas is Coming where Meg has a sexual fantasy of Santa Claus most of there jokes were NOT Funny most and all of it just Because Meg had a fantasy of Santa Claus when it was a tennis player which no one even knows who it was and Not even worth looking it up because it just Doesn't put you in the Christmas Spirit
and The Return of The King of Queens was just Meh and barley felt like a Christmas episode it felt like your typical Family Guy episode with Kevin James shoehorned into it with a Christmas theme thrown into it and None of there Jokes where NOT All That Funny it was precipitable as your typical sitcom and it was a Bore to sit through so yeah The Return of The King of Queens is another must skip for the holiday season those are my thoughts on The Best and the WORST of Family Guy Christmas episodes
Hearing Seth’s actual dad saying “Seth came out of my penis” will never not be funny to me 😂
foe me Road To The North Pole is the Best Christmas Episode that truly felt like an hour long Special that actually felt like a Road to episode with a Stewie and Brain tried and Failed to help Santa but they've managed to help Santa at the end
tbh the only thing i hated about the most recent special is that stewie didn't say over in the walkie talkie joke like did they forget the other walkie talkie joke???
Damn Lydia, a video every day?
Hey Lydster, how are you doing? Need to rewatch Road To The North Pole, probably before my birthday on the 23rd. Lucky fella, I am.
My favourite Family Guy Christmas special is the first one, maybe through nostalgia because it was one of the first FG episodes I watched, along with the Y2K episode Da Boom. Interesting fact: Da Boom is inexplicably rated PG over here, for obvious reasons every single other episode is rated at least 12. The difference between the UK and US age ratings is very funny to me. For example, Gremlins, Beetlejuice and Poltergeist are all rated 15 here, and PG over there. The aforementioned Ghost With The Most is actually on BBC2 this Xmas Eve, because I'm sure that when you think Christmas, you think of a creepy old guy attempting to marry a 15 year old too... right? The Beeb are following Beej with The Rocky Horror Picture Show, so it seems that it's Christmas time, but there might actually be need to be afraid after all. See what I did there? You can steal that one if you like. Nah, maybe not then. I could never be a comedy writer. 🙂
Favourite Christmas special ever is a tough one. I would say Only Fools And Horses: The Jolly Boys Outing. I know it's set in August but it was first shown on Christmas Day so I'm kind of cheating. If it has to be SET at Christmas then I'm going for Holy, an episode of the early 90s sitcom Bottom, which I think is hilarious because I am extremely immature. 😆
In your last Simpsons video when you spoke about people scheming to get into first class, it reminded me of an episode of Seinfeld, imaginatively titled The Airport. The Airport starts with Seinfeld and his friend Elaine getting on a plane where Seinfeld immediately steals the first class seat so he can sit next to a model. Elaine then spends the rest of the episode attempting, and failing, to get into first class. The airport end up deliberately losing her luggage because she keeps pissing the flight attendants off. I bet you wish you could do that to some of your passengers!
I do wonder how accurate the episode is, so maybe you could check it out and let me know? I'm curious and would really appreciate it. The only thing I think sounds a bit strange is that the episode mentions that someone new to the flight attendant job might not get the uniform on day one so might have to start work in their everyday clothes. It must be true but I find it bizarre. To be clear, I'm not mocking you, the following dialoge is in the episode:
"Sir, you're making a scene, sit down!"
"Who the hell are you?"
"I'm the flight attendant."
"Oh yeah, well, I'm the pilot, alright?"
While I'm still on this video, and before my dumb arse forgets, Merry Christmas Lyds. 😊🎄
Hey Jack 👋
Yeah UK age restrictions have always been odd, very strict in some areas, but then randomly lenient on some other movies. I remeber watching a documentary a while ago about the video nasties.
Love Only Fools and Horses Christmas specials. James' favourite is the Vicker of Dibleys ones.
I'll have to check that out. I know an airline will definitely not let you wear your civilian clothes. They were extremely strict with uniforms.
Merry Christmas 😊🎄
I really would like a Christmas episode about Kevin and his sister Susie.
Road to the north pole will forever be a top tier adult cartoon episode/special. I don't think I've ever seen a christmas episode of anything else that has left as much of an impression on me as this one. Its a true shame the state that family guy is in currently.
I love the first special from season 3. I wish kiss saves Santa Claus was a real tv movie
