Netflix finishes out 2017 with one of its best months of the year, which is certainly great news for those of you that will have plenty of free time — or need a way to pass the time traveling — this holiday season.

The December additions include Planet Earth IIGuardians of the Galaxy Vol. 2, The Crown (Season 2), Peaky Blinders (Season 4), a new Dave Chappelle special, and Bright, a big-budget Netflix fantasy crime film with Will Smith.

Unfortunately, we’ll also lose some popular movies and shows this month, including Seasons 1-11 of It’s Always Sunny in Philadelphia (dammit).

Here’s a full look at what’s coming to Netflix in December. (I’ve put some notable titles in bold to try to help you out, but keep in mind there may be some selections you find more important than I do):
