Now it's officially the Christmas season 🎄

[@CameronJohnson]

I cant stress this enough... I've watched a lot of folks on KZbin. But the one common thread has always been Johnny and Rob. I feel like I know these guys. I believe the first Christmas Special I watched was 2010, and have looked forward to every one after. I dont know if you will read this John, but if you remember, I did some music for your Movie, I believe the ninja fight scene in the parking garage. Anyway, thanks for being a part of our lives for so many years.

[@CameronJohnson]

@AssociationAdmirer Thanks man! I think it was just that scene, maybe one more.

[@Dusty_B]

Whenever I’m feeling down these never fail to cheer me up

[@Retcon404]

The look of anxiety while Rob flings the knife around and then cuts towards himself is priceless.

[@ZackAbramowitz]

They have such a beautiful friendship, and I pray that we all get to experience one like this.

[@Martel4]

This is why I love Christmas. Just people showing their love for each other and trying to think of ways to make each other happy. That's how it should be and why I like watching these videos.

[@7orotv3]

I downloaded Ys 8 just because I’ve seen you recommend it so much as a little Christmas gift for myself. I’m so excited to hop in soon. Wishing a happy holiday to Johnny and everyone in the community. 🙏🏽

[@thebigplume]

Laying in bed sick before Christmas my favourite annual Christmas show is exactly what I needed.

[@DownFromTheDoorWhereItBegan]

Merry Christmas Johnny and Robman! Merry Christmas to all! Here’s to another 16 years of Christmas Specials!!

[@happy_camper]

Oh man I love that Big Trouble in Little China sweater!! Hell yeah! One of my all-time favorite movies!

[@xDraZtiCx]

Just when you thought this Sunday couldn't get any better! Merry Xmas to you both and your families. And Merry Xmas to everyone in the comments 🎁❤️

[@BlackBearNE]

Oh shit, I completely lost track of time and was not prepared for this to drop TODAY! These Christmas specials are on repeat in my house all December. Lets gooo!!! 🎄

[@ff10fire666]

I really needed this, with work, family issues and someone breaking into my flat it's been a very stressful and felt unchristmasy. But watching Rob and Johnny hangout, telling stories and exchanging gifts has put me somewhat in the Christmas mood.

[@Nickshreds890]

Hey , I'm so sorry to hear that. I hope your Christmas is special and that you have an awesome end to the year! I see you like Final fantasy, so I know you're a cool person. "Plays final fantasy victory theme " you deserve some positivity and happiness! 🎉

[@ff10fire666]

@@Nickshreds890 Thanks mate, I'm trying not to let it bother me and continue on.

[@jat2319]

Sorry to hear about your struggles. Hope you have a great Christmas. Fill up on some good food and be merry :)

[@grey_wulf]

Robman is going to graduate from elf to Santa if he keeps that beard action going.

[@burn_cooper]

oh damn! Its already that time of the year where we binge watch every christmas special

[@katieblackmore2004]

Haha..... Yup

[@WaterDog1502]

Wait...SIXTEEN YEARS! Ever year i always look forward to this each Christmas

[@kcsnipes]

That gi Joe story took me back amazing, happy holidays gentlemen

[@Grind24hours]

All's well that ends well, both of you, Rob and Johnny. I wish you a merry x-mas from Sandnes, Norway😊

[@Serros13]

At this point; watching Rob and Johnny exchange gifts for Christmas is as essential ritual as having a Christmas tree! Thank you guys for your dedication and company... I wish you the best.

[@Juantífico]

My wife and I have been watching your channel almost since the beginning, and we also adopted the tradition of filming ourselves opening our Christmas presents from you. Watching your Christmas special us always a highlight of the year. Merry Christmas to you, your wife and Rob!

[@imrobotjo]

big fan of the channel. would love to collaborate one day. Keep it up. you guys rule!

[@billbrown8822]

that would be awesome. big fan of both of you!

