Christmas List

Christmas List, in the US on fuboTV and Philo, and in the UK on Lionsgate+ Amazon Channels, does something a lot of comedies forget to: it's consistently funny. It says what it needs to say in one sitting, no filler. Its 6/10 TMDB score, built from 64 ratings, reflects a title that consistently delivers. Alicia Witt leads a cast with real comic timing. Start it on fuboTV whenever you need something guaranteed to land.

Part of the current wave of titles people are actually watching, Christmas List earns its spot. Sharp writing and a well-matched ensemble are what separate Christmas List from the crowd. Isobel Gray plans a storybook Christmas with her boyfriend, including a snow-covered cottage in the Northwest, and a carefully composed bucket list of classic holiday traditions. But when the boyfriend goes AWOL, the list proves challenging and a tempting new romance turns her life upside down. Will Isobel have a White Christmas ending under the mistletoe? Alicia Witt and Gabriel Hogan lead a cast with the timing to make it work. It hit screens in 2016. The real test of any comedy is whether it is still funny once you know all the jokes, and Christmas List holds up on rewatch in a way that separates it from one-off curiosities. It delivers reliably on what it promises, which is more than most of its competition manages.

If you need a comedy that actually makes you laugh, Christmas List is a strong candidate. It stands on its own even without an obvious comparison point. Short enough to finish in one sitting, substantial enough to feel satisfying. Alicia Witt's comic timing carries it through its weaker moments. The kind of comedy you recommend to someone who claims they do not watch much.
