==Transcript==

''{A "SPECIAL" logo appears on the screen and spins a few times as we zoom in on it. As this happens, it turns from blue to pink.}''

''{Music plays in the background. A calendar appears for the month of December, with most of the days crossed out in red X's. December 21st and 22nd (Friday and Saturday) become crossed out, then the camera zooms in on Sunday the 23rd. A title appears: "A new Homestar cartoon written and animated by the Brethren Chaps." This title is crossed out with a red X, and the camera pans to Monday the 24th. Another title appears: "Voices by Matt C. and Missy P." This title is then crossed out, and the camera pans to Tuesday the 25th, which is already labeled "Decemberween". This day is circled in red, and additional words appear, making the title read: "The Best Decemberween Ever". Fade out.}''

''{Fade outside, next to Homestar's house, where it is snowing. The background music continues to play. Homestar walks out of his house wearing a brown hunter's hat. He walks a short distance and behind a brick wall, stopping next to Strong Sad, who is leaning on the wall. The music slowly fades out.}''

'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' ''{Sighs twice, with his breath visible. A long pause, and then he sighs again.}''

''' STRONG SAD:''' What's the matter, Homestar?

'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' ''{Surprised}'' Oh! Strong Sad! I can't decide what to get Strong Bad for Decemberween.

'''STRONG SAD:''' Uh... What do you mean?

''{Cut to a wide shot with Homestar and Strong Sad silhouetted.}''

'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' Well, I know he's kind of a jerk sometimes, and he says "holy crap" a lot, but I think if I get him the perfect present, he just might like me again.

''{Cut to a close-up of Strong Sad.}''

'''STRONG SAD:''' What? People get presents for Decemberween? I always just get locked in the bathtub!

''{Cut to the original shot of both characters.}''

'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' Oh... Right. Uh... I gotta go. ''{Homestar dashes off, temporarily leaving a cloud shaped like himself behind.}''

''{Cut to Coach Z and Homestar walking in front of some trees. The trees have signs on them.}''

'''COACH Z:''' Well, Homestar, I'll tell ya. Buying a Decemberween present for Strong Bad is like a great sports play.

'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' Let me guess. I can't just rush into the score zone.

'''COACH Z:''' ''{stops and turns around}'' Hey, that's right!

'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' ''{frustrated}'' Coach! That's your answer for everything!

'''COACH Z:''' Oh. ''{pauses, then holds up a bottle of blue mouthwash}'' Mouthwarsh? ''{begins gulping mouthwash down}''

''{Cut to Homestar and Marzipan in her house. Marzipan is wearing a green dress instead of her normal purple dress, and she is drawing protest signs.}''

'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' ...and then he said it was like a great sports play. And I didn't even think that applies to this situation.

'''MARZIPAN:''' That's great, Homestar. ''{starts writing on a blank sign: "DEC"}'' Why don't you just get him a shirt? He doesn't seem to have very many of those.

''{Cut to a close-up of Homestar.}''

'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' No, I'm pretty sure he enjoys going topless.

''{The camera zooms back out.}''

'''MARZIPAN:''' Well, you could get him a sponge, or a Jew's harp, or you could make some him some Chex party mix... ''{by now, she has written "DECEMBER WEEN KILLS"}''

'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' No way, those are terrible ideas.

''{Zoom in to Homestar's face again}''

'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' ''{laughing}'' Like, I don't even want to see what you got me this year. ''{chuckles}''

''{Cut to a close-up of Marzipan.}''

'''MARZIPAN:''' ''{turning to Homestar angrily}'' Why don't you go bother somebody else?!

''{She drops her completed sign. Cut back to the original shot of Homestar and Marzipan. The new sign reads: "DECEMBER WEEN KILLS BUNNIES"}''

'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' Now that's a good idea!

''{The background music starts up again. Cut to a silhouette of Homestar walking among some trees, which sway back and forth in the wind. Cut to Bubs' Concession Stand, which has lights and holiday decorations all over it. Homestar walks up.}''

'''BUBS:''' Hey there, Homestar, what can I do for you on this fine holiday?

'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' I can't find a freakin' present for Strong Bad.

'''BUBS:''' Well, you know what Coach Z says...

''{Zoom in on Homestar.}''

'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' ''{annoyed, and leaning back}'' Yes, I know! I know!

''{Zoom back out.}''

'''BUBS:''' Oh, well, take a look around. I got all types of crazy crap!

''{Zoom in on Homestar again.}''

'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' ''{holds up a NES cartridge: ''Tag Team Wrestling''}'' No... ''{tosses it away, holds up a pair of gold, sparkling oven mitts with "SB" written in cursive letters}'' No... ''{tosses the gloves away, pulls out a Strong Sad voodoo doll with pins sticking out of it}'' Uh, are you allowed to sell this? ''{tosses the doll away, holds up a "Frampton Comes Alive" album with an autograph addressed to Strong Bad}'' No...

''{Cut to a silhouette of Bubs' Concession Stand as seen from the side. The items Homestar discarded are lying in a pile behind him.}''

'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' ''{holds up a rectangular object}'' That's it! This is the perfect present!

''{Cut to a field with snow-covered trees in the background. The camera pans right to show several of the characters opening or exchanging gifts. Strong Mad and The Cheat are the first to appear. The Cheat opens a gift and his head explodes. Marzipan pans into the shot, followed by Coach Z in the foreground.}''

'''MARZIPAN:''' ''{opens her gift, a Coach Z scratch n' sniff 2002 calendar}'' Coach Z, this is nasty.

