What's Leaving Netflix In December 2016?

Thanksgiving weekend is just around the corner, and aside from family, food and friends, we can think of one more thing to be thankful for: a long weekend to binge-watch some of your favorite movies and shows on Netflix before they’re gone.

Films like “50 First Dates,” “American Beauty” and your childhood favorite “Spy Kids” are all leaving, as are “Elizabeth: The Golden Age” and “Valley of the Dolls.”

To borrow a line from “Top Gun,” another title leaving the streaming service in December, we say, it’s time to take these movies to bed or lose them forever:
