Kickoff to Christmas

Kick-Off To, formerly called Countdown to 25 Days Of Christmas is a programming block that was launched on Freeform (formerly ABC Family) in 2007.

History
In 2007, due to popular ratings from the previous year, ABC Family launched a companion block titled the Countdown to 25 Days of Christmas, which began on November 23, the day after Thanksgiving. Although this was the first official early start, in recent years, holiday programming has begun during the last week of November, showing mostly older original films, some of which pertained to Christmas and some that did not. In 2018, it will be renamed Kick-Off to Christmas and will be expanded to cover the full month of November.
