5 Amazing TV Christmas Movies You Should Check Out

With Thanksgiving approaching us faster than ever, and radio stations getting in gear for non-stop Christmas music, I can't help but get excited for the upcoming holiday season a.k.a. my favorite time of year. Like many, ABC Family/Freeform's "25 Days of Christmas" marathon is always something I look forward to each and every year. For those of you crazy people who don't know what that is, the "25 Days of Christmas" marathon comprises of non-stop Christmas-related tv shows and movies leading up to the actual day of Christmas (accompanied in the mix are the Harry Potter movies...which is still something that perplexes me each and every year).

During the month of December, after "successfully" accomplishing each daunting day of school, I usually reward myself by sitting down and watching some Christmas-related movie whether it's on TV or on demand right before I go to sleep. Whether it's the classic clay animation movies like "A Year Without a Santa Claus" or more modern, cheesier ABC Family generated movies like "Christmas Cupid," I look forward to watching Christmas inspired movies each and every day.

I remember watching this movie back in 2007 when it first aired. Even though the plot is a tad cheesy and somewhat unrealistic, it is undeniably one of my favorite holiday movies to watch every year.

2. The Polar Express

This is probably a fan favorite for many people. There's something so cute and mysterious about this movie that really draws me to it. I love the whole concept to it and I think it's without a doubt a holiday staple from the past decade.

3. Santa Baby

This is another ABC Family original movie, however, unlike many other original movies, this one got a sequel which is equally as entertaining. I think the concept of Santa having a daughter is something that you don't really find in many holiday movies. This one is wittingly clever and hands down one of my favorites.

4. Elf

Definitely one of the more overrated Christmas movies, but I can't help loving it. Although, through the years, the movie has somewhat lost it's charm, it's still one that I must watch every year or the holiday season will be incomplete.

5. Snowglobe

This is another ABC Family original movie and the concept is very imaginative. It focuses on a girl who receives a magical snow globe in the mail and each night she wakes up inside the snow globe in a town that is fixated on celebrating Christmas every single day. It's definitely one of my favorite Christmas movies out there.

Honorable mentions: Christmas With The Kranks and The Santa Clause movies.

So, if you're like me, and you find pure joy out of watching different Christmas movies every day leading up to the holiday, then hopefully you'll check out the 5 movies I've featured above. You will not regret watching any single one of them!

I've been super busy lately with school work, studying, etc. Besides the fact that I do nothing but AP chemistry and AP economics, I constantly think of stupid questions that are almost impossible to answer. So, maybe you could answer them for me, and if not then we can both wonder what the answers to these 15 questions could be.

To My Loving Boyfriend,

  • Thank you for all that you do for me
  • Thank you for working through disagreements with me
  • Thank you for always supporting me
  • I appreciate you more than words can express
  • You have helped me grow and become a better person
  • I can't wait to see where life takes us next
  • I promise to cherish every moment with you
  • Thank you for being my best friend and confidante
  • I love you and everything you do

To start off, here's something I don't say nearly enough: thank you. Thank you, thank you, thank you from the bottom of my heart. You do so much for me that I can't even put into words how much I appreciate everything you do - and have done - for me over the course of our relationship so far. While every couple has their fair share of tiffs and disagreements, thank you for getting through all of them with me and making us a better couple at the other end. With any argument, we don't just throw in the towel and say we're done, but we work towards a solution that puts us in a greater place each day. Thank you for always working with me and never giving up on us.

Ah, yes, good old Hauppauge. We are that town in the dead center of Long Island that barely anyone knows how to pronounce unless they're from the town itself or live in a nearby area. Hauppauge is home to people of all kinds. We always have new families joining the community but honestly, the majority of the town is filled with people who never leave (high school alumni) and elders who have raised their kids here. Around the town, there are some just some landmarks and places that only the people of Hauppauge will ever understand the importance or even the annoyance of.
