This episode is an absolute masterpiece. Some of the funniest writing in the entire show, and it makes me wish they did more one hour episodes. There's so much breathing room for longer timed jokes.

[@iGaveLiaHIV]

favorite episode

[@chaost4544]

The couch birthing Frank is one of the funniest things ever filmed.

[@Timeisaflat_O]

Yeah, seriously. I had to pause the DVD the first time I watched that scene because I couldn't move past it.

[@seanconnell3414]

The only one funnier is the Ace Ventura scene 😂

[@og_efan0279]

The mall santa scene is my favourite in the entire series

[@TheBoondocksaint117]

"HE'S THE MAN IN THE COUCH!!" One of my favorite Dennis deliveries in the whole show.

[@loveoffilm4327]

They missed the most epic cameo, Christopher Lloyd was one of the santas 😂 Calvin noticed it too but was like na that can't be...

[@brianburkhardt3692]

“I recognize those eyes,” I wonder if he did realize and then just forgot to write it down.

[@tananatana4011]

The moment Frank says "sow me into the couch" is instant classic lol. I love how everyone immediately knew what was going on, but didn't want to say it

[@mastaovdafist3551]

Some fun behind the scenes were just recently revealed on this episode. According to Glenn Howerton, the man he's talking to at 16:23, kept telling Glenn to say his scripted lines and DON'T improvise, even to the point of getting annoyed. Imagine being one of the main creators/writer of your own show and then having an extra tell you what to do like they're in charge of things!! Also, the person right behind that extra is comedian Rick Glassman!

[@TheJoshestWhite]

That was a great TYSO episode

[@SinematicClips]

no one else could've pulled off the mall scene as perfectly as charlie day

[@jacobhogan3208]

"Oh that's probably the next family coming in to get their presents" I hate that as a kid I would've believed that lmao.

[@thebrokenpuppet2714]

Calvin’s laugh at Frank in the couch gives me life

[@christianwise637]

I think that's the most he's laughed at this show, unless I'm mistaken

[@TheProtosnipe]

@@christianwise637 Dee getting hit with the chair in the wrestling episode was pretty close

[@Blackblood41908]

Been waiting MONTHS for this episode. Definitely my favorite episode of the show

[@alexthrailkill]

12:56 I heard Calvin say “I know those eyes…” THAT WAS MFIN CHRISTOPHER LLOYD!!!

[@thatoneguy_889]

Rob McElhenney was asked if there was anything they came up with for Frank that Danny DeVito said no to because it went over the line. He said no, and to give an idea of how far off that line is, coming out of the couch naked was Danny's idea.

[@dannydashtv9418]

Correct me if I’m wrong but this was supposed to be part of season 5 but it was released with season 6. Hence Macs moms house not being burned yet. Edit: thanks Eric☺️ lol

[@dannydashtv9418]

It really threw me off the first time I watched it and noticed the small timeline errors 😂

[@og_efan0279]

​@dannydashtv9418 first time seeing it I was confused too

[@yungjefferyLIVE]

was released on dvd alongside season 5 but aired with season 6 i think

[@Stylz.]

@@dannydashtv9418yeah I remember watching it for the first time expecting to see Mac’s mom or Uncle Jack there😂

[@DanilegoPlays]

Maybe they couldn't finish it in time for Christmas and ended up releasing it next year's Christmas haha

[@edwardosquidawardo]

This was my first Always Sunny episode I ever watched. I laughed so hard I passed out. Frank and the couch lives in my brain rent free…

[@mirkecWii]

16:03 New Calvin laugh unlocked

[@gingerwolverine37]

You guys literally had me in tears when Charlie flipped out on Santa lol 😂

[@misterkite]

Franks ex-business partner is The Big Lebowski.

[@digapygmy70]

Best Christmas episode ever! The scenes with Frank in the couch and Charlie attacking the mall Santa have made me CRY laughing, even on repeat viewings!

