Freeform Just Shared Its 'Kickoff to Christmas' Movie Schedule for 2019
We've got all the details on Freeform's 2019 "25 Days of Christmas" event.
The network will broadcast Rudolph the Red-Nosed Reindeer and Frosty the Snowman for the first time in cable history.
They've also shared November's "Kickoff to Christmas" movie schedule.
Like opening your presents early? Then you're in luck: Freeform just gave all of us the best gift ever—a whole two months before December.
The network has already announced several additions to their 2019 rendition of their annual Christmas event, "25 Days of Christmas," and each is more exciting than the last. In fact, some are downright historic.
But this week, they shared even more info to amp us up for the holidays—including the lineup for their "Kickoff to Christmas" special. Here's everything we know so far:
What's new this year?
In 2019, for the first time ever on cable TV, "25 Days of Christmas" will include Rudolph the Red-Nosed Reindeer and Frosty the Snowman, reports BroadwayWorld. We can't wait to cozy up by the fire to enjoy those classics!
What else can we expect to see?
Rudolph and Frosty aren't the only Christmas favorites you can expect to catch come holiday time. They'll make their small-screen debut alongside several other family-friendly titles in the lineup, including Santa Claus is Comin' to Town, The Little Drummer Boy, and more.
And as if that's not enough excitement for one announcement, the network also let on that they'll be premiering a new holiday series this year called "Wrap Battle." Yes, DIYers, that's exactly what it sounds like: a creative gift-wrapping competition!
According to Deadline, contestants will receive various challenges at the start of each episode, and they'll have to duke it out, Iron Chef style. It's elimination-based, too, so you can expect to see some healthy competition among the crafters.
When will "25 Days of Christmas" begin—and how can I watch?
Expect the round-the-clock Christmas programming to begin on December 1, 2019 and conclude 25 days later (December 25—or Christmas Day!). If you don't have Freeform, you can always stream the network here.
How about "Kickoff to Christmas"?
