The lighting apparatus used in Miss Yvonne's hair actually shorted and smoked during production and the crew had to intervene to remove the power pack from under her wardrobe and remove the wig which housed the lighting.
If you need more time to wrap your gifts or just relax, our second holiday theme today - sometimes TV is your only friend, so why not have a marathon of Christmas themed episodes.
Merry Christmas, Mr Bean Mr Bean -
The turkey in the chaotic scene was not a real one, but a prop, and was much heavier than what an actual turkey of similar size would have weighed.
Christmas and the Hard Luck Kid II The Mary Tyler Moore Show-
James Brooks, who wrote this episode, also wrote Christmas and the Hard Luck Kid, an episode of That Girl. There is no apparent connection between the two, other than Brooks.
A Very Pink Christmas The Pink Panther
Surprisingly, for an animated special, all the characters are silent
The Big Little Jesus Dragnet
This is the only Dragnet episode based on a case from outside Los Angeles. The incident took place in San Fransisco.
Jack Does Christmas Shopping The Jack Benny Show
The overwrought salesman Jack torments in this episode is played by Mel Blanc, who played the same role in a series of radio episodes that aired every Christmas. Over the years, Jack gave the same clerk a hard time buying shoelaces, golf tees, dates, a gopher trap, cuff links and a set of paints for Don Wilson.
Not 1 but 2 David Letterman Christmas specials
Remember Bunkies, the holidays can be a little rough. If you find yourself alone, you always have your friends at ACME.
Demand Euphoria!
