Looking for Christmas Specials? Which One's Your Favorite?


Warm up your DVR people . . . I found a comprehensive list of Christmas specials and holiday movies being shown on TV on the web site TV Tango. (I found it via Pop Candy.)

However for those of you expecting Christmas specials which were supposed to air in the 8 o'clock hour on ABC on Tuesday night -- ABC heavily promoted them -- you likely were unhappy campers. Due to the president's speech about his decision to send an additional 30,000 U.S. troops to Afghanistan, the premiere of the new ABC Christmas special Prep and Landing, was pushed back to Dec. 8 at 8:30. A Charlie Brown Christmas also got bumped from Tuesday night to Dec. 8, at 8.

Speaking of favorite Christmas flicks/specials . . . my GateHouse News Service column this month is all about what your favorite holiday flick/TV special says about you. My new favorite Christmas movie -- in addition to my eternal favorite It's a Wonderful Life -- is now, surprisingly, Elf.

What's your favorite Christmas movie/TV special?
