Streaming new holiday shows, specials, and movies is great, but what if you are just in need of a little comfort this holiday season? We highly recommend re-watching old holiday episodes of The Office. The Office gave us so much in its nine-season run and the holiday shenanigans at the Dunder Mifflin Paper Company resulted in some of the show’s funniest and most-loved episodes.
All year round, Canadian streaming platform Crave offers up every episode of the beloved sitcom, that originally ran on NBC from 2005 to 2013. So, if you’re in need of a break this holiday season, you can dive straight into the yuletide episodes of The Office for a binge-watching marathon. The Office technically had a total of nine holiday episodes, with two seasons (S3 and S7) offering up festive two-parters. Season one and season four do not have Christmas-themed episodes.
Ready for some Dunder Mifflin shenanigans? Keep reading for the complete list of all of The Office Christmas-themed episodes.