'''COACH Z:''' That's okay. Smell Orctober!

''{Camera continues panning, revealing Strong Bad and Pom Pom, and Homestar standing in the foreground. Strong Bad is wearing yellow earmuffs.}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' ''{holds up his gift and shakes it}'' Okay, let's see what we got from Homestar here...

'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' Open it! Open it! That one's from me. It took me forever to pick it out!

'''STRONG BAD:''' ''{opens his gift, which turns out to be a ''Deep Impact'' DVD}'' What?! The ''Deep Impact'' DVD?! You got me this for like the last three years, man!

'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' I know! And you liked it so much, I decided to get it for you again!

'''STRONG BAD:''' Oh, man! This is the worst Decemberween ever!

'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' ''{after Strong Bad says "This is the worst"}'' This is the best Decemberween ever!

''{Cut to black, then fade back in to the field. All of the main characters except Strong Sad and Homsar are gathered together. During each chorus, everyone sings except The Poopsmith and Pom Pom. The Cheat squeaks along with the music, and Coach Z pronounces Decemberween as "Decemberwern".}''

'''EVERYONE:''' ''{Singing to the tune of [[Wikipedia:O Tannenbaum|"O Christmas Tree"]]}'' Decemberween, Decemberween, you're fifty-five days after Halloween.

''{Cut to a close-up of Marzipan}''

'''MARZIPAN:''' With bunnies running for their lives,

''{Pan left to The King of Town}''

'''KING OF TOWN:''' ''{holding up a bunny on a plate}'' I wish this one was super-sized!

''{Cut back out to the group shot}''

'''EVERYONE:''' Decemberween, Decemberween, you're fifty-five days after Halloween!

''{Cut to Strong Sad entering from the right}''

'''STRONG SAD:''' ''{off-key, a wavering third below}'' What are you guys talking about?

'''STRONG BAD:''' ''{moves in front of Strong Sad}'' Hey, who the crap let Strong Sad out?

''{Cut back out to the group shot. Strong Sad is now gone.}''

'''EVERYONE:''' Decemberween, Decemberween, you're fifty-five days after Halloween!

''{Cut to a close-up of Bubs}''

'''BUBS:''' I've got all types of crazy crap!

'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' ''{enters the shot from the right}'' I bought Strong Bad a ''Deep Impact''!

''{Cut back out to the group shot}''

'''EVERYONE:''' Decemberween, Decemberween

'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' Coach Z's been drinking Listerine!

''{Music cuts out with a record scratch as Coach Z wobbles and falls face first into the snow. Fade to black.}''

==Easter Eggs==

*When Homestar is talking to Bubs at his concession stand, you can remove some of the Christmas lights and move them around just as in the [[Astro Lite]] game! To help do this, pause the toon by right-clicking and unchecking play.

==Fun Facts==

===Explanations===

*A [[Wikipedia:Jew's harp|Jew's harp]] is an ancient Eurasian instrument, also known as a jaw harp or mouth harp. Some believe it is called a 'juice harp' because the sound of the words 'juice' and 'Jews' are similar. It should also be noted that some people consider the term Jew's harp offensive, and that the alternatives are generally preferred.

===Trivia===

*This toon marks the start of Strong Sad's voice becoming more "delicate," though some of his "fatigued" voice still remains at this time.
*This toon also marks the completion of Strong Bad's voice not having the Mexican accent (in other words, he sounds more like how he does today).
*The signs on the trees are as follows:
**3% APR!!!
**The Decemberator 2000
**Zero Down!
**[[Cheap as Free]]
**buy me! i'm awesome
**No you're not. I am.
*Marzipan's protest signs are as follows:
**DOWN WITH D'WEEN! ''(two signs)''
**I THINK IT'S TOO COMMERCIALIZED! ''(two signs)''
**DECEMBER WEEN KILLS BUNNIES
*The signs at Bubs' Concession Stand are:
**Concessions By Bubs
**ALL TYPES OF CRAZY CRAP
**WE "GOT" THE GOODS
**decem-berween stuff
*Among the items Homestar finds at Bubs' is a copy of the [[Nintendo|NES]] game ''[[Wikipedia:Tag Team Wrestling|Tag Team Wrestling]]''. The game's teams were called "The Ricky Fighters" and "The Strong Bads". This game is where Strong Bad got his name.
*This is the first cartoon where [[Decemberween]] is mentioned by its real name.
*Homestar says that he thinks that if he gets Strong Bad "the perfect present, he just might like [Homestar] '''again'''". This suggests that Homestar and Strong Bad may have once been friends.

===Remarks===

*[[A Holiday Greeting]] had the same page title, as well as the same intro and loading screen.
*This cartoon seems to have been made during a transitionary period of sorts: The animation is of the most recent style, but the voices are the type that are associated more with the previous style. Notice, for instance, Homestar's pronunciation of "Strong Bad". Also, Bubs' Concession stand still has its old "Concessions by Bubs" sign, as seen in [[Where's The Cheat?]] and [[A Jumping Jack Contest]].
*The calendar at the beginning of the toon only shows 29 days in the month.
*In [[Marshmallow's Last Stand]], Homestar has the shape of a star on his soles. In this toon, his footprints in the snow are just lines.

===Goofs===

*Strong Sad has no arms and has a wider torso while he is singing.
*Strong Bad has no arms before he says "You got me this for like, the last three years, man!"
*During the singing, if you listen closely, you can hear little The Cheat noises, but The Cheat doesn't move until the end.
*When Coach Z and Homestar are walking, the "Buy me, I'm awesome" sign on the Christmas tree is covering up a little bit of the tree in front of it.
*When Homestar and Coach Z are walking along together, they don't leave any footprints in the snow.
*There are various points in this toon when the outline on the back of Homestar's head goes inside his body and out the back of his shirt.
*When Homestar talks, the outline of his hat moves.
*In the calendar scene, the red X over the 23rd disappears when the camera pans to the 24th.
*During the Decemberween song and when Homestar is talking to Bubs, Bubs' orange outline is outside of his green one.
*The King of Town is missing the bottom part of his robe.
* When Homestar is talking to Strong Sad, some of the snowflakes do not reach the ground.

===Inside References===

*The [[oven mitts]] are a reference to [[In Search Of The Yello Dello DVD|In Search of the Yello Dello]], as is Coach Z's quote regarding the "great sports play".
*Strong Bad and Homestar comment that this is the [[Best/Worst X Ever|Best/Worst Decemberween Ever]].

===Real-World References===

*The introduction, with the spinning Special logo and sound effect, is a reference to the logo and sound that CBS used to preface their specials. The actual opening, used from 1973 to the late 1980s, is viewable [http://youtube.com/watch?v=6W9V9SZPHAY here]. This was used earlier in [[A Holiday Greeting]], as well as in [[The Luau]] (in this case, only the music was used).
*This toon contains many references to the "[[Peanuts]]" cartoons by Charles Schulz (particularly "A Charlie Brown Christmas"). For example, Homestar wears a winter hat (similar to Charlie Brown's hat) and walks out of a house, along the low brick wall and sighs. In addition, Strong Sad's arms are drawn in a particular way. Also, one of Marzipan's signs reads that Decemberween is too commercial, which is also similarly referenced in "A Charlie Brown Christmas", in which Charlie Brown thinks his dog Snoopy has gone commercial when he sees him decorating his dog house to enter a "lights and display" contest. Finally, it pays further homage at the end, when all the cast gets together and sings a song (which the Peanuts always did in their holiday specials).
*The page title refers to [[Wikipedia:Dolly Madison|Dolly Madison Bakery]], a sponsor of various cartoon specials on CBS -- including Peanuts -- throughout the 1960s and 1970s.
*The title of this 'toon is based on the book, [[Wikipedia:The Best Christmas Pageant Ever|"The Best Christmas Pageant Ever"]], by [[Wikipedia:Barbara Robinson|Barbara Robinson]]. The plot has nothing in common except for the holiday theme, of course.
*The Peter Frampton album Homestar finds at the concession stand is "''[[Wikipedia:Frampton Comes Alive!|Frampton Comes Alive!]]''", and is autographed: "To: Strong Bad, Best Wishes! – P.F."
*[[The Cheat's head exploding]] when he opened a present is possibly a reference to [[Wikipedia:The Smurfs|The Smurfs]], in which [[Wikipedia:Jokey Smurf|Jokey Smurf]] would give someone a present that would explode in the opener's face.
*[[Wikipedia:Listerine|Listerine]] (Coach Z's "mouthwarsh") is an over-the-counter mouthwash created by [[Wikipedia:Pfizer|Pfizer Inc.]] With an alcohol concentration between 21% and 26% w/v, it is possible to get drunk off of Listerine, as demonstrated by Coach Z. However, the alcohol in Listerine is denatured, which would cause him to regurgitate it before the alcohol could take effect.
*''[[Wikipedia:Deep Impact (film)|Deep Impact]]'' is a 1998 science fiction film released by [[Wikipedia:Paramount Pictures|Paramount Pictures]] and [[Wikipedia:DreamWorks Pictures|DreamWorks Pictures]]. The interrelated stories of the plot describe events which take place surrounding the discovery of the fictional comet "Wolf-Biederman" due to impact Earth, and its subsequent approach to our planet.
*[[Wikipedia:Chex Mix|Chex party mix]] is a common holiday snack containing [[Wikipedia:Chex|Chex]] [[Breakfast Cereal|cereal]], pretzels, spices, etc.
*One of the pieces of 'crazy crap' that Bub hands Homestar (the first one, in particular) is a game cartridge for the original Nintendo Entertainment System (NES).

===Fast Forward===

*Strong Sad getting locked in the bathtub, as mentioned in this toon, is later seen in [[Homestar Presents: Presents]].
*Homestar gives Strong Bad a Deep Impact DVD again in [[Real Live Emails]].
*Coach Z is seen treating [[Listerine]] as an alcoholic drink multiple times after this toon.

== DVD Version ==
*The DVD version features creators' commentary. To access it, switch your DVD player's audio language selection while watching.
*The Special fanfare has been changed into a skat remix done by the Chapman Bros. However, the original fanfare can still be heard during the commentary.

===Commentary Transcript===

'''MIKE:''' So, Matt, once again I have a confession to make.

'''MATT:''' What is it, Mike?

'''MIKE:''' I think it's probably been five years since I watched this cartoon?

'''MATT:''' Wow.

'''MIKE:''' Well, it's not been five years because it hasn't been five years since we made it.

'''MATT:''' Is this cartoon even five...

'''MIKE:''' I think we made it in December of 2001. It's been four years, a ''GOOD'' four years.

'''MATT:''' It's a nice little, uh, title sequence, though. I like it.

'''MIKE:''' Calendar.

'''MATT:''' Calendar-style. It was invented...

'''MIKE:''' Classic.

