The holidays are well and truly upon us, folks.
There is no escape.
All of entertainment is feeling festive.
Stockings have been hung with care on fake fireplaces across TV land.
Jimmy Fallon even made an advent calendar.
Oddly, Fallon is the only host who has included gift-giving in their holiday content.
And only one audience member per show gets anything.
Remember wheneveryone got Alexas, Jimmy?
Oooh, or Marshalls.
Stephen Colbert also got the audience involved in his one concession to holiday spirit.
Colbert invited an audience member to sit in the guest spot and give him holiday greeting cards.
This could have been Colbert with a celebrity.
Audience participation is upsetting and should be kept to a minimum.
Also: One desk piece about greeting cards does not a holiday make, Stephen.
Colbert was practically Scrooge-ian in his refusal to acknowledge Christmas.
We get it politics!
The only holiday Colbert wanted to recognize was Michael Cohens sentencing.
It makes complete sense that No.
1 family man Seth Meyers goes apeshit for Christmas.
He loves holidays you celebrate with family.
But Nicole Byer reminded us all of the darker side to Christmas commercialism.
Below theMiracle on 34th Street,theres jail.
Byer was caught shoplifting back in the day and was treated to Macys jail then real jail.
Honestly, theres a lot of darkness in Christmas.
A literal lack of sunlight, for one thing.
Elf on a Shelf for another.
This was the year everyone dunked on that nasty little snitch.
Meyers burned him, andJimmy Kimmel called him a narc.
Elf on a Shelf is the weirdestnewChristmas thing, aside from Hallmark movies.
And, of course, the eternal Baby, Its Cold Outside debate.
Canada says its lyrics are coercive, William Shatner says its censorship.
Busy Philipps says its hardly the only problematic Christmas song.
Twelve Days of Christmas is clearly about human trafficking, she said.
Your true love just, like,gaveyou ten lords a-leaping and nine ladies dancing?
Are you paying them to keep dancing?
This is the nightmare of gender.
She doesnt mean the no shes saying, but hed disregard it even if it were serious.
Truly, the only pure Christmas duet is the one between Bing Crosby and David Bowie.
Its a stilted yet adorable classic.
Its a fave for comedic duos:The Venture Bros.covered it, as didWill Ferrell and John C. Reilly.
But I hope he is feeling the holiday spirit and the Google search bump this clip gave him.
Google search bump us, everyone.
