What happens when Status Quo Is God smashes into a Christmas Episode. Perhaps no one ever goes to church or mentions a deity the rest of the year, but every now and again, around Christmas, our heroes will be shown the True Meaning of Christmas (it's never presents - well, not usually) and caring, and realize just how lucky they really are. They may even go to a Christmas service, probably midnight mass on Christmas Eve. At the very least, they attempt to be kinder and more charitable toward those around them, embrace the brotherhood of man, and so forth.

Next week: back to the usual whining, angst, arguments, adultery, and code-breaking. Common plotlines are the "Gift of the Magi" Plot, Yet Another Christmas Carol, Away in a Manger. But then again, perhaps You Mean "Xmas". The title of this trope is taken from the Band Aid song, "Do They Know It's Christmas?" Compare and contrast with Santa Clausmas, Did I Mention It's Christmas? and Soapland Christmas. Examples of Do They Know It's Christmas Time? include:
