References/Trivia


Trivia

  • In Tahiti, there is a girl resembling Lisa Jr. from Missionary: Impossible.
  • The voice of Santa Claus in Grampa's story greatly resembles the voice of Robot Santa from Matt Groening's other animated show Futurama.
  • This marks the 365th episode, making it able for a different episode to air every day of the year (except in leap years).
  • When we see Reverend Lovejoy talk about "so many plastic Christmases ruined", one of the figures lying on the table is Mr. Burns.
  • This is one of the few episodes where there are three mini-stories, the most common ones being the "Treehouse of Horror" episodes.
  • The fourth episode of The Simpsons to date to air with a parental advisory warning before the episode in Australia for "adult themes". (Originally scheduled to air May 9th 2006 on Network Ten, but was pre-empted and replaced with "How I Spent My Strummer Vacation")

Cultural References

  • Homer amuses Bart with Three Stooges gags.
  • Homer ends his Christmas sermon with a terrible imitation of Paul Harvey.
  • Krusty's sidekick in 1964 bears a striking resemblance to Woody Allen, though his hairdo is very much like Sideshow Mel's.
