New Hulu Shows and Movies in December 2023

It's a busy time of year, but Hulu is making it a little bit easier on everyone by not releasing a lot of new originals in December. The 12th — and final — season of cult hit Canadian comedy Letterkenny is the highlight of the month; if you're not spending the rest of your time watching the first 11 seasons, you could also check out the British heist thriller Culprits, the queer documentary We Live Here: The Midwest, or the compelling docuseries Science Fair: The Series. Beyond that, Hulu is apparently granting you the gift of chilling out. Enjoy Paddington 2 with your family, and don't sleep on certified holiday classic The Muppet Christmas Carol before it leaves the streamer at the end of the year.

Check out everything coming to and leaving Hulu in December below, plus our picks for the best of the month.

The best new shows and movies on Hulu in December

We Live Here: The Midwest (Dec. 6)

As queer communities across the country are facing a resurgence of discrimination, this documentary centers on the families and local leaders — including a trans/queer family in Iowa, a Black gay couple in Nebraska, a lesbian couple in Kansas, and a queer Minnesota state representative — pushing for acceptance in the Midwest. [Trailer]

Culprits (Dec. 8)

Everybody loves a heist thriller, and Culprits qualifies — though it's more concerned with what happens after the heist. The British series follows a crew of experts who apparently pulled off a big job and have since scattered, taking on new identities, only to be pulled back together when someone starts killing them off one by one. Nathan Stewart-Jarrett, Gemma Arterton, Kirby Howell-Baptiste, and Eddie Izzard star. [Trailer]

Science Fair: The Series (Dec. 11)

Give this show straight A's. This three-part docuseries is essentially a second round of the excellent 2018 documentary film Science Fair and follows students as they compete at the International Science and Engineering Fair, the most competitive science fair on the planet, using their brains to solve real-world problems like climate change and world hunger. The intelligent and driven kids are all remarkable, but the competition is fierce. Think of it as The Hunger Games, but with more good causes and fewer lethal endings. -Tim Surette [Trailer]

Letterkenny Season 12 (Dec. 26)

Pitter patter, let's get at 'er — one last time. Season 12 will be the end of the road for Jared Keeso's cult hit Canadian comedy, set in a rural community full of hicks, hockey players, and other eccentrics who are as happy making bawdy jokes as they are rattling off lightning-fast wordplay. Its spin-off, Shoresy, lives on, but for now, let's make this last trip to Letterkenny count.
