Freeform's '25 Days of Christmas' Lineup Is Finally Here and It Includes 'Rudolph' for the First Time
There's really nothing better than curling up with a mug of hot cocoa and watching a classic Christmas movie with the fam during the holiday season. As always, one of the best places to catch all your favorite Christmas flicks on TV is the Freeform channel, thanks to the network's annual 25 Days of Christmas event.
Knowing how much folks love to watch Home Alone and How the Grinch Stole Christmas on repeat during the colder months, Freeform airs the very best holiday-themed (or generally uplifting) movies 25 days in a row throughout the month of December. Some of the films are heartwarming and nostalgic, while others will make you sob uncontrollably. No matter what though, there's always something on the lineup for everybody, including the kids.
This year in particular is a special one. The lineup will include Rudolph the Red-Nosed Reindeer and Frosty the Snowman for the first time ever, according to BroadwayWorld.com. While the movies usually appear on NBC or CBC, this is the first time they will be shown on cable. Plus, Deadline reports that this December Freeform will be airing a present-wrapping competition reality series called Wrap Battles. The series will feature top DIY-ers as they battle it out in various challenges with the hopes of winning a $50,000 prize.
Besides tuning into Freeform on TV, you can watch 25 Days of Christmas on Freeform.go.com and use your TV provider login info to access the movies there. If you have an Apple TV, Samsung Smart TV, Amazon Fire Stick, Android, or iOS device, you can download the Freeform app to watch all the Christmas movies on the go. Freeform is also available on Hulu or Hulu + Live TV, Sling, YouTube TV, and Playstation Vue.
Now, without further ado, here is Freeform's 25 Days of Christmas schedule for 2019:
