For the most part, I view our cable TV package as excessive and unecessary. Most of the shows I watch are on those standard channels - ABC, NBC, etc. - although I admit I do periodically enjoy a movie from the movie channels, and HBO series, a Rachel Ray show, or something off the Discovery Channel.
Christmas programming, however, has changed my views. I love those holiday shows of my childhood like Frosty the Snowman and A Charlie Brown Christmas. Most of these shows and more show up on cable channels. I have been dilligently searching the listing guide for shows associated with "Christmas" or "holidays" and am recording a bunch of them. Last night I watched Rudolph's Shiny New Year. I didn't even know there was another Rudolph show besides the classic Rudolph the Red-Nosed Reindeer. Tonight I am planning to watch a movie based on a story by Truman Capote about an old lady, her young nephew (or maybe cousin?) and fruitcakes.
Unfortunately, I have not been able to find one of my favorites A Claymation Christmas Celebration . I will have to keep searching becuase that's a good one.
