Merry Christmas Eve, y'all!

While the city of Gotham might be as dangerous and corrupt as ever, that doesn't mean the cast of the hit Fox drama can't enjoy the holidays!

In fact, the cast even participated in a Secret Santa exchange, and they exclusively revealed to E! Online what they all got each other. But here's where it gets super adorable: They didn't get gifts for their cast members...they each picked a character on the show to get a gift for this holiday season!

And based on what they all decided to get for the characters they picked, it's pretty clear that everyone in Gotham needs a little break this holiday season. The crime rate is as high as ever, the GCPD just lost their top detective as Jim Gordon (Ben McKenzie) has been transferred to Arkham, and unhinged villain Oswald Cobblepot (Robin Lord Taylor) keeps on climbing that crime ladder, so it's no surprise that most gifts include booze or fluffy things like cats and teddy bears.

The cast really got into the holiday spirit and were super creative and thoughtful with their gifts, so check out their Secret Santa picks below!

Ben McKenzie's Gift for Fish Mooney:
"It's hard to know what to give a girl who has everything, but Fish definitely needs to unwind at the end of a long day. I would buy her a bottle of tequila and a large Teddy bear—tequila to relax, the Teddy because somebody needs a hug."

Jada Pinkett Smith's Gift for Oswald Cobblepot/The Penguin:
"I would get him a session with an Orthopedist and get his leg reset..."

Robin Lord Taylor's Gift for Detective Harvey Bullock:
"I'm getting Detective Harvey Bullock a kitten. I think it would soften him up a little bit. He could call it Oswald and feed it lots of tuna fish."

David Mazouz's Gift for Crispus Allen:
"A new name that doesn't sound like 'Christmas Salad.' Must be tough with a name like that around the GCPD!!"

Cory Michael Smith's Gift for Renee Montoya:
"I'd get our beloved Renee Montoya a Freezer... 'cause girl needs to CHILL OUT and back away slowly from the Barbara Kean situation."

Camren Bicondova's gift for Detective James Gordon:
"I would give Jim Gordon a gift card to Gotham Groceries. I would also set up a blind date because I think he needs some love in his life."

Andrew Stewart Jones' Gift for Carmine Falcone:
"I would give Carmine Falcone a cat. To put amongst his pigeons. Seems to me he would smile while hating it!"

Zabryna Guevara's Gift for Alfred Pennyworth:
"What better gift for good old Al than a BUTLER! Between cleaning that ENTIRE mansion alone, single parenting and fending off intruders I think he could do with a little help from a friend who knows what it's all about. His future self, Alfred, who can anticipate any need before it's made. Now the servant has become the master...Happy Christmas, mate."

John Doman's Gift for Captain Sarah Essen:
"I would get her a life sized teddy bear so she would have someone to cuddle with."     

Erin Richards' Gift for Bruce Wayne:
"I would gift Bruce Wayne an invisible cape, so he could practice being Batman without anyone knowing!"

Victoria Cartagena's Gift for Selina Kyle/the Future Catwoman:
"I would give the future Cat Woman the 'Selina Kyle Care Kit.' The kit would include everything a girl 'on the go' needs: a first-aid kit for those minor cuts and scrapes that inevitably come from all those climbing, jumping and kick-butting shenanigans; a couple of milk chocolate candy bars, because a girl who is always on the run is bound to crave a snack every once in a while; and, of course, a spare set of goggles. I'd also slip in a self-help book for wayward kids because, while unquestionably resourceful and fiercely independent, Selina still needs some guidance in her life. Finally, I would include a prepaid cellphone with three numbers in it: Montoya and Allen's, just in case of an emergency, and Camren Bicondova's, because she is sweet, funny, kind-hearted and would make an awesome friend (maybe she can even teach Selina some awesome dance moves :-))"

(Note: Donal Logue and Sean Pertwee couldn't participate in the Secret Santa exchange because they had already left for the holidays and were unreachable. They had chosen "Edward Nygma/The Future Riddler" and "Barbara Kean.")
