The animated special, titled “The Missing Christmas Mustache,” extends the animated introduction that accompanied Season 2, Episode 4 “Carol of the Bells,” which acted as the show’s Christmas-themed episode. Instead of the traditional intro for the series, that episode saw an animated version play, and it looks like the folks behind the hit series extended that into a full special short.
