MAIN Home Life Holidays Christmas What's On

There's nothing like families gathered around the warm glow of a TV to watch this year's much beloved Christmas movies and TV specials.

In 2025, you can look forward to a select group of U.S. stations specializing in everybody's favorite Christmas gems - such as CBS for animated specials, TMC for movies, and Freeform for the big mix of movies, specials and animated tales.

It's a Wonderful Life on NBC Christmas Eve? The 24-hour A Christmas Story marathon on TBS? We'll have it covered.

It's nice to know that some things never change, especially around the holidays. But what else is happening around TV land this Christmas?

2025 Christmas TV - What's On?

NBC will herald the arrival of the holidays at the 89th lighting of the world's most famous Christmas tree. Stay tuned for the "Christmas in Rockefeller Center" telecast on Wednesday, December 3, 2025 with live performances by top musical talent from 8-9PM ET.

And speaking of beloved holiday traditions, watch for the movie classic "It's a Wonderful Life" to air on NBC on Christmas Eve on Wednesday, December 24 at 8PM ET.

For more holiday fun there's the highly anticipated "25 Days of Christmas" on Freeform, beginning December 1.

In the further race for holiday ratings, the Hallmark Channel once again promises hours of programming devoted to Christmas movies and specials in 2024.

And ... it's all topped-off with TBS the annual 24-hour "A Christmas Story" marathon on TBS beginning on Christmas Eve at 8PM ET with continuous showings through Christmas day.

Apple TV+ still owns the rights to "A Charlie Brown Christmas," so you won't find it on network TV this year. However, Apple TV+ will allow nonsubscribers to watch "A Charlie Brown Christmas" for free Dec. 13 and Dec. 14.

Meanwhile, check back for the latest updates as we fill in the blanks for a full schedule of U.S. television programming and streaming movies tagged especially for the holidays.

Merry Christmas!
