Notes

add »
Christmas bells are added to the opening titles as well as horns; the cast names are in red (instead of the usual yellow) with snow frosting the tops of the letters and holly leaves on the sides. (edit)
Jackie, being the youngest of the gang, is still in high school. This would mark the last episode where the gang visits the school (now that they've graduated). (edit)

(Kelso walks into the library)

Donna: What do you think you're doing? Eric you never showed up, I was worried about you.
Eric: Well I'm sorry, I guess I lost track of time, maybe it's because I am a God to these people! Donna, they like this shirt. This is a horrible shirt!
Donna: I gave you that shirt.
Eric: I know, I love this shirt! (edit)
Jackie: Okay, here comes Julie, the head cheerleader. Now, Steven, make me look good.
Julie: Hello, Jackie.
Jackie: Hello, Julie. This is my boyfriend, Steven J. Hyde the third.
Hyde: First two are in jail. (edit)
Red: This mall is only big enough for one Santa, Bob!
Bob: Tell you what, you name five reindeer and I'll step down.

"Series classic"
I sometimes expect when christmas shows air that shows just pull out something to make a christmas episode. Well not this one I feel while it may have been an easy written story it was hillarious from start to finish. Easily the best holiday episode.
