The countdown to Christmas is starting in October on the Hallmark Channel. Crown Media Family Networks unveiled Wednesday the 2020 holiday schedule for Hallmark Channel and Hallmark Movies & Mysteries. The feel-good lineup features a whopping 40 Christmas movies, and by the looks of it, the network has delivered on its promise to make “diversity and inclusion” a “top priority.”
“Our holiday table is bigger and more welcoming than ever. This year’s movies reflect our most diverse representation of talent, narratives, and families, including ‘The Christmas House’, featuring a storyline about a gay couple looking to adopt their first child, and starring Jonathan Bennett in an ensemble cast,” Michelle Vicary, EVP, programming, said in a statement. “Our movies are rooted in warmth and positivity, meaningful connections, family gatherings, and seasonal traditions—a winning formula we hope will bring our millions of viewers much-needed levity and holiday cheer at the end of a tough year.”
There’s also a Hanukkah film in store, and a yet-to-be-announced surprise coming November 23.
With merry and bright days ahead, get into the yuletide spirit with Hallmark’s Christmas movie schedule for 2020, including The Hallmark Channel’s Countdown to Christmas and Hallmark Movies & Mysteries’ Miracles of Christmas schedule for 2020:
