Yes, Scrooged is available to watch via streaming on Amazon Prime Video & Paramount Plus.
In this modern take on Charles Dicken’s A Christmas Carol, the audiences are introduced to a grumpy, ambitious and ruthless Frank Cross, more of a twentieth-century version of Ebenezer Scrooge, who will do anything for success and recognition — be it firing his diligent Executive, Eliot Loudermilk, or gifting cheap meager presents to those who work below him.
Frank’s curmudgeonly nature even distances him from his girlfriend, Claire, who barely cares about him after the latter moves to a homeless shelter. However, things take a drastic change in his life after a series of ghosts appear before him and show him his miserable fate in the future which is driven by his haughty attitude towards others. But will Frank make amends and change his ways?
