It is that time of year ago when you just stay inside with a blanket on and watch Christmas specials for a month straight. And ABC Family is happy to accommodate with its 25 Days of Christmas (Harry Potter and Pixar marathons notwithstanding). Some highlights include new original movie 12 Dates of Christmas (12/11 at 8:00) starring Amy Smart and Mark-Paul Gosselaar who relive the same Christmas Eve first date over and over again Groundhog Day style until she learns to open up and stop living in the past. This year also features the ABC Family premieres of Harry Potter and the Half Blood Prince (12/4 at 8:30), Disney/Pixar’s Up (12/16 at 9:00) and one of the all time great holiday classics, National Lampoon’s Christmas Vacation.

For those that missed ABC Family’s other new original movie this year Desperately Seeking Santa (which for some reason they premiered before Thanksgiving), you can currently watch the full movie on Hulu. Or just check it out below:
Thank you so much for posting the schedule! I actually work on behalf of the network, and am not afraid to say that I have been glued to my TV since this countdown started! Has anybody else been watching? Would love to hear what your favorite Christmas movies are!
ReplyDeleteI usually start watching the 25 Days of Christmas when it gets about to be a week before Christmas. As for my favorite Christmas movie, I always enjoy any version of A Christmas Carol.
ReplyDeleteThat is awesome! Hopefully you considered starting the Christmas movie watching a little earlier this year! 12 Dates of Christmas aired on Sunday…and though it’s not A Christmas Carol, it could easily become a new favorite!
