Hallmark and Great American Family Have Already Announced Their Holiday Lineup

It's barely the start of pumpkin spice season, but Hallmark Channel is already ready to start the "most wonderful time of the year." The channel has laid out its plans for the upcoming holiday movie season, which kicks off with its round-the-clock holiday programming on Friday, October 20th. They just announced that the Hallmark Channel's Countdown to Christmas and Hallmark Movies' Miracles of Christmas will ring in the yuletide season. There are 40 new original movie premieres that will roll out across Hallmark Channel, Hallmark Movies & Mysteries, and its subscription streaming service Hallmark Movies Now for the 2023 holiday season. On Turkey Day it will be a Merry Thanksgiving Weekend and feature an "all-new original movie premiere." Hallmark shared, "Starting Friday, November 24, and continuing through Sunday, November 26 fans can take a break from their holiday shopping and enjoy a double feature with new movies premiering at 6 p.m. and 8 p.m. ET each night." Hallmark Movies Now is saying there are hundreds of holiday titles and will give users early access to exclusive movies. So, if you're craving that one Christmas movie where the uptight career woman gets stranded back in her small hometown. Then, during the holidays, she runs into and falls in love with that cute but former dork from high school. Yeah, they’ve got that and many more. Not to be outdone, Great American Family has also announced its Christmas programming for this holiday season. Great American Christmas is also back on Friday, October 20, with the first premiere of holiday programming on Saturday, October 21. It will comprise 20 holiday films and some other holiday programming this year. Actors like Danica McKellar, Candice Cameron Bure, and Chad Michael Murray will appear in the films. A full list of release dates will be coming soon. It looks like the most wonderful time of the year to going to be another fun and festive jolly time for all.
