Lifetime Network produced a series of six DVD box sets with 12 Christmas TV movies on each set (total 72); but useful retail links on Amazon are real scarce.
It seems that the DVD box sets were widely distributed in Canada, and also as a Wal-Mart exclusive. There are many used & new box sets
available on eBay and other such sales sites.
