On-demand Hulu offers way more classic Christmas movies now in 2023 than it has in years past. But even with those additions, Hulu’s strength lies in its seemingly endless list of Christmas romance movies, holiday horror films, and festive background-noise specials to occupy your TV while you open presents.

Christmas romances on Hulu
Hulu offers a ton of Christmas–themed romances in its holiday section. Mostly, they’re the type of made-for-TV movies you’d also find on Hallmark, Lifetime, or Freeform, but Hulu also owns Happiest Season, which would have gotten a full theatrical release if not for the pandemic.
