Overall Great DVD. I'm going To Rate The Episodes.

Christmas Who? 5/5: The Only Patchy Episode I give over 3/5. the cartoon was really good, and unlike in other Patchy Specials, they didn't overkill Patchy.

Procrastination 4/5: Very Funny, but it needed more Patrick.

The Snowball effect 5/5: I funny episode about the good old snowball wars.

Survival Of The Idiots 5/5: Very Funny

Mermaid Man and Barnacle Boy IV 5/5: I can't remember if this is the one when Spongebob gets Mermaidman's Utility Belt and shrinks everyone or when Barnacle Boy becomes evil? Who cares. They were both 5 star.

Chocolate With Nuts 5/5: Tied With Opposite Day for my favorite episode.

As Seen On TV 5/5: Funny and likeable with a very original plot.

Pizza Delivery 5/5: Probably Spongebobs most quoted episode along with Bubblestand (The Krusty Krab Pizza)

Squeaky Boots 5/5: Alot of people don't like this episode. I think it's very funny.

I recommend this DVD for any Spongebob fan.

Spongebob Squarepants Christmas lives up to the lofty standards that this show has set for itself. Patchy the pirate introduces the first double length short "Christmas Who?" which is hilarious. The basic premise is that Spongebob and the rest of Bikini Bottom is unaware of the holiday until Sandy clues Spongebob in. Spongebob then spreads holiday joy by encouraging everyone to write a letter to Santa and wait for his impending arrival. Squidward, as always, is skeptical but winds up saving the day in the end. Overall, this is one of Squidward's funniest shorts, he has some classic one-liners such as "Oh, I see a perfect photo-op" or "Yep, I'm insane". You just cannot find a consistently funnier show than this and Spongebob Christmas lives up to the hype. Highly Recommended.

The second Holiday to be represented in the collection of "themed" Spongebob DVDs, "Christmas", includes another 10 episodes (one is double the length) of pure aquatic fun! You may ask why I gave it three stars then? Only because there is a better way to obtain Spongebob on DVD and in his entirety - Season Sets! As a stand alone DVD, you can't say much bad about any of the compilation discs of Spongebob, but the fact that the complete season sets are being released makes them less special than they used to be, unecessary really. "Christmas", like the previous "Halloween" collection includes only one episode actually set on the holiday, in this case the double length "Christmas Who?" where Santa decides not to show on Christmas in Bikini Bottom. The only other two even closely related are "Snowball Effect" and "Survival of the Idiots" because of snow basically. It doesn't really matter because all the episodes are great. Watch as Spongebob sells candy bars with Patrick, gets lost with Squidward, and annoys everyone (more than usual!) with a pair of very squeaky boots! Like I said the content is first rate and the casual fan won't be disappointed, but if you're feeling extra wiggly and I know you are, go get the Season sets! That way you get all the Spongebob you can handle!

Ok, this DVD only has 4 X-mas related esp, but it's still well worth it. Only one actually is about X-mas, but the others are delightful tales of spongebob and Patrick experiencing snow. This DVD also comes in 2 other languages, and it's very interesting to see spongebob speak in both Spanish and Portuguese...lol. I suppose you can also deem this special feature educational, perhaps watching children might learn some new words in a foreign language. This DVD also included bonus esp that can be accessed, when you go to scene selection. These esp include "Chocolate with nuts" which is hilarious, "As seen on TV" which gives you insight into spongebob's obliviousness, and many more including the remake of a classic horror tale in squeaky boots! Definitely a must buy for any true spongebob fan.

Chocolate with nuts has to be the best Spongebob episode ever! Those two old ladies that they sell the candy bars too are hilarious!

In "Christmas Who?" Spongebob again tries to do something for someone else just to bring a little joy. we never get tired of Spongebob at our house and we own all the DVD's and watch them over and over. This is one of the best ones yet.

This Christmas episode is truly my favorite throughout all of the Spongebob seasons. I was especially suprised when they put "Chocolate with Nuts" on this set. That is my second favorite episode. Overall this is a five star set.

The VHS is great. My grandson loves it. The transaction went well, I received the video as described in a very timely manner. I am pleased. Thank you.

The series is a great christmas gift because it is all holiday episodes, I bought this for my son and he will ne thrilled to watch these shows.

I am so in love with this Spongebob episode. Even before I had children of my own I would watch this with my neices and nephews. And now that I have children, we look forward to it every Christmas. We love it so much I've had to replace the dvd atleast twice;because we watched it so much! Anyone who loves Spongebob will love this!
