watchathon 2022

Will there be a watchathon this year or did Free Movies Week take its place?

Is there any information for when it will be?

Thanks.

That was the schedule in 2017. Do you have a link that shows the schedule for 2022?

Dunno. It's usually announced just a few days in advance on https://corporate.comcast.com/search?q=watchathon and, eventually, here in the Forums. Nothing listed so far for 2022 AFAICT.

Although we did have our Free movie week from March 8th-14th, we do this periodically, so keep your eyes peeled!

Sorry about the 2017 dates.

I found a page that seems to have the correct dates for Watchathon 2022.

https://julyweekends.blogspot.com/2021/09/comcast-free-weekend-2022.html

May 11-17.  You have to scroll about 1/3 down the page where it is repeated twice.

@gldrgidr​ that's the exact same dates from 2020, so I have a feeling that those aren't the correct dates.

That page is so full of gibberish and clickbait it really cannot be trusted. Also, May 11-17 were the dates for Watchathon 2020, see https://corporate.comcast.com/press/releases/xfinity-watchathon-week-may-11-17-free-tv-shows-and-movies

Thanks, but I'll wait for the official announcement from Comcast.

I got the same impression.  Dates without the year tacked on could be dates from any year.

@andyross​ Weird to start it mid-week, but we'll take whatever we can get!
