When he sees he has done, he nonchalantly says, "I win."

Episodes:

RapsittieStreetKidsBelieveinSantaThumbnail

Critic Freakout:

The Critic, Malcolm, and Tamara are flying through space in their spaceship to find another dimension to prove the Critic's love of Christmas. They head to Christmassia to find the last of the Christmassians, which happens to be the Christmassian Queen. The Queen breathes Christmas presents on them, which are yuletide chainsaws. Tamara and Malcolm shoots the queen, but it shoots back with wrapped bullets. Critic bravely attacks the queen with his sword and finishes by delivering his freakout while slashing the queen a bunch of times. He tears apart the queen's body and the three whale on its downed body with their weapons. They then solemnly head back to their ship and agree to stop with the madness as they return home to start the review. The Critic also notes that the queen was probably pregnant.

Trivia

  • You're a Rotten Dirty Bastard was the only Christmas special where NC didn't review any type of movie, but just did a parody.
  • The review of Santa Claus: The Movie was still considered as a Christmas review, even though it was released in January.
  • Child's Play is the only Horror film that was reviewed during christmas, since Phelous considered many parts of the movie to be centered around Christmas.
  • Originally, Critic and Phelous were going to review Silent Night, Deadly Night but didn't because Doug hadn't seen the movie, and they thought it would be too grim for a christmas review, so it was replaced with Child's Play.
  • 2008 and 2010 were the only years where the whole month was not dedicated to Christmas reviews.
