8 Times "The Office" Perfectly Portrayed Christmas

"I got myself for Secret Santa. I was supposed to tell somebody, but I didn't."

8 Times "The Office" Perfectly Portrayed Christmas
E! Online

What better way to get ready for Christmas than to watch all of "The Office" Christmas specials? From Dwight's crazy antics to Pam and Jim being perfect as usual, these episodes have to near the top when it comes to what to watch for Christmas. Also, can we admit that Kevin is the funniest person ever? I always liked watching "The Office" because it was hilariously realistic, and its Christmas specials are no different. Here's how "The Office" got Christmas right:

1. When Jim and Pam made unique gifts.

There is nothing better than giving and receiving a homemade gift from someone. Jim was the all-time great at making his own unique gifts, like the time when he bought Pam a teapot and specialized it just for her. Jim put a cassette, his high school yearbook photo and a few other things that were all inside jokes between the two inside of the teapot. Obviously, Pam loved it.

Pam also made Jim a homemade gift one year called "The Adventures of Jimmy Halpert." She designed an entire comic book just for Jim, which left him speechless. When you take the time to actually make a unique, personal gift for someone, it becomes the best gift that they could ever receive because it shows how much you care.

2. When Michael bought the iPod.

On the opposite spectrum of Jim and Pam, Michael bought a gift for Secret Santa that was expensive and thoughtless, and almost ruined the office's Christmas party. Sometimes during Christmas, we focus too much on money and what kind of gifts we are getting, rather than more important things.


3. When Kevin stuffed his face with food.

Let's face it, the holiday season is all about eating as much food as possible. Cookies, candy – you name it. When someone tells you that you can't have seconds, do as Kevin does and get them anyway.

4. When Kevin sat on Santa Claus.

There's always a kid that freezes up and doesn't know what to ask Santa.

5. When Kevin got himself for Secret Santa.

What's a Christmas without participating in Secret Santa?

6. When we found out that Belsnickel isn't real.

There comes a time in everyone's life when they realize that Belsnickel isn't real, and that he's actually just Dwight.

7. When Dwight made Christmas epic.

Sure, the Christmas classics are great, but Christmas music that you can rock out to? Dwight knows what's good.

8. When the whole office took photos.

Why does every picture have to be perfect? Like Oscar says, "Is it worth it?" And in the end, like Michael says, you're not going to get the perfect picture. This is every family holiday picture.

It's officially December. There is less than a month of 2024, and I still feel like yesterday was summer. Now comes the merriest time of the year, the Christmas season.

Everyone has been waiting for this time of year since mid-October (which is way too early, in my opinion) or before. It's a time of love, family, memory-making, and gift-giving. A lot of times when I ask friends and family what they want, I get a lot of "I don't know" or "I don't care."

Find excitement in your life and start exploring wherever you are right here, right now.

mu bucket list

I was sitting at my cubicle, now that I am an adult, looking at the rain pouring down on the windowsill, bumming on life, wishing for the rain to just stop for a full day.

There are moments where we count down the hours until work is over and how many more days till the weekend, and this many weeks until something exciting. Or something like that? Well, I was bumming because my next day off from work is not until Memorial Day weekend, which is not until the end of May. And since this is my first year out of college being a “real person,” I am totally missing the winter, spring and summer breaks. I am sure all of us have felt this way even if just for a hot minute…
