I saw that A Very Brady Christmas is finally on DVD outside of the complete series and then I saw that both Sabrina, the Teenage Witch and Frasier have DVDs with only the Christmas episodes. I wish other shows would do this.

The things you find out here... 
Thanks! I dropped a copy in my Amazon cart (although... I can get the entire series from MC for ~$22 and that Halloween disc is ~$8 - I might have to reconsider... I hate when that kind of stuff happens... my OCD completist/bargain side kicks in).

I watched The Nightmare Before Christmas tonight with my nieces. Was going to wait until it counted, but they wanted to see it and how can I say no to one of my favorite movies? I love this film just as much now as I did when it came out originally...that doesn't always happen when films age, but this one is pretty universal, I think.

I've been watching Christmas movies since Halloween, but maybe its too early for some people. I'm just going by the activity in this thread and the Hallmark thread.

Last year, about 33-34 people participated in the list thread, but I doubt all of those people participated in the discussion. As a host of 2 of these challenges, the trend I've seen is there is usually a dedicated 5 or 6 people that comment frequently, a handful more that chime in randomly, and a lot more that just add to their lists...
Also, I bet there are several people that are participating in the comedy thread, so they are focusing on that until this one starts...

The overlap will hit pretty soon, though.

Many probably stick in the Comedy Challenge until December before starting with Holiday.

My daughter wanted to see a movie over the weekend. I gave her a few options and she was excited about Daddy's Home Two, so that's what we viewed. Didn't know until it started that it takes place over the holidays. There was a small part of me that couldn't quite enjoy it knowing I should have saved it for next weekend. These challenges mess with my mind.

I know I’m finding it harder and harder to wait. I still need to dig out my copy of the He Man She Ra Holiday Special , among other things.

As a precursor for the holiday season, a local radio station has began their Christmas giveaway contest this morning.

I listened to the radio station last night that usually plays christmas music, they are running a contest for when will be the exact date and time they switch over to Christmas music. The Prize is $1,000. I think they'll probably switch over at exactly midnight on Sunday November 19th, the beginning of the Thanksgiving Holiday Week.

I might be remembering wrong, but wasn't a link to a list of Christmas episodes of TV shows posted last year?

I have Fred Claus on the DVR, and I plan to watch at least one Hallmark Channel movie.
