Movieguide® previously reported on the network’s growth:
According to a press release from Great American Family, led by CEO Bill Abbott, the new network is the number one fastest-growing network in cable television.
“Great news for Great American Media’s #GreatAmericanFamily to end 2022 and an even better way to start 2023,” GAC Family wrote in a post on Facebook. “Happy New Year to everyone who helped make this happen – from the people on-camera and off, but especially our viewers!”
The official press release reads:
Great American Family closed out Fourth Quarter 2022 as the fastest-growing network in all of cable television. In only its second year, the emerging leader in original Christmas movies ranked #1 in Total Day ratings growth in Households (+113%), People 18-49 (+100%) and Total Viewers (+116%), and #1 in Primetime ratings growth in Households (+128%) among all cable networks.
Fourth Quarter 2022 viewership growth was driven by the network’s Great American Christmas franchise which featured 18 original Christmas movies and fan-favorite stars including Candace Cameron Bure, Danica McKellar, Gladys Knight, Jen Lilley and more. The expanded slate of 18 films marked a 50% increase in the network’s holiday movie offering in year two and further established Great American Family as a destination for original Christmas movies.
In addition to the fast-growing Great American Christmas franchise, the network features year-round seasonal programming events, including Autumn Harvest and Great American Winter, which feature original movies celebrating faith, family and country.
