Christmas Comes Early To Netflix This November
by Erik Amaya
Netflix is ready to ring in the Yuletide!
While November on the service is often a chance to upload a lot of holiday-themed entertainment, the 2026 edition of the month feels almost entirely devoted to jingle bells, decked halls, and mistletoe mishaps. There’s also at least one menorah to be found among the offerings. It starts on November 1st with A Sudden Case for Christmas and continues throughout the month with titles like A Dog’s Perfect Christmas and A Christmas Castle Proposal: A Royal in Paradise 2.
Curiously, Netflix is splitting its wintry focus with more horror thanks to the debut of Obsession on the 17th while various Insidious films return to the service across the weeks of November. We also noticed Smile and other films with one-word titles balancing out the coziness of holiday fare like A Cherry Pie Christmas.
For those looking for more real-life horrors, Netflix is releasing documentaries about 1980s televangelists and long-missing young women. Provided, of course, you’re looking to dive into something that unsettling.
And as our own Tito W. James pointed out earlier today, Bass X Machina arrives on the 3rd if you’re looking for some history-inspired-but-somehow-steampunk anime.
These are merely the things we noticed going through Netflix’s list of everything coming to the service (and leaving) next month. Check the list yourself to find your next pop culture obsession:

Spinning his wildest, most unbelievable stories into some of the biggest laughs of the night. It’s Tyson like you’ve never seen him: unguarded, unpredictable, and genuinely hilarious — proof that the baddest man on the planet might also be one of the wittiest.
