I hardly watch television but during the holiday I do enjoy watching the Christmas programs. I usually watch all the old favorites...like White Christmas....It's a Wonderful Life.....but last night I stayed up until midnight watching two programs on the Hallmark channel...One was A year of Memories and the other I didn't catch the title....but both were outstanding programs. On Friday night there is another called the Christmas Choir that someone recommended to me and I am going to make a point of watching. Do you enjoy watching the Christmas movies or programs? Do you watch the Hallmark Channel on television?

I do watch the hallmark channel during the holidays. I enjoy watching holiday movies. They seem so nice and it helps you to get into the spirit. I have seen quite a few good movies on hallmark this year.

I really wanted to see The Christmas Choir. I read an article about it, and how it was based on a true story. I don't have the Hallmark channel, but my parents do. However, they don't have a way to tape a program, and even if I had been at their house when it aired I would not have been able to watch it. That night there was the big OU football game. And I wouldn't dare try to change the channel. My dad might have had a stroke!

I do have hallmark channel. Occasionally I watch a movie or two. I like to watch scrooge story on television during Christmas time. However my eigt year old son has monopolised the Disney channel so I will only watch hallmark in the remaining time left for me. © ronaldinu 2008

Yes we do watch the Hallmark channel. They have some incredible movies and not just for kids. The Christmas movies are the movies that put the Christmas spirit in my heart. I will try and catch that movie on Friday. Thanks for the heads up. leenie

Jillhill, I would love to watch all those Christmas programs but things get so crazy that I can't fit in much television time. But if I could, I would tune the channel to Hallmark and Lifetime and watch day and night! I really would. I did watch, "A Christmas Story". It's so silly, but I just have to see it every year, I don't know why. It just tickles me. That's cool that you enjoyed so many Christmas programs. It sounds sort of relaxing and also fun.
