There is no shortage of progressive, original holiday programming on Netflix this year (you’re welcome). Case in point: Single All the Way, Netflix’s first original gay Christmas movie, stars Michael Urie as Peter, an unlucky-in-love Los Angeles single whose family back home in New Hampshire decides to play matchmaker. The film is actually kind of revelatory, bypassing predictable (read: tired) coming-out narratives and instead illuminating what it’s like to be queer in a supportive family. (Maybe even too supportive? Watch it before reading any further.)

In another new holiday flick, Love Hard, a dating and relationship columnist thinks she has finally met her match; he just happens to live 3,000 miles away. Hijinks ensue, but, most importantly, the movie remixes/flips traditional rom-com tropes by making catfishing seem like a good idea. Both films are a total joy — you’ll laugh, you’ll cry, you’ll definitely call your mom.
