Hallmark Channel’s 16th annual Countdown to Christmas officially ended on December 21, 2025, with the premiere of “The Christmas Baby” — the last new movie to air on the network before the new year.
But if you’ve been a tad too busy to watch all of the network’s two dozen new movies and holiday series, which have been premiering since October, don’t worry. EntertainmentNow has pulled together a schedule of every 2025 movie and show slated to re-air on the cable channel between now and the end of the year.

The show originally aired in July, and it’s such a sweet look inside the lives of Hallmark superfans and the stars they adore. You can check out our update on how the featured fans are doing today, too!

It’s worth noting that all of Hallmark’s Christmas movies can also be streamed at any time via Hallmark+, which comes with a seven-day free trial.
I wish there was more films niall matter.
I don’t understand why “The Christmas Card” doesn’t get played. It’s one of the best Hallmark Christmas movies. Please put it back in the lineup. ASAP.
Hi Debbie,
I also LOVE “The Christmas Card” so much!! It’s my favorite Christmas movie!! :)) In reply to your comment, I noticed “The Christmas Card” aired on the UP TV channel and the Pixl channel (both on Dish Network and possibly other cable channels or satellite TV) this holiday season. It’s also available on the Up Faith & Family app and on the Up Faith and Family Roku platform and others. Those apps are available for a monthly or yearly subscription fee. I have Hallmark+ and those I mentioned, etc. and they are all very good. I’ve also noticed that channels and apps swap all our favorite movies very regularly onto other channels and apps, so if we look around, we’ll usually find our favs somewhere. We can also purchase our favs on DVD, through Amazon Prime or record them when they air to a DVR service or a streaming service to watch over and over. I have done one or more of these things so that I never lose my favs. Hope this helps!
Happy New Year! 🎉🎊

Please do not have three months of Christmas movies exclusively next year. It’s WAY too much…😫
