Storyline
Did you know
- TriviaLeonard recounts his early Christmas experiences where he had to leave Santa Claus a research paper, which would then be graded. This is consistent with his account in The Maternal Congruence (2009), where during Christmas, everybody had to write research papers on the anthropological and psychological implications on human society, after which they broke off into focus groups and critiqued each other.
- GoofsWhen Sheldon's character casts a paralysis spell on Leonard and Stuart's characters during the Dungeons & Dragons game, he immediately continues describing what his character does afterward, with the assumption that the spell worked. In the game, spells can fail completely, and can also merely fail to affect some of the targets. The dungeon master--in this case Leonard--must roll dice to determine the outcome of the spell, which he does not do. When Howard is the dungeon master in The Love Spell Potential (2013), he performs the rolls for the titular spell.

Featured review
Not my favorite holiday based episode of BBT
I Have Reviewed OVER 500 "Christmas Films and Specials". Please BEWARE Of films and specials with just one review! For instance When "It's a POSITIVE" chances are that the reviewer was involved with the production. "If its Negative" then they may have a grudge against the film for whatever reason. I am fare about these films.
This season 6 episode was lacking the "Christmas Spirit". I honestly think they just "Added" the Christmas element because they needed a holiday based episode.
In this episode the most boring part is the guys play "Dungeon's and Dragons". The funniest part was Raj and the girls.
Even if this wasn't a holiday episode I would have still not have given it a higher rating. Even with "Santa Claus" being an important part of the frame work of this episode this episode falls flat.
