Can’t wait until ABC Family’s “25 Days of Christmas”? Well you’re in luck because the network is airing a “Countdown to 25 Days of Christmas” … and it starts on Wednesday, Nov. 20!

While the official Christmas fun on the network doesn’t kick off until Sunday, Dec. 1, excited fans can get a head start on the season with holiday-themed entertainment (suitable for the whole family) 11 days before “25 Days of Christmas” begins.

And that’s not all -- ABC Family viewers can also look forward to a brand new ABC Family original movie, “Christmas Bounty,” on Tuesday, Nov. 26. Starring WWE star Mike “The Miz” Mizanin and “Secret Life of The American Teenager” actress Francia Raisa, “Christmas Bounty” is about Tory Bell (Raisa), a former bounty hunter turned elementary school teacher. Moving from New Jersey to Manhattan, Tory must return to New Jersey to help the family business when an old enemy is released from jail “and vows retribution on Tory and her loved ones.” Chaos ensues when Tory’s upper-class fiancé, James, becomes involved … as well as her ex-boyfriend, Mike (Mizanin).
