However, when they get there, they find out that Santa is living a horrible life. In another вЂњRoad toвЂќ episode, Stewie and Brian travel to the North Pole to find Santa Claus. Lois tends to have a tough time during the holidays but this episode features her at her absolute breaking point.

This includes her pushing George Bailey from ItвЂ™s A Wonderful Lifeoff a bridge and lighting Frosty the Snowman on fire. However, the highlight of the episode is when Lois goes on a rampage after everything goes horribly wrong. There is even a fake special within this special where the band Kiss saves Santa from dinosaurs. This episode has many clever ideas, especially with Stewie, as itвЂ™s interesting to see a childвЂ™s perspective where they think Santa is actually evil instead of jolly and kind. Lois is trying to get everything ready, Peter is out getting drunk, and Stewie becomes frightened by the idea that Santa is always watching. вЂњA Very Special Family Guy FreakinвЂ™ ChristmasвЂќ simply follows the Griffin family as they try to have the best Christmas possible. The animation isnвЂ™t as refined yet but the jokes are still there. This first Christmas special from Family Guy comes from Season 3. RELATED: Not Just 'Rudolph' - Every Rankin/Bass Stop Motion Christmas Special, Ranked вЂњHow the Griffin Stole ChristmasвЂќ can be mean-spirited at times but it still ends happily and features plenty of laughs, like the scene where the whole family goes sledding and gets horribly injured. It does have a happy ending as Stewie atones for this and everyone hopefully has a good holiday. Stewie becomes a bit too engrossed in one company and ends up getting people fired.

Meanwhile, Brian and Stewie begin crashing office Christmas parties to eat food and meet women.

Many of the ways Peter uses his newfound power are odd, but then again so is Peter. However, when the real Santa threatens him, the two go after each other and, of course, the real Santa ends up victorious. Peter fills in for a mall Santa and becomes drunk with power as he discovers the many benefits of pretending to be Santa Claus himself. Peter often figures out a way to manipulate others and here he does it by using their love of Christmas against them.
