Watch: Christina Hendricks Takes the E!Q in 42

Tis the season to be jolly—so Christina Hendricks might want to stop Googling "election aftermath."

But regardless of her search history, the Bad Santa star was already in the Christmas spirit when we chatted with her ahead of the R-rated sequel's release.

Taking the E!Q in 42, Hendricks filled us in on her favorite holiday dish and drink, as well as divulged that her favorite Christmas tradition is the stockings—both getting them and making them.

And though she's not expecting to find a Mad Men reunion beneath the tree anytime soon, it's still a most wonderful time of the year to start new traditions.

For instance, once she got the part in Bad Santa 2, Hendricks became a naughty-Christmas-movie convert.

She plays Diane, the head of a charity and the love interest for Billy Bob Thornton's ne'er-do-well Willie Soke, who reluctantly dons the red suit again to pull off a heist but instead runs headlong into a few people who for some reason persist in seeing the good in him. Hilarious nastiness ensues.

Bad Santa 2 is in theaters now.
