As is the annual tradition here every year, we go through the various network Christmas premieres and share with you the Christmas movies. Last week we looked at UPtv’s schedule, this week it’s another network. Our feature currently is the GAC Christmas 2022 Schedule. Normally we tend to sort these into two parts and only feature one month at a time (November and then December), however for some unknown reason, this year I’m going all in and posting the full lineup. The why of this escapes me, but here we are. As an extension of that note, I’m genuinely curious, which do you prefer?

I watch all of the Christmas movies on various channels (Hallmark, HMM, GAC, Lifetime) as I’m obsessed with Christmas movies. I’m so excited for this line-up!
YAY! Hope you enjoy them all, Amy. Any you’re particularly excited for?
The two movies that Tyler Hynes is starring in on Hallmark Channel. He is my favorite actor and celeb. crush!
I really like him in the TV movies too! So many with him are my favorites. I even really liked the one he stars in with Lauren Alania, and I’ll confess, I didn’t anticipate liking that one. :) I have a Hallmark Christmas movie look-see coming next week, too. :)
Was so excited to watch some Christmas movies on GAC last year!!! Even more movies to watch this year!! Sadly I have switched to YouTube TV – GAC isn’t one of the networks 😩😩😩😩 I am so sad I will miss all these movies this year😩😩😩
Oh, no! I’m so sorry Jean. That’s a bummer. What does YouTube TV have? I hope it has something with some festive movies. :)
Will Catering Christmas air again in November or December? So excited about the GAC Christmas movie schedule.
It absolutely should. :) You can check your schedule to see when it will re-air. Right now it’s scheduled to re-air late tonight. But beyond this, there will likely be more. Just keep an eye on the schedule or if your streaming service allows (if you have Philo or something similar), set the DVR to record it tonight. :)
Love Absolutely ALL of GAC’s Christmas movies. Welcome home CANDACE!!! Much Love –
Loyal fan of Hallmark and GAC
