We'd like to thank the creators of betamaxmas.com for recreating with stunning approximation the experience of sitting around your parents basement circa 1985 and watching TV during the holidays.

There's no actual Betamax machine with which to play well-worn copies of D.C Cab and 48 Hrs., but there is a remote where you can scan for old cartoons like A Garfield Christmas, episodes of The Facts of Life featuring George Clooney, and a holiday-themed Perfect Strangers (with commercials!); or, if those aren't to your liking, click on the TV Guide and find something else to watch. We can practically hear our mothers yelling from upstairs that its time to light the menorah/eat ham/shake a Kwanzaa stick, or whatever holiday tradition your were forced to partake in in your household.
