It's nearly December, which means that swirling vortex of holiday cheer is coming in quick — do you have all your presents yet? Are you ready to spar with your uncle over the concept of basic human rights?
Regardless of what you're expecting this holiday season, there's one thing you can be sure of: CBC Gem has some stellar new movies and TV to offer.
On December 1, you can catch the exclusive Canadian premiere of the Hugh Bonneville and Jack Lowden-starring The Gold, inspired by the most audacious heist in British history. Starting December 6, you can catch period drama A Gentleman in Moscow, starring Ewan McGregor and based on the best-selling book by Amor Towles. That same day marks the arrival of season 3 of Pamela Adlon's Better Things.
A new episode of the CBC Music Presents: Live at Massey Hall also arrives on December 6, featuring a candid conversation with the Tragically Hip. If you need some just left-of-centre holiday vibes, you can also catch The Night Before, starring Seth Rogen, Joseph Gordon-Levitt and Anthony Mackie on December 6, while Double Holiday and The Great British Baking Show Season 14: New Year's Eve Special arrive on December 23 and 26, respectively.
Beginning December 30, you can celebrate the 10th anniversary of Schitt's Creek with a CBC Gem collection of the most iconic episodes, and a series marathon on the CBC Comedy FAST channel that runs through January 13.
There's all that and so much more coming your way on CBC Gem, and you can also check out the new arrivals on Prime Video, the National Film Board of Canada, Netflix, Disney+ and more.
