© Provided by Grazia Netflix Christmas Films 2020

Christmas lovers, rejoice! It’s finally that time of year — Netflix has released its line-up of all the new Christmas films that will be on the streaming platform this year. And while it might seem a bit early to some (cough, Scrooge, cough), I don’t think a little Christmas cheer will hurt anyone this year. (They do have a pretty good autumnal selection, too, though.)

Fans of 2018’s The Princess Switch will be delighted to hear there’s a sequel this year, The Princess Switch: Switched Again, where Vanessa Hudgens stars as not one, not two, but three of the main characters. If you love a Christmas musical, David E. Tabler’s Jingle Jangle, a film following an esteemed toymaker and his granddaughter, is being released after 20 years in the making. And because we really do deserve it this year, Dolly Parton plays an angel come to save Christmas in Dolly Parton’s Christmas on the Square.

Favourite TV shows that are actually reboots

“If it ain’t broke don’t fix it” is decidedly not the motto that fuels the Hollywood machine. Recent times have seen overpaid studio executives follow the dollar trail deep into the heart of nostalgia, a place where there’s no such thing as a TV show that can’t be completely—and often unnecessarily—rebooted. As with any creative endeavour, some results have fallen flat while others have inserted fresh updates. Here are 20 popular shows that you may not have even known are new takes on old classics.
