This is the season of familiar screen favorites. Every year, we re-watch holiday staples, but now, as is customary in the streaming age, we're finding some in different places. " A Charlie Brown Christmas ," for example, is streaming on Apple TV+ and "Downton Abbey" —a Christmas tradition for the past decade—is streaming on Peacock.

"The Crown," Netflix's drama that views 20th-century history through the eyes of Queen Elizabeth II and the British royal family , returns for its fourth season on Sunday. While previous seasons have seen the royals during events like the Cold War and the moon landing, the new season sees Gillian Anderson's Margaret Thatcher become prime minister and Emma Corrin's Lady Diana Spencer become the Princess of Wales.
