Tis the season for holiday-themed fare and the streaming services are capitalizing on that with a blitz of new stuff that they hope will find a place on your list of festive classics. Netflix has the yule log blazing with a number of holiday originals including “Let it Snow,” “Klaus,” “The Knight Before Christmas” and “Merry Happy Whatever,” the new series starring Dennis Quaid. Disney Plus launched with mostly TV series, but it also has “Noelle,” starring Anna Kendrick and Bill Hader, who play Santa’s adult kids who have to save Christmas. The original version of “Miracle on 34th Street” is on Disney Plus, but “White Christmas” is not available for streaming. There are no Rudolph or Frosty specials or “It’s a Charlie Brown Christmas.” “It’s a Wonderful Life” and “A Christmas Story” are also missing from streaming services.
