Joanna on TV: Set Your DVRs


Well, the holiday specials have already begun to air on TV like they do every year at this time. The Hallmark Channel started televising their holiday movies last weekend and ABC Family Channel begins their countdown to the 25 Days of Christmas programming this weekend. The Macy's Thanksgiving day Parade is next Thursday and the flood of old and new programming will be unleashed.

Add to that two upcoming new specials that will include your favorite Christmas TV expert (Don't shrug your shoulders! I'm talking about myself, Joanna Wilson). As you may already know, I was asked to participate in two TV specials adding commentary about Christmas TV episodes, specials and movies. Look for me:

on the History Channel special The Real Story of Christmas scheduled to air Nov. 30th at 8pm

and TV Guide Network's 25 Most Hilarious Holiday Moments scheduled to air Dec. 5th at 8pm


I expect these programs to be repeated before Dec. 25th but check your listings to be sure. Thanks to both production companies for asking me to participate: Workaholic Productions and Atlas Media Corp. respectively. I'm sure everyone is looking forward to seeing these new holiday TV specials as well as my contributions.

TV Guide Network interview


I'm back from New York City! On Tuesday, I was being 'interviewed' for an upcoming TV special entitled TV Guide Network's 25 Most Hilarious Holiday Moments. This on-camera interview will be edited down and my comments, along with other interviewees, will be the show's commentary between clips of your favorite, funny holiday TV moments.



As soon as I know when it will be televised, I'll let you know. My best guess: December. But as you may know, the TV Guide Network re-airs most of their programming again and again--so there will plenty of opportunity to catch my commentary.

Don't forget, in April I did a similar interview in Los Angeles for a history of Christmas TV special to air on the History Channel. As soon as I know the exact title of that program and when it will be air, I'll post it on this blog. But again, new Christmas programming tends to show up in late November and early December so this is a reasonable expectation.



I don't want to spoil any surprises about what will be on this TV Guide Network holiday special but I will let you know that the producers know what they are doing and picked from some great programs. There are both straight-up funny moments and ironically humorous holiday instances. There is holiday programming here that everyone will appreciate. I guess you'll just have to watch to know what makes the 25 most hilarious moments!
