It's The Holidays: Comedy Edition

There are always bizarre twists to classic holidays meant as humor, satire, or just to be odd for the sake of being odd.

A classic for the modern generation would have to be George's father's own interpretation of a winter holiday - Festivus. In my opinion, the only redeeming facet of the entire Sienfeld series, save the Soup Nazi.



Adam Sandler's original Hanukkah song is now a staple of the holiday season across the US. While the second was equally as funny, the third fell rather flat but is still far better than anything Burl Ives or Perry Como recorded.



But the penultimate Christmas song, and one of the two signifiers that people still recognize true comedic holiday masterpieces is if this gets played on modern commercial radio, is Bob and Doug McKenzie's version of the 12 Days Of Christmas



What are some of your favorite comedic holiday moments?
