It’s that time of year again, folks. It’s colder, likely because Jack Frost is nipping at your nose. Storefronts are lousy with sales, and the roads are crammed with eager shoppers. And then there’s family, breathing down your neck with plans. In the midst of all this hullabaloo, even the best of us forget the true meaning of the season. That meaning, of course, is nesting on your couch with some sugar cookies and eggnog cramming your head with classic Holiday movies and shows with the 25 Days of Christmas.

If you’re unfamiliar, every year, from December 1 all the way through Christmas, the Freeform channel rings in the most wonderful time of the year by broadcasting all those holiday movies that give you the warm and fuzzies, including The Santa Clause, The Muppet Christmas Carol, Home Alone, and every production that Rankin and Bass ever made. This year, there are even special Simpsons holiday episode marathons tossed into the mix. Woo hoo!

Here’s everything you need to know to watch 25 Days of Christmas online.

Freeform is available on a handful of the major live TV streaming services. When trying to decide which one is best for you, you’ll want to weigh the cost, the other channels you’ll receive, and the compatible devices for streaming.

1) Hulu with Live TV

Hulu with Live TV is one of the most popular ways to stream live TV, perhaps because you gain access to a massive library of on-demand content including classic and current TV shows, movies, not to mention Hulu’s original programming. As far as live-streaming goes, you’ll have almost 60 channels to flip through, including HGTV, a full suite of ESPN channels, Cartoon Network, FX, and even deep cuts like Nat Geo Wild and Syfy.

For a more à la carte service, look to Sling TV. It offers two cable packages, Sling Orange and Sling Blue, both of which cost $25 per month. If you grab them both (Sling Orange + Blue) you can save $10 per month. Sling Blue offers more bang for your buck with over 40 channels, including sports necessities like FS1, NBCSN, and NFL Network. You’ll also gain access to the usual cable mainstays like Food Network, Discovery, Cartoon Network, SYFY, and FXX. Here’s the complete guide to Sling TV channels. To gain access to Freeform, you’ll need to nab one of the Sling Orange packages.

3) YouTube TV

YouTube TV is a great solution for families because one subscription can add up to six accounts. Each account comes with unlimited cloud DVR. There are sports channels like NBCSN, NBA TV, and four ESPN channels. Disney, Disney XD, Disney Junior, and Cartoon Network will keep any kid (or kid at heart) busy for hours. It also comes with a few Spanish-language channels like Telemundo and NBC Universo. AMC, BBC America, and IFC are there too, so you won’t miss out on all that prestige TV. (You can find the full list of YouTube TV channels here.)
