Classic-TV.com has compiled a handy schedule of other Christmas and holiday programming on both cable and broadcast TV that takes us right up to "New Year's Rockin' Eve," Dec. 31 on ABC.

Highlights include a 24-hour marathon of "A Christmas Story," starting Christmas Eve on TBS and "King of Kings," 2 p.m. (Pacific time) Christmas Day on TCM.

Keep in mind that the Classic-TV.com schedule is in Eastern Standard Time, which is three hours ahead of California. So check your local broadcast or cable schedule for correct times.

What is your favorite holiday movie or TV special? Why do you love it? Tell us in comments.

And as far as the blogs being on the news stream, I can't change that except to keep the blogs mostly at the bottom and the news on top.

It is easy to judge people from a distance. All of us have up and down times in life, none of us…Read More have the same internal or external supports to deal with it all. Maybe those among us who feel superior could try to take a moment or more to see life from the perspective of someone who (even from a position of pain or vulnerability) has too much pride to accept the stigma of being in need of the social translation of "the lowest of the low" homeless shelter or addiction counseling. It feels good to try lifting others up rather than tearing them down; Maybe your smile or expression of something other than disgust could make a positive difference to move a person in need toward help.