[@BeatleScorpion1]

Ah, one of my favorite episodes that transitions into one of my favorite seasons. Great reaction, guys, and I hope you enjoy Season 7! 😉

[@eliezeririzarry247]

Season 7 is so goat-ed meng, I can barely explain why but it feels like every episode is an instant classic

[@TheBlarggle]

Frank's Little Beauties and Frank's Pretty Woman are my absolute favorites. Both in S7. (Frank's Pretty Woman is the season premier too.)

[@NovusIgnis]

It's soc crazy to me that at the time it was going, season 7 wasn't as well liked. It just goes to show that people will hate anything just cause it's new. I remember the reddit posts and KZbin videos where people were talking about season 7 being weak and the show not being as good after season 4. Now it's regarded as one of the best seasons overall, if not the best

[@TheBlarggle]

@@NovusIgnis That's just not true.

[@NovusIgnis]

@@TheBlarggle It definitely was. It was quite a prevailing feeling at the time.

[@xcmvp2007]

Charlie’s realization that a train was run on his mom

[@TheeKorovaMilkBar]

16:02 That is the best Calvin laugh that I've heard so far.

[@kendric2000-q3d]

Charlie berating and biting Santa with the following mall pandemonium is one of the best parts of the series.

[@wavehellhole]

One of the wholesome endings, love this episode

[@MultiAlerocks]

Eric trying to hold his laughter the whole episode is priceless

[@angelagraves865]

Omg, Mac screaming when he sees the Cabbage Patch Doll was *SO* f-ing funny! 🤣🤣🤣

[@beyondviolet]

16:02 hardest I’ve seen Calvin laugh so far

[@mels607]

baby mac and charlie are SO CUTE ugh. poor kids, they deserved better. at least charlie's mom seems to actually love him, but she's still a terrible person who presumably let some really horrible stuff happen to charlie. and btw, where were charlie's sisters that we've only seen once and barely ever mentioned? my headcanon is the girls' father obtained custody of them, and since charlie never knew his, he got stuck with mom. or maybe they hadn't been born yet I guess.

[@PoseurGoth]

I always assumed that basically was retconned into Charlie being an only child.

[@alexthrailkill]

Showed this to my parents last Christmas. I didn’t get the laughs I was looking for😂

[@jabrak1]

This was the first episode of Always Sunny I watched. I had no idea what the show was, but I was in tears the entire time 😂😂😂

[@jubjub7101]

I love how Danny Devito jumped into this series feet first and will do anything to be absurd and hysterical.

[@FingerPuppetSarcasm]

My favorite scene is Charlie's mom dancing happily in the background while they stand there horrified.

[@DarthDooDoo69]

Just lost my kitty on Friday and you guys have made it a lot easier to cope. Thank you ❤

[@xcmvp2007]

I know it shouldn't, but this really put me in the mood for the holidays. Can't wait for Christmas!

[@chief8387]

the end of the episode with young mac and charlie makes me so emotional for some reason. They have such a wholesome friendship

[@sundesdaykimberry5660]

My favorite friendship in the show

[@stevemartegani]

I didn't know Pablo aka Master Cheeks aka Nick Sobotka was in this episode. So many great acting cameos in Sunny!

[@lennonmahoney7302]

Along with 'Mac and Charlie Die' this is absolutely my favourite, most rewatchable episodes

[@christianwise637]

This is, I think, one of the best sitcom Christmas episodes ever written, purely for the inclusion of Frank coming out of the couch and Charlie's rampage against the mall Santa. The latter was actually the first full scene of this show I ever watched (my younger sister showed it to me in an effort to get me into the show), and needless to say the chaos and carnage completely sold me on it. I love how most comedy Christmas specials will try to go for earnest heartfelt good feels, but instead this one just goes even further into insanity and anarchy, it's just delightful. Anyway, very excited to see the reactions to the next season; season 7 is honestly my favourite, every episode (with perhaps one exception) is a certifiable comedic masterpiece, and it even has my all-time favourite It's Always Sunny episode, so looking forward to that.

