"LazyTown's Surprise Santa" is the first Christmas episode of the Nick Jr. series, LazyTown, aired in the show's first season. It's Christmas in LazyTown, and everyone's having a Christmas party at Stephanie's house as Robbie Rotten spies on them. He says that he wouldn't go to their party if they invite him. He then gets an idea to sabotage their Christmas party by throwing a big snowball at them. When the clock strikes six on the cannon, it'll blast a giant snowball to throw at Milford's window and knock Sportacus out. Robbie dresses up as Santa Claus and begins singing "Good to Be Bad". Meanwhile, the kids begin having fun in the snow and enjoying Christmas by singing "I Love Christmas". Sportacus decides to help Stephanie build a snowman, and so does Ziggy, but he messes up the head by accident. (more)