'''MATT:''' Simple...calendar...classic.

'''MIKE:''' ''{laughs}''

'''MATT:''' So this beginning is very, very derivative, Mike, of the Charlie Brown Christmas Special.

'''MIKE:''' Charlie...?

'''MATT:''' ''{laughs}'' Look at the— a lot of those snow flakes don't even make it to the bottom of the screen! Look at how terrible those snowflake clips are!

'''MIKE:''' Yeah. That's laziness.

'''MATT:''' ''{undecipherable gibberish, in the tone of Strong Sad's old voice}''Homestar!

'''MIKE:''' Do they have the breath on this one?

'''MATT:''' Uh, he does occasionally. I think he was just now. I think we missed it when he was going "Huuuuh"

'''MIKE:''' ''{sighs}'' Sighing.

'''MATT:''' What do you think the purpose of that wall is?

'''MIKE:''' Looks like it's about maybe ten feet, maybe ten, twelve feet long...

'''MATT:''' Yeah, same with, like, in Peanuts. Like it's— it's just a wall that's independent, by itself, I don't know if it's dividing something from...

'''MIKE:''' Oh, look! It's Strong Sad's old mouth.

'''MATT:''' Oh, yeah. And his funny arms!

'''MIKE:''' ''{laughs}''

'''MATT:''' "The Decemberator 2000" is a great name for a Christmas tree. It's funny that we're making reference to The Yello Dello in this with Coach Z's dialogue, which now, I would, I wanna pretend The Yello Dello maybe never happened.

'''MIKE:''' ''{laughs}''

'''MATT:''' No, that's not true. I remember we wrote this, uh, a lot of this driving to and from Ashville visiting with... would that've been...

'''MIKE:''' "All The Real Girls"

'''MATT:''' Yeah, "All The Real Girls". So Marzipan is dressed up in this, like, Decemberween, y'know, attire. She's clearly in the spirit of things, yet she's going to protest it at the same time.

'''MIKE:''' ''{laughs}'' I don't think we've ever seen this wallpaper and that whole background.

'''MATT:''' And that lamp...

'''MIKE:''' Has that lamp shown up?

'''MATT:''' I don't think so.

'''MIKE:''' We usually just see Marzipan's red couch, or her blue couch, and, um, her "Thank You" painting.

'''MATT:''' Right. Oooh! Woosh. ''{wind noises}''

'''MIKE:''' I like that wind. I remember thinking that was ''solid''.

'''MATT:''' There's the old "Concessions by Bubs" sign! I didn't realize, so the rest of his concession stand is still the same. But just the sign is updated.

'''MIKE:''' Yeah.

'''MATT:''' I thought we did a whole overhaul. The inside, too. You can see the popcorn machine and microwave that he used to have in there.

'''MIKE:''' ''{laughs}''

'''MATT:''' Now he just has a couple shelves and a sno-cone machine. Is that about it?

'''MIKE:''' Yeah.

'''MATT:''' ''{regarding all the gifts that Homestar is throwing}'' Wait, Mike! These are all things that would be very appropriate for Strong Bad to have.

'''MIKE:''' It's just... and Strong Bad liking Frampton!

'''MATT:''' ''{laughs}'' That was short-lived!

'''MIKE:''' ''{laughs}'' ...short-lived!

'''MATT:''' It's like, "Well, if you happen to see this one part on our website, then maybe..."

'''MATT:''' There's another instance of The Cheat's head exploding. That seems to happen to him a lot.

'''MIKE:''' That's a nice little— we don't do little pans like that. Uh, camera moves.

'''MATT:''' Let's get into camera moves again, you and I.

'''MIKE:''' Let's give a high-five for 2007 being the year of the camera move.

'''MATT:''' That's right. It must be hard to be Homestar's friend or enemy, even, in this case. Yeah, I like that...

'''MIKE:''' Pom Pom's hat's cool.

'''MATT:''' Strong Bad shaking his head there looked pretty good with his like, his earmuffs moved in a little bit of 3-D, there. That was a pretty good take.

'''MIKE:''' I forgot about— look at the King of Town, the bottom of the King of Town's body!

'''MATT:''' It's clearly just an unfinished symbol!

'''MIKE:''' Yeah!

'''MATT:''' He should have a liner. The liner of his robe should go around the bottom there. That bunny has only one eye. That's because we traced the bitmap with Streamline, I think. Adobe Streamline.

'''MIKE:''' Oh. That's a useful— that's a program we use a lot these days. Do they still make Streamline?

'''MATT:''' I don't think so. I think we asked that at that FlashForward.

'''MIKE:''' Look! No arms!

'''MATT:''' ''{singing}'' No aaarrrmms!

'''MIKE:''' No arms! Come on, Matt! Put some arms on that guy!

'''MATT:''' Hey! ''You'' animated this whole end part! If I remember correctly. I made ''some'' of the individual clips of people... Bubs raising his arms...

'''MIKE:''' Why'd you think we could get away with things like...

'''MATT:''' We didn't notice! That's the thing! I don't think it was like, "I don't wanna put arms on him." It was just like, "Hey! Cartoon!"

'''MIKE:''' Did we just not know what the characters looked like, yet, or had it not been established that this guy has arms!

'''MATT:''' ''{laughs}''

'''MIKE:''' Every time!

'''MATT:''' ''{laughs}'' Yeah! ''{regarding "Coach Z's been drinking Listerine}'' Eww. Oh, Coach Z.

