Just like last year, ABC is airing A Charlie Brown Christmas twice this year. If you missed it when it aired late last month, you can catch it again on ABC on Sunday, December 17 at 7 pm. I recorded the special when it aired in November but haven't yet gotten around to watching it. When I do finally get time to sit and watch it, I'll do my usual ritual of dousing the lights, unplugging the phone and immersing myself in the special as I've done every year since I was a kid. I could purchase the DVD, but I have no interest in that. I like keeping this special tied to the holiday season, it's like a gift I get to unwrap and enjoy at the end of every year. I only wish ABC had also re-aired It's the Great Pumpkin, Charlie Brown, since my local station moved it to 3 am so they could air some insipid midterm election debate.

Yeah, but if ABC likes to cut stuff out of the specials (like Snoopy alternately dancing/crying to Schroeder's piano in The Great Pumpkin) when they broadcast them, so they can fit in more commercials.
Tacky beyond words.

Adam, that's one of those smart ass remarks, as see you next year, when you leave someone New Years Eve.
