The Christmas List (1997)
Movie Summary
Perfume saleslady Melody Parris feels like her life is in neutral. Her stick-in-the mud boyfriend won’t commit, and she gets passed over for a promotion at the store where she works. She decides to make a Christmas list. After it’s deposited in Santa’s mailbox at the store, she starts getting everything she wanted, but it doesn’t always turn out as she expected.
The Christmas List was originally released on The Family Channel (now Freeform) December 1, 1997.

Thank you very much for your support (and for tolerating the ads) - I appreciate it!
Its almost christmas 2015 and again we beg to see The Christmas List, and again our pleas are ignored.
Yes, I agree!
And now it’s almost Christmas 2017 and they still won’t show it in TV or sell a DVD except for a transferred pirated copy. What is the matter with ABC/Disney that they won’t release this wonderful movie. I put my name out on Amazon to have them send a request but never got a response.
If you (“abc Family”) own the rights to “The Christmas List” movie, I really wish that you would let out a DVD of it. The offerings of it on Amazon and Ebay all seem to be pirated from the tv, and I don’t want to get involved in that. I’d much rather pay you for a good DVD that is legal. If you aren’t going to do anything with it yourself, perhaps you’d consider selling it to another company that would put it on tv or sell a dvd of it. Please consider this. Thanks! 🙂
DITTO!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I would love a copy of Christmas list also if abc family is not going to show it any more.
I agree with everyone…..I love The Christmas List with Mimi Rogers. I look forward to watching it every year and have been disappointed that it hasn’t been on the last couple of years. Why did you stop airing it? Why is it not available on DVD, when it’s obvious that many people would buy it? Here’s to hoping it will get much-deserved air time in the 2015 holiday season. Please don’t disappoint me this year.
Maybe it promotes prayer. I know they would like to think that GOD is dead – but HE is very much alive
that’s why some things work out in live and some things do not. It depends if we put GOD first, others second,
and self last.
The Christmas List was a family favorite!! My mother and I used to watch it with my Grandmother every year before she passed away! Now, mom and I try to still watch it together in memory of her. However, we can’t seem to find it on! PLEASE someone play The Christmas List!!!!
It’s for sale on EBAY!
I too LOVE The Christmas List and don’t understand why it isn’t aired. Someone told me it is supposed to be on at 5 or 6 a.m. on Dec. 23rd this year, but I haven’t been able to verify that. Hope it is true! Hoping for DVD at some point as well!
PLEASE show Christmas List this year! Even if it has to be at an off-time. It is a favorite!!
Same here! Please play this movie. It’s not too late for this 2014 season. There are so many who really miss seeing it. Please!
i agree with Everyone! And what really bits is that I had this movie saved to my FAVoRITES folder on YouTube. But now YouTube took it off…its marked as PRIVATE VIDEO on a gray screen. I came across an old video tape I made of this movie a loooong time ago but I’ll have to find our old Video player first! I’d be pleased if this movie came out on a DVD or better yet, restore it and put it out on blu-ray. I’d pay $20 for a blu-ray version!
I agree with MG. They repeat all kinds of holiday movies and they haven’t played “The Christmas List” once this year yet. Please play this movie it’s one of my mom and I favorite and she’s so disappointed that it hasn’t been played. She’s 70 years old and loves this movie so much. So could you give her a Very Merry Christmas for her and me.
I THINK IT’S HORRIBLE THAT MOST CHANNELS REPEAT THE SAME MOVIES, BUT WE CAN’T GET THE CHRISTMAS LIST W/MIMI ROGERS TO PLAY AT LEAST ONCE, COME ON FOLKS GET WITH IT
