Finally! Thank you for posting this under your channel. Adult swim has held this hostage for too long! And if it makes you feel any better, it's December 21st and I still don't have a tree. My life is falling apart
It's okay to not have a tree up still, you're not the only one who's having an "off" holiday season (I know I am). You'll make it through this, friend ❤️🫂
We live in a world where everything is shrouded in a protective layer of irony. Joe is perhaps the only comedian committed to complete sincerity and it gives me hope.
My paternal grandmother passed today. I lived with her as a teen and as an adult Joe Pera talks with you has been a massive comfort and spoke to a lot of weird idiosyncrasies I had picked up by being raised in massive parts by two beautiful loving members of the silent generation. The entirety of this show feels like a hug and the last episode never ceases to make me cry as Abide with Me plays out of its earnity idk what it is. The last five years have been a hard albeit gentle succumbing to dementia and later alzhiemers but the wit, humor, and clarity of certain things of that generation or maybe just grandmas have,I can hear echo out of Nana and her friends and everything to the furniture and music have helped make me feel at home in my adulthood while I try to make one best as I can by what they taught me. I'm grateful to have been my Tita's grandchild and thank you Joe Pera for painting a portrait that beautifully depicts that unconditional love and grief in a really human and soft way. Watching this before bed was a treat after a really hard day thank you. It's the darkest night of the year and from here it gets lighter.❤ 12.21.41-12.21.23
I'm so sorry for your loss. I just lost my cousin on the 19th, only 5 days away from his 37th birthday... it's been a doozie for sure but watching this was really comforting. Sending lots of warm wishes and hopes for many blessings in the new year to you, and to YOU as well, dear reader.
I hate that Adult Swim canceled your show. This video helped get your show picked up by them. Also, thus video is still one of my favorites and I'm said that we will never get to see what Joe and Sarah were going to do with the lot that Joe bought with the money from selling his Nana's house. Thinking of that made me think of my own grandma that had passed from cancer that she had everywhere. But anyway, I hope you and your extended family will have/had a great holiday this year Joe. And I like your soothing voice and how funny you can be. I hope to see one of your shows sometime in the future, when you come to Denver again Update: Never seen the full video until now and I like the changes that was made in the show from the things in this video
Thank you Joe!! I know the chances may be slim, but a ton of us would love a blu-ray set of the show so we don’t have to worry about it going away or into the Adult Swim vault. I know that’s probably not something you have a lot of control over, but maybe if enough of us make enough noise it could persuade the powers that be? Merry Christmas!
We had Rudolph, frosty the snowman, Charlie Brown, Die Hard, The Hobbit, an unexpected journey. Now we have “Joe Pera’s finding the perfect Christmas tree” to add to our list of Christmas classics! Thanks Joe!
IT'S BACK BABY. This has become a yearly tradition in our household, and I find myself singing "Snow Snow Snow" and "Snow Snow Snow Snow" for weeks afterward.
I never watched Joe Pera until Adult Swim’s Christmas compilation, like, this week. I think I’m in love. Also, I’ve had Snow Snow Snow stuck in my head for days.
Thank you so much Joe, this one has become hard to find and it's nice to view it legally instead of having to rely on the file a guy sent me once, which is perfectly fine but when it comes to your stuff, I would rather watch it legitimately. I really hope you are able to get this and the entire series on DVD or (preferably) Blu Ray someday!
You really are a true artist, Joe Pera. Theres something very inspiring about the shows you create. I really hated that your show on adult swim ended, all we can do now is appreciete what you were able to create. Thanks for being cool.
Seeing this for the first time after all these years I've seen promos for this Christmas special, it makes me appreciate how things are and how it can always get better, that's what I felt from watching your show, thank you Mr Pera
I think I felt something from that like a sense of belonging the sense of it gets tough for everybody around the holidays trying to find the perfect tree for Christmas but we can find meaning and joy, no matter our differences on this beautiful little planet we call home.
The multiple ads make it impossible to fall asleep with this video. I understand one ad at the start. You make great content. Please take this into consideration.
