Of the three "official" Christmas episodes of MST3K, which one is your favorite? All 3 are good, but of course, I have to go with Santa vs the Martians.

It's a close tie between the two OG episodes. Just like Joel and Mike in general, each is what it is for what it is.
I haven't seen the Jonah episode yet.

They're all great, but I think I lean toward Santa Claus.
It's just...it's just so psychotic.

Santa Claus all the way
I prefer Mike to Joel, maybe because I grew up on Mike I don't know.
And I think it is the more baffling, funnier movie.

I prefer Mike but Santa Claus Conquers the Martians is one of Joel's best episodes. Plus the Patrick Swayze Christmas song is a classic.

Anyone who says "The Christmas That Almost Wasn't" is a cop.

Anyone who says "The Christmas That Almost Wasn't" is a cop. It IS a good episode, with one of my favorite running gags from the whole series. But yeah, not as good as the other two. |

See, I tried to break the tie using the host segments too, but it's still equal footing, IMO. For instance...on one hand I love Crow wanting to decide who lives and who dies. But on the other hand, Mike nearly killing all the bots while caroling is a hoot. Patrick Swayze = easy win? Not so, if you have Merry Christmas (If That's OK). |

"Santa Claus Conquers the Martians" is one of the best MST3K episodes ever.

I'm writing in Mitchell as Linda Evans as the prostitute is referenced as a "Christmas present" and evildoer John Saxon has a Christmas tree in his home.
MITCHELL!

Santa Claus all the way. Just a demented fever dream of a film.
