This weekend may be Halloween, but you’ll soon be in the holiday spirit. The upcoming week brings the new Netflix original movie A Dog’s Perfect Christmas, which introduces Winstead, a trusty basset hound who does whatever it takes to keep his household together during a difficult season. Dennis Quaid, Mary Steenburgen, Milo Ventimiglia, Jennifer Tilly, and Thomas Haden Church are among the cast of the heartfelt film, based on the book by bestselling author W. Bruce Cameron, who also wrote A Dog’s Purpose.

If a second season of the darkly funny spy thriller Black Doves is on your wish list, then here’s one gift you can unwrap early. Helen (Keira Knightley) and Sam (Ben Whishaw) are together again, but as they search for answers, loyalties are weaponized, trust is shattered, and the fight to protect the people they love could cost them everything. 

The movies and shows available to stream this week also include the animated steampunk Western series Bass X Machina, the stand-up comedy special Mike Tyson: Return of the Mike, and the sophomore season of the charming comedy North of North. There’s plenty to keep you company while decorating your home for the holidays.

Scroll on for all the titles coming to Netflix the week of Oct. 30 through Nov. 5.
