New on HBO Now: All the Movies and TV Coming in December

The end of the year sees a lot of movies leaving HBO Now, along with the finales of a number of its own shows. Most notably, the sensation of the season, Westworld, airs its season finale on Dec. 4, and we’re not going to see it again for a while after that, so enjoy it while you can. Insecure and Divorce are also ending this month, but if Twitter is anything to go by, people don’t have time for Issa Rae or Sarah Jessica Parker when there are Westworld theories to argue over.

In a bit of good news, though, Pete Holmes’ new comedy special Faces and Sounds debuts on Dec. 3. In non-HBO projects, Key and Peele’s underappreciated Keanu makes its streaming debut on HBO, along with the Coen brothers’ charming if underwhelming Hail, Caeser!

If you’re looking for holiday-themed fare, you’ve got a couple of good selections for any mood: Bad Santa is there if you’re looking for a raunchy comedy, Jim Carrey’s How the Grinch Stole Christmas is good for some over-the-top family fun, Miracle on 34th Street brings that classic Christmas vibe, and if you’re looking for something overrated and mediocre, there’s Home Alone. Along with those movies, HBO also has the uncontested greatest Christmas movie of all time: The Muppet Christmas Carol.

Unfortunately, the end of the year seems to be signaling a mass exodus from HBO Now, with titles like Snakes on a Plane, Scarface, Dog Day Afternoon, Dumb and Dumber, High Fidelity and a lot more leaving the service.
