The art of cinema has gifted us with myriad Christmas classics: Miracle on 34th Street, It's a Wonderful Life, White Christmas...
But after constant replay every year, watching those delightful classics is like looking at old family photographs – after one fond sigh of nostalgia, you're bored and just looking at people who are dead now.
On the other hand, every latchkey '90s kid can tell you that Christmas means sitting in front of the TV all day, watching the sitcom families that practically raised us experience holiday mayhem and mischief.
In the age of streaming (and of Hulu acquiring our childhood in a deal with ABC), we can watch all the Christmas specials of '90s sitcoms in a nonstop throwback. Step back in time to the days of dial up, call waiting, and a sore lack of diversity on TV that we'll ignore for the sake of nostalgia!
(All of these can be found in full on Hulu, with the exception of Boy Meets World, which is on YouTube, and Friends, which remains Netflix's b*tch).

Seinfeld: "The Strike"
Seinfeld Festivus episode
Who can forget Festivus, the holiest of days? Landing on December 23, the celebration includes a Festivus dinner and a very special, plain Festivus pole. People partake in time-honored traditions such as the "Airing of Grievances" and "Feats of Strength," and they explain very mundane coincidences as "Festivus miracles." Happy Festivus!
