Hallmark Channel may be the network that started the Christmas in July trend, but Great American Family has soon caught up with them, along with Lifetime and other channels. Meanwhile, the network has a full library of original Christmas movies since it started in competition with Hallmark.
It was when former Hallmark executive, Bill Abbott decided to start his own network that the Great American Christmas lineup started and it already has a number of films in stock. In order to celebrate this, Great American Family is bringing back some of their previous holiday movies for Christmas in July, along with new premieres to join the trend. Starting from June 30, viewers can binge Christmas right through to the end of July 2023.

As recently reported, Great American Family has started production on a kind of sequel to the Hallmark movie, Christmas Waltz.

Meanwhile, the movie features former Hallmark star Jen Lilley with Matthew Morrison (Glee).
The plot of the movie sees Emma (Lilley) relinquishing her job in Paris so a colleague with a family can keep his. While she plans her next steps in life, Emma meets a professional dancer, Leo (Morrison) who is losing his love for competitive dancing. However, a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity comes up for Emma to join Leo and sweep all of Paris off its feet.
While Christmas in July is coming shortly, Great American Christmas will start on October 21 with new holiday movies each Saturday and Sunday. Meanwhile, the event will also offer 24/7 Christmas movies through the end of 2023.
