Sandwiched between the other holiday films—think the Macy’s Thanksgiving Day Parade in Miracle on 34th Street or Wednesday Adams’s sinister (if historically-accurate) re-enactment in Addams Family Values. Thanksgiving tends to get a better treatment on TV, inspiring canonical episodes of Gossip Girl, Friends, and Master of None. We’ve collected 21 Thanksgiving-adjacent movies that capture the spirit of the holiday—carb-loading, fighting with your family, and overheating in a cashmere sweater. Here’s to finding post-meal common ground with one of the titles on this list. Planes, Trains and Automobiles This isn’t known as Steve Martin’s uptight marketing executive, Neal, just wants to travel from New York to Chicago for turkey with his family. His plans for an uneventful trip are foiled again and again by John Candy’s boisterous shower-ring salesman, Del, who's eager to make friends with Neal during their wayward journey. We will never look at pillows—or rental car agents—the same way again. JustWatch The House of Yes All hail Parker Posey, star of perhaps the most off-beat Thanksgiving film ever made. In The House of Yes, she stars as a Jackie O-obsessed woman whose delicate reality is sent into free fall with the arrival of her twin brother ( Josh Hamilton) and his fiancée ( Tori Spelling) for the holidays. Posey won a Sundance Special Jury prize for the film, affirming her place in the indie hall of fame. JustWatch Sweet November What could pair better with a full stomach...

Coming across Iris's listing of her cottage on a home swap website, she messages her. They agree to switch houses for two weeks starting the next day. Iris happily settles into Amanda's large house, but Amanda decides she has made a mistake and plans to return home the next day. That night, Iris's handsome book editor brother, Graham, drops by after drinking too much at the local pub, asking to spend the night. Amanda agrees, and after they talk, Graham unexpectedly kisses her on the lips; she suggests they have sex because she does not expect to see him ever again. The next morning, despite having enjoyed their time together, they go their separate ways. That evening, Graham meets friends at the pub for dinner, as he had mentioned t...

It’s been nearly 40 years since Ralphie ( Peter Billingsley) longed for the Red Ryder BB gun, despite everyone’s warnings that he’ll “shoot [his] eye out.” Given the film’s beloved following and 24-hour TBS marathon on Christmas day, the odds against its sequel were high. And yet, the long-awaited follow-up, which is produced and co-written by Billingsley, manages to chart its own path. In this iteration, Ralphie is now the stressed-out parent who must do everything in his power to give his kids a Christmas as picturesque as his own (at least how he remembers it). But the film is at its best when it avoids dwelling on the past, a lesson Ralphie himself is poised to learn. Falling for Christmas Scott Everett White/Netflix All hail the l Lindsay Lohan. Falling for Christmas itself is a fairly by-the-numbers tale in which a hotel heiress recovers from head injury-induced amnesia at a cozy, but struggling lodge owned by a hunky widower played by Chord Overstreet. Because of said injury, she can’t remember much about her old life (or the fiancee whose proposal she accepted just before taking her tumble), making romance with said lodge owner possible. Basically— Overboard with jingle bells. And yet, the film After producing roughly 1,000 Christmas movies, Hallmark has at long last centered a film on Kwanzaa. This generically-labeled tale doesn’t reinvent the wheel—a big-city graphic designer Ella ( Lyndie Greenwood) returns to her hometown during the holidays, where familial ten...

After Although Hallmark Channel had the most UpTV released 17 and BET+ dropped 10 new holiday flicks in 2002 while many other networks and streaming services —both big and small — entered the holiday TV movie race, including NBC, Netflix, HBO Max, Discovery+, Amazon Prime Video, Hulu, Freevee and Roku, among others. A few of those did submit for the Emmys. A few holiday movies have been in the TV movie race in the past. Last year, Roku’s “Zoey’s Extraordinary Playlist” was submitted and landed a nomination. The year before, Netflix’s “Dolly Parton’s Christmas on the Square” entered the race and took home the Emmy. So it’s no surprise that Parton’s NBC special, “Dolly Parton’s Mountain Magic Christmas” has been submitted this year. The last NBC movie to be nominated in the category was in 2017 —“Dolly Parton’s Christmas of Many Colors: Circle of Love.” Both The CW and Freevee are entering the category this year for the first time, submitting “A Waltons Thanksgiving” and “Hotel for the Holidays,” respectively. Scroll through the list below for more information on the five holiday films submitted, as revealed as voting opened on Thursday. Parton has become a holiday staple and this year’s NBC special featured Tom Everett Scott, Ana Gasteyer, Angel Parker and both Billy Ray and Miley Cyrus. The movie’s plot is genius: a modern-day movie musical all about the making of a TV special. • 'A Christmas Story Christmas' Image Credit: Screenshot courtesy HBO Max/YouTube Fresh off the ...

Lindsay Lohan plays a socialite in need of some Christmas magic in Netflix's Falling for Christmas. Scott Everett White/Netflix It's hot cocoa time again, it's snowman time, it's gift-giving time, and of course, it's time for "we gotta save the local gingerbread factory with the help of a hot and newly reformed corporate raider who was permanently changed when he got a dab of whipped cream on his nose." In other words, it's time once again for holiday-themed TV movies. Does this largely mean Christmas romcoms? It does. Is Hallmark still the hallmark (I'm so sorry) of these efforts? It is. But there are also big pushes from Lifetime and Netflix, plus lots and lots more from lower-profile places, some of which (like UPtv and ION, say) are old pros and some of which (Discovery+, for instance) are newer to the game. There are family movies and kids' movies, and there are even musicals. So how on earth do you navigate? We're here to help. Get the lay of the land Let's start here: Your heavy hitters in terms of volume are still Hallmark and Lifetime. What's more, Hallmark has two cable channels with two different Christmas mission statements. Regular Hallmark, with its What happened to the old guide where you went through every single movie? They broke me, friends. I think it was when Food Network got involved. Doing it that way no longer made sense, particularly given that various providers of TV listings were already doing inventories. In putting this piece together, I am part...
