Noelle
Funny, heartwarming, and adorably eccentric, Disney+’s Noelle is ready to become a holiday classic in your home.

A Very Sunny Christmas
Gross, over-the-top, brutal, and so opposite of every other Christmas special and movie that you can’t help but appreciate it.

The Apartment
A timeless look at the holidays from the point of view of the singletons who don’t have families to spend them with, the bitingly funny 1960 Oscar winner will appeal to cynics, cinephiles, and even romantics.

Serendipity
A lesson in authenticity, the power of friendship, and acting on your gut feeling, even when the odds are against you.

A Christmas Story
Looking for a holiday movie to watch with the entire family? If so this is a classic worth re-watching.

Mistletoe & Menorahs
Perfect for showing that different views can be respected and appreciated, this holiday romance has something for everyone.

Mrs. Doubtfire
Whether you want to distill family differences or connect with family members through comedy, Mrs. Doubtfire is a film that can spark joy across the generations.

The Umbrella Academy
The Umbrella Academy is a wildly imaginative take on the superhero genre, but it works mainly because of the strong characters and dysfunctional family at its core.

Rutherford Falls
Rutherford Falls is a clever and sweet satire similar to Michael Schur’s other half-hour comedies. Like Parks and Recreation and The Good Place, it’s surprisingly deep and deserves just as much attention.

Cha Cha Real Smooth
Cha Cha Real Smooth is a sweet, intimate antidote to all the noisy summer blockbusters out there. Filmmaker Cooper Raiff proves he’s someone to keep a close eye on.

The 10 Best Episodes of Love, Death + Robots
Netflix’s animated anthology Love, Death + Robots includes so many worthwhile episodes, but these 10 are a great place to start.

We are Lady Parts
This is a funny, endearing, fresh show that demonstrates what proper representation looks like.

Why I’m Watching Ms. Marvel and You Should Too
Ms. Marvel delivers the representation Muslims finally deserve. And you don’t have to be Muslim to appreciate it.

Fire Island
Fire Island is one of the best gay films released in recent memory. It’s funny, it’s romantic, and it is beautifully written, acted, and directed. It may not win Oscars–comedies rarely do; gay films more rarely still–but it is an instant classic that critics and audiences will be citing for years.