[@ridhirox]

02:52 Frank's 'Deeandra..you wantee?' as he offers the cheesy loops filled Sergio Georgini (nice The Office UK refernce) bag to Dee is comedy gold! While Dennis silently fumes behind the bar 🤣

[@bozuteru2160]

The ending makes me tear up every time. It's so silly but it really hits

[@ploptimusgrime332]

The actor who plays Eugene was also in the Big Lebowski. He played the rich Jeff Lebowski.

[@Cookieboy70]

16:00 Calvin being unable to control himself is so hilarious.

[@burgeeburger9328]

16:00 is an absolutely legendary reaction moment from the boys. Should go on a Blind Wave highlight reel

[@howell90002003]

This became a Thanksgiving tradition for me it kicks off my Christmas season.

[@CG-tr1dh]

The Midwesterners didn’t catch Mac’s perfect little dialect switch when he said Poconos.

[@haraldisdead]

Dude that kid looks JUST like little Mac.

[@MercenaryX84]

One of my personal favorite episodes. The Frank in the couch moment had to be improvised, there's no way they signed off on that in the writers room. All these guys had terrible childhoods. At least their comeuppance was Frank related, he ruined Dee and Dennis' Christmases and now it's spread to the rest of the gang

[@lashier13]

I don't agree with Frank about almost anything, but I have to admit I've said "When I'm dead, throw me in the trash," on multiple occasions.

[@grubinthe1st549]

Oh my god! The thumbnail brought me back! Such a incredible episode!

[@FoeJred]

@14:50 LMAO Eric getting adjusted and in his seat for the couch gag

[@roxtechs]

Love that they put Frank in the thumbnail to signify YeS ItS THAt EPISODE

[@DragonofMajima]

This episode is the chosen one!

[@christophermartin5980]

The guy at the toy store was Derek Waters who created Drunk History

[@KellyKels23]

Idk why it makes me laugh harder than any other moment in this episode, but the way charlie goes airborne when that snow machine turns on sends me into absolute fits every time😂🤣🤣

[@Bodyknock]

22:30 Whoo, this is the episode that broke Eric. 😂

[@ericsabourin7033]

16:00 I knew when they got to that part they were going to lose it. And I was not disappointed 😂😂

[@rd30000]

Frank explaining yhe bag he hangs down off the Lambo door made me laugh so fucking hard the first time i saw it😂

[@user-qc6wi3dw5x]

The “fake out” works great on marriage proposals as well👍

[@tjm6794]

Frank climbing out of the couch is top 10 funniest in tv ever.

[@jacobp8306]

I remember when it aired, I was thinking "Oh god damn it, not another Christmas Carol story, even if it's Sunny..." for like the first half, heh.

[@auntvesuvi3872]

Thanks to Eric, Calvin and Aaron! 🌞

[@Jeffersonia120]

That Elf in the stopmotion part was played by Tobi

[@kc1john]

The episode was produced during Season 5, which is why it’s not in HD. They held it back until the end of Season 6 to sell the DVDs.

[@Trainer_Red.....]

Here's something I didn't notice though and I've been watching this since highschool. Sounds like to me that Frank tried to kill his partner. Frank thought he was dead and his partner claimed he had a near death experienced. Frank tried to kill him. Lmao

[@JenLight]

I'm not sure I've ever heard Calvin laugh that hard before ever

[@nazimuddin5122]

I love Frank's 'yo."

