Cunk on Christmas/扯蛋圣诞史

Just like the Spring Festival, Christmas is a most important festival for the western countries or I can say all over the world.

Just like "Cunk on Shakespeare", this special TV program exploring the history of Christmas is actually a funny destruction of Christmas. The lady host, pretending herself to be totally ignorant, watched the experts and innocent interviewees trying to deal with her weird questions. Yet, her exploration actually exposed another side of the truth of Christmas: it actually goes more with business than religion nowadays.

The closing observations are a good example of the sharp edge it has too – the girl host talks about how we are encouraged to feel sorry for those people alone at Christmas, but now that's all of us and its brilliant.