==Easter Eggs==

*When Homestar is talking to Bubs at his concession stand, you can remove some of the Christmas lights and move them around just as in the [[Astro Lite]] game! To help do this, pause the toon by right-clicking and unchecking play.

==Fun Facts==

===Explanations===

*A [[Wikipedia:Jew's harp|Jew's harp]] is an ancient Eurasian instrument, also known as a jaw harp or mouth harp. Some believe it is called a 'juice harp' because the sound of the words 'juice' and 'Jews' are similar. It should also be noted that some people consider the term Jew's harp offensive, and that the alternatives are generally preferred.

===Trivia===

*This toon marks the start of Strong Sad's voice becoming more "delicate," though some of his "fatigued" voice still remains at this time.
*This toon also marks the completion of Strong Bad's voice not having the Mexican accent (in other words, he sounds more like how he does today).
*The signs on the trees are as follows:
**3% APR!!!
**The Decemberator 2000
**Zero Down!
**[[Cheap as Free]]
**buy me! i'm awesome
**No you're not. I am.
*Marzipan's protest signs are as follows:
**DOWN WITH D'WEEN! ''(two signs)''
**I THINK IT'S TOO COMMERCIALIZED! ''(two signs)''
**DECEMBER WEEN KILLS BUNNIES
*The signs at Bubs' Concession Stand are:
**Concessions By Bubs
**ALL TYPES OF CRAZY CRAP
**WE "GOT" THE GOODS
**decem-berween stuff
*Among the items Homestar finds at Bubs' is a copy of the [[Nintendo|NES]] game ''[[Wikipedia:Tag Team Wrestling|Tag Team Wrestling]]''. The game's teams were called "The Ricky Fighters" and "The Strong Bads". This game is where Strong Bad got his name.
*This is the first cartoon where [[Decemberween]] is mentioned by its real name.
*Homestar says that he thinks that if he gets Strong Bad "the perfect present, he just might like [Homestar] '''again'''". This suggests that Homestar and Strong Bad may have once been friends.

===Remarks===

*[[A Holiday Greeting]] had the same page title, as well as the same intro and loading screen.
*This cartoon seems to have been made during a transitionary period of sorts: The animation is of the most recent style, but the voices are the type that are associated more with the previous style. Notice, for instance, Homestar's pronunciation of "Strong Bad". Also, Bubs' Concession stand still has its old "Concessions by Bubs" sign, as seen in [[Where's The Cheat?]] and [[A Jumping Jack Contest]].
*The calendar at the beginning of the toon only shows 29 days in the month.
*In [[Marshmallow's Last Stand]], Homestar has the shape of a star on his soles. In this toon, his footprints in the snow are just lines.

===Goofs===

*Strong Sad has no arms and has a wider torso while he is singing.
*Strong Bad has no arms before he says "You got me this for like, the last three years, man!"
*During the singing, if you listen closely, you can hear little The Cheat noises, but The Cheat doesn't move until the end.
*When Coach Z and Homestar are walking, the "Buy me, I'm awesome" sign on the Christmas tree is covering up a little bit of the tree in front of it.
*When Homestar and Coach Z are walking along together, they don't leave any footprints in the snow.
*There are various points in this toon when the outline on the back of Homestar's head goes inside his body and out the back of his shirt.
*When Homestar talks, the outline of his hat moves.
*In the calendar scene, the red X over the 23rd disappears when the camera pans to the 24th.
*During the Decemberween song and when Homestar is talking to Bubs, Bubs' orange outline is outside of his green one.
*The King of Town is missing the bottom part of his robe.
* When Homestar is talking to Strong Sad, some of the snowflakes do not reach the ground.

===Inside References===

*The [[oven mitts]] are a reference to [[In Search Of The Yello Dello DVD|In Search of the Yello Dello]], as is Coach Z's quote regarding the "great sports play".
*Strong Bad and Homestar comment that this is the [[Best/Worst X Ever|Best/Worst Decemberween Ever]].

