Query, why don't American shows do Christmas specials?

They do, they are just not specials. Scheduling is more stringent than in the UK so - outside some animated specials - Christmas episodes are factored in the regular 13 or 22 episode seasons. But quite a few American shows have Christmas-themed episodes that air during holidays.

Best part of it is when they air those shows in Spain several months later, and the Christmas episode pops up in the middle of the summer

Well now you know how the actors and crew felt producing that episode in the middle of Summer

Well ok they probably made it in like October or something.

They also will often have a Halloween and Thanksgiving episode. If your holiday occurs in the Fall you might get an episode. Sorry Easter/4th of July.

So, garbo, have you seen Looking: the Movie?

Watching it right now. Just as boring and charming as the tv series.

No, I still need to finish watching the show as season 2 was still airing when I moved to the UK.

I would like Andrew Haigh to come up with a new project. Been quite sometime since Weekend.

I am curious thought about what [spoiler]the website's real analog was or did he just completely make up any drama with the guy who was supposedly a host for a website?[/spoiler]