[@Kasik0]

Another years boys!! Love these videos

[@Anthonylaynevoice]

Been here since Mario 64 Memories. Thanks for all the great content over the years. 🍻

[@HellsMaster]

Hey John I agree about time just flying by. In April I'll be 50. It seems like once you turn 30, time just goes faster. Enjoy every minute and game as much as you can! Happy New Year guys!

[@bennorrell6411]

This is just one of the most heartwarming, wholesome things I’ve seen on KZbin in a long time. Merry Christmas, fellas.

[@erdricktorest5427]

I said this on Twitter but I got to say this again, you guys inspired me to be more generous and helped me discover my passion for gift giving. My friend has been having a lousy year, has had to sell off a lot of his collection so I dug around to find some unique stuff. I got him a copy of a romhack of Ocarina of Time, special Zelda Lon Lon ranch milk jug cups, a Japanese copy of Wind Waker and a Switch sock frame off of Etsy.

[@IREDxIKLUTCHZ]

I feel like we are getting Christmas Specials faster and faster Jonnie and Ron man!!! Where is the time going?

[@robmiller3204]

The world has changed , as a soon to be 54 year old ( gamer ) at Christmas in the 70s I always looked forward to the claymation Christmas tv shows to watch , it was truly a highlight of the season . Now for bout 5 years since finding this amazing channel , this , this is what truly highlights my Christmas viewing 🎄 and as in years past I’ll marathon all the past ones . Thank you men 🙏🎄👍 it’s not Christmas without the the knife flick lol merry Christmas to you and your family good sirs ✌🏼🙏❤️🎄

[@TheACanning]

This is a Christmas tradition in our house. It’s not Christmas until Johnny and RobMan exchange gifts.

[@liamblake1614]

Watching this before taking off to see the new Miyazaki film in theaters! A wondrous Christmas indeed! Thank you both for the all the joy over the years

[@diendong]

Hope you had a fun experience unlike mine. The auditorium next door was blasting the Beyonce concert movie and ruined the beautiful quiet moments.

[@NateTheFilmGreat]

Favorite part of the season!!! Also I don’t know about the rest of you but I would love to see you and Rob play that game with the gi joes

[@noooname2568]

Merry Christmas to Johnny, Rob, baby and baby happy console gamer - and the entire Happy Console Gamer community 🙌

[@sinn3r147]

This is magical. There is no other word. It warms our hearts

[@manaowls]

Man, your Christmas Specials really became a tradition around the holidays for me in the last 10+ years. And through you guys I always find some new game or anime to explore. Happy Holidays! 🎄🎁

[@andrewbaghai6455]

I've been watching these for years now. Such an enviable friendship

[@paulotre5903]

Let’s freakin goooo!!! Best episode of the year. Shout out to Johnny and Rob.

[@ghost2031]

Yep, best episode.

[@TwoEyesOpen]

Ys-ily one of the best Christmas specials yet! I got especially nostalgic when you talked about the Warhammer 40k for dummies game you made, I did a really similar thing with my friends back in college!! That Contra deck is so sick.

[@vicrules6666]

I started watching these in my late 20s now im in my early 40s.

[@chrispycookie2591]

It’s the best time of the year when a new one of these gets released.

[@rossbroadley6787]

I was 11 years old when I started watching your channel. Fast forward 16 years, and this Christmas I’m popping the question to my girlfriend!

[@fareastarmadildo5093]

I am one of the ones that was watching this show since I was a young teen and still do today. I am soon 28 and independent and this show always brings a smile to my face.

[@rogeredrogered]

I am 21 years old, I started watching this when I was interested in retro video games when I was 10 years old. Thank you for this channel.

[@dondraper2376]

Johnny and Rob, You guys are officially on the Christmas equivalence of watching Home Alone, Santa Clause, and Jingle all the way every year! It’s like on my top Christmas watches now. Great Christmas tradition! Thank you both!

[@gavsgadgets]

This is part of my Christmas traditions!

