Some of the major TV stunts we mentioned already were Freeform's 25 Days of Christmas 2021 edition, concluding on Christmas Day after 25 days. That is always a fan favorite pick of course! Some of the stuff that will air on Christmas Eve and Day on Freeform include The Santa Clause and Home Alone. However, our pick of the marathons is once again on Antenna TV! Starting today they have a "Christmas Collection" marathon beginning at 5am on Christmas Eve through 5am Christmas Day. Then they will have a "Christmas Through the Years" marathon on Christmas Day running from 10am-5am following The Yule Log.

Sundance TV has a Christmas Eve marathon of The Andy Griffith Show. Marathons The Facts of Life and Three's Company on Christmas Eve & Day are a few things you will see on Logo.
