Once again, MeTV is airing a marathon--daily at 9pm(ET)--of Christmas episodes from their line up of classic TV series. For the full Very Merry MeTV schedule, click HERE. Keep an eye on the daily MeTV schedule too because there are surprises in there. 2 things I'm most looking forward to watching are a couple of TV movies: one with McCloud (12/24) and A Dream for Christmas (12/25).
