I don't like some of this...

Full House-If it's going to be on two networks, fine, but 2 episodes a day would be enough. 4 a day is too many. Overkill.

Family Matters-demoted to 1pm ET, now why does Full House get overkilled but Family Matters has 10 episodes per week?

I like the December 12th-Full House/Family Matters/Step By Step Christmas episodes and the Sundays@2 Christmas episodes too with December 14th being Full House and December 21st being Family Matters.

I am also satisfied with the weekend lineup that starts December 28th, I like All three of those shows being together in a three-hour block and I also like a lot of the Christmas specials they have.

I'm sorry, but there's only so much Olsen Twins I can handle. That New Years eve thing makes me sick!

For real. They are already on 4 times a day on N@N and now will be on 4 times a day on ABC Family...

Why can't Canada get ABC family. I'm dying to watch Full House, Family Matters & Step By Step. I don't get either Nick@Nite or this channel. I only get Family Matters twice a week and Full House & Step By Step none.

Add Perfect Strangers, Mr. Belvedere, MR. Cooper, and Boy Meets World and Drop Full House.

Umm...you are mistaken, my friend. They will be on at least 5 times a day on ABC Family, and that doesn't include all their movies they show on occasion. They have one time slot where they play their new show or their old show from ABC that lasted all of one season, but has been rerun for at least 3 years.

Yeah, I was just making a statement about Full House, because the show is awful. I tried watching it when it came to N@N a few weeks ago, and just couldn't.

OVERKILL!

Canada isn't America... so they can't get ABC Family.

no actually i love it if you have such a problem with it then dont watch it, its that simple

When will the schedule for the 25 days of Christmas be available on your web site? I printed it out last year and hung it on the refrigerator with all the shows I HAD to watch highlighted. I can't wait!!!!!

There are some changes...

the 12:30 Full House showing has been replaced by Growing Pains, but a 3:30 showing has been added replacing Sweet Valley High. The December 12th Christmas episodes of Family Matters and Step By Step have been removed, as well as the December 21st episodes of Family Matters from 2-3pm ET(replaced by Full House) The weekend lineup of Family Matters and Step By Step beginning December 28th has been taken out replaced by 7th Heaven.

ABC Family January is in. No regular schedule changes, just a few specials:

Week of Jan. 12 and 19 ONLY:
9:30am-11:30am 700 Club Special

Notable stuff:
Sunday, January 4
2-4 p.m. The Facts of Life Reunion

whats going on with family matters now its going to b2 on at 1 and 1:30pm im in school during that time it would be nice if they moved it 2 11am

It's going to be on from 1 to 2pm through the end of January at least... February schedule should be out before the New Year(could be any day now really, since the January schedule came out on Nov. 22nd)

I'm the biggest fan of "7th Heaven". Please grant my holiday wish and re-air the episode "In Praise of Women". This episode is my favorite because Annie delievers the new additions, Sam and David, into the Camden Family. Annie is truly a role model for mothers-to-be and young girl wishing one day to become mothers. Motherhood is a special gift from God, and this is clearly one of greatest episodes which sends that exact message. The Camdens' are my favorite television family. It's the only realistic family show I've seen in years! Merry Christmas- to all, and thank you.
