IT'S CHRISTMAS, or I mean, basically. It's also TVgasm Tuesday, and since this is the last Tuesday before Christmas, I'm gonna give you enough TV news to tide you over for two whole weeks instead of just one.

We had one and a half finales this week: How I Met Your Mother had its two-part midseason finale, which somehow managed to answer questions without actually answering them, AND after six well-dressed seasons of emotional glaring, Gossip Girl had her series finale, finishing up with $3000 lace handkerchiefs and a surprise twist.

Also, when I think of "comedy," I totally think of Barbra Streisand yelling at Seth Rogen for several hours in a car, so when I heard about their new movie I thought "Oh of course, somebody finally made this, just in time for the world to end!" Let's face our imminent doom with TVgasm!

This Week:

Probably the best thing about the Internet is the comments section. The comments section of ANYTHING. There's always one person posting a chain letter (what is this AIM in 2004?!), and, of course, there's the always-immortal-and-ever-articulate "Wow. just wow." TVgasm's comments are just as lively: Click to read the best of 2012!

Did you stop by the TVgasm holiday party? You didn't?! It was THE social event of the season! There was boxed wine! There were miscellaneous housewives! There was even a wild Lohan sighting! Click here to get the scoop on this totally awesome party that totally happened and was real.

At a certain time, one just gets tired of denim shirts and puns, am I right? Obviously, I'm referring to Jay Leno, because I just can't bring myself to watch his show anymore. Maybe 2014 will bring a good host to the Jay Leno time slot? Click to find out who may be replacing Leno in a few years (that is, if we don't all die in 3 days, thanks Mayans).

Remember: If you're commenting on something online, let's try at least to keep it interesting. Can we put a moratorium on the "Wow. just wow" forever?

I am a big fan of Christmas music. Some people can't stand it: it's irritating, it's ubiquitous, it's lame. I mean, if you hear the same tune over and over in a Macy's as you fight off blood-thirsty shoppers, any song can get annoying. I get it.

So you know what I did? I created an EXCELLENT Christmas playlist for you. It has the absolute staples, as well as some "more off the beaten path" tunes--you know, some songs that you might not hear a hundred times on the radio.  99 percent of these are all genuinely good songs. Sure, these are typical Christmas/holiday season songs, but more than that--this playlist is just some damn good music.

The playlist is a SUREFIRE HIT so don't be afraid put it on shuffle at a holiday party, or just, you know... vibe out on it to get you in the spirit of things! When I picture myself listening to this playlist, I'm in front of a fire and a Christmas tree, casually sipping a martini and wearing an over-priced-yet-typically-festive sweater, surrounded by friends and family having amazing conversation as the music fills the air! It really IS the most wonderful time of the year!

The time is upon us!  And I'm not talking about the end of the world this Friday or the possibility that the Giants might not make the playoffs this year.  No, it's the time of year when you're kinda screwed if you haven't completed your holiday shopping!

"Oh no, DannyMoney, oh no!  I haven't completed my holiday shopping yet!  My life is in disarray!  What to get Aunt Martha?  What to give little Jimmy Lou?  Oh what shall I get dear Uncle Oscar?"  Please, please - be calm!  I am here to help: simply visit the District Lines My Damn Channel merch store!  There you can get a bevy of goodies like DailyGrace t-shirts and shot glasses, as well as McMayhem and Co-op of the Damned t-shirts.

Yes, those are all great gifts!  Yes, I saved your Christmas!  Yes, you should buy me a My Damn Channel classic tee as thanks for helping you not make a fool of yourself at the family Christmas party when you would have become hammered from the spiked egg nog, since your need to self-medicate would be fueled by a deep, dark depression that arrived just as your loved ones opened your gifts, which would have been nothing but used tissues and old hamster food.  

So, go get some awesome merch!  And follow me: @DannyMoney

Everyone loves the holidays (specifically Christmas) and you know why? Family, food, holiday cheer… and PRESENTS!!! Here's some ideas for what to get your family members.

Mom: Buy her that compact disc she asked you for specifically. Seriously, do that, I know it's not a surprise but it's way easier and she'll appreciate it way more. Trust me.

Dad: Golf Balls with the Buffalo Bills logo (or his favorite sports team) on them.

Sister: Which season of Dawson's Creek just came out on DVD? Get her that one.

Grandma: Nothing, she'll be annoyed and tell you that you didn't need to get her anything. She will then proceed to return the gift and give you the money in the form of a gift card to wherever she returned it.

Grandpa: Something to do with airplanes.

Cousins: How much do you care for them/How much money do you have? Probably best to get them nothing (or coal to be hilarious).

There you have it, folks, the perfect gift for every member of your family. You're welcome. If you have any better ideas (you don't) tweet them at me @MrChrisDonahue

Happy Holidays (mostly Christmas)!!!