===Real-World References===

*The introduction, with the spinning Special logo and sound effect, is a reference to the logo and sound that CBS used to preface their specials. The actual opening, used from 1973 to the late 1980s, is viewable [http://youtube.com/watch?v=6W9V9SZPHAY here]. This was used earlier in [[A Holiday Greeting]], as well as in [[The Luau]] (in this case, only the music was used).
*This toon contains many references to the "[[Peanuts]]" cartoons by Charles Schulz (particularly "A Charlie Brown Christmas"). For example, Homestar wears a winter hat (similar to Charlie Brown's hat) and walks out of a house, along the low brick wall and sighs. In addition, Strong Sad's arms are drawn in a particular way. Also, one of Marzipan's signs reads that Decemberween is too commercial, which is also similarly referenced in "A Charlie Brown Christmas", in which Charlie Brown thinks his dog Snoopy has gone commercial when he sees him decorating his dog house to enter a "lights and display" contest. Finally, it pays further homage at the end, when all the cast gets together and sings a song (which the Peanuts always did in their holiday specials).
*The page title refers to [[Wikipedia:Dolly Madison|Dolly Madison Bakery]], a sponsor of various cartoon specials on CBS -- including Peanuts -- throughout the 1960s and 1970s.
*The title of this 'toon is based on the book, [[Wikipedia:The Best Christmas Pageant Ever|"The Best Christmas Pageant Ever"]], by [[Wikipedia:Barbara Robinson|Barbara Robinson]]. The plot has nothing in common except for the holiday theme, of course.
*The Peter Frampton album Homestar finds at the concession stand is "''[[Wikipedia:Frampton Comes Alive!|Frampton Comes Alive!]]''", and is autographed: "To: Strong Bad, Best Wishes! – P.F."
*[[The Cheat's head exploding]] when he opened a present is possibly a reference to [[Wikipedia:The Smurfs|The Smurfs]], in which [[Wikipedia:Jokey Smurf|Jokey Smurf]] would give someone a present that would explode in the opener's face.
*[[Wikipedia:Listerine|Listerine]] (Coach Z's "mouthwarsh") is an over-the-counter mouthwash created by [[Wikipedia:Pfizer|Pfizer Inc.]] With an alcohol concentration between 21% and 26% w/v, it is possible to get drunk off of Listerine, as demonstrated by Coach Z. However, the alcohol in Listerine is denatured, which would cause him to regurgitate it before the alcohol could take effect.
*''[[Wikipedia:Deep Impact (film)|Deep Impact]]'' is a 1998 science fiction film released by [[Wikipedia:Paramount Pictures|Paramount Pictures]] and [[Wikipedia:DreamWorks Pictures|DreamWorks Pictures]]. The interrelated stories of the plot describe events which take place surrounding the discovery of the fictional comet "Wolf-Biederman" due to impact Earth, and its subsequent approach to our planet.
*[[Wikipedia:Chex Mix|Chex party mix]] is a common holiday snack containing [[Wikipedia:Chex|Chex]] [[Breakfast Cereal|cereal]], pretzels, spices, etc.
*One of the pieces of 'crazy crap' that Bub hands Homestar (the first one, in particular) is a game cartridge for the original Nintendo Entertainment System (NES).

===Fast Forward===

*Strong Sad getting locked in the bathtub, as mentioned in this toon, is later seen in [[Homestar Presents: Presents]].
*Homestar gives Strong Bad a Deep Impact DVD again in [[Real Live Emails]].
*Coach Z is seen treating [[Listerine]] as an alcoholic drink multiple times after this toon.

== DVD Version ==
*The DVD version features creators' commentary. To access it, switch your DVD player's audio language selection while watching.
*The Special fanfare has been changed into a skat remix done by the Chapman Bros. However, the original fanfare can still be heard during the commentary.

===Commentary Transcript===

'''MIKE:''' So, Matt, once again I have a confession to make.

'''MATT:''' What is it, Mike?

'''MIKE:''' I think it's probably been five years since I watched this cartoon?

'''MATT:''' Wow.

'''MIKE:''' Well, it's not been five years because it hasn't been five years since we made it.

'''MATT:''' Is this cartoon even five...

'''MIKE:''' I think we made it in December of 2001. It's been four years, a ''GOOD'' four years.

'''MATT:''' It's a nice little, uh, title sequence, though. I like it.

'''MIKE:''' Calendar.

'''MATT:''' Calendar-style. It was invented...

'''MIKE:''' Classic.

'''MATT:''' Simple...calendar...classic.

'''MIKE:''' ''{laughs}''

'''MATT:''' So this beginning is very, very derivative, Mike, of the Charlie Brown Christmas Special.

'''MIKE:''' Charlie...?

'''MATT:''' ''{laughs}'' Look at the— a lot of those snow flakes don't even make it to the bottom of the screen! Look at how terrible those snowflake clips are!

'''MIKE:''' Yeah. That's laziness.

'''MATT:''' ''{undecipherable gibberish, in the tone of Strong Sad's old voice}''Homestar!

'''MIKE:''' Do they have the breath on this one?

'''MATT:''' Uh, he does occasionally. I think he was just now. I think we missed it when he was going "Huuuuh"

'''MIKE:''' ''{sighs}'' Sighing.

'''MATT:''' What do you think the purpose of that wall is?

'''MIKE:''' Looks like it's about maybe ten feet, maybe ten, twelve feet long...

'''MATT:''' Yeah, same with, like, in Peanuts. Like it's— it's just a wall that's independent, by itself, I don't know if it's dividing something from...

'''MIKE:''' Oh, look! It's Strong Sad's old mouth.

'''MATT:''' Oh, yeah. And his funny arms!

'''MIKE:''' ''{laughs}''

'''MATT:''' "The Decemberator 2000" is a great name for a Christmas tree. It's funny that we're making reference to The Yello Dello in this with Coach Z's dialogue, which now, I would, I wanna pretend The Yello Dello maybe never happened.

'''MIKE:''' ''{laughs}''

'''MATT:''' No, that's not true. I remember we wrote this, uh, a lot of this driving to and from Ashville visiting with... would that've been...

'''MIKE:''' "All The Real Girls"

'''MATT:''' Yeah, "All The Real Girls". So Marzipan is dressed up in this, like, Decemberween, y'know, attire. She's clearly in the spirit of things, yet she's going to protest it at the same time.

'''MIKE:''' ''{laughs}'' I don't think we've ever seen this wallpaper and that whole background.

'''MATT:''' And that lamp...

'''MIKE:''' Has that lamp shown up?

'''MATT:''' I don't think so.

'''MIKE:''' We usually just see Marzipan's red couch, or her blue couch, and, um, her "Thank You" painting.

'''MATT:''' Right. Oooh! Woosh. ''{wind noises}''

'''MIKE:''' I like that wind. I remember thinking that was ''solid''.

'''MATT:''' There's the old "Concessions by Bubs" sign! I didn't realize, so the rest of his concession stand is still the same. But just the sign is updated.

'''MIKE:''' Yeah.

