Hallmark Channel Presents a Much-Needed Marathon of Christmas Movies

The previously announced Hallmark Channel premieres of In the Key of Love, 2020 Spring Fling Preview Special and 2020 Hallmark Movies & Mysteries Preview Special will still be telecast at their originally scheduled times on Saturday, March 21.

Countdown to Christmas features movies starring fan favorites Candace Cameron Bure, Lacey Chabert, Holly Robinson Peete, Danica McKellar, Chad Michael Murray, Ryan Paevey and more.  A Christmas Detour starring Cameron Bure and Paul Greene (When Calls the Heart) kicks off the special event on Friday, March 20 at 12 p.m.  The marathon continues throughout the weekend with movies including Crown for Christmas, A Very Merry Mix-Up, Christmas at Dollywood, Write Before Christmas and concludes with Christmas in Rome on Sunday, March 22 at 6 p.m.
