Lifetime’s 2020 slate for their “It’s A Wonderful Lifetime” holiday programming will feature 30 new movies with two pics serving diverse narratives, talent and characters. Starting mid-October and continuing through December, the network will offer over 1,200 hours of programming to give you some holiday cheer.
