Hallmark's Countdown to Christmas: Ways to watch Hallmark's 'She's Making a List' and other new holiday movies

The holiday season is officially here, and Hallmark is bringing back its annual Countdown to Christmas series! For 2025, the network is offering 24 brand-new Christmas films along with four holiday series, running through December 21, 2025.

With Hallmark movies no longer on Peacock, watching the festive lineup might be trickier for those without cable. Here's a complete guide to catching all the new Hallmark Christmas content this year.

Release Dates for Hallmark Christmas Movies

The 2025 Countdown to Christmas series began on October 17. The next premiere, She's Making a List featuring Lacey Chabert and Andrew Walker, airs on Saturday, December 6, at 8 p.m. ET. Throughout the series, most new films will debut on Saturdays and Sundays, while new series episodes will be broadcast on Fridays and Mondays.

Where to Watch Hallmark Christmas Movies

All Hallmark holiday content is available on the Hallmark Channel and streaming service Hallmark+. Peacock will no longer carry Hallmark movies in 2025.
