Every year, ABC Family supplies viewers with weeks of holiday cheer with 25 Days of Christmas. The network recently revealed their full lineup of scheduled programming and it's filled with images of claymation elves, family values, reindeer, and of course old St. Nick. So clear your schedule and whip up some eggnog, because this list is bound to put anyone in the Christmas spirit, featuring Home Alone, Elf, A Christmas Carol and many more.
The schedule kicks off on Dec. 1 with classic films like The Preacher's Wife starring the late Whitney Houston and Denzel Washington and Dr. Seuss' How the Grinch Stole Christmas (live action) and will conclude on Christmas day (Dec. 25) with movies like Tim Burton's The Nightmare Before Christmas and Santa Clause is Coming to Town.
ABC Family will also debut the remastered versions of two Jim Henson classics including The Bells of Fraggle Rock and Emmet Otter's Jug Band Christmas. Disney Pixar fans have something to celebrate as well, because on Dec. 13 they can catch a six-hour Toy Story marathon featuring old friends like Buzz Lightyear and Woody, as well as, some of the newer characters like Jessie and Lots-o'-Huggin' Bear.
This will be the last year fans will see the name ABC Family, before it changes its name to Freeform in January 2016. Before you prepare for Freeform's 25 Days of Christmas 2016, stock up on hot chocolate and popcorn to watch this year's lineup.
