Fans think Season 1 has the best Christmas episode

Over the course of eight seasons, "That '70s Show" managed to pump out five Christmas episodes, and two Thanksgiving themed specials. When time comes from the annual Holiday special binge with loved ones, it can be difficult to find the perfect "'70s Show" episode that perfectly encapsulates the Christmas spirit. In a Reddit poll (https://www.reddit.com/poll/nnk4g2?utm_source=reddit&utm_medium=usertext&utm_name=That70sshow&utm_content=t3_nnk4g2) posted on the show's fan subreddit, user u/hi_i_am_kai (https://www.reddit.com/user/hi_i_am_kai) asked fellow fans to vote on the best Christmas episode. Taking the champion title with 135 votes is Episode 12 from Season 1, titled "The Best Christmas Ever." (https://www.imdb.com/title/tt0720179/)

The episode follows Eric (Topher Grace (https://www.looper.com/1122620/that-70s-shows-topher-grace-will-never-stop-apologizing-to-kurtwood-smith-and-debra-jo-rupp/)) trying to throw a party in the basement, which leads to hilarious results with a spiked punch bowl, courtesy of Laurie (Lisa Robin Kelly). "Not to be cliché but season 1's is the best to me," wrote user u/youguys_lookFabulous (https://www.reddit.com/r/That70sshow/comments/nnk4g2/what_is_your_favourite_christmas_episode_of_that/gzuvmza/). Similar sentiments were echoed by u/evad4009 (https://www.reddit.com/r/That70sshow/comments/nnk4g2/what_is_your_favourite_christmas_episode_of_that/gzuw718/), who pointed out how "Season 1's [episode] had the feeling of having 2 types of Christmas one up with the adults and in the basement with the friends which is cool."

"The Best Christmas Ever" notably features one of the most memorable moments from the show, at least to star Ashton Kutcher. While speaking om the 100th Episode Special for "That '70s Show," (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gte91pxG6Qg&t=1578s&ab_channel=JoJo) the Kelso actor noted how he injured himself while jumping over a couch, trying to speak to Laurie. "My heels hit the edge of the couch and I slipped off and took it right in the shins with the table," the actor said. The live audience found Kutcher's injury so hilarious that it was kept in the episode. Talk about a memorable Christmas!
