As we enter the month of December, it’s officially time to start the countdown till Christmas. Making some warm hot chocolate while you sit by the fire with your family perfectly sets the scene. But there’s one thing missing—a Christmas movie, obviously!

I hate to break it to you though, I’m tired of hearing the same Christmas movies being suggested. All of them are repeated on television every single day during the holiday season. So this year I’ll be sharing my favorite Christmas episodes from various old tv shows from my childhood.

Spongebob Squarepants: “Christmas Who?”
