While the townsfolk are ticked off with Santa for the booze ordinance, he’s not exactly in danger of being canceled either. Hankey or Al Gore, some of the better installments in recent seasons have been South Park revisiting problematic areas with the help of a guest character. In an uneven season, which was salvaged with three straight worthy entries, the finale prioritized story structure, yet still had time for plenty of silly fun along the way. I got so used to strong first acts falling apart, that it was a holiday treat to see each story beat build on top of each other like LEGO blocks in this episode. Hanging the intro on drunk driving feels like an odd choice at first, but the episode blossoms fairly organically into a storyline that served both the season’s “episodic” continuity and the long history of the series. “Christmas Snow” flips the problems of season 23 on their head. When has a rational person telling these citizens what to do ever gone well? Santa’s PSA leads to a brutal montage of the townsfolk wrapping their cars around poles and flattening children and small animals.
It leads to increased drunk driving, and Santa makes a plea for moderation.

Already a town full of drunks, South Park ups its alcohol consumption to cope with the stresses of the holiday season. The South Park season 23 finale, “Christmas Snow,” sees Santa fighting the town not with his fists-Lord knows this version of Santa never shies away from a good fight-but in a battle of bureaucracy, red tape, and prohibition in a rather joyous special episode.
