The holidays are all about family, so it's only natural that one of TV's most beloved families, The Goldbergs, take us into the season with an episode that's all about the happiest -- and sometimes most torturous -- time of year.
The episode, airing Wednesday night, sees mom Beverly (Wendi McLendon-Covey) create a holiday she calls "Super Hanukkah" and is an homage to A Christmas Story, one of creator Adam F. Goldberg's favorite movies as a child.
