In 2003, when "The Sopranos" was having a gap year and shows like "Six Feet Under," "The Wire" and "The Shield" defined our perception of quality TV, a Fox teen drama that debuted in August introduced "the greatest super holiday known to mankind": Chrismukkah. It's a portmanteau that rolls off the tongue with the sweetness of a kosher marshmallow.
Twenty years later, Chrismukkah, which "The O.C." gifted us in the first season episode "The Best Chrismukkah Ever," is a part of the pop culture lexicon, regardless of whether you know its origin story. Ultimately, we know that we're talking about blending Hanukkah with Christmas.
