Our take

A Paw Patrol Christmas is a US G holiday special on Paramount Plus and Netflix. Santa catches a cold and Mayor Humdinger tries to steal presents from the North Pole, so the pups have to save Christmas. Expect mild cartoon chase peril, a sick Santa and classic PAW Patrol teamwork. There is no language, substance use or scary content beyond silly villain schemes. Fine for preschool PAW Patrol fans.

Uplifting themes

Teamwork, generosity and saving Christmas for everyone sit at the heart of the special Ryder and the pups model helpfulness and holiday spirit throughout

Story (may spoil tone)

Rubble is looking forward to Santa bringing him a new laser drill, but finds that Santa has come down with a cold and can’t deliver any presents. When Mayor Humdinger decides he’s going to the North Pole to take all the gifts for himself, it’s up to the PAW Patrol to stop him.
