Holiday Cheer on Hulu: Top Movies and TV Shows to Binge-Watch This Season
The holiday season has arrived on Hulu, bringing a plethora of Christmas movies to the streaming platform. Among the top 15 movies and TV shows on Hulu, a few Christmas films have already made their mark. This week, our Watch With Us team is featuring a selection of popular Hulu movies and TV shows to binge-watch, with a focus on a parody of holiday movies and a surprising sci-fi film.
Home Alone has made a triumphant return to Hulu, with the first two films ranking in the top five among movies and TV shows. The classic tale follows Kevin McCallister, played by Macaulay Culkin, as he outwits a pair of bumbling burglars, Harry and Marv. The heartwarming connection between Kevin and his neighbor Marley, as well as his mother Kate's frantic search for him, adds depth to the comedic caper. John Candy's memorable cameo as Gus Polinski further enhances the film's charm.
Family Guy has also captured viewers' attention on Hulu, thanks to a new holiday special exclusive to the platform. Titled Disney’s Hulu’s Family Guy’s Hallmark Channel’s Lifetime’s Familiar Holiday Movie, the special follows Lois and Peter Griffin in a classic Hallmark movie-inspired romance set in a small town. The special offers a humorous twist on the familiar holiday movie formula, with the entire Family Guy series available for fans to enjoy.
Osiris, a lesser-known sci-fi film, has found a new audience on Hulu despite its low budget. The movie features a talented cast, including Linda Hamilton, Brianna Hildebrand, and LaMonica Garrett. When a U.S. Special Forces team led by Kelly, played by Max Martini, is abducted and taken aboard an alien ship, they must navigate a perilous journey to escape. The discovery of survivors Ravi and Anya adds complexity to their mission, as they uncover the true intentions of their alien captors.
In conclusion, Hulu's lineup of holiday movies, parodies, and sci-fi films offers something for every viewer this season. Whether you're in the mood for a classic Christmas comedy like Home Alone, a satirical take on holiday romances with Family Guy, or a thrilling sci-fi adventure in Osiris, Hulu has you covered with a diverse selection of binge-worthy entertainment options.
