All In The Family.... "The Draft Dodger".... When Mike invites his Vietnam draft dodger friend over for Christmas Eve dinner, all the while, Archie has invited his friend who lost his Son in Vietnam. VERY powerful episode!

MASH.... "Death Takes A Holiday"..... Hawkeye, B.J. and Hot Lips try to keep a dying G.I. alive for several hours so he can be pronounced after Midnight on Christmas, with thoughts of the G.I.'s family not having to think of Christmas Day in such a bad way. The ending of this one always gets me. The G.I. dies with still about 25-30 minutes to go before Midnight. Hawkeye walks over to the clock and pushes the hand forward and says "Look, 10 minutes after Midnight." It's also my favorite episode of MASH.
