Freeform Reveals ’25 Days of Christmas’ Schedule for 2022

Put as many Christmas movies as you want on your wish list. Freeform will probably air them all next month.

Freeform — like Mariah Carey — is wasting no time diving headlong into the Christmas season.

For this year’s 25 Days of Christmas programming block, the Disney-owned basic cable channel will, naturally, show a big sack’s worth of classic Christmas movies of yore. For good measure, Freeform is tossing holiday episodes of popular animated shows like Family Guy into the mix.

25 Days of Christmas will begin Thursday, December 1 at 7 a.m. It’ll run basically all day long until concluding with an 11:30 p.m. airing of Home Alone 2: Lost in New York on the night of Sunday, December 25.

Brainstorm as many Christmas movies as you can, and chances are you’ll see them all listed on Freeform’s schedule. Except for Gremlins, which sticks in our collective craw here at Rare, and Batman Returns, which will probably spur some trolls into action.

The most obvious titles — Home Alone, Frosty the Snowman, Dr. Seuss’ the Grinch (the 2018 version starring Jim Carrey), and Toy Story — will be on so many times that anyone who binge-watches the marathon will probably know all the dialogue by heart.

25 Days of Christmas!

Freeform actually revealed its yuletide lineup on the same day its 31 Nights of Halloween marathon ended. The cable channel aired Treehouse of Horror episodes — courtesy of The Simpsons, of course — as the last installment of that series.

The cable channel said in a statement issued in conjunction with the schedule: “It’s the most wonderful time of the year! … So pour yourself an eggnog and grab a plate of cookies, Christmas is practically here.”

We’ll let you decide whether Christmas is “practically here,” or if Freeform and Mariah Carey are tossing tinsel too early this time around.

At any rate, go here for the full lineup of Freeform’s 25 Days of Christmas.
