SpongeBob learns what Christmas is all about, and being SpongeBob, he can't keep it to himself. He sets out to make everyone in Bikini Bottom as excited as he is, and the whole under-the-sea neighbourhood ends up with a bit of festive fizz. This was the show's first double-length episode, and it also brings in Patchy the Pirate and his parrot Potty for the first time. It's silly, sunny and sincerely sweet, the sort of thing the kids can watch on Boxing Day morning while the adults are still in their dressing gowns, picking at leftover sprouts and pretending not to laugh.