[@MariothePlumber529]

one of the best of the entire show

[@TheYoungMuTe]

Might be my favorite episode. Watch it every year like clockwork

[@jonmercano1138]

Frank’s outline in the couch reminds me of Owen Wilson in Anaconda after he gets eaten 😂

[@OlPalJoe]

I feel like the newer seasons kinda forget that Charlie and Mac have a kind of sweet relationship

[@DUBSandChubb]

first thing I watch every Christmas morning🙌🏻

[@beardedjohnson5654]

Ricky is William Lewis in Law and Order SVU, he was a guard early on in Orange is the New Black

[@user-lv6rn9cf8m]

More importantly he's in The Big Lebowski

[@grassyhill5830]

Finally the best christmas episode ever

[@bountyofbeagles]

When i was lucky enough to see "Nightman Cometh" live on stage, they played a clip of this movie before the show. It was Charlie confronting Santa, and no context was given. It was amazing lol

[@liv8388]

I love watching Eric’s face in anticipation of the jokes 😂

[@pieperbe]

This is one of my favorite episodes.

[@texasrattlesnake31637]

Goodness, . . . This episode just went Ultra Instinct with the comedy! 😂😂😂 DDV and the Sunny Gang are freakin' Legends! Great reaction as usual Wave Crew! 16:02 - 17:15 - The greatest couch scene ever! 😂😅😂 That Charlie & Santa scene in the mall is absolute NUTS! 🤣🤣🤣

[@scottstone3359]

When u grow up a bit, u move on from throwing rocks at trains. Then you throw beer bottles. Much more satisfying.

[@PhaykZ]

That's an easter egg from the past. The actor that Mac stole the robot from was the dude that played Master Chief in the Halo tv series. And Halo Wars was shown right after in the mall

[@eliezeririzarry247]

So an Easter Egg that doesn't make sense until the reference actually happens in the future? Some sorta Easter Fetus? We may need Charlie on this one; egg law has to be closely associated with bird law.

[@Chubby_Runs]

This is still my number 1 episode of the entire series, it’s complete insanity, even more over the top than the rest of the show, and actually has an oddly sweet Christmas touch to it

[@serinx]

I dunno if you guys ever take notice of the directors names.. but this one is by Fred Savage [18 episodes] (who was Kevin Arnold / the main character from Wonder Years). You will also see Matt Shakman [43 episodes] pop up a lot (WandaVision and Fantastic Four). And Randall Einhorn [14 episodes] is quite the character / director.

[@loaf221]

I’ve been waiting so long for the reaction to this episode!! 😂😂😂

[@IceMetalPunk]

Oh. My. Fucking. God. I've been watching this show vicariously through you guys, and that mall Santa scene... I had to pause to catch my breath from the sheer disbelief 😂 I think my eyebrows are now permanently two inches higher on my face. Jfc, the writing on this show! 😂

[@itsyoboyb6314]

Pablo Schreiber was also one of the main characters in Season 2 of The Wire. The guy who played the toy store clerk is Derek Waters. He’s the main guy behind Drunk History.

[@seanstinchfield-mp2xm]

This Immediately became a Christmas tradition of mine! Every Christmas season I watch A Christmas Story, Charlie Brown Christmas and A Verry Sunny Christmas! Along with random South Park Christmas episodes.EPIC!

[@og_efan0279]

The guy that plays ricky also plays as masterchief in the halo series

[@TheJoshestWhite]

Glad he got out of that Rutt.

[@BoshyG]

always find it funny now rewatching this and seeing the fable 2 and halo wars advertisements

[@StarsDie88]

This one and South Park's Critter Christmas are my 2 Christmas traditions.

[@shapeshifter7676]

OMG I finally understand the elf bit...

[@chuppathingy2848]

Christopher Llyod cameo is amazing. Quick and hard to notice until you do lol

[@bentleyhunter9370]

Once again they recognise an actor from The Wire from everything but The Wire. I don't know if they've watched it or not, but if not then that needs to be rectified immediately.

[@chrism2935]

i can for some reason see this already without paying. it’s a christmas miracle

[@natsinthebelfry]

I don't think I've seen anyone notice this cameo yet - the toy store clerk who Mac and Charlie talk to is Derek Waters AKA the creator of Drunk History.

[@bigpictureguys8415]

21:42 “he has those olive eyes” 👀 Olive eyes? Some might say almond eyes are the weirdest.
