2024 Christmas Eve and Christmas Day TV Marathons
Welcome to a special Christmas marathon style edition of the News Blog! That means we will recap all of the holiday episode stunts and marathons on TV this holiday on both Christmas Eve and Christmas Day!
Some of the major TV stunts we mentioned already were Freeform's 25 Days of Christmas 2024 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 Christmas Eve they have a "Classic Christmas Collection" marathon beginning at 10am 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. Shows airing during these two events include Father Knows Best to Bewitched to The Facts of Life to Three's Company! Sister network Rewind TV will have similar marathons on Christmas Eve and Christmas Day with shows such as Who's the Boss?, Sabrina the Teenage Witch and The Drew Carey Show. The MeTV Network will also have holiday episodes of their series for their A Very Merry MeTV block but also The Ed Sullivan Show Christmas special on Christmas Eve from 1am-3am.
Streaming networks like Pluto TV has a nice holiday schedule, too, as we mentioned. Laff, Bounce and ION will air some holiday episodes as well. There is something for everyone, including holiday TV movies on Hallmark, Lifetime and GAC.
Stay tuned this time next week for our annual look at marathons on New Year's Eve and New Year's Day! Join us then but of course keep coming back every day until then for news!
