New Year's Eve means going out, having some drinks, and ringing in the new year with style - but those drinks often mean that New Years Day is spent lying on the couch, ordering pizza, questioning your life choices¦ and binge-watching some Netflix. It's a proud New Year tradition for many, but be careful with your Netflix-planning: January 1st means saying goodbye to a lot of great movies and TV shows as they leave the streaming service for good. So don't plan on watching any of these 80s and 90s classics, moreish TV series, or other streamable gems while nursing a hangover, because these fifteen are gone for good.Of course, there are still a couple of weeks left in December to squeeze in a few last hours of Netflix-time if there are a few on this list that you haven't got around to watching yet (perfect way to spend that holiday vacation!). And even if it's not possible to watch every single one, there are some great new additions to Netflix coming this January as well.Related: 15 Shows And Movies You Didn't Know Were Coming To Netflix In December

15. ET

et phone home

This sweet classic from the 80s redefined the alien movie, as Elliott (Henry Thomas) and the Extra-Terrestrial became friends on the run from the law. From iconic moments like the bicycle across the moon or the alien hiding in the closet, to the equally wonderful scenes that you've probably forgotten about, ET is definitely a classic worth a re-watch.

Leaving: 1/1/18

14. Forrest Gump

Forrest Gump sitting on a bench in the 1994 movie.

Tom Hank's brilliant turn as Forrest, the simple man who lived an incredible life. This movie isn't a short one, at just under two and a half hours long, but it is well worth the time commitment. From his childhood in Alabama through the biggest events of his lifetime, Forrest Gump is a love story, a comedy, and a tearjerker from start to finish.

Leaving: 1/1/18

13. Mean Girls

Remember a time when Lindsay Lohan was a star on the rise, and lip gloss was everything? Don't miss out on Cady (Lohan) struggling to fit in at her new high school with Regina George (Rachel McAdams) and the Plastics in this incredibly quotable teen flick. Watch Mean Girls on a Wednesday and don't forget to wear pink.

Leaving: 1/1/18

12. Pulp Fiction

Pulp Fiction - Cropped

This Tarantino classic is a must-watch for film buffs, as well as for anyone who just hasn't seen it yet (but probably knows half of the scenes from the number of times they've been parodied!). Pulp Fiction's brand of black comedy crime is a classic for a reason, and it's worth watching for John Travolta and Samuel L Jackson's badassery alone.

Leaving: 1/1/18

11. Lost

This one might be a time commitment, but for those few who still haven't seen how the story of the lost passengers of Oceanic 815 turns out, it's time to get bingeing before the end of the month! The entire six seasons of Lost are currently on Netflix, and while two weeks probably isn't enough time to watch the entire thing, there's still time to finish a final few episodes before we say goodbye.

Leaving: 1/4/18

10. Futurama

It's a sad day for Futurama and Netflix fans, as the remaining seasons of the animated series are being taken off the service. There was uproar when Netflix dropped the first few seasons earlier this year, and now it looks like the final few seasons are leaving as well. They're not gone till the end of the month, though, so there's still time to watch.

Leaving: 1/30/18

9. Gremlins

Another 80s classic, Gremlins' special effects may not have aged well (there are moments where literal strings can be seen), but the basic concept is still fantastic. Tiny, adorable, furry critter transformed and unleashing a horde of mini-monsters on the city? Always worth the watch.

Leaving: 1/1/18

The Jigsaw doll in Saw.

8. (Almost) All The Saw Movies

Technically, there is one film in the Saw franchise that won't be leaving Netflix this month; Jigsaw hasn't yet been on the streaming service, as it was only released in theaters this fall! However, the rest of the series, from Saw through Saw: The Final Chapter, will be leaving Netflix on Jan 1st. Time for horror fans to get a final binge in!

Leaving: 1/1/18

7. Miss Congeniality (And Miss Congeniality 2)

Sandra Bullock in Miss Congeniality 2

Sandra Bullock as a clumsy, unrefined FBI agent going undercover at a beauty pageant? There's a reason that Miss Congeniality has something of a cult following, and it's because it is pure pink comedy at it's best. The follow-up, Miss Congeniality 2, sadly didn't live up to the original, and is also leaving Netflix in January.

Leaving: 1/1/18

6. Mona Lisa Smile

Julia Roberts in Mona Lisa Smile

This underrated star-studded drama is perfect end-of-year viewing for feminists feeling sick and tired of 2017. Julia Roberts is a college art professor at Wellesley in the 1950s in Mona Lisa Smile, and she teaches her students so much more than just Jackson Pollock. A story about challenging social expectations and gaining independence, it's a perfect feel-good flick to end the year on a happy note.

Leaving: 1/1/18

5. Law & Order SVU

Stabler and Benson on Law & Order: SVU

Last January, Netflix lost one season of Law & Order: SVU, leaving only years 14 through 17 on the service. Now, these final four seasons of the police procedural are on the way out, as they (presumably) shift to Hulu to join the rest of the Law & Order franchise. Time for some dark and gritty Christmas bingeing¦

Leaving: 1/1/18

4. The Mighty Ducks

It's the right season to give this 90s family comedy one last watch, and root for the underdog hockey team that warms the heart of Emilio Estevez's big city lawyer turned unwilling coach. The Mighty Ducks even inspired a professional hockey team, The Mighty Ducks Of Anaheim! Fans of the series will, however, be glad to hear that the follow ups, D2 and D3, aren't going anywhere (although they aren't available in all regions).

Leaving: 1/1/18

3. Grease

Olivia Newton-John and John Travolta standing together in Grease

If you've got chills, and they're multiplying¦ it might be because the ultimate musical is leaving Netflix this month, as Grease bids farewell to the streaming service. The sing-along antics of Danny and Sandy have been thrilling fans since the 70s, but now the movie will be gone faster than greased lightning.

Leaving: 1/1/18

2. Police Academy

Yet another dose of 80s nostalgia no longer available on Netflix as of New Year's Day is Police Academy, a straight up comedy about a police academy that opens its doors to anyone who wants to train - no matter what! It's not the most cerebral comedy in the world, but it was a surprising success and spawned an entire franchise.

Leaving: 1/1/18

1. The Addams Family

The Addams Family

The Addams Family may seem like more of a Halloween movie, but there's no reason not to watch it at Christmas - goth comedy goodness can be enjoyed all year round! This is definitely one to cut through the Christmas schmaltz with a little black humor before it's gone for good.
