But for Christmas shows, we end up grading on a curve anyway. So how does it hold up there?
Well, it does manage to squeak a tiny bit of heartwarming out at the end of episode one.
It's a lot more standalone than watching the Christmas episode of any full series.
If you're super jonesing for another Christmas special to watch, I guess you could throw it on the pile.
I can't really recommend it on its merits, but if you're watching weak shows because of a Christmas theme, it's at least different than the classics.
