"Hairy Christmas" is the Christmas episode of the Disney Channel animated series American Dragon: Jake Long. It premiered as the sixteenth episode of the show's second season (though it is the season's seventh episode in production order). On Christmas Eve, Fu Dog tells the story of two magical creatures who are not having a jolly holiday: a baby sasquatch who was separated from its family, and Jake Long, who is fed up with his family's embarrassing holiday traditions. During this time, the sasquatch accidentally gets not only the public's attention, but Rotwood's, who decides to capture it. Jake's parents take Jake and Haley to the mall where Brad sees Jake on Santa's lap. Overwhelmed with embarrassment, Jake tells his family that all he wants for Christmas is to be free from "his family and their whack traditions". Spud tells Jake about the sasquatch and Jake runs outside to find it, but he is confronted by 88 and 89, who comically chase the sasquatch but only succeed in getting hurt. Jake, Trixie, and Spud follow the sasquatch back to the mall where Jake confronts his parents once again, but he goes back to the chase. Little do they know, 88 and 89 are also at the mall looking for a present for the Huntsman and 88 can't decide between a stuffed bunny and an Easy Bake Oven until they see the sasquatch. (more)
