#remember when ppl thought scrooges hatred of santa was based in scotlands history of banning christmas? wouldve been educational and neat

Why don't you like Scrooge/Santa?

Hard for me to enjoy the ship when the episode was so disappointing lol characterization was a mess next to episodes like split sword (though tbf the end of s3 was a mess when it comes to scrooge) and we just spent 20 min watching scrooge bully a lonely gay bear whose been obsessed with him since their 19-day fling

goldie and scrooge is fun because it's mutual and they're both mean and grumpy but santa is literally the nicest person on earth and scrooge has spent 100+ years treating him like a leper. Its not cute

i think the santa hatred was better left unexplained. it was a lot more fun then since everyone's headcanons for what happened were so much more interesting than what we were given. and it would've been nice to have some followup of Last Christmas with a Donald and Della christmas storyline instead since LC was such a solid emotional ep. Maybe with huey as the centric child instead of dewey this time??? Could've been a nice family ep another great opportunity to bring up Hortense and Quackmore yknow. There were a lot of things they could've done with the family and no one would've minded that the Santa hatred was unexplained cuz it was so funny to theorize

Like I said it was just disappointing all around so I can't enjoy it. But I'm also someone who doesn't like Christmas episodes that are about the "Spirit of Christmas" cuz I'm Jewish and I don't care. I like Christmas eps that are about family and love and togetherness and loneliness cause it makes for a much more entertaining story that reaches a wider audience
