As final seasons is underway, I know we’re all looking forward for them to be over and to really get into the Christmas spirit (or at least I am). If you’re anything like me, a good movie or TV show gets me into the spirit of Christmas more than anything else. With that said, I want to give some of my essential Christmas watches, some of them classics and others that are newer but worth the watch. I also threw in a couple specific Christmas episodes because nothing is better than when your favorite show has a fun Christmas related episode!
- The Polar Express (2004)
- The Happiest Season (2020)
- The Office
- “A Benihana Christmas” (Season 3)
- “A Christmas Party” (Season 2)
- Elf (I know we’ve all seen it 1000 times but is this list complete without it?)
- Klaus (2019)
- Die Hard (1988)
- Love Actually (2003)
- A Bad Moms Christmas (2017)
- Hawkeye (2021)
- It’s a Wonderful Life (1946)
- Doctor Who Christmas Specials
- Home Alone (1990)
- Glee, “A Very Glee Christmas” (season 2)
- Good Luck Charlie, it’s Christmas! (2011) (this one is a definite guilty pleasure)
- High School Musical: The Musical: Holiday Special (2020)
- Muppets Christmas Carol (1992)
There are so many more that I wish I could list, but we’d be here all day! I hope these give you some joy and gets you in the spirit this holiday season!
