Hallmark's holiday season seems to be getting an earlier and earlier start every year - and no, fans aren't complaining. Holiday Touchdown: A Bills Love Story was the first project announced in March, which will follow in the footsteps of 2024's Holiday Touchdown: A Chiefs Love Story by bringing another NFL team into the Hallmark Christmas spotlight. Four months later, Hallmark Media celebrated "Christmas in July" and announced multiple movies and TV shows that will be part of the 16th annual "Countdown to Christmas" lineup later this year. While the network didn't reveal when "Countdown to Christmas" will begin (October 2024 marked the start last season), Hallmark did reveal that A Newport Christmas and a third Three Wise Men movie would be part of the seasonal content. Scroll down for every 2025 "Countdown to Christmas" movie and TV show on Hallmark Channel so far - and check back for Hallmark Mystery's "Miracles of Christmas" lineup and the Hallmark+ Holiday collection.
