The premise

Here’s the bit.

Three women decorating a Christmas tree compare their holiday plans, then step in front of a glittering curtain to sing about dating Santa. Familiar Christmas customs become romantic and sexual boasts as each woman describes the same attentive boyfriend. Their confidence falters when they turn to the question of his wife and whether he will leave her. The trio close the cold opening with a harmonized announcement of the show.
