Here's an interview that I found with CHCH programmer Nick Bannard about the CHCH Christmas retro schedule that gives more details at what we can expect on Christmas Eve and Christmas Day, and also hints at a few new developments for the New Year that he hopes viewers will love:

CHCH Retro Christmas - NOW Toronto - December 2019 (https://nowtoronto.com/movies/chch-retro-christmas/)

As the new year approaches, CHCH will continue to engage with the possibilities of retro programming, rescuing beloved television series from obscurity.

The channel is even asking its 1.3 million weekly viewers to let them know which other shows they’d like to see. Early in the retro schedule’s inception, they heard from these same viewers disappointed that their favourite show was replaced before its conclusion.


That means that we should look for a few surprise additions ahead as January approaches. I have no idea what they might be but I will keep an eye open and post the results as they arrive.

Yesterday, I was able to stream an episode of The Jeffersons. Tried it again today and was blocked. Will try again tomorrow to see if anything changes.

That’s odd.
