🎄 Christmas Comes Early To Great American Family 🎄 SEE HERE:




Great American Christmas has a very special gift for viewers; the network will begin its Christmas movies even earlier than originally expected!

According to the schedule currently listed on the Great American Family website, Christmas movies will begin on Friday, October 11th, with movies like: Destined at Christmas, A Christmas Miracle for Daisy, A Very Corgi Christmas, A Paris Christmas Waltz, Journey to Christmas, Bringing Christmas Home, and more!


The first two Christmas movie premieres on Great American Family are:

🎄 "A Vintage Christmas" - Saturday, October 19th

🎄 "Christmas Wreaths and Ribbons" - Sunday, October 20th




Also, I want to note two recent Christmas movie title changes...

🌟 "Wreaths and Ribbons" is now "Christmas Wreaths and Ribbons"

🌟 "A Shelter and Season’s Greetings" is now "Tails of Christmas"

I have updated my Christmas movie guide with these new title changes - *see here*.



May your day be Merry & Bright!

  1. I had a gut feeling this would happen. They never said what new movie they were airing next weekend, so I figured this was probably why. -Maria

  3. Will there actually be more? I feel like 16 is way too little.

    1. I would rather watch 16 quality movies than 40 that are not. Less is better.

    2. I also watch christmas movies on other channels. There are always more movies than I can watch. There are still several from the last few years that i've recorded and never watched. I guess it all depends on how much time you have on your hands.

    3. bebe, less movies do not necessarily mean quality, either

    3. Florence, Nope, Sister Dating Swap is ROE movie. It’s part of Autumn movies. They never picked up any networks or streaming services. It’s have movie trailer; Sister Dating Swap on YT

      When 2 Sisters named Helena & Rachel are fed up with their love and work life, they agree to swap homes for 2 weeks to take a break. Yet what starts out as a relaxing holiday grows into a whole new perspective on their careers, life and most importantly, romance

      When I notice there’s Fall theme: Little Greenwood Country Fair
      Potato sacks, apple bobbling, Fall leaves colors, etc ..

      Rachel dated a guy named Kyle Martindale & she dates a guy named Miles

      2 Sisters Helena & Rachel switches places to their boyfriends Ryan & Miles

      Rachel with Miles
      Helena with Ryan

      Open your heart
      They find love that moves you

      Rachel & Ryan
      Helena & Miles

    5. Florence, Sister Dating Swap (2023) wasn’t on Freevee or other Streaming services like Prime, etc..

      It’s not available yet on streaming services. It’s never aired any networks or streaming services

      I notice Sister Dating Swap (2023) was aired in Canada last September 13, 2023 according to IMDB but USA wasn’t…

    6. Apologies Anon.

      When I Googled it it said it was available to watch on Freevee but I didn't notice that this was only in 8 or 9 countries and US isn't one of them - Florence

  8. Last night during the GAF Christmas movie "A Christmas...Present", I saw the yearly, "It's beginning to look a lot like Christmas" Big Crosby GAF commercial that they show every year at the beginning of October with snippets from some of the new upcoming Christmas movies. Always love to see that!

    1. Jim, Oh, yessss!!!!!!!! I know just what you mean! That commercial always gives me goose bumps EVERY TIME I see it or just hear it from the other room.

      I know other networks like to use new songs or jingles, but I'm glad GAF sticks to Bing Crosby every year to begin their Christmas season. There's nothing like the nostalgia of classic Christmas songs, especially one like "It's Beginning to Look A Lot Like Christmas"!!! My heart lifts just thinking about it!!! :)

      Thank you, as always, for sharing the pure, blissful joy!!!

  11. As of this morning (Monday, October 7th), this schedule of Christmas movies is still showing up on GAF's website, beginning on Friday, October 11th, but I'm not seeing these Christmas movies in other TV guides that I usually check. I'm rather puzzled.

    Are they showing up for any of you - in your TV / online guides???

    2. Net, what I have noticed with GAF scheduling is that they took their good old time getting their guide updates sent to the other TV Guide places. I have found this frustrating on Frndly TV before where they just weren't updating the guides and couldn't record movies at times for GAF. One time I even contacted Frndly TV's customer service and told them the Frndly TV guide for GAF was not updated with what GAF is showing on their website. They basically said that they hadn't received any update for guide from GAF. Bottom line is I would trust what GAF has on their own website for scheduling (they are actually very weak in even updating their own website's guide...very limited showing ahead of time) because it always seems to take a long time for their guide updates to get updated elsewhere.

    3. It appears that the only GAF Christmas movie Verizon has on their schedule is Journey to Christmas on this coming Friday night. Every other movie is non-Christmas. And when I do a search for the two premiere movies the weekend of the 19th, they don't show up in the search as even existing. BUT, Verizon is notoriously very slow in getting their act together, so, hopefully, it will all be righted soon.
