Corny, schmaltzy Christmas special takes place in the Big Apple on Christmas Eve. While shopping at landmark New York food establishments Perry draws numerous contrasts between Italians and his co-host who is clearly not Italian. Later on, Perry, his co-host, cast and crew are invited to the Long Island home of the Balducci family where they cook and enjoy a very Italian-American spaghetti dinner. Perry spontaneously starts singing "I Wish Everyday could be Like Christmas" soon joined by the crowd as the fake snow falls outside the window behind them. Very low budget, cute and good for the "red sauce" crowd.
