Superstars and Divas give back on NBC’s ‘WWE Tribute to the Troops’ Pro wrestler Mike “The Miz” Mizanin goes out of his way to provide memorable moments for troops heading into combat on “WWE Tribute to the Troops,” but sometimes they do the same for him. One happened several years ago when he was doing meet-and-greets and autograph signings while over in Iraq and Afghanistan. “One of the sergeants came up to me,” recalls Mizanin, a 34-year-old Cleveland-area native, “and said, ‘Hey, this is a picture of you and my kid.’ And it was a baby. And he goes, ‘You met my kid before I did.’ And I was like, ‘What?’ Like that just blew me away and it’s something I’ll take with me for the rest of my life, that he had a picture of me and his baby and I met his baby before he did.”

The hourlong special, which airs Saturday, Dec. 27, on NBC, chronicles a recent visit by WWE Superstars (of which Mizanin is one) and Divas in which they spent two days at Fort Benning, Ga., meeting and greeting active Army personnel and their families. It also highlights WWE’s annual goodwill tour overseas, where the wrestlers perform, and includes messages from NBCUniversal performers and personalities including Seth Meyers, Andy Cohen, Katherine Heigl, Lester Holt, Padma Lakshmi, Tom Brokaw, Carson Daly and Gwen Stefani. Florida Georgia Line will also perform. Saying “we’re taking right up where Bob Hope left off,” Mizanin calls his experience

The holiday season is a favorite of many, and for those of us who like sports bAi and like to watch a lot of it on TV bAi it is equally appealing. Those in the television industry know that while the holiday season can be hectic for many, it is also a period of down time and that means eyeballs are glued to TV screens. When a sports fan thinks of the holidays they usually think of the college bowl season, which officially began on Dec. 20. Some folks say there are too many bowl games. If they’d rather watch syndicated reruns, like they can the rest of the year, that’s their business. But football is the most popular sport on the continent and fans can’t get enough of it. It should also be noted that for many of these college athletes these bowl games, no matter how insignificant in the championship picture, will be the very last time many will play organized football. The bowl action continues Monday, Dec. 22, with the Miami Beach Bowl and on into Christmas Eve with the Bahamas and Hawaii bowls, which means there will be something on the widescreen to go along with the Christmas specials. Weekend bowl games on Friday and Saturday, Dec. 26 and 27, should get a little more interesting as they’ll feature major conference teams squaring off against each other. The post-Christmas weekend will be full of football.

LeBron James
It’s going to be an interesting week for the NBA also, one that features top players going up against their former teams. Of course, we’re talking about the Cleveland Cavaliers, who on Tuesday, Dec. 23, will host Kevin Love’s exmates, the Minnesota Timberwolves. On Christmas Day, it’s LeBron James’ turn to go down memory lane in Miami when he faces old buddy Dwyane Wade and the Heat. This is just one of five NBA games on Dec. 25, the others being the Washington Wizards at New York Knicks, Oklahoma City Thunder at San Antonio Spurs, Los Angeles Lakers at Chicago Bulls and the Golden State Warriors at Los Angeles Clippers. The Wizards/Knicks game is the first in the lineup at noon (ET) with Warriors/Clippers closing the day’s slate late in prime time.

Booth (David Boreanaz) is behind bars in “The Conspiracy in the Corpse.” His colleagues try to clear him by probing the matter that put him in prison, a man’s death 16 years earlier. Booth has to face vengeful convicts he helped put away — and he might not have it much easier once he’s out, thanks to an FBI man (guest star John Boyd, “Argo”) who’s eager to prove himself. The story includes what originally came as a shocking twist to the show’s fans. h Å (DVS)
Benjamin Franklin (guest star Timothy Busfield) is drawn into Ichabod and Abbie’s (Tom Mison, Nicole Beharie) plan to save Katrina (Katia Winter) from the Headless Horseman in “The Kindred.” The scheme involves a being not unlike the Dr. Frankenstein-created synthetic man, this one created by Franklin. Jenny (Lyndie Greenwood) and the new local sheriff get off on the wrong foot with each other. Orlando Jones and John Noble also star. h Å (DVS)

