6 Gay AF Specials to Watch During the Holidays
You've been scoffing at the Christmas decorations in CVS for weeks now. But Thanksgiving is a few days away, so you can no longer avoid the holiday cheer.
In case you're having trouble getting into the spirit, these titles will add some holiday queer to your holiday cheer. From Tyra Banks to Dolly Parton to RuPaul, some of our favorite iconic queens are gracing us with TV movies and specials for the season. Put on the cocoa and add these to your queue.
A Legendary Christmas with John and Chrissy
November 28 at 10 p.m. on NBC
"Kiss the holidays 'hello'" with the only couple we care about this Christmas: John Legend and Chrissy Teigen. Named after the newly-minted EGOT's holiday album, this special will be packed with Legend's sweet vocals, Teigen's meme-able facial expressions, and much more. And, good news: They have some famous family and friends along for the ride: Stevie Wonder, Kim Kardashian West, Kris Jenner, Awkwafina, Kelly Clarkson, and Adam Levine. And as if it couldn't get gayer (pun intended), also joining the couple are Jane Lynch, Darren Criss, Meghan Trainor, and Queer Eye's Fab Five: Antoni Porowski, Tan France, Karamo Brown, Bobby Berk, and Jonathan Van Ness.
Life-Size 2
December 2 at 9 p.m. on Freeform
Eve's great. And she's even greater in the sequel. Almost 20 years after the original, the Eve doll (Tyra Banks) is brought to life once again to help Grace (Francia Raisa) get in the holiday spirit and save her mother's company (the creators of Eve!). Banks revives a classic for the millennials who grew up loving the original -- and thankfully, the sequel is filled with queer and PoC representation.
Dumplin'
December 7 on Netflix
Although this one isn't particularly holiday-themed, it's sure to be a favorite during the month of December. Danielle Macdonald (Patti Cake$) plays plus-sized, Dolly Parton-obsessed teenager, Willowdean (aka Dumplin'). Her mother, Rosie (Jennifer Aniston) is a once-great pageant winner and local celebrity. Tired of being overlooked because of her shape, Willowdean enters one of her mom's pageants with the help of some local drag queens (including Ginger Minj).
RuPaul’s Drag Race Holi-Slay Spectacular
December 7 at 8 p.m. on VH1
"Nothing says Christmas like 'Chestnuts roasting on an open fire, and drag queens slipping on their pantyhose,'" says RuPaul, who will be joined by Eureka O'Hara, Jasmine Masters, Kim Chi, Latrice Royale, Mayhem Miller, Shangela, Sonique, and Trixie Mattel for RPDR's first holiday special. The queens will celebrate by competing -- of course -- for the title of "Drag Race Christmas Queen," lip-synching to tracks from (what else?!) Ru's Christmas albums.
Chilling Adventures of Sabrina: A Midwinter’s Tale
December 14 on Netflix
Everyone's favorite teenage witch returns for a special holiday episode that's sure to be chock full of cannibalism, teen angst, and gorgeous sweaters. The newly-platinum blonde Sabrina will celebrate the Church of Night's Satanic Winter Solstice celebration as "families gather around the Yule fire to sing pagan carols and tell ghost stories." Sabrina was one of our favorite new shows this year -- despite a few flaws -- and we can't wait to see how these witches get into the holiday spirit...quite possibly with actual spirits.
Schitt's Creek
December 18 on CBC
The citizens of Schitt's Creek are back for some more ridiculous small town antics. But before kicking off season five, we get to spend the holidays with the Roses. In this holiday special, we get to see what their life was like before going bankrupt and leaving New York. Get ready for some David and Alexis bougieness, some Moira craziness, and some Johnny gifting anxiety.
