ABC Reveals Christmas and Holiday Special Schedule
Ready or not, the holiday season is upon us, and #ABC has unveiled its plans for holiday programming.
ABC is pulling out all the stops this year in the month leading up to #Christmas The Disney-owned network has a wealth of shows, specials and movies to draw on, and it is all under the banner of its 25 Days of Christmas event.
Strictly speaking, ABC's holiday programming goes well beyond the first 25 days of December. The event kicks off on the day after Thanksgiving, adding an extra week to the festivities. Even after Christmas, the network will keep things going for a few days, as many people will be home for until New Years.
The holiday season is a complicated time for many people, with mixed emotions and mounting responsibilities. Still, we can all rely on certain classic shows and movies to re-establish our priorities and remind us of why all of the last-minute shopping and exorbitant spending is worth it. For that, ABC makes a strong case, with some of the most beloved holiday programs — old and new — on offer.
ABC is wasting no time getting to Christmas, beginning on Black Friday Santa Clause is Comin' to Town. The classic 1970 animated special, narrated by Fred Astaire and starring Mickey Rooney as Kris Kringle, will air at 8 p.m. ET.
