So if you have a sense of awareness at all...you'll know that Christmas was this week. And what else does that mean? That every Christmas themed episode of any show ever is going to be playing on tv for the entire month of December.
Whether it be FRIENDS (which I strongly recommend) or Bob's Burgers (if you just want to laugh all Christmas), the Christmas themed episodes are usually the best.
While there are many Christmas episodes (10 for FRIENDS and like 87 for The Simpsons), I feel like some are definitely better than others.
First up on the list...
The Office, Classy Christmas: Season 7, Episode 11
Though there are many hilarious things about this episode, my absolute favorite would have to be the opening. Them not being able to correctly jump in the Christmas photo (and never actually getting it right) basically represents every family ever and Phyllis not being able to make it a great distance off the ground represents me (don't tell anyone).
Now I couldn't forget about my favorite show...
FRIENDS: The One With the Routine: Season 6, Episode 10.
While I personally feel that the Thanksgiving episodes were better than the Christmas ones, they don't hold a candle to this one. And technically, this one is moreso a New Year's Eve one, but it still counts. Monica and Ross's dance, that I've shamelessly tried to duplicate with my brother before, is the single best thing ever and watching this episode solely for that is enough for me.
Don't hate me for this next one...
Supernatural: A Very Supernatural Christmas: Season 3, Episode 8.
Now this show definitely isn't a very cheerful one at most times, but this episode proved differently. Not to give anything away, just in case you intend on watching it, which you definitely should, this was supposed to be Sam and Dean's last Christmas together and that emotion was evident throughout the entire episode. So were all of the ghosts and spirits... but I guess that part isn't very Christmas-y.
I'm not even going to apologize for this one...
It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia: A Very Sunny Christmas: Season 6, Episode 13.
This show definitely isn't one that I would consider appropriate, but if you have enjoyed any episode at all...watch this Christmas one. It starts off with Mac and Charlie hanging up Christmas decorations the day before Christmas (because why not?) and continues with Dee and Dennis trying to get back at Frank for giving them such a bad Christmas. If you need a laugh, and a look at show to make you feel better about yourself, watch it!
My mom would be proud...
Modern Family: Any and All
Literally any Christmas episode ever from this show is good enough.
Last but not least...
Bob's Burgers: The Bleakening: Season 8, Episode 6.
This is a recent one, and it's still just as great. One thing that makes it great is that this episode is a musical for some odd reason, and Linda does not disappoint. She gets her Christmas tree and all of the ornaments on it stolen and sets out on a rampage to find it, and honestly, I completely relate. A Christmas isn't complete without the Belcher family in it.
Feel free to add whatever you choose to these, but these are definitely my favorite Christmas episodes for the many (honestly the list is too long) TV shows that I watch. Or you can completely ignore this list and watch whatever you choose.
Whichever way you go, I hope you enjoy it and have a very merry Christmas!
