Avengers: Infinity War and Everything Else Hitting Netflix in December
Ah, the holiday season: a time to be thankful for the good things in life, a time to reunite with family, and a time to binge-watch the crap out of whatever is on your favorite streaming service. Winter truly is the most wonderful time of the year to get lost in a new movie or television series. There’s nothing more satisfying on a cold December day than cuddling up on the couch in your fuzzy socks, getting buried under a pile of blankets, and drinking hot chocolate on a lazy holiday afternoon.
Is there stuff to do outside? Um … yeah, I’m sure there is. Like hiking? Yeah, hiking, that’s a thing people do. But this isn’t a hiking website, so we’re bringing you everything that’s dropping on Netflix in December. Besides, the outdoors is highly overrated, am I right? (Editor’s note: She isn’t).
