For the rest of this month, the focus for both the multitude of streaming services on offer and their subscribers will be on content designed to scare you out of your seat as the buildup to Halloween continues. However, almost as soon as the clock strikes midnight on the spookiest day of the year, the focus will immediately shift to Christmas.
Each year a countless barrage of festive movies and TV shows are released, but very few of them manage to penetrate the public consciousness and elevate themselves into the pantheon of all-time greats like It’s a Wonderful Life, Home Alone, Scrooged, The Muppets Christmas Carol, White Christmas, A Christmas Story and depending on your personal opinion, Die Hard.
As the world’s leading platform, Netflix are obviously going to go heavy on the festive angle once again, but November also brings the release of several major titles from a variety of different genres, not to mention a beloved show that’s the equivalent of televised comfort food, as you can see below, with the following list courtesy of the folks over at What’s On Netflix.

So, lots to get excited for, then. For one, Ron Howard’s star-studded drama Hillbilly Elegy will debut next month along with David Fincher’s hotly-anticipated Mank, both of which could find themselves firmly in the awards season race. Meanwhile, The Crown will also return for season 4 and introduce Princess Diana and Margaret Thatcher into the mix, as the prestige drama looks to reinforce its reputation as one of the best shows of the modern era.
Then there’s the usual array of Christmas content, but based on how the internet seems to love it so much, the real dark horse coming to Netflix next month is probably the latest edition of The Great British Baking Show, which looks set to offer the ideal opportunity for binge watching.
