If you’re already thinking about the holidays, Freeform’s 25 Days of Christmas schedule is here to really get you in the spirit.
While most of the programming you’ll find during the Freeform 25 Days of Christmas is for children and families, other titles like “The Preacher’s Wife” and “Love Actually” are for adults looking for a little holiday magic.
The fun begins Dec. 1 at 7 a.m. ET with “Holiday in Handcuffs” and ends at 11:55 p.m. on Dec. 25 with “Arthur Christmas.” Throughout the Freeform 25 Days of Christmas, you’ll find everything from classics like 1964’s “Rudolph the Red-Nosed Reindeer” and 1968’s “The Little Drummer Boy” to nostalgic ’90s hits like “Home Alone,” “The Santa Clause” and “The Nightmare Before Christmas.”
Notably missing from the list is the Will Ferrel hit “Elf” and National Lampoon’s “Christmas Vacation,” so you’ll need to check out some other television networks for those this year. You can take a look at the full Freeform 25 Days of Christmas schedule below.
