What happens

Merry Madagascar is a Christmas special that was first broadcast on the NBC network on November 17, 2009, which starred the characters from the film series Madagascar, and takes place sometime between the first and second film. It is the second DreamWorks Animation Christmas special, after Shrek the Halls. It features many of the same voices from the film, including Ben Stiller, Chris Rock, David Schwimmer, and Jada Pinkett Smith. The only major exception was Sacha Baron Cohen as King Julien XIII, who was replaced by Danny Jacobs, who also voices the character in a mid-credits scene of the Penguins of Madagascar spin-off film, along with The Penguins of Madagascar and All Hail King Julien TV series. Carl Reiner provided the voice of Santa Claus. (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