Man those other people don’t know how cool it would be to spend time with Joe Pera. I love it when you talk to us Joe, please keep it up man you make this world a little better with your videos honestly
Your demeanor and mannerisms make you the most wholesome man I've ever seen & heard. I cant explain why but it makes me want to be extra nice to you and defend you from any harm
I’m so glad that you uploaded this to RU-vid for all to see, as I can’t seem to find it anywhere else. While visiting family for the holiday, this came on after an airing of _Willy Wonka and the Chocolate Factory_ so I recorded and watched it with my Mom and it started a nice, lengthy conversation about pine trees. Then I accidentally deleted the recording. Thank you, Joe Pera. And merry belated Christmas!
Thank you for re-uploading this Joe. I love to watch this every year with my family. Your show holds a special place in my heart and invokes feelings I can't find anywhere else.
Thank you Joe. While fast-paced, this video helped me to select my annual tree. I picked white pine because I like its ambitious needles. Happy nonspecific holiday.
Thank you Joe. I've been looking for this ever since I found out about it this year. I was going to rent it on youtube or amazon, but you saved me a couple of dollars.
Vital piece of Americana. Belongs in The Smithsonian, right between Archie Bunker's La-Z-Boy and Bing Crosby's smoking jacket. Love you, Joe. Merry Christmas man and thanks for sharing. Have a warm apple night.
YES! I miss this show like my cat that just passed away she was 20 years old and the best thing in the world. Now I cry randomly in public. Also I love that Mike's and his family are still around, absolutely love that actor.
If Joe Pera reads this I just want him to know he is a great example of how to have peace in your life. Wish more people could be like him. And he lets kids drink red bull in class
I didn’t get to put up a tree this year, in fact for most of my life my family had an artificial tree. But that was okay with me because I could still decorate it with my family with a cup of hot cocoa. I think that’s the important part of a Christmas tree in the end: it’s what you do with the tree itself that counts. Either way, I’d probably go with a pine tree if I had to choose one. I hope you found the right tree this year and I wish we all could have helped you find it on Adult Swim where you truly belong. I’m sorry they couldn’t see that. Merry Christmas Joe :)
I really wish all Christmas programs are this sweet... True sweetness, not like an artificial sweetener. This feels like Charlie Brown's Christmas. Thank you.
finding a christmas tree has been a difficult concept for me to understand but visualizing my life as a former michigan state field goal kicker who briefly dated sheryl made it click thank you!
8:37 Ladies and gentleman..."Rivers Gene". Aka "Christmas Gene". Aka "Original Gene" (The OG). OMG THANK YOU FOR POSTING THIS, JOE. I CAN'T TELL YOU HOW MUCH I'VE MISSED THIS SINCE THE GENIUSES AT ADULT SWIM TOOK IT DOWN... It's all I wanted for Christmas from the internet. ❤ 🎄🎁 21:51 possibly the realest outro of all time. Persona or no persona... Joe is a real one. Merry Christmas to all.
Never seen this before, and what a joy it was to view it for the first time tonight. Will be watching it many more times in the future. Thanks for your loveliness, Joe.
I had a streamer friend of mine who has passed away. He was one of the most incredible friends whom I never had the privilege to meet in real life. We use to watch this every year as a tradition. I am watching it in your honor tonight friend. I miss you Dr. Ezekiel !
This is the first episode I've ever watched of JPTwY, and it made me cry 😭 I created an animation inspired by this episode on my animation channel! "Joe Pera Shows Me the Meaning of Christmas Spirit," just a group of kids doing something nice for their teacher for the holidays💕 Thank you, Joe!
Thank youuu! every year i was looking for this one, finding one web where i can watch it, had to create uk adress account, change time zone, get uk vpn, now i can finally watch it without doing all those acts, thank you Joe Pera
Hey Joe, love your videos and especially this special! I watch this every year as a Christmas tradition. Sadly I had to buy an artificial tree, but next year I’ll be buying a real tree and hopefully getting a field goal of a tree!
