Hello again, everyone!
"Oh the weather outside is frightful/ But TV is so delightful./ Let's watch another theme park show./Let it snow, let it snow, let it snow..."
Had enough of shopping? Heck, had enough of being out in the cold? Well, we've got some good shows about the parks coming up, including a new special from our old friend Samantha Brown; you're going to especially like the next couple of weeks if you're a fan of the Disney Cruise Line or you're trying to convince your loved ones to take a DCL cruise, because we have several airings of a couple of shows about the Mouse's cruise ships. Take some time out from the holiday madness, pull up a chair in front of the TV, and start dreaming of a Disney Christmas! Here's what's coming up. (As always, all times are PST and all shows are on the Travel Channel unless otherwise noted.)
