Get ready for the holiday with Chip and Joanna Gaines! The Fixer Upper stars debut two Magnolia holiday specials in December streaming on discovery+ as part of its exclusive seasonal lineup. For those who have more of a sweet tooth heading into the holidays, Joanna’s “Holiday Candy” episode of Magnolia Table with Joanna Gaines premieres Dec. 3 on the streamer, as the HGTV star shares one of her favorite holiday traditions – making candy to give as gifts to friends and family.
Then, on Friday, Dec. 10, viewers can catch the Season 2 premiere of Family Dinner and join along as host Andrew Zimmern visits families across America to explore how the cultural, regional and historical facets of how who we are informs what and how we eat. These new Magnolia titles will be some of the many offerings on the discovery+ Holiday Central hub, which includes scripted content like Candy Coated Christmas with Ree Drummond, true-crime documentary Fruitcake Fraud, premiering Dec. 1, and The Pioneer Woman’s Hometown: Holiday Themes on Dec. 11. The Pioneer Woman herself celebrates Drummond’s small town of Pawhuska, Oklahoma with a trio of holiday gems – A Very Ice Cream Christmas, Christmas Sleepover and Christmas Magic at the Mercantile.
