Ho Ho Hulu! Find The Perfect Christmas TV Episode To Stream With Decider’s Holly Jolly Sitcom Flowchart

Season’s streamings, Decider readers! The Christmas season is upon us and, if you’re super into all things merry and/or bright, you’re filling every waking moment with wintery merriment. Christmas music, traditional movies, holiday treats, red and green attire–I know how you roll, because it is how I roll as well.

But there’s more Christmas out there than just the same movies you watch every year. There are hundreds, thousands, of TV episodes dedicated to our year-end holidays (check it out!), meaning your favorite shows also have seasonal installments that can fill you with laughs and Christmas cheer. But there’s so much to watch, how will you ever decide which episode is right for you?

That’s where Decider comes in! Just like we did for Halloween, we’ve come up with a flowchart that will guide each and every one of you to the Christmas sitcom episode that you want to watch right now. And this time around, we’re focusing our efforts on Hulu in celebration of the streaming service’s much appreciated effort to snatch up every classic sitcom around.

We catalogued 50 Christmas episodes across 42 different series and tracked their usage of all the Christmas tropes. Cast members dressing up like Santa, last minute shopping fiascos, straight up terrible gifts, burned down trees, celebrity guests, poverty tourism, a surprising amount of crime–you’ll find all of that and more in these Christmas specials!

The first decision you’ll make is straightforward: you want a simple Christmas journey, or a cavalcade of Christmas? If you want the former, then click on the Decider flowchart below that features 12 super joy-filled episodes. You can also download an interactive PDF of the flowchart that includes links to all of the episodes on Hulu!

If you want to get serious and travel beyond the borders above, you can venture into our Super Advanced Holly Jolly Sitcom Decider, which includes 50 episodes. Tip: It might be best to open that one on a laptop so you can zoom in. to begin your journey into multi-camera Christmas magic!
