Don't shoot your eye out! It's Christmas and for countless families the countdown to the big day can't begin until the annual 24-hour A Christmas Story marathon.
The tradition has been going strong on TNT since 1997 and since 2004 on TBS, where it became known as 24 Hours of A Christmas Story. Twelve airings of the holiday classic air back-to-back beginning on Christmas Eve and end in the evening on Christmas Day.
