Simpsons Alternative UK Christmas Message (2004)

This 157 second animated short was specially commissioned by Britain's Channel 4 as part of their acclaimed annual satirical "Alternative Christmas Message". It aired on December 25, 2004 at 3 PM London time (15:00 UTC) in part to celebrate Channel 4's newly acquired rights to The Simpsons. More importantly, it competed with the British Sovereign's annual Royal Christmas Message, which was broadcast on rival networks ITV and BBC at the same time. The show humorously purports to be breaking the fourth wall to present the Simpson family as speakers in a live studio format, similar to Marge's audience request prior to the story segments in several Treehouse of Horror episodes. Marge attempts to stick to her pre-scripted speech about British subjects whilst predictably the chaos of the Simpson family ensues.
