'The Office' Christmas Episodes, Ranked
NBC

In This Article:

It's every white American's favorite sitcom. And now that it's Christmas, it's time to bingewatch the holiday episodes. Here is my recommended viewing order (the best is listed at #7 because apparently we're not allowed to do count-down articles anymore).

1. Christmas Wishes (Season 8)

Okay, as much as I love Erin and how cute and relatable she is in this episode, I have to rank it last. It's the first Christmas without Michael Scott, instead we get Robert California (I just don't like him, I'm sorry), and the awkwardness between one of my favorite couples (Andy & Erin) just make it hard to watch.

2. "Dwight Christmas" (Season 9)

Don't get me wrong: I love seeing Dwight's traditional Christmas. The episode just isn't nearly as funny as some of the others on this list. Add Erin being sad about Andy (again :/), no Michael Scott, and the fact that let's be real, the show had peaked a few seasons back, and this episode lands at number six.

3. Moroccan Christmas (Season 5)

This episode has a couple great elements: Meredith's intervention and the rehab scene, and the tension between Phyllis and Angela, ending with Phyllis finally standing up for herself. That and "Do you take requests? Please stop." But overall, it just doesn't land as nicely as some of the others.

4. Classy Christmas (Season 7)

This one's great. We've got Michael and Holly reunited, and we've got the snowball fight. While it's great to see our OTP reunited, and we know where it goes, it's still hard to watch the tension between them in this two-parter.

5. Secret Santa (Season 6)

This episode is amazing. It has the cute Andy & Erin moments, Michael as Jesus, "I need this, I need this!", and the branch finds out they're not out of their jobs. Definitely lands in the top 3.

6. Christmas Party (Season 2)

The first Christmas episode. Aside from how painful it was to watch Michael insult Phyllis's gift so hard, this was a great Christmas special. It just wasn't quite as funny as my pick for #1:

7. Benihana Christmas

A phenomenal Christmas episode. Too many jokes to name. Too many iconic lines, including "Christmas is cancelled." Hands down deserves it's spot at #1 on the list.

Merry bingewatching, everyone!

Dear Mom,

You took care of me and my brothers our entire lives and you still continue to! I will not be able to truly grasp all of the hard work that you put into this family until I create my own one day. But, I know that there are plenty of times I forgot to give you a simple thank you or an appreciative smile. I thank you for everything that you have done for me and will continue to do for me. Here are some examples of those times where you had my back and I forgot to pat your back for saving me:

What I Do When I’m Sick in College

I wish I had my mom.

College is hard. As people ages 18-22, we’re just trying to figure out what we’re doing with our lives, our careers, our eating habits, exercise routines, sleep patterns, and other necessities for adult life. We definitely don’t take proper care of ourselves; it’s basically impossible when we have essays, tests and readings due and somehow we’re supposed to eat right, exercise and sleep. We’re doomed to get sick. I have zero experience in science but when I get sick there are certain things I do to make myself better.

Now that it seems “talking” is the new way to date, and will stay that way until another idiotic term is used to describe the people who can’t settle down and just date someone, I feel as if it’s time to go over the unwritten rules of “talking.”

Rule 1. Having feeling without feeling.
