#2 S03E10 – Amends – Buffy the Vampire Slayer
Season 3, Episode 10 of Buffy the Vampire Slayer, “Amends,” was a deeply emotional Christmas episode that dove into Buffy and Angel’s difficult relationship within the aftermath of his soul being restored. Whereas the remainder of the gang ready for Christmas, Buffy was looking for out what was haunting Angel, inflicting him to imagine he can be higher off useless. Since having his soul restored, Buffy had been struggling to grasp her place in Angel’s life, whereas Angel was consumed with guilt over every little thing he did as Angelus—together with the homicide of Jenny Calendar. The strain between them got here to a head on a hill, the place Angel was prepared to surrender on himself, however Buffy refused to let him go. She turned his champion but once more, pouring her coronary heart out and serving to him see that he was value saving, despite the fact that he didn’t imagine it himself.
Their uncooked change, particularly Angel’s tearful confession that a part of him needed to lose himself in her regardless of the associated fee, hit followers proper within the feels. His line, “I need to take consolation in you, and I do know it can value me my soul, and part of me doesn’t care,” was devastatingly weak, exhibiting simply how a lot he cherished her but in addition how damaged he felt. Buffy’s emotional plea—“What about me? I like you a lot… I killed you, and it didn’t assist. I do know every little thing that you just did since you did it to me, and I want that I wanted you useless, however I don’t. I can’t.”—was completely gut-wrenching and a defining second for his or her relationship.
Simply when it appeared all hope was misplaced and Angel was able to succumb to the sunshine, the primary snowfall Sunnydale had ever seen prevented the dawn, sparing Angel’s life and igniting him with hope. It was a lovely, virtually magical metaphor for his or her journey collectively: battered by darkness however nonetheless discovering a solution to stand facet by facet. As glimpses of the remainder of the gang celebrating Christmas crammed the display screen, the ultimate scene was nothing wanting perfection. Buffy and Angel strolling hand in hand by means of the snow, within the mild of day. It felt like a uncommon second of peace and redemption for them each—a robust reminder that even of their darkest moments, they have been stronger collectively.

#3 S02E10 – Merry Ex-Mas – 911
After I consider Christmas episodes, 9-1-1’s Merry Ex-Mas immediately involves thoughts. Vacation themed episodes don’t usually stick with me, however this one has for therefore many causes. I’ll listing them under:
Buck and Eddie take Christopher to see Santa Claus
This scene was the rationale I began watching the present. With out figuring out something in regards to the present, I assumed Buck was a homosexual man pining for a straight man. I now perceive that I used to be utterly off with that assumption (…effectively, was I?) and that there may very well be loads of causes Buck didn’t right that lady when she stated he and Eddie have “an lovely son” proper? Anyhow, it was additionally nice to see Buck assist Eddie kind by means of his reservations by permitting Shannon, Eddie’s estranged spouse, again into Christopher’s life.
Athena and Bobby Take Their Relationship to the Subsequent Stage
Athena asks Bobby to maneuver in together with her and Bobby will get a little bit of chilly toes. He misplaced his total household in a fireplace that he nonetheless feels responsible for inflicting, so it’s truthful to grasp why he’s uncertain of this. Transferring in with Athena means gaining an instantaneous household, which everyone knows he loves, however you possibly can nonetheless see him battling that feeling of whether or not or not he deserved this happiness. I’m glad that he knew he did and by the tip of the episode [SPOILER ALERT] he proposes to Athena! She after all says sure – it was a lovely second.
Maddie and Her Hatred for Christmas
Once we’re launched to Maddie this season, we study that she’s on the run from her abusive husband. When Buck and Chimney convey over a Christmas tree and decorations for her (a means for Chimney to apologize – nevertheless, I like that that is additionally a Madney Begins, however I digress) her response to it was a bit excessive to me, however after we study why she doesn’t like Christmas then all of it begins to make sense. Up till this episode, we had no thought what Doug, her abusive husband, appeared like (we knew his voice from a threatening cellphone name to Maddie) however after we noticed how Maddie’s final Christmas went, her response was legitimate. Not solely that, we lastly noticed Doug and – the shock on my face at this reveal! It was the person who was getting near Chimney and known as himself Jason.
This episode was a rollercoaster of feelings, which is precisely how holidays really feel to me. Not solely that, with this episode particularly, it was the beginning of one among my favourite episodes of this collection (S2E13 “Struggle or Flight) so it can at all times be a memorable one.

#4 S05E10 – Scrooge – Martin
One in all TV’s most memorable Christmas episodes for me is from Martin Season 5, Episode 10, “Scrooge.” stands out as one among TV’s most memorable Christmas episodes due to its message of generosity, reflection, and humility.
This episode is a heartfelt retelling of A Christmas Carol, the place Martin learns precious classes in regards to the true spirit of the season whereas he confronts his personal egocentric tendencies. This episode reminds viewers of the significance of cherishing what we now have, staying grounded, and serving to others, even when life is sweet. It illustrates how our experiences can form us into extra giving and empathetic people, making this episode an ideal instance of how vacation specials are entertaining whereas delivering important life classes that resonate with audiences ceaselessly.

#5 S02E06 – Fishes – The Bear
After I completed episode S02E06 ‘Fishes’ of The Bear I needed to take a minute to take a breather. What a rollercoaster of an episode.
Should you suppose your loved ones is dysfunctional, suppose once more, this household Christmas dinner takes dysfunctional to an entire different stage.
The episode is a flashback from about 5 years in the past. Carmy returns from Copenhagen to spend Christmas along with his household. Current on the Berzatto family are Carmy’s mom Donna (performed by the long-lasting Jamie Lee Curtis), his siblings Michael and Natalie, his cousin Michelle and her boyfriend Stevie, Richie and his pregnant spouse Tiffany, the Fak brothers Neil and Theodore, Uncle Cicero, and Donna’s on-and-off boyfriend Lee. Donna (a temperamental alcoholic) drunkenly prepares a meal primarily based on the Feast of the Seven Fishes. Whereas it’s apparent that Donna is out of her depth cooking the feast by herself, she harshly rebuffs anybody who volunteers to assist. Because the episode progresses, Donna turns into increasingly chaotic and erratic. The dialog on the dinner desk can be beginning to get extra poisonous, particularly between Lee and Michael, the latter even begins throwing forks throughout the desk.
Donna who has joined the desk is sort of a volcano that’s about to erupt. Which in the long run she does solely as a result of Natalie asks her if she’s okay. Which Carmy and Michal warned Natalie to not ask. Donna loses it, leaves the room solely to crash her automotive into the lounge as Carmy and Natalie stare at one another in shock.
