Christmas Every Day is a 1996 American television movie, based on William Dean Howells's 1892 short story, "Christmas Every Day". It was directed by Larry Peerce, starred Erik von Detten, and originally broadcast on The Family Channel during their first 25 Days of Christmas programming block.

Plot
Set in the fictional town of Greenwood Falls, Virginia (just outside of Washington, D.C.), the film stars Erik von Detten as Billy Jackson, a selfish teenager forced to relive the same Christmas every day. At night on Christmas Day, Billy's sister (Yvonne Zima) wishes that it was Christmas every day. And thereafter he has to keep repeating Christmas Day until he realizes the true meaning of the holiday season.
The movie also stars Robert Hays and Bess Armstrong as Billy's parents.
Billy finds the entire experience to be really a nightmare. "My life is on rewind," he moans. Each December 25, he must face the school bully (Tyler Mason Buckalew), get involved in his grocer father's dispute with his fat-cat uncle (Robert Curtis Brown) who wants to build a mega-store and ruin the local merchants. Then there's Billy's Christmas pageant prank that goes horribly awry, and the destitute old lady who needs the bag of food he forgets to bring her.
