Hallmark Channel is once again kicking the holiday season off with an early start with the release of its 2025 Countdown to Christmas schedule that will include familiar faces –including one star who previously teased what happened to a famous jacket that appeared in one of his movies.
Holiday season fans will soon get their fill of festive season programming devoted to mainly all things Christmas and romance, as the network known for its romantic movies once again gives fans an all-star lineup of content that will surely feed their need for holiday overload.
And while some may be looking forward to potentially another “so worth it” holiday cruise sponsored by the channel, others are planning to kick back with some cocoa and enjoy the festivities right from their living rooms.
