Author: JackiePublished: Dec 01, 2006 at 12:54 pm 0 comments

As the weather turns wintry in most of the country, it's the perfect time to wrap yourself in a cozy throw, sip hot chocolate, and think of the holidays ahead. And, but of course... watch holiday, seasonal, and special programs on television! It's like comfort food for the soul.

This list isn't all-inclusive, but is a pretty good representation of what's on this weekend. For local holiday programming, please check your local listings. I may touch on some of the New York City area shows, but I have no idea what may be happening in Oshkosh!
