The Office: Every Christmas Episode Ranked From Worst To Best

In terms of an out and out funny festive-themed Office episode, it's hard to top Moroccan Christmas. It will forever be the episode where Phyllis told everybody that Dwight was sleeping with Angela, though this makes up for such a small part of it that it almost gets lost in the myriad of other happenings.

Michael dealing with Merideth's drinking problem by ostensibly inviting her to a bar, when he is really taking her to rehab, is one of those laugh-out-loud moments that the show delivered perfectly.

Meanwhile, Dwight's scheme to buy up all of the local shop's most popular Christmas toy and sell them at an extortionate rate, which ends up in Toby begging Darryl for the last toy and paying through the nose for it, is a gem of a secondary storyline that really provides parent-related humour.

Though Angela having to obey everything Phyllis does and says provides the episode's fresh twist. When Angela tries and fails to call Phyllis's bluff, resulting in Phyllis telling everyone that Dwight & Angela are engaged in a tryst, it comes as a shock to the rest of the office which is made all the funnier by Andy not being there to hear it and remaining ignorant of the fact.

Moroccan Christmas is better than people remember it to be, it is just unfortunate that there were more meaningful Christmas episodes that overshadowed it.
