First of all, Chris, thank you for posting this! I've been quoting a line from this for years, that none of my friends get, and I was able to show the entire thing to my boyfriend tonight because of your efforts. Thanks also for putting the videos in natural break points! Hurrah!

I believe it also aired again in 2003.

@AnimeCanuck Aw, thanks for saying so! Glad that people are getting to enjoy this.

@chrisleblanc79 Nah, thank you! Seriously... if CBC were to put this out on DVD, I'd be buying it. It goes well with my Colbert's "The Best Gift of All". XD

@AnimeCanuck You've caused me to geek out imagining a commentary track for this whole special, Dave all making fun of the whole thing. That would become my favourite Christmas Special - a commentary track :)

"And Happy Hanukkah!"

i don't understand why the cbc will play and replay the same christmas movies that every other channel plays every year and not this . . . been waiting for this on tv or dvd for so long. thank you chrisleblanc79

@chrisleblanc79 Man, that's such a sweet idea! I love this Christmas special, and think it's a total shame that the CBC only aired it 2 years in a row. Thanks again for keeping it online! You rock! ^_^

I like it. (of course Dave would have to try pretty hard to lose me) It's lame, but IT'S A CHRISTMAS SPECIAL!!! How many Christmas Specials you know that are just chock fill of brilliant, scathing comedy?

ahhh... this is so good I can't believe the kids ever got on the air in the first place... thank god for CANADA because you guys obviously have a brain, eh? your cousins in the states need everything SPELLED OUT for them - and if you don't believe me just watch a preview to a movie or watch family guy. I LOVE KITH