'''MATT:''' I thought we did a whole overhaul. The inside, too. You can see the popcorn machine and microwave that he used to have in there.

'''MIKE:''' ''{laughs}''

'''MATT:''' Now he just has a couple shelves and a sno-cone machine. Is that about it?

'''MIKE:''' Yeah.

'''MATT:''' ''{regarding all the gifts that Homestar is throwing}'' Wait, Mike! These are all things that would be very appropriate for Strong Bad to have.

'''MIKE:''' It's just... and Strong Bad liking Frampton!

'''MATT:''' ''{laughs}'' That was short-lived!

'''MIKE:''' ''{laughs}'' ...short-lived!

'''MATT:''' It's like, "Well, if you happen to see this one part on our website, then maybe..."

'''MATT:''' There's another instance of The Cheat's head exploding. That seems to happen to him a lot.

'''MIKE:''' That's a nice little— we don't do little pans like that. Uh, camera moves.

'''MATT:''' Let's get into camera moves again, you and I.

'''MIKE:''' Let's give a high-five for 2007 being the year of the camera move.

'''MATT:''' That's right. It must be hard to be Homestar's friend or enemy, even, in this case. Yeah, I like that...

'''MIKE:''' Pom Pom's hat's cool.

'''MATT:''' Strong Bad shaking his head there looked pretty good with his like, his earmuffs moved in a little bit of 3-D, there. That was a pretty good take.

'''MIKE:''' I forgot about— look at the King of Town, the bottom of the King of Town's body!

'''MATT:''' It's clearly just an unfinished symbol!

'''MIKE:''' Yeah!

'''MATT:''' He should have a liner. The liner of his robe should go around the bottom there. That bunny has only one eye. That's because we traced the bitmap with Streamline, I think. Adobe Streamline.

'''MIKE:''' Oh. That's a useful— that's a program we use a lot these days. Do they still make Streamline?

'''MATT:''' I don't think so. I think we asked that at that FlashForward.

'''MIKE:''' Look! No arms!

'''MATT:''' ''{singing}'' No aaarrrmms!

'''MIKE:''' No arms! Come on, Matt! Put some arms on that guy!

'''MATT:''' Hey! ''You'' animated this whole end part! If I remember correctly. I made ''some'' of the individual clips of people... Bubs raising his arms...

'''MIKE:''' Why'd you think we could get away with things like...

'''MATT:''' We didn't notice! That's the thing! I don't think it was like, "I don't wanna put arms on him." It was just like, "Hey! Cartoon!"

'''MIKE:''' Did we just not know what the characters looked like, yet, or had it not been established that this guy has arms!

'''MATT:''' ''{laughs}''

'''MIKE:''' Every time!

'''MATT:''' ''{laughs}'' Yeah! ''{regarding "Coach Z's been drinking Listerine}'' Eww. Oh, Coach Z.

Quote of the Week

Iamdacheeze — Sun, 15 Jun 2008 17:07:09 GMT

Iamdacheeze:

[[Image:Quote Of Week Box Design All.PNG|thumb|The old, the new, the newer, and the loading.]]

The '''Quote of the Week''' is a sound bite from the [[Homestar Runner (body of work)|Homestar Runner]] body of work. These are found by clicking on the ''Q'' at the top of the [[Main Pages]], and are generally updated each week on Thursday. Here is a list of all Quotes of the Week collected since this feature started on January 10, 2002, under the name "Quote of the day". Since early 2004, the Quote of the Week was updated with more regularity. For some time before then, the quote of the week was a "[[Main Page Messages|what's new?]]" oval button. The dates of some quotes are estimated on the basis of the file-modified date.

:''For the July 29–November 11, 2004 quotes, the quote was only available as a .zip file. As of the November 22 quote, however, the download option appears to only be as a straight MP3, and The Brothers Chaps appear to be deleting each quote of the week as soon as the next one is released.''

:''Quotes after November 11, 2004 are transcribed on the website. Directly saving and opening the [[HR:qod.swf|Flash file]] produces some odd results; the standard Homestar image will appear along with a default message, as shown on the right.''

:''On July 27, 2006, a "loading" box was added for while the quote was loading, probably due to the unusual length of that day's quote. The following week, on August 3, 2006, the loading box was removed.''

==Fun Facts==
===Explanations===
*The September 27, 2007 quote mentions [[Wikipedia:Polychaete|polychaete worms]], a class of worms that are known for their bristles and marine environments.

===Trivia===
*In Bubs's quote from June 30th, 2005, "Check it out" was said 16 times.
*On December 21, 2006, only the Quote of the Week was updated; the Weekly Fanstuff and Sketchbook were not.
*Until August 9, 2007, the Quote of the Week of June 21, 2007 had not been updated for seven weeks, the longest hiatus between pop-up updates on record.

===Remarks===
*Occasionally, some quotes are used twice.
**Homsar's "I'm the human wedgie" quote was used twice. Although the two sound bites were identical, the text used in both cases was slightly different. (The first time it was "I'm" whereas the second was "AAAaaaAAh'm").
**Homestar's "The good times are over!" quote was also used twice, with spelling differences (lower-case letters instead of caps.) However, this probably was an accident or a placeholder, as it was changed the following day.
**Although it wasn't identical, Bubs had a line as well, "Everybody knows me. Mine name Cornbread.", that is very similar to "I got it-I got everything you wan know. Everybody know me, my name Cornbread."
**The Homestar Runner's quote had only one difference; there was a colon on March 31, 2005, while ellipses were used on November 30, 2006.
**The Sickly Sam quotes released on October 25, 2007, and September 22, 2005 were identical. However, the 2007 quote was changed within hours of being released. The quote it was changed to was suggested in the edit summary of [http://www.hrwiki.org/index.php?title=Quote_of_the_Week&diff=next&oldid=507707 the edit adding the Sickly Sam quote to this page].
*Strong Bad's quote from June 10th, 2005, was never featured on the site. Instead, it was said in "[[Where the Crap Are We?]]", which is an Easter egg in Macromedia Central.
*When using a [[Quote of the Week Character Heads|character head]] that hasn't been added yet, Homestar's head is used until the appropriate character's head is uploaded. This has happened several times.

