Thanks to the recently released schedule for Hallmark Channel’s Christmas Keepsake Week, we know that we’ll be getting another “First Look Holiday Preview Special” that will premiere next month and, according to Hallmark’s website, it seems that it will, once again, be hosted by Lacey Chabert!

Chabert will give us a sneak peek at a few of the original movies that are set to premiere later this year during Hallmark Channel’s Countdown to Christmas and Hallmark Movies & Mysteries’ Miracles of Christmas holiday events. “Home & Family” pet rescue expert Larissa Wohl is also expected to make a special guest appearance on the show.

Make sure you tune into the “First Look Holiday Preview Special” on Saturday, July 13th at 10pm/9c.

Watch a preview of the special below!

Stay merry!

I recently shared the full schedule for Hallmark Movies & Mysteries’ Gold Crown Christmas Week, and now I have the lineup for Hallmark Channel‘s annual Christmas Keepsake Week. If you’re unfamiliar with these programming slates, each year Hallmark celebrates Christmas in July by airing their beloved holiday movies for a couple of weeks spanning both networks to coincide with their in-store ornament preview.

During this mid-year celebration, Hallmark Channel will also air a “First Look” special to give you a sneak peek of the movies they’ll premiere later in the year during their iconic Countdown to Christmas and Miracles of Christmas programming. This year, not only will we get a special, but Hallmark has plans to premiere TWO new holiday movies!

Christmas Keepsake Week starts on Friday, July 12th and runs through Sunday, July 28th this year — so, it’s more like two weeks and some festive change.

Check out the full line-up below!*

Summer is kicking off, but I’m always in a Christmas state of mind — and, clearly, so is Hallmark!

It’s that time of year again when Hallmark begins to preview their upcoming ornaments in store locations while they celebrate on their television networks with month-long holiday programming for Christmas in July. First up? Hallmark Movies & Mysteries’ Gold Crown Christmas Week lineup, which actually begins on June 28th and continues into July before it switches over to Hallmark Channel.

What makes this year a little extra-special is that the network will be premiering a new movie, “Christmas Camp”, starring Lily Anne Harrison and Bobby Campo on July 11th at 9/8c!

Synopsis: An advertising exec (Harrison) must bring in a new account — a traditional toy company. To learn more about the holiday and its traditions, she attends a ‘Christmas Camp,’ where she crosses paths with the camp owner’s son (Campo), who teaches her about other stuff, too, like love.

We’re getting closer and closer to Christmas in July, and to celebrate that fact, I have some news about not one, but two movie premieres to expect on the Hallmark networks next month!

“Christmas Camp” starring Lily Anne Harrison and Bobby Campo will premiere on Hallmark Movies & Mysteries during Gold Crown Christmas on Sunday, July 7th Thursday, July 11th at 9pm/8c.

Synopsis: An advertising exec (Harrison) must bring in a new account — a traditional toy company. To learn more about the holiday and its traditions, she attends a ‘Christmas Camp,’ where she crosses paths with the camp owner’s son (Campo), who teaches her about other stuff, too, like love.

Here you will find a comprehensive list of all the holiday movies, specials and episodes that will be airing on US television during the Christmas season (and throughout the year!). Air dates are listed where possible, but if you see TBD (To Be Determined) then keep checking back to see when an air-date and time become available.

Please Note: This list will continue to be updated throughout the season, so please keep checking back!  Some networks (i.e. Hallmark, Lifetime & UPtv) will air their own original Christmas movies 24-hours a day with air-times that can change sporadically so, for those networks, I will include a link to their daily programming schedule to avoid making this post 3 miles long!

• If you’re a Canadian resident: W Network will air several of Hallmark’s new Christmas movies — click here for the daily schedule.  If you’re in the UK: Sony Movie Christmas Channel will air holiday movies 24/7, click here for more info.

FYI: Christmas original movies from streaming services like Netflix are available 365 days a year, so keep in mind the films that premiered last year are still streaming!

As Christmas music and a crackling fire set the mood, Kellie Pickler took on hosting duties once more as she hosted Hallmark Channel’s “2018 Countdown to Christmas Preview Special” over the weekend.

Both Kellie and Lacey Chabert gave us sneak peeks over the past few months as they hosted separate preview specials for the network, but with the slate of highly-anticipated holiday programming kicking off THIS FRIDAY, I think it’s safe to say this hour-long special was the final step in our journey on the Countdown to Christmas! I’m so excited–is it Friday yet?!

As with my previous recaps, I’ve included the scoop on the movies spotlighted during the special.

For the latest installment of Hallmark’s first-look shows, Candace Cameron Bure and Happy the Dog took the 2018 Miracles of Christmas Preview Special festivities over to the Hallmark Movies & Mysteries to celebrate all of the programming coming to the network this holiday season.

In the hour-long special, Candace gave us a sneak peek at several of the 14 original Christmas movies premiering, and it increased my excitement tenfold! Check out all of the films spotlighted below.

“Marrying Father Christmas”

When Miranda (Krakow) set off to find information on her biological father two Christmases ago, she never imagined that her investigation would lead her to both the family she had always longed for and Ian (Matter) – the love of her life.
