No wonder Colin couldn't tell me what kind of animation they were using for the special...
Tara: That was funny if you've studied Taglarin mystic rites and... are a total dork... Riley: Then how come Xander didn't laugh?

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

"We are the Goon Squad and we're coming to town...Beep! Beep!" - David Bowie, "Fashion"
While that made me laugh a lot, it also gave me allergies. Damn fine fun episode. And after getting so used to hearing him as that asshole Cyril on Archer, I'd completely forgotten Chris Parnell as Santa on Eureka.

'we all walk this earth feeling we are frauds. The trick is to be grateful and hope the caper doesn't end any time soon"
They were using ALL the animations!
That was just a heart-felt Xmas present for the fans. I know it hasn't aired yet for some folks, so I won't say more just now, but you're in for a treat.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration
I had technical difficulties (sound and video not syncing) through most of Eureka and the first few minutes of W13, so I couldn't quite follow the story, but from what I could see Eureka was really cute. I'll have to catch a later airing.

"We are the Goon Squad and we're coming to town...Beep! Beep!" - David Bowie, "Fashion"
I love when they went through channel changer mode and we got the various animation versions (Charlie Brown, South Park, etc.). I didn't delete the episode, as this is one I'll need to watch again just for all the riffs. Also, pullstring Henry was hysterical. Even more than bobblehead Fargo.

And I'm glad that Jack's truck finally got to voice his discontent with his fate(s).

"Carl", please.
Loved Jo and the bluebirds, and her concern for them after they'd gone. Just lovely.
Have I mentioned the little girl they got for Jenna was about the cutest ever? And very emotive.
Just loved how the whole cast had parts to play and the various iterations they went through.
I may never need to watch another Christmas episode of another show, ever.
