Halloween has passed, Thanksgiving is on the horizon, and that means only one thing – Christmas is almost here! The season of boots and scarves and hot drinks and sparkly sweaters is also the season of the cheesy Christmas movie, and it's no longer just the purview of Hallmark. Netflix, Prime Video, Roku, Oprah Winfrey Network and UPtv have all released their Christmas schedule, while even the Jonas Brothers are getting involved, appearing in a new Disney+ movie which will see them "face a series of escalating obstacles as they struggle to make it from London to New York in time to spend Christmas with their families".
One note to remember is that networks and streamers can, and do, make last-minute scheduling changes including adding or removing titles. We will continue to update to the best of our abilities – but always feel free to reach out to share new changes you've noticed.
