With an endless amount of seasonal movies that exist, Black representation in the festive film genre is on a slow incline thanks to streaming originals (Netflix's Jingle Jangle: A Christmas Journey) and networks like Lifetime and Hallmark, whose cheesy, lighthearted holiday fare (Merry Liddle Christmas) dominates this time of year. Then there are some classics in the subgenre, like 1996's The Preacher's Wife, which are always worth a revisit.
