CHCH Retro Little Christmas 2021 - Sitcoms Online Message Boards

This year, Christmas Day falls on a Saturday which presented a problem for the CHCH programming staff since they don't normally have their retro shows on weekends. So on that day, you will see what they always have on Saturdays: old movies and infomercials. That means that the special Christmas episodes will be shown on Thursday and Friday between 10:00 am and 6:00 pm. At first glance, I would say the Thursday group is better. This is what it looks like:

THURSDAY DECEMBER 23

10:00 am Matlock - "Santa Claus"

11:00 The Andy Griffith Show - "The Christmas Story"

11:30 The Beverly Hillbillies - "Home For Christmas"

12:00 pm - The Beverly Hillbillies - "Christmas At The Clampetts"

12:30 Gilligan's Island - "Birds Gotta Fly, Fish Gotta Talk"

1:00 The Brady Bunch - "The Voice Of Christmas"

1:30 Green Acres - "An Old Fashioned Christmas"

2:00 Benson - "Mary and Her Lambs"

2:30 Designing Women - "I'll Be Home For Christmas"

3:00 Maude - "Christmas Party"

3:30 Get Smart - "Our Man In Toyland"

4:00 The Odd Couple - "Scrooge Gets An Oscar"

4:30 Family Ties - "A Keaton Christmas Carol"

5:00 Who's The Boss? - "The Christmas Card"

5:30 Happy Days - "Christmas Time"

FRIDAY DECEMBER 24 - CHRISTMAS EVE

It's kind of odd that they include this one in their holiday marathon. It's not really a Christmas episode - although there is a brief scene of Max sitting on Santa's lap in a department store, so supposedly it takes place at that time of year. It doesn't look very cold for December in Washington DC though!
