If there's one thing that the best streaming services are lacking, its holiday variety specials with singing, costume changes, comedy sketches and celebrity guests – enter Sabrina Carpenter and A Nonsense Christmas. When Netflix announced the holiday music variety special, I immediately posted it in the group chat I share with my closest friends and being the Sabrina super stans that we are, our reactions were a little more than excited.
The 50-minute Netflix special (released on December 6) is the perfect hybrid of SNL and I Love Lucy, paying homage to American comedy of the past and present – with twice the celebrity guests and costume changes. But beneath the cheeky innuendos and festive musical numbers is a modern bona fide pop star with a knack for hosting and making you feel welcomed, which is why A Nonsense Christmas is easily one of the new best Netflix shows for me.
