Feeling like you want a little of the holiday spirit early this year? We don’t blame you a bit. After all, this has been a crazy and stressful year, in case you hadn’t noticed.

Freeform apparently feels the same way since the TV network is declaring Nov. 1 the official start of the holiday season with its annual “Kickoff to Christmas” movie schedule. You don’t even have to wait until Thanksgiving to bake your favorite holiday cookie recipes, serve hot chocolate and gather around the screen to watch some holiday movies this year.

In addition to festive movies like “Home Alone” and “Love Actually,” there are plenty of non-holiday favorites that will simply make you feel warm and toasty, like “Shrek” and “Pitch Perfect.” The slate even includes several recently released movies that have never previously aired on Freeform, including 2018’s “A Wrinkle in Time” and “Christopher Robin.”

The full listing of Freeform’s “Kickoff to Christmas” programming schedule for November is below. So, set a reminder using your phone or digital assistant, or set your DVR for when your favorites are airing on Freeform!
