Catskills lodge - children under 90 admitted free

Farnsworth is wearing special sunglasses the same thickness as his regular specs

Bender is son #1729

Bender has a very long fold-out card

Bender goes to help at 'Our Motherboard of Mercy Liquor Kitchen'

there is a 'Booze Saves' poster on the wall of the shelter

Fry visits 'Joes Ark Pet store - Formerly Noahs Ark Shoe Store'

On sale in the pet store is one of Matt Groening's other creations - Binky, from his cartoon strip 'Life in Hell'

There is a 'Snake Grab Bag' in the pet store

The sign on the door that leads out to the ledge says 'Dangerous Ledge - No Banana Peels'

8:57pm is the time they all settle down to a sing song

When Zoidberg walks up to do 'the apology dance' his glass that he's holding disappears before he starts

Santa's stomach shouldn't be able to swell like that, he's made of metal

At one moment they're all seated at the table, then the next view Hermes and Farnsworth are round the piano

During the view of Fry singing the last line of the Christmas song Farnsworth is to the right. Then the camera cuts to a further out view and he walks in from the left