===Goofs===
*February 9, 2006's quote calls the feature "Quote of the Day" rather than its typical name "Quote of the Week".
*The May 4, 2006 quote spelled the name of Strong Bad's [[Strong Bad's Ladies|imaginary girlfriend]] as "Delelilia". However, in [[senior prom]], her name was spelled "Delilelia".
*The November 17, 2006 quote is titled as an "outtake" in the [[Wikipedia:ID3|ID3]] tag. The quote may have originally been an outtake, then added to the toon as an Easter Egg.
*In the January 31, 2008 quote, "carrageenan" is misspelled "carageenan".
*In the March 13, 2008 quote, the "The" in The Cheat's name is not capitalized, and there is no comma after "blows". "Blowhole" is also misspelled as two words.

===Inside References===
*If there is a problem finding the [[Secret Pages XML Source#Weeklies XML File|weeklies XML file]], the text (which has no sound) is Homestar saying:<blockquote>"Oh Haldo! This is my funniest word style ever times that I've said! Hope all is on to it even more lately! And I wish the chicken & msg place was open on Somedays"</blockquote>
**This makes references to [[Peasant's Quest]] ([[Unusual Greetings#Haldo|Haldo]]), [[for kids]] ([[all is on]]), [[Teen Girl Squad Issue 3]] (MSG), and [[monster truck]] (Somedays).
*Formerly, the text was:<blockquote>"Oh Hello! This is my funniest word style ever that I said! Hope you're into it!"</blockquote>

===Real-World References===
*Strong Sad's quote about tai chi may be a nod to The Simpsons episode "[http://www.snpp.com/episodes/BABF22 HOMЯ]", which had a similar tai chi/chai tea gag.
*In the June 29, 2006 quote, "Circle gets the square" is a reference to the game show [[Wikipedia:Hollywood Squares|Hollywood Squares]], which is based on tic-tac-toe; the accompanying phrase is "X gets the square." [[Wikipedia:Shadoe Stevens|Shadoe Stevens]] was the announcer for two incarnations of the show (the John Davidson and Tom Bergeron-hosted versions), and occupied a square on the Davidson version.
*The December 14, 2006 quote mentions "Montelbon", probably a reference to [[Wikipedia:Ricardo Montalbán|Ricardo Montalbán]].
*In the August 9, 2007 quote, Bubs spells [[Wikipedia:Nestle|Nestles]], a Swiss maker of candy and other food products. It's a reference to Nestle's [http://www.archive.org/download/RadioCommercialsShows/Commercials.19xx.xx.xx_N_E_S_T_L_E_S.mp3 long standing jingle], "N-E-S-T-L-E-S, Nestle's makes the very best", especially its Alpine White version from the '80s, "Sweet dreams you can't resist. N-E-S-T-L-E-S."
*The September 13, 2007 quote references [[Wikipedia:Frosty|Frosties]] and [[Wikipedia:McFlurry|McFlurries]], ice cream treats served at [[Wikipedia:Wendy's|Wendy's]] and [[Wikipedia:McDonald's|McDonald's]], respectively.

[[Everything Else, Volume 1]] contains a different version of this song.

== Fun Facts ==
*The "Bad Jokes" in the song reference the following jokes:
**'''A:''' Why did the chicken cross the road? '''B:''' I don't know, why? '''A:''' To get to the other side!
**'''A:''' Why did the ''{any animal}'' cross the road? '''B:''' I don't know, why? '''A:''' Because it was stapled to the chicken!
**'''A:''' What did zero say to eight? '''B:''' I don't know, what? '''A:''' "Nice belt."
*The extra jokes referenced in the DVD version are vague.
**"Some people walk into a bar..." references "bar jokes", which can range broadly.
**"Somethin' happens... And all three of different ethnic backgrounds... Maybe religious backgrounds..." references an overused setup for an ethnic/religious joke, often where all three get one wish.
**"Knock knock... Who's there?" references [[Wikipedia:Knock-knock joke|cock jokes]], which can also range broadly.
*This is the first puppet toon in which [[The Cheat]] does not appear.

The ones you've heard a million times, 
The kind of jokes that little kids tell ya, 
Why was I stapled to the chicken? 
I don't know man, 
I wasn't raped to any chicken!

'''FLANSBURGH:''' ''{yells}'' Nice belt!

'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' Nice belt man! 
Bad jokes, 
Bad bad jokes, 
Uh!

''{They stop playing and singing.}''

'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' Solid! That's pretty good, guys. Layin' it down back there.

'''BELLER:''' Nice belt!

'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' On the skins— ''{floor tom hit interrupts his train of thought}'' I— ''{floor tom hit}''

'''BELLER:''' ''{whispers}'' Nice fucking belt!

'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' ''{whispers to himself}'' Nice belt...? ''{to Beller}'' ...Shit!
