NFL Christmas Gameday

The 3D catalogue: film cases on wooden shelves, with the cat sitting at the counter next to its greeting.

The catalogue in 3D

The film shelves have a room of their own that you can walk around in. The cat behind the counter is the AI Catbot, and they pick real films from the same catalogue when you tell them what you feel like watching. Nothing is for sale, here or in there. Go in from here and this series is already out on the counter, with more like it waiting on the shelf next to it.

What happens

The American subscription streaming service Netflix began to broadcast National Football League (NFL) games beginning in the 2024 season; the service has generally focused on isolated rights to standalone regular season games promoted as events. Initially under a three-year deal beginning in 2024, the service has broadcast a Christmas Day doubleheader, billed as NFL Christmas Gameday; the games have featured entertainment-oriented components, including appearances by personalities from Netflix original programming as celebrity correspondents during their pregame shows, and the second game featuring a halftime show headlined by a major recording artist. These Christmas Day games have historically been produced by CBS Sports using personnel from the NFL on CBS, with NFL Media producing surrounding coverage from its studios in Inglewood, and EverWonder Studio coordinating the presentation for Netflix. In May 2026, Netflix renewed its rights to the NFL through 2029; beginning in the 2026 season, the service will add three additional games per-season, including a Week 1 game, a Wednesday-night game prior to Thanksgiving, and a Week 18 Saturday game, in addition to at least one Christmas Day game per-year from 2027 onward. It will also become the exclusive broadcaster of the NFL Honors. As per NFL rules for nationally televised games not on free-to-air television, the telecasts are simulcast by television stations in the home markets of the participating teams.
