Watch and Cheer: Holiday Shows Are Here
No one celebrates Christmas like Hallmark (Channel 125)! Cozy up Saturday, December 6th, for the premiere of She’s Making a List at 8/7c. When Santa’s Naughty and Nice lists get out of hand, he calls in a consulting firm. Isabel, the firm’s top inspector, is assigned to mischievous 11-year-old Charlie—but things get complicated when she starts falling for Charlie’s widowed dad, Jason. Will she follow protocol… or her heart?

Ready for Christmas fun? Tune in to TBS for “All I Watch for Christmas”! Over a month of holiday movies, classic sitcom episodes, and nonstop festive cheer. Whether you’re hunting for a leg-shaped lamp, a grown man dressed as an elf, or a house decked out with 25,000+ twinkle lights, TBS (Channel 78) has it all! Gather the family, cozy up, and watch these Christmas classics. Make the kind of holiday memories everyone remembers.

And let’s not forget that lovable, Red-Nosed Reindeer who melted our hearts! No Christmas is complete without the timeless 1964 classic Rudolph the Red-Nosed Reindeer. Rudolph, teased for his shiny red nose, runs away but is brought back just in time. Santa sees his nose can guide the sleigh through a storm, and Rudolph saves Christmas, showing that being different is a special gift. Rudolph the Red Nosed Reindeer will air on NBC (Channel 11) on Friday, December 5th at 8 PM.

Gobble til You Wobble

Thanksgiving is not just about food but also a time to reflect and give thanks.
We discovered this adorable project from HGTV that captures the true spirit of the holiday — creating a Thankful Tree! Each family member writes what they’re grateful for on colorful leaves, which are then added to the tree. By the end, you’ll have a beautiful display of gratitude and love to share during your Thanksgiving celebration.
