Did you know that ABC Family officially became Freeform? The official word from Freeform is, "We wanted a name that felt more like us. We're changing our name to be a better fit for our shows and social platforms, which are more targeted to young adults than families." What's changed? Just the name - that's it. It's still the programming you know and love, just with a new and improved name. I know what you're thinking, "What about the 25 Days of Christmas?!" While the home of 25 days of holiday-themed programming has a new name, the network still has all of the jolly movies that Christmas fans love. So, get ready for the titles you've been waiting for because Freeform has announces its 25 Days Of Christmas 2016 Schedule!
Beginning on December 1st 2016, join Freeform for the 20th consecutive year of their "25 Days of Christmas" holiday programming event. Freeform's 25 Days of Christmas will run from December 1st-25th with 25 continuous days of holiday themed entertainment including festive movies and specials, classic holiday movies and returning favorites.
