It's Leela's arm that's protective; Fry's hand is on Leela's hip/ass area, which started the whole debate in the first place.  But Fry's body is sort of shielding Leela.  Which is not unlike the first Xmas ep, where Fry positioned himself between Leela and Santa as they are backing away....

Let's split the difference and say that they were being protective of each other.  Any other time Fry could be accused of copping a feel, but in this situation, he's trying to shield Leela.  Leela, seeing this is trying to shield Fry and press the elevator button at the same time.

Bender is hiding behind both Leela and Fry.

Doing the Shiny-dictated TOTPD

Well, I think Leela is probably just being automatically protective, things were happening a bit quickly for deduction re: Fry's postion, but otherwise, I agree.

Now do your damn TotPD.

Omg, I love this episode. It's definitely up there, with one of the best. I love the Elves Song. Too memorable. Also, I have alot of good memories with this episode. More specifically, 2010. Once I rewatched the XMAS episodes. I liked the first xmas episode, but this one alot better.

10/10

I did think it was pretty violent, although not THAT violent.

Try "Tip Of The Zoidberg" if u thought this was violent

That was posted over eleven years ago. He's probably dead now.

Well that's rather harsh and depressing haha.

I actually watched this episode just a few days ago.

Generally I prefer "Xmas Story", but I like how this episode shows us more Santa. (And I might add that I prefer DiMaggio doing the voice.)

I can't say I blame the people that liked Xmas Story more. It was more story-driven.

But I pretty much liked this one better, because it had alot of funny gags, an awesome song. and a good story to along with it.

Season 8 has got me rewatching older episodes and there's one random thing I noticed: The family that attacks Bender when he enters their house is the same family he evicts from Elzar's restaurant in "Bender Gets Made". The dad also appears to be the vet from "I Second That Emotion".


That's all.

That's highly observant of you Mr. Peanutbutter!

I like the song that got this episode cancelled about beating the elves back to work.
