I laughed so hard I was afraid my wife was going to have to call 911 for me. The opening sequence with Charlie singing dirty Christmas carols was hysterical. Berta's making eggnog was priceless. And when Charlie found out the family secret I was holding my sides. This is a don't miss episode. Brian Stills ogling of Kandi is a scream. This is one of the funniest Christmas shows ever aired. What is supposed to be a big night for Charlie turns into a farce of the grand scale. Try not to miss this one in reruns. The entire cast goes the extra mile in this one. This is one of the best Christmas presents from a comedy ever. The writers of this show are in rare form in this episode. They are always good but this is exceptional.

Usually the obligatory episodes of most sitcoms are mediocre at best, with a few exceptions. This is one of them.
No real spoilers here. You have to love Herb's reaction when he see's Kandi.
Berta's interesting hints to improve her Christmas bonus was priceless.
Lots of laughs as more people keep showing up at Charlie's place.
Very Highly recommended.

.. Christmas episodes can get maudlin, with too much sentimentality, but this is "Two & a half men" we're dealing with.
There's alcohol, cheap sex (and possible incest), family dysfunction all present & accounted for. Charlie's attempt for a Christmas eve hookup may be the main storyline, but it's the supporting cast that shines, From Ryan Styles ogling the gorgeous dimwit Kandi (who also sings Christmas carols) to Jake getting hammered on eggnog, and of course Berta gleefuly watching it all, it's a top 3 episode for season 4 (which is saying something) and a top 5 for the whole series.

THE HERB MEISTER!!

HERB IS MY FAVORITE CHARACHTER IN THE SHOW WITH OF COURSE CHARLIE "THE MASHEEN JUST WISH THE SHOW WAS ON WITH NEW EPISODES WITH CHARLIE!! IT WAS IN FACT HIS LIFESTYLE THEY MODELED THE SHOW AROUND!! I THINK BERTA'S CHARACHTER WAS FUNNY TOO AT TIMES & I LOVED ROSE TOO SHE WAS SO CUTE!! & HOW CAN I FORGET THE BEST PHARMACIST IN THE WORLD RUSSELL!! I ALSO THOUGHT THAT CHARLIE'S JINGLES WERE REALLY COOL!! I WATCHED 1 OR TWO EPISODES WITH ASHTON KUTCHER IN THEM BUT I JUST REALLY COULD NOT GET INTO HIM INSTEAD OF CHARLIE!! I THINK SOME OF HERB'S FACES & REACTIONS ARE PRICELESS!! ESPECIALLY IN THE EPISODE SKUNK,DOGCRAP,AND KETCHUP! & THE EPISODE WHEN CHARLIE SAYS "UNDER THE DINING ROOM TABLE BY RICHARD GOBBLER" LOVE THE SHOW SORRY TO SE IT GO!!
