Johnny - who, ironically, is Jewish - wakes up on Christmas Eve and decides it's time the Roses stop sulking during the holidays and suggests that they throw a big Christmas bash just like they used to (minus the mansion and celebrity guests and expensive champagne). Holiday episodes are more often skippable detours rather than essential viewing, but Schitt's Creek's sappy Christmas special succeeds at transporting the audience to a cozy, wintry December, even if you're binging the show in mid-August. These are our 25 favorite Schitt's Creek episodes of all time, ranked from great to greatest.

That said, some moments were more memorable than others. Levy and O'Hara play dynasty heads Johnny and Moira Rose, and while their chemistry was all but guaranteed, we weren't prepared for how much of the spotlight they'd share with co-stars Dan Levy (son David Rose), Annie Murphy (daughter Alexis Rose), Sarah Levy (townie Twyla Sands), and Emily Hampshire (motel owner Stevie Budd) - or for how much talent we'd see from the Levy bloodline.īetween Alexis's mysterious past life as an international socialite and the highly specific way she says 'David' David's ridiculous wardrobe ( great sweaters, though) and constantly pained facial expressions Johnny's expressive eyebrows and crisp suits and Moira's wigs and accent and inexplicably complicated vocabulary, the series mined chunks of comedic ore in every scene. Kicked out of their mansion, the smug has-beens are forced to post up in a motel in Schitt's Creek, a podunk town they once bought as a gag, until they get back on their feet.

Schitt's Creek follows the high society Rose family's fall from grace as their fortune evaporates from unwittingly investing in a Ponzi scheme. With the series wrapping up in April 2020 (and the first five seasons available on Netflix), it's as good a time as any to reminisce. Instead, Schitt's Creek followed the path of other Canadian sleeper hits like Trailer Park Boys and Letterkenny, only rising to cult-favorite status partway through its six-season run on Pop TV. With comedy classics like Best in Show, A Mighty Wind, and For Your Consideration already under their belt, the Levy-O'Hara comedy duo had more than proved their talent and effortless, natural ability to play off of one another. When a new Canadian sitcom starring Eugene Levy and Catherine O'Hara dropped back in 2015, we hoped for instant buzz.
