Christmas TV Schedule 2019 {12/3-12/8}
For as long as I can remember, I always made myself a list of when all the Christmas specials were going to be on TV every year so I could watch them. I decided I might as well share with all of you too so you can be sure not to miss your favorites! I’ve highlighted the big ones you don’t want to miss and broken the schedule down by day below. And just a note, I didn’t include Hallmark channel movies on these because those are on 24/7 and would seriously clutter the list! Enjoy!
