Fox's Animation Domination Sunday night line-up will be getting into the holiday spirit this weekend. Fox released a teaser for the animated comedy block and it appears that all of The Simpsons will be airing holiday installments on Sunday night.
For The Cleveland Show, the title character finds that there's some good grub at the local shelter, which entices him to pose as a homeless person so he can get access to the tasty meals. Parks and Recreation's Nick Offerman will be guest-voicing in the episode, playing a chauvinistic storeowner who hires Roberta as a Christmas elf.
The Simpsons' "To Cur With Love" doesn't sound like it has anything to do with Christmas or the holidays in general. Grandpa moves home with Homer and Marge when there's a fire at the retirement home, and at some point, Homer gets hooked on a tablet game called "Villageville."
Zach Galifianakis guest stars in Bob's Burgers' "God Rest Ye Merry Gentle Mannequins," which has Bob inheriting a storage unit, which happens to be the home Galifianakis' character Chet who - from the previously released pictures - uses the Belcher kids as part of his holiday-themed window displays.
Family Guy will re-tell the nativity story, which in their version, has Meg playing the donkey. Poor Meg!
Finally, The American Dad will feature the voices of Daran Norris and Danny Glover in "Minstrel Krampus." The description for that episode as well as the official synopsis for all of Fox's Sunday night comedies can be found below the trailer for the festive episodes set to air Sunday, December 16 on Fox.
