There’s no need to worry about ABC turning grinchy and cancelling The Great Christmas Light Fight. The annual tradition has already been renewed for season 11, which is expected to air in December 2023. How long will this show continue? Is this the year that the show will become a hit in the ratings? Stay tuned.
A holiday competition series, The Great Christmas Light Fight follows two judges — lifestyle expert Carter Oosterhouse and interior designer Taniya Nayak — as they assess the creativity and decorating skills of everyday people who have an abundance of holiday cheer. Throughout the six episodes (filmed in 2021), the duo considers those homes with occupants who take yuletide adornment to a whole new level. In each merry and bright episode, the Christmas classic takes viewers across the country to the most elaborate and awe-inspiring holiday displays as viewers will once again see four families face off in each episode and compete to win $50,000 and the coveted Light Fight Trophy.

While these numbers don’t include further delayed or streaming viewing, they are a very good indicator of how a show is performing, especially when compared to others on the same channel. There can be other economic factors involved in a show’s fate, but typically the higher-rated series are renewed and the lower-rated ones are cancelled.
