Holidays are for cozy blankets, warm drinks, and wrapping yourself in stories that transport you to another world. Lucky for you (and us), Lionsgate Play has a handpicked lineup of binge-worthy series that’ll have you glued to the screen faster than you can say, “Where’s the remote?”
From nostalgic drama to pulse-pounding action and heartwarming musicals, here’s your perfect streaming menu for the unforgettable holiday season. Grab your blanket, settle in, and let the binge-fest begin!
1. Mad Men
Start your binge fest with the moody brilliance of Mad Men. Set in the slick, whiskey-soaked advertising world of the ’60s, this series is a masterpiece of drama and questionable life choices. Don Draper (Jon Hamm), with his flawless suits and complicated personal life, will reel you in, but the show’s entire cast of characters will keep you hooked. Catch the style, catch the drama—and maybe pour yourself an Old Fashioned while you’re at it.
2. Paris Has Fallen
Need something to counteract the warm fuzzies of the festive season? Enter Paris Has Fallen. With explosive drama (and literal explosions), this action-packed series will crank up your adrenaline. Because nothing screams “holiday spirit” like saving the world one city at a time, right?
3. Zoey’s Extraordinary Playlist
What would you do if you could suddenly hear people’s inner thoughts through pop songs? That’s Zoey’s new superpower in Zoey’s Extraordinary Playlist, and honestly, we’re here for it. Quirky, emotional, and packed with epic musical numbers, this series will have you laughing, crying, and singing along before the credits roll.
4. Normal People
Feel like breaking your heart a little this holiday? Normal People understood the assignment. This beautifully told story of Marianne (Daisy Edgar-Jones) and Connell (Paul Mescal) is as raw and real as it gets. It’s about love in all its messy forms, navigating complex relationships, and growing with the pain of being human. Maybe grab tissues. Definitely grab tissues.
5. Killing Eve
If you haven’t yet dived into Killing Eve, where have you been?! This cat-and-mouse drama between Eve (Sandra Oh), a whip-smart MI6 agent, and Villanelle (Jodie Comer), a dangerously charming assassin, is nothing short of addictive. It’s sharp, funny, and just the right amount of twisted, with characters you’ll love and hate equally.
6. Power Franchise
Want your holiday streaming to last long into the New Year? Hello, Power Franchise. Created by The Good Wife writer Courtney A. Kemp in collaboration with 50 Cent (who plays recurring character Kanan Stark in the series), this gripping franchise follows the high-stakes world of crime. Starting with the hit series Power and followed by Power Book II, III, and IV, there’s plenty of story to go around. Plus, everyone knows it’s not the holidays without a bit of family drama.
Whether you’re in the mood to laugh, cry, or sit on the edge of your seat, Lionsgate Play’s catalog has you covered.
