On Friday, December 11, there's a new holiday special, based on the girl named Virginia who wrote a letter to a newspaper asking if there really is a Santa Claus. We all know the paper's famous reply "Yes Virginia . . ." It airs at 8 pm EST on CBS. Neil Patrick Harris does one of the voices.

I believe that is a new remake of Miracle on 34th St. One that was new last year was the Muppets Christmas, Letters to Santa.

Here's a movie that goes way back - March of the Wooden Soldiers, with Laurel and Hardy. They used to show that every Thankgiving on TV.

March of the Wooden Soldiers never gets old. Too bad they never play it anymore.

They play March of the Wooden Solidiers every year on either Christmas or New Year.  The remake of Miracle on 34th Street blows.

I must agree with the last statement. I'll take the colorized version of the original any day.
