How to Watch All the New Holiday TV Movies This Year: Full Schedule (1)

It’s officially the holiday season. Beginning Oct. 12, Great American Family kicked off their Great American Christmas 2024 event, while Hallmark Channel will start to roll out their new movies, as part of the 15th annual Countdown to Christmas event, on Oct. 18.

This year, across the channel, Hallmark Mystery and Hallmark+, the company is rolling out seven more than last year with 47; Great American Family has four less than last year with 16, while Lifetime has the same as last year’s 12. BET+ has eight this year, while Netflix has five, UPtv has four and OWN and Hulu each have announced three. BYUtv has one.

More movies will likely be announced —since it’s not yet Halloween at the time of publishing this —but bookmark this page. We’ll continue to update as more are announced. Below is your official guide to all the new, original holiday movies coming this season:
