Who's ready for their very first animated holiday special?

Ooh! Wait for me. I love having other kids around.
NARRATOR (on TV): This year's rerun of
There's a Holiday for Everyone
is brought to you by...
Mom's Old Fashioned Blood Remover.
Now in oatmeal spice.
And that holiday is Xmas.
(kids cheering, laughing)
KWANZAABOT: Hey, kids, any chance
y'all wanna remix this holiday special,
and hear the dope story of Kwanzaabot instead?
Or your favorite goofy golem, Chanukah Zombie?
No! Tell us about Santa!
Again?
Yes! Every year!
- (Kwanzaabot sighs) - Oy...
(whimsical music playing)
The ancient tradition of Xmas
began in the year 2801,
when the Friendly Robot Company
developed a high-powered mechanical Santa
capable of delivering over five mega-presents per second.
(popping)
- (glass shattering) - Hey...
KWANZAABOT: They tricked him out with
a pair of carbon-fiber Tims
and a chrome naughty-nice sensor.
CHANUKAH ZOMBIE: So he'd know who deserved gifts
and who deserved brutal punishment.
Yo, that might've been the first mistake right there.
- (sleigh bells jingling) - But on Santa's very first delivery,
something went tragically meshuggenah.
- (creaking) - His naughty-nice sensor
malfunctioned.
Man, that's some bleeped-up (klaxon).
(sleigh bells jingle)
Yay! Santa's here!
- (gunfire) - (people screaming)
Oh! Oh my! (grunting)
- (video stops) - Oh, thank you.
I'm sorry, kids.
I never wanted you to know Santa was real.
(somber music playing)
(hammering)
Yuletide news, everyone!
I know how to fix Santa!
(incredulous chatter)
I just need to sneak up on him
and reverse the polarity of his naughty-nice sensor.
But Santa is always on guard against attacks. Just like me.
- Hii-yah! - Ow!
You'll never be able to sneak up on him.
Not through space, no,
but through time, probably.
You see, Santa is only prepared for an attack from the present.
So I've been souping up my old time machine.
Where is it?
The question is when is it?
And the answer is right about...
now!
(impressed chatter)
It's so amazing.
I don't even care that it's on my foot.
(cracking)
I've installed a manual transmission
with a reverse gear,
so it can now go backward in time
as well as forward.
- (unlocks car) - Hooray-- (grunts)
My plan is to back up to the year 2801,
when things first went wrong,
and materialize behind Santa
as he exits this very fireplace.
Did this building even exist in 2801?
Yeah, but back then, it was some kinda meat market,
where butchers would hook up and grind their sausages.
Yes, anyway, once there,
I'll quickly reverse the polarity
of Santa's naughty-nice sensor, then return to the present.
Problem solved.
Um, Professor, isn't it risky to go back in time
and change history?
Oh my, yes.
But I'll go alone to minimize the chance
of anyone becoming their own grandfather.
- These things happen. - No, they don't.
Next time you see me, Santa will have been good again!
Ta-ta!