[@saskue812]

I'm one of those people who started watching these when I was a teenager and now, here I am, an adult with responsibilities Always love seeing Johnny and Rob man together, Merry Christmas :)

I thought the tree was about to taken out by that final gift box. Great special! Makes me excited for Christmas.

[@leonkfox3606]

Been watching these every year since I was 20 in 2010 and I’m 33 now. I marathon them all every year, it isn’t Christmas without it.

[@damiankirkwood7924]

The wife gave me my Xmas gift early, she got me the analogue pocket and it is pretty amazing

[@aaronweber3954]

Thanks

[@aarondwood6628]

Me and my brother have watched these together religiously since 2014. Every year we watch every episode. I've long since moved and had kids of my own but we still make a day every year where we go on party chat on xbox and watch them all together and exchange gifts.

[@ty_sylicus]

Gift giving has always been stressful for me. It's great to see two old buddies spending time together and giving good gifts.

[@Sugaswhisper]

The best episodes on KZbin are the Christmas specials. Merry Christmas guys!

[@AlwaysTiim]

This is a must have every xmas! Have it best guys! 🥰😊

[@lupeayala3125]

Thank you guys for another Christmas Special! Really do appreciate it at was looking forward to it! Merry Christmas!👍🍻❤️

[@SaberStash]

Stuff like this really makes me appreciate YT as a platform, you're never gonna find something this wholesome and fun anywhere else. I mean, two friends, opening nerd themed gifts for every Christmas over the last 16 years, it's really special and amazing when you think about it. Thank you for the fun times on this channel and Merry Christmas!

[@CrimsonPhase]

16 years of watching these fun specials. Absolutely wild how fast time flies. Thanks for keeping the channel going strong all this time. Merry Christmas.

[@johnfillmore5184]

I just wanna say thanks for the Christmas videos. I don't know what it is, maybe it's that I've been watching the channel for years or maybe it's the nostalgia feel I get watching your videos and what not..but I get such a positive feeling everytime a new Christmas video comes out. The genuine reactions and appreciation you guys both have for your friendship and games just speaks volumes. Thanks for providing that feeling for us, when there's so much negativity in the world today. Can always rely on you guys to bring joy and happiness to our community. Merry Christmas guys to you and your families!

[@Randymarsh2069]

I just want to be friends with these guys. What a heartwarming friendship. You guys are the best.

[@Marcustopheles]

This is something I look forward to every Xmas. With all the negative bullshit on the internet, it's always a wonderful experience to see two true friends enjoying each other's company and opening awesome gifts.

[@shaded_lp]

This is also my tradition, to watch you guys every year, never stop. You are the best! I was 16 when I saw the first episode. Now Im 28.

[@TheSphereHunter]

I love how Rob and Johnny’s energy has never faded. 🥹🎅🏻🎄

[@andrewmaasch1724]

I've been watching these Christmas specials since 2016! It's become a Christmas tradition for me, similar to watching Home Alone or Batman Returns 😊 I love it! These Christmas specials really embody the spirit of Christmas and are so heart-warming to watch! Merry Christmas Johnny and Rob! 🎅

[@coretaku]

One of the few things that can still bring me Christmas cheer are these specials. Merry X-mas Johnny, and Rob.

[@courtneyjensen]

The charm of these Christmas special episodes is hard to overstate. Thanks for continuing to make them for so many years.

[@trevorpayer6104]

My favorite part of these episodes is the amount of thought and care involved in the gifts. An annual tradition worth following. Keep up the great works gents! Merry Christmas!

[@dylangordon3861]

Been watching since 2009, Started watching when I was 16 and now I'm 30. Time has flown! You guys are one of my favorite Christmas traditions haha love you guys!

[@jz1612]

It's cool that you guys would make your own version of War hammer with action figures me and my friends used to do the same. Cool figure I like how there was a story behind it. The skateboard was awesome too. Another great Christmas episode.

[@DadDuck412]

NOW my holiday is complete! Been watching you guys from the very first and has become a part of my yearly routine. Thanks guys!

