Thanksgiving is over and for me that means one key thing… Christmas is right around the corner. I love ABC Family’s countdown to Christmas even they run each December. They always show some of the best holiday classics and their own originals. They have been counting down to the countdown but since Thanksgiving is over I decided to join in now. Here’s some of the things they have coming up.
Tonight is the wold premiere of Home Alone: The Holiday Heist at 8/7c
Here’s the full schedule for Countdown to Christmas
