Ah, the December holiday season that certain religiously or culturally inclined folks often refer to as "Christmas". The perfect time of year to travel across the country to your hometown and reconnect with family — what's that? A global pandemic and rising winter-time cases are going to make traveling and social gatherings nigh on impossible. Hmm. Well, at least it's the perfect time for TV! And Freeform's annual "25 Days of Christmas" programming ensures you'll have plenty of delightfully jolly holiday films to soothe what ails ya.
We've got not one but two Home Alones (the second one is better, let's not get into it right now). We've got that classic "I accidentally murdered Santa and now must become him" classic The Santa Clause. We've got a bunch of Simpsons Christmas episodes. We've got, um, Daddy's Home 2. And many more treats in your televisual stocking (though Daddy's Home 2 is likely more coal).
Check out the full program schedule below, and if you need more Freeform Xmas programming in your life, here's their November calendar.
