Best Classic Movies on TV This Week: December 29-January 4

The end of the year can be so relentlessly busy, it’s important to take some time to kick back and relax … and watch tons of classic films. This week, schedules have finally moved on from showing those same classic Christmas movies over and over again, which means there’s tons of variety: from honoring the legacy of Rob Reiner with his films including A Few Good Men, to favorite Westerns like The Magnificent Seven, to classics like Citizen Kane and Sophie’s Choice.

And if you choose to skip the crowds and stay in on New Year’s Eve, you can countdown to 2026 with a marathon of Fred & Ginger dance films, The Breakfast Club, Titanic, Rob Reiner’s When Harry Met Sally… (which features one of cinema’s most beloved New Year’s Eve scenes) or Twilight Zone marathons that will run into the New Year.
