The streamer’s new arrivals don’t include as many holiday films as we might have expected, but at least you and the fam can curl up next to the fire to spend Christmas morning watching Baby Mama and Shaun of the Dead.

Here’s what we’re most excited about coming to Netflix in December…

Ellen DeGeneres: Relatable (Dec. 18) 

Ellen’s first stand-up special in 15 years hits Netflix on December 18, just in time for Christmas!

Nailed It! Holiday! (Dec. 7)

The always hilarious Nicole Byer tastes a bunch of amateur bakers’ bad Christmas cookies, fruit cakes, and other holiday desserts so you don’t have to.

Dumplin’ (Dec. 7)

Because who doesn’t want to watch Jennifer Aniston play a former beauty queen with a plus-size daughter set to an empowering soundtrack provided by Dolly Parton?

Chilling Adventures Of Sabrina: A Midwinter’s Tale (Dec. 14)

She’s witchy. She’s bitchy. She’s exactly how we envisioned ourselves when we were teenagers. Sabrina’s not taking sh*t from anyone in this spooky Christmas, er, solstice special.

Michael Jackson’s This Is It (Dec. 10)

Next June will mark 10 years–10 years!–since the self-proclaimed King of Pop’s passing. Re-live some of his greatest hits in his final film performance.

The American Meme (Dec. 7)

This documentary about celebrity narcissists influencers like Paris Hilton, Hailey Baldwin, DJ Khaled, and Josh Ostrovsky building their social media empires sounds so bad we can’t not watch.
