There's just a few days left until Christmas, which means it's prime time to kick your holiday spirit into high gear. Besides blasting "All I Want For Christmas Is You" while wrapping the presents for under the tree, nothing screams Christmastime more than watching holiday-themed movies that leave us feeling a bit more jolly — especially when eggnog is involved.

And luckily for Netflix subscribers, 'tis the season to start streaming all your favorite classic Christmas movies, along with Christmas-themed episodes of favorite TV shows and stand-alone specials on the platform.

Things kicked off early on Netflix with the Christmas special A Very Murray Christmas that became available on Dec. 4. And after you become impressed with Miley Cyrus' take on "Silent Night," make sure to add Christmas with the Kranks, The Legend of Frosty the Snowman, and The Nightmare Before Christmas to your queue.

The holiday-themed episode of Glee titled "A Very Glee Christmas" is also available, and Black Mirror's "White Christmas" special from 2014 will be available on Dec. 25.

Remember that Netflix also has plenty of non-Christmas related content that has been added this month, so those who are looking for other titles can check out the full list here.

But get your cookies and milk ready because here's the full list of Christmas movies, TV series and specials to stream on Netflix.

MOVIES

Love Actually (2003)

I'll Be Home For Christmas (1998)

Director: Ariene Sanford

Still, he will stop at nothing to make it home, learning some valuable lessons along the way.

A Christmas Carol (1938)

We all know the classic movie that plays each year, but this sequel starring our favorite snowman takes Frosty to Evergreen to show children that magic is real. Although nothing can beat the original movie, this title is a perfectly goofy yet sentimental film we need to stream right now.