[@Kswitchem]

It's officially the Christmas season. Last year I got one of our very best friends a gift and hand drew their favorite Paper Mario party member on the gift tag. This year I found them an actual handmade figure of that party member as the gift. So excited to exchange gifts with them this Saturday. Have a great holiday John and Rob!

[@RwnEsper]

These are always so wholesome! The stories that go along with the gifts are the best part.

[@wesm.2133]

Its nice to see friends give each other meaningful gifts and hugs and love, love you guys! From a fellow Canadian.

[@MrHabsJake]

Started watching at 12 years old in 2012 and it doesn’t feel like the holidays if I don’t watch these lovely Canadian boys geek out on Christmas. Happy holidays, cheers 🍻

[@scalinn7149]

So good to see Rob, my Christmas is not the same without rewatching all the Christmas episodes. I respect you both so much. Thank you for all the content.

[@Konuvis]

Christmas has officially started ❤ Merry Christmas everyone!

[@MagnumSkyWolf]

16 years of me watching this and I absolutely love it. Love you guys thanks for sharing it with us ❤❤

Literally seconds ago I was wondering where this years' Christmas special is - I guess Holiday miracles do happen!

[@chuck176]

Same!!!!! LOOK FORWARD TO IT EVERY YEAR!!!!!!

[@z0m813]

I look forward to this every year

[@awake4ages]

I aspire every year to buy my friends gifts that make them light up like these 2 in their videos. Merry Christmas Johnny and Rob, hard to believe we've been watching these for 16 years. And I'll still watch them until it's physically impossible for me to. :)

[@karmad.twelve6613]

I get so happy seeing you two unwrap your gifts! Even when I have no personal interest in the items, I just love the joy! Thank you!

[@jb0258]

You say thank you to us, but really we should be the ones thanking YOU. Robman and you have shared these special moments with us for so long now. You literally dont ever see this anywhere in life, not even just youtube or on the internet. Also thanks to your tradition of giving gifts, for the last 5 years or so, one of my best friends and I do this exact same thing now and make it a tradition. We do the whole appetizer gifts and everything too. Thank you and rob both for not just your Christmas specials every year, but also helping create these extraordinarily amazing traditions and moments for us as well, with the ones we care so much for too.

[@themailman3331]

I can’t believe this is like the 13th Christmas I’ve watched of you guys. Where does the f*cking time go? We love you guys.

[@videogameenjoyment4947]

I'm wearing my happy console gamer 15 years anniversary shirt of the show while watching this year's Christmas special episode! This is such a great show to always watch especially during this time of the year! Thanks for continuing the show and keeping it amazing!

[@motma]

My roommate hadn't worked in a while and is a huge LoZ fan. When tears came out I wanted him to play it so bad cuz I had it and loved it. He's like me though where we like to own the game we're playing sometimes. I got him it for Christmas this year, and when he opened it up, I could tell he was super happy. You guys really inspired me to get him something really meaningful for him. Thank you and Merry Christmas!

[@goldrivers598]

My favorite Christmas tradition for the past 11 years, merry Christmas to you both! Glad you're still killing it with Rob 4!

[@ArcanineGirl]

Who needs Holiday movies and specials on TV when we have the best Holiday special here on KZbin! I always look forward to this every year. I know a lot of people say that but we deeply mean it! The past six months have been an emotional roller coaster ride for me so thank you, Johnny, for the awesome videos you gift us all year long. Merry Christmas and Happy New Year!

[@TheCbell880]

Love it every year!!. I'm sitting with a whiskey in my hand and love watching you two sharing gifts. Keep it going lads!! Great tradition !

[@resellingwithjon]

Every year this is one of the most wholesome videos… thanks for sharing. Merry Christmas John and Rob!

[@Torrybobs]

I always watch these on Christmas Eve to get me excited for the day, it’s been amazing seeing these two celebrate for the last 16 years and I can’t wait for the next 16!
