December 13 - The Santa Simulation - The Big Bang Theory

Holiday episodes of regular television series are always interesting in how they incorporate the season into their theme. Some shows just go for an adaptation of "A Christmas Carol" or "It's a Wonderful Life" while others celebrate the season with an unusual story. the Big Bang Theory has done this well with prior episodes and once again with their 2012 offering. Leonard is working to make a night of guys playing Dungeons and Dragons into an indoctrination of Santa and the Christmas spirit for Sheldon.

A couple moments are a touch dark, but the writers lighten the mood with some well timed humor.
