Holiday Movie Guide

Mark Your Calendar With Your Favorites

By Macaroni Kid Roseville-Rocklin-Lincoln November 28, 2023


Who's ready for Christmas movies? Hallmark has its 2023 Countdown to Christmas schedule out. My cousin told me his wife has taken control of the remote for the season and he is forbidden to change the channel away from Hallmark again this year! The website Mostly Christmas also has a schedule.

Netflix has Christmas movies; you can check out all the new ones here.
You can find more Christmas movie schedules here too!

Freeform (formally ABC Family) has a Christmas movie list out, also. The list is below. The schedule is subject to change so it's always best to check the website to confirm. Even if you don't have cable there are ways to watch Freeform. The site GroundedReason can help explain how to do it.

Their official 25 Days of Christmas starts on December 1st.  Scroll down to see the schedule. What’s great is if you miss a movie one time, chances are it is on the schedule again. Mark your calendar with your favorites!
