And because we're not Scrooges here, here's a round-up of all the Christmas goodies heading your way on Netflix in the coming weeks.

MOVIES

Holiday in the Wild

Release date: November 1

Starring: Rob Lowe, Kristin Davis

Just when they're about to head on a second honeymoon, Kate (Kristin Davis) is dumped by her husband. Undeterred, she goes on the African safari on her own where she helps Derek (Rob Lowe) rescue a baby elephant.

And before you can say holiday romance, Kate extends her stay in Zambia through Christmas, but will she choose new love with Derek or return home? We have a feeling we already know.

Let It Snow

Release date: November 8

Starring: Kiernan Shipka, Shameik Moore, Jacob Batalon, Joan Cusack, Isabela Merced

During a snowstorm in the small town of Gracetown on Christmas Eve, a group of high school students – including Chilling Adventures of Sabrina's Kiernan Shipka and Spider-Man's Jacob Batalon – find their friendships and love lives colliding in unexpected ways.

It's based on the novel of the same name that featured three stories from John Green, Maureen Johnson and Lauren Myracle that all intertwined with one another.

Klaus

Release date: November 15

Starring: Jason Schwartzman, JK Simmons, Rashida Jones, Norm MacDonald, Joan Cusack

From Despicable Me co-creator Sergio Pablos, Klaus is Netflix's first animated feature film and centres on Jesper (Jason Schwartzman), the postal academy's worst student who is sent to a frozen island above the Arctic Circle.

Just when he's about to give up, he finds a friend in Alva (Rashida Jones) and the duo meet a mysterious carpenter (JK Simmons) who lives alone in a cabin full of handmade toys. Together, they will create what we all have come to know as Christmas. (It's a fictional origin tale, before you start fact-checking.)

The Knight Before Christmas

Netflix

Release date: November 21

Starring: Vanessa Hudgens, Josh Whitehouse

Out of all of Netflix's Christmas offerings for 2019, this feels like one you'll know if you want to see it based on the title – and the synopsis isn't going to change that view.

The rom-com follows a medieval English knight (Josh Whitehouse) who is magically transported – is there any other way? – to the present day where he meets, and falls for, a high-school science teacher (Vanessa Hudgens) who is disillusioned by love.

Holiday Rush

Netflix

Release date: November 21

Starring: Sonequa Martin-Green, Romany Malco, Darlene Love, Deon Cole

To keep his four children happy after the loss of their mum, radio DJ Rashon 'Rush' Williams (Romany Malco) has been spoiling them, only for him to lose his job just as they share their pricey Christmas lists.

His producer (Sonequa Martin-Green) and aunt (Darlene Love) plan to buy him another station to keep Rush on the air, but his family must learn to downsize and embrace a simpler life. In classic Christmas fashion, they must learn that true joy comes from who you're with – and not what you have.

A Christmas Prince: The Royal Baby

Netflix

Release date: December 5

Starring: Rose McIver, Ben Lamb

It's time to head back to Aldovia in the third outing for Netflix's popular Christmas franchise.

In case the title didn't give it away, a royal baby is on the way for Queen Amber (Rose McIver) and King Richard (Ben Lamb). However, when a priceless artefact is stolen, Amber must unmask the thief before Christmas Eve, otherwise a 600-year-old truce between nations could be ruined forever.

TV SHOWS

Nailed It! Holiday!

Richard Foreman Jr./Netflix

Release date: November 22

Starring: Nicole Byer, Jacques Torres

The best baking show (that's not The Great British Bake Off) on TV is back for a second helping of holiday-based baking disasters.

Along with celebrity guests, hosts Nicole Byer and Jacques Torres set three home bakers some festive-inspired bakes, likely fully in the knowledge that the results won't look anything like the original bake.

Merry Happy Whatever

Adam RoseNetflix

Release date: November 28

Starring: Dennis Quaid, Bridgit Mendler, Brent Morin, Hayes MacArthur, Ashley Tisdale

Set in the days before and after Christmas, this new sitcom sees Don Quinn (Dennis Quaid) struggle to keep things together when his youngest daughter arrives home with a new boyfriend in tow.

The show from Everybody Loves Raymond writer Tucker Cawley is aimed to be a new anthology series for Netflix, with future seasons potentially exploring other holidays.

Sugar Rush Christmas

Kevin EstradaNetflix

Release date: November 29

Starring: Hunter March, Candace Nelson, Adriano Zumbo, Tiffani Thiessen

If you prefer your baking shows to be more professional, then Sugar Rush's first Christmas series is the one for you.

With guest judges including Saved By the Bell's Tiffani Thiessen and Olympic Gold medallist Meryl Davis, four professional teams compete over three rounds of Christmas-themed competition to win a $10,000 prize.
