Trivia

 * The show was done in a parody style that of classic Rankin Bass Christmas films:
 * There are numerous vulgar/sexual jokes scenes made throughout the series, which contradicts the happy and family-friendly nature of the films.
 * The characters could also be parodies of popular figures in Christmas culture, such as with Junior being a vulgar version of Rudolph the Red-Nose Reindeer, and Santa Claus himself.
