Once again, I'm stepping away from my usual listings of programs for the weekend. Here are just some of the "stand out' shows on TV tonight. It's truly a "tis the season" evening. all the major networks are working us into that holiday spirit. (I will pretend to be full of joy for you all....fa-la-la-la-f*ckin'-la)

ABC has "I Want A Dog For Christmas, Charlie Brown" (check out the recaps in Auditiongasm of this one) at 8pm, followed by Mike Myer's "Dr. Suess' The Cat in the Hat" at 9pm.

CBS is airing Will Ferrell's "Elf" with Bob Newhart, at 8pm. A new episode of "48hrs Mystery" follows at 10pm.

I'm a HUGE wrestling fan so NBC's airing of the "WWE Tribute to the Troops" at 9pm is definitely on my list. Vince McMahon has always supported our armed forces & has put together shows for them, even during peaceful times. He, his wrestlers & Divas are in Iraq for Christmas.

HBO is showing "The Bucket List" tonight at 8pm. (2007) This is a great movie with Morgan Freeman & Jack Nicholson as two terminally-ill old guys who decide to live it up and do all the things they've always wanted to do. If you haven't seen it, now's the time.

TNT has a marathon of "The Wizard of Oz" (1939) with Judy Garland at 8pm & again at 10pm. You can't miss with the Classics.

Victoria Stillwell is on Animal Planet tonight with a new episode of "It's Me or the Dog" at 9pm.
There's also a new episode of the "Graham Norton Show" at 10pm on the BBCA.

"Gorgeous & Green: A Martha Stewart Wedding" is airing at 9pm on Style. Martha is planning a wedding for her assistant in Nashville. It will be totally "green".
