We're making a list and checking it twice because every title is worth the watch. December brings the perfect excuse to curl up with a blanket, a mug of hot cocoa and a streaming lineup that would make even Santa jealous. Holiday romcoms? Check. Thrillers? Check. Binge-worthy series? Check, check. Let's unwrap what's coming to streaming this month.
Must-see movies and shows this December
Whether you watch Netflix, Hulu, Prime, Disney+, HBO or all of them, we've got you covered. Netflix is leading the charge with some of the most anticipated titles. Fans of "Stranger Things" can catch Volume 2 on Dec. 25 and the series finale on Dec. 31. You'll also see "Emily in Paris" Season 5, Rian Johnson's new "Knives Out" mystery and plenty of holiday movies to keep the cocoa flowing.
Disney+ is bringing just as much excitement. "Percy Jackson and the Olympians" returns for Season 2, and Taylor Swift is taking over the platform with two Eras Tour specials, giving Swifties a behind-the-scenes look at the record-breaking tour.
Hulu keeps things simple with the new legal dramedy "All's Fair," while Prime Video brings fresh holiday movies along with the hit video-game adaptation "Fallout," which drops its second season on Dec. 17.
HBO Max closes out the month with its "I Love LA" season finale, rounding out a December watchlist that will keep your binge-watching skills sharp.
