The Christmas episode from last year that was pulled due to "offensive content" is finally being shown (Dec. 23). Anybody know what it was about?

The PE gang traps Santa and Bender takes his place. Coolio guest-stars as Kwanzaa-Bot.

The following is an episode description of "A Tale of Two Santas" for those who asked or wanted to know...

Once again New New York braces itself for the yuletide arrival of Robot Santa, or as he's also known, "That bloodthirsty cadaver junkie." People who watched last year's Futurama holiday spectacular "Xmas Story" will remember that the Santa of the 30th century has gone far beyond handing out lumps of coal to bad kids and now dispenses retribution with a machine gun. As pretty much everyone in the galaxy is on Santa's naughty list this year, Fry, Leela and Bender decide to take him down.

Infiltrating Santa's Death Fortress on Neptune, the heroes engage Santa in battle and succeed in trapping him in ice. They then set out to restore joy to Xmas by selecting a new Robot Santa who will deliever presents to good kids. Naturally Bender gets the job. This leads to a wonderfully twisted musical number wherein Fry, Leela and Bender put Santa's alien elf slaves back to work making toys at breakneck speed.

Dressed as Santa, Bender takes the toys to Earth and tries to dispense them ("At very reasonable prices!"  but the memory of the previous robot Santa's rampage is still fresh in everyones minds. Bender is violently shot or beaten everywhere he goes and is finally arrested and condemned to be pulled apart by giant magnets. Realizing they've made a mistake, Fry and Leela free the real Santa who arrives on Earth in time to save Bender. The two robots then go on a gleeful Xmas eve "slay" ride which reduces the entire city to flames.

There you have it, a detailed episode description of "A Tale of Two Santas".
