Planning to spend your Christmas break with your laptop and some hot chocolate? Here are five sitcom episodes you can watch that will lift up your holiday spirit
One of the best ways to relax this holiday season is to lay down, grab a mug of hot chocolate, and watch your favorite Christmas episodes from the comfort of your bed. You’ve got your pajamas on and a mug of hot cocoa in hand—what more can you ask for? If your plan is to crust away before your deadlines chase you again, here are five holiday episodes that are worth rewatching.
Friends, The One With the Holiday Armadillo
We’re starting off the list with one of the most watched TV sitcoms, Friends, and their lineup of new holiday personalities. If you’ve got Santa Claus for Christmas, then you’ve got the Holiday Armadillo for Hanukkah, and surprisingly Superman? Who cares—the more the merrier!
The Office, Christmas Party
Want to know how to put some tension in your usual gift giving tradition? Try the Yankee Swap that occurred in The Office’s Christmas episode, and you’ll definitely have an unforgettable memory with that. It’s like Secret Santa but make it awkward.
New Girl, The 23rd
To any New Girl fan out there, you’d know that this episode is their best holiday special. We get to see how this group takes care of each other in their own unique way since Jess got to see Candy Cane Lane in a new neighborhood—a detour that Nick made, which caused him to miss his trip back home. We’re not feeling sentimental at all, definitely not.
Modern Family, Undeck the Halls
How does one family deal with lies and deceit during Christmas? You’ll figure that out with the Dunphy’s and their extreme decisions to cancel the holidays because no one dares to tell the truth—maybe don’t do that with your family, though.
Gilmore Girls, The Bracebridge Dinner
Yes, we know that Gilmore Girls isn’t a sitcom, but its holiday-themed episodes are definitely worth watching—and rewatching. You’d think the drama will take a break at Stars Hollow for the holidays, but we expect too much from them. Amidst the last minute celebratory feast hosted by Lorelai and Sookie at the Independence Inn, the love triangle between Rory, Dean, and Jess is definitely underway. And don’t get us started on Richard completely giving Emily a shock by letting her know he has retired.
