WPIX Holiday Schedule 2019? - Sitcoms Online Message Boards

JMFabiano524 · 11-06-2019, 05:49 PM

People who are familiar with the NY station know that throughout the 2000s they've paid several nods to their '70s and '80s days, especially for the holidays. This includes annual airings of the Laurel and Hardy movie "March of the Wooden Soldiers," rerunning the Christmas special of their Magic Garden children's series, and the Yule Log, a film of a fireplace with Christmas songs playing in the background.

Now, as we know, WPIX after decades has switched owners, going from Tribune to Scripps Television. We are in November and I have heard very little about the station's holiday schedule. Do we know if there'll be any changes given the new owners?
