You probably didn't know 'It's A Wonderful Life' was originally created as a Chanukah film.



Not overly funny, but it's appropriate in a Christmas episode, I suppose.

This is Andy's second appearance as Moishe Samberg. The first was on 05.09.2009. This factoid is actually more amusing to me than the skit itself (although the first skit was hilarious). So they purposefully put Moishe Samberg in the credits of this skit playing himself. Then they made him older, figuring if the original Moishe immigrant came to the United States and got old, then he'd be the appropriate age to star in this film. What a nice hidden Easter Egg for Christmas! =^)

Enjoy!
