18 Tiny Details From Holiday Episodes Of Your Favorite TV Shows You Might Have Missed

by Damjan

Everyone loves holidays. And everyone loves TV shows.

The holidays appear to be the ideal time to recharge our batteries in preparation for another difficult period on your jobs or around the house. TV shows and movies are a great way to relax.

We can get lost in other worlds and other people’s problems, forgetting our own. That’s so great.

There are many great things about holidays, and one of them is holiday episodes of our favorite shows. The creators sometimes just try to do them in the easiest way possible – by creating an episode that’s nothing more than a collage of the main characters’ memories.

And it is great fun, but still shows a lack of appreciation for the audience. On the other hand, some creators give their best and create episodes worth remembering and revisiting.

And when you revisit them, you can find a bunch of amazing details you missed when watching them before. We have compiled a list of 18 of the most interesting details in holiday episodes of your favorite TV shows.

They will make you revisit those episodes, we promise. Let's take a look and help you pick an episode to watch tonight:

14. Community: Krasnoff Foster Productions

15. Friends

Phoebe's work is shown on a wall in Monica's apartment in a flashback to Thanksgiving 1992. Because Phoebe was living there at the time, this makes sense. (And, seasons later, Phoebe's artwork is prominently included in an episode's plot.)

18. The Office: "A Benihana Christmas"

Angela claims her favorite song is "Little Drummer Boy" in "A Benihana Christmas." Dwight hums this song in the pilot, therefore it appears that Dwight and Angela were dating before the show even started.

So, what do you think about our list? Did it make you want to watch some of your favorite episodes again?

If it seems that The Office is one of the most frequently mentioned shows here, you are not mistaken. We couldn’t help it- we love the fact the show creators give so much attention to details, and we simply wanted to give them credit.
