I remember the great “Dick Van Dyke Show” Christmas episode, with the gang putting on a show.
“Mad About You” had a sweet Christmas flashback as its main characters met in late December and had their first real talk at a Christmas party. “Barney Miller” had its own bittersweet take because no one — cop, victim, or suspect — wanted to be in the police station on Christmas.
