Personal Shopper

Kristen Stewart offers up an exquisite performance in one of the year’s best psychological thrillers. It may not earn any major awards this season, but it’s still well worth a watch.

Guardians of the Galaxy, Vol. 2 

GOTG, Vol. 2 is the rare sequel that actually lives up to the original. Weird, heartfelt, and a hell of a lot of fun — if you’re feeling the holiday stress, this is the perfect film to decompress with.

Embrace the ’90s nostalgia and indulge in this marvelous bit of Tim Allen ridiculousness. The Santa Clause is cheesy and very much of its time, but for adults of a certain age, it’s also a certified holiday classic.

Bunheads Season 1 /h4>

Gilmore Girls’ creator Amy Sherman-Palladino’s ode to dance was cut down in its prime. But that’s no reason not to enjoy every quirky, visually stunning moment of Bunheads’ first and only season.

Dawn French and Jennifer Saunders are the comedy duo that you didn’t know you needed in your life. Sit back and laugh along with seven Christmas specials featuring the queens of sketch comedy.

Gunpowder

Game of Thrones’ fans, this one’s for you. Kit Harington stars as Robert Catesby, the man behind the failed Gunpowder Plot of 1605. If you miss seeing Harington glower as he fights against seemingly insurmountable odds as Jon Snow, then you’ll love this miniseries.

The Last Post

In 1965, British soldiers and their wives live together in Aden. The Last Post chronicles the experience from the points of view of the women and the men whose families were put to this test.

Black Mirror Season 4
