Johnny has to take over for Santa Claus after he accidentally breaks his arm, thinking he was a burglar breaking into his house.
!!Tropes:
* AnswerCut: When Johnny asks where “that freak with the big glowin’ nose” is, [[BigLippedAlligatorMoment Rudolph is shown fighting off The Grinch’s soldiers who are shooting at him with laser guns]].
* BadassSanta: Santa tells Johnny “I’ll bust your fat head” if he doesn’t do the right thing and deliver the rest of the presents to all the good little boys and girls of the world. He also gives Johnny boxing gloves and a mouth guard so they can duke it out again next year.
* TheCameo: [[Franchise/ScoobyDoo Scooby Doo]] makes an appearance in this episode. His Christmas gift is a coupon for 10 weeks of “[[SpeechImpediment Sthpeetch Therapy]]”.
* ChimneyEntry: Santa Johnny enters Little Suzy’s house this way.
* ChristmasEpisode: When Johnny thinks someone is breaking into his house, he accidentally injures Santa and has to fill in for him on Christmas Eve.
* CirclingBirdies: After Santa gets knocked out by Johnny, a bunch of green elves can be seen circling his head.
* ClothesForChristmasCringe: Subverted. The Mayor of Aron City is actually quite pleased with the new underwear he got from Santa Johnny.
-->'''Narrator:''' To the Mayor of Aron City, a new pair of shorts, so he’s wearing clean undies when he robs and cavorts.
* CorruptPolitician: On Santa’s list, it’s shown that almost every senator listed is getting coal.
* DasherDancerPrancerAndNixon:
-->'''Johnny:''' On Yeltzen! On Nixon! On...Stinky? On Rose! On - hey, where’s that freak with the big glowin’ nose?
* FreezeFrameBonus: While Johnny is delivering gifts, a sign can be seen that says “[[Franchise/{{Batman}} Gotham]] 14 Miles”.
* FullMoonSilhouette: When Johnny drives Santa’s sleigh past the full Christmas Eve moon.
* HitFlash: An explosion of different colors and shapes is shown when Johnny karate kicks Santa in the face.
* InjuredLimbEpisode: Johnny accidentally breaks Santa’s arm, which prevents him from being able to deliver the rest of his gifts.
* MistakenForCheating: The Mayor’s wife thinks he’s cheating on her because Santa Johnny accidentally delivered his mom’s gift to her, which was a fur coat with Bunny’s name on it.
* NiceJobBreakingItHero: Johnny, being the idiot that he is, sees Santa with his bag of toys, classic outfit, and sleigh pulled by flying reindeer and STILL thinks he’s a burglar. Because of this case of MistakenIdentity, Johnny incapacitates the poor man and has to fill in for him before Christmas is ruined.
* TheParodyBeforeChristmas: It’s even a RhymingEpisode to reflect this reference.
* RollingPinOfDoom: The Mayor’s wife hits him on the head with a rolling pin when she hears that he’s still out “cavorting”. And then again when she thinks he’s cheating on her with Bunny Bravo.
* SavingChristmas: Johnny does indeed save Christmas by delivering all the presents for Santa before the end of the night. Of course, he was the one who endangered it in the first place.
* ShoutOut:
** One of the names listed on the nice list was "Sen. Puffnstuff". This is a reference to the character from the children's show, ''[[Series/HRPufnstuf H.R. Pufnstuf]]''.
** Johnny addresses King Raymond as "Magilla", in reference to the Hanna-Barbera character, ''[[WesternAnimation/MagillaGorilla Magilla Gorilla]]''.
** Scooby-Doo's speech therapist is listed as "Cindy Brady", a character from the famous TV show, ''[[Series/TheBradyBunch The Brady Bunch]]'', who also had a lisp.
* SpecialGuest: [[Creator/AdamWest Adam West]] narrates this episode.
* SubbingForSanta: It’s only right that Johnny steps in for Santa on Christmas Eve, considering it’s his fault that Santa’s arm is broken in the first place.
* TakeThat: When Bunny falls asleep watching ''[[Film/ItsAWonderfulLife It's a Wonderful Life]]'', the narrator remarks that after being played four times already that day, Jimmy Stewart gets boring.
* WorldTour: Fittingly, Johnny travels all over the world in this episode in order to deliver gifts for Santa.
