Synopsis
This page about a Christmas special or an episode from a television series with a Christmas theme is in need of a longer synopsis. You can help the Christmas Special Wiki by expanding this synopsis. |
Ginger discovers that she's one-quarter Jewish. She decides to celebrate with a Hanukkah party and turns her back on Dodie's Christmas party, which upsets Dodie. She then decides to throw a party as an "even steven" holiday party. Meanwhile, Hoodsey finds out that the reason Carl doesn't believe in Santa Claus is because he used to wish that his father would come home for Christmas, and he never did. Hoodsey tells a street corner Santa, who is really Jonas, about this and Jonas decides to pay his family a visit.
Notes
- When Ginger is welcoming guests, she says, "Happy Birthday, Baby J!" Up until the Rugrats reboot's holiday episode "Traditions" in 2021, this was as close as any Nicktoon came to mentioning Jesus by name (although a character does refer to a baby Jesus in a manger scene as "that baby in the hay" in the original Rugrats series' last Christmas special, "Babies in Toyland").