‘THE CHEW’S’ Carla Hall on avoiding holiday disasters Nothing can inspire fear in the newbie holiday chef quite like cooking a turkey. In addition to being a large, physically imposing dish, it’s such a high-profile meal that if you over or undercook it, the day could be ruined – which, of course, your family will never let you live down. It’s why Carla Hall of ABC’s weekday culinary series “The Chew,” created a video that was packaged with holiday dinners sold by the Fairway Market chain that walks cooks through the process. “It was step by step,” Hall says. “I said, ‘This is what you do on Wednesday.’ And so I had them do a dry brine, put the veggies in the cavity, put the butter under the skin. I’m like, ‘OK, that’s 15 minutes of work. That’s what you do on Wednesday.’ And then the next part, ‘OK, it’s Thursday. You’re going to pull your turkey out. You need five hours from this point until you want your turkey. “ ‘Pull it out but leave it out for at least 45 minutes on the counter. Turn the oven on, put that baby in there.’ And I just stepped them through it. And I think having a video of someone telling you exactly what to do, it was as if I was there ... . And they all said that it turned out. But it was scary – a lot of pressure.” As for common holiday meal mistakes, Hall says, “The biggest mistake (people) make is they don’t plan according to the space in the oven,” she says. “So I would say that you plan a meal based on what can be done on top of the stove. And literally get the pots out and put them on the stove. And then aside from the meat, which can sit out and rest, put everything else in the oven and see what space you have and have some room-temperature things. If you have to do a crockpot ... do that. Timing is what people get messed up, in terms of everything coming out on time and hot – or cold.”
“It was my favorite pilot script, and I told my husband, ’I’m supposed to play this role. I just know it.’ I had this audition process and had to fight for it, and I’m just so glad they said, ’Yes.’ I’m really enjoying myself, holding guns and running and chasing and tackling ... it’s just great.” – Alana De La Garza of “Forever” on ABC

What book are you currently reading? “I just finished ‘Pilgrim.’ And I just got another ... ‘Unstuff Your Life: Kick the Habit of Clutter.’ (Laughs) It’s really great going into the new year.” What did you have for dinner last night? “I actually went to the Plaza Food Hall (in Manhattan) ... and I had Peking duck buns, prosciutto and fig pizza, some octopus and some salad.” What is your next project? “I am working on opening a restaurant here in Manhattan, and it’s Carla Hall’s Southern Kitchen, Nashville’s Hot Chicken and Southern Sides. So fingers crossed that it’s late spring/early summer.” When was the last vacation you took, where and why? “Canyon Ranch (in Tucson, Ariz.). It was the summer, and that trip was about every day doing something I’d never done before. So I did the climbing wall, I did the high ropes challenge, I did a level four hike, I did Zumba. (laughs) ... It was scary but it was something that was so awesome about being scared and then doing it anyway.”

Julie Andrews
THE SOUND OF MUSIC 7 p.m. on 22, 6 Julie Andrews’ sweet voice fills the hills in this 1965 Academy Awardwinning musical based on the true story of Austria’s Von Trapp family. Andrews plays the conventtrained governess of a wealthy Austrian’s (Christopher Plummer) children. The score features such songs as “Edelweiss” and “My Favorite Things.” h
MULANEY 7 p.m. on 28 The Christmas season is in full swing, but John (John Mulaney) finds his yuletide good cheer is severely dampened by his (mostly) irrational loathing of actor Macaulay Culkin in the new episode “It’s a Wonderful Home Alone.” Meanwhile, Lou (Martin Short) starts sweating bullets when his network rival, Jesse Tyler Munoz (guest star Nick Kroll), announces plans for a holiday special that will compete with Lou’s. Nasim Pedrad, Seaton Smith, Zack Pearlman and Elliott Gould also star. (N) h Å (DVS)
THE LIBRARIANS 8 p.m. on TNT Wow, just when you think those dastardly goons at the Serpent Brotherhood have finally hit rock bottom in the “evil” department, they hatch a plan to kill Santa Claus in the new episode “And Santa’s Magic Run.” Needless to say, librarians Jake, Ezekiel and Cassandra (Christian Kane, John Kim, Lindy Booth) aren’t about to let that happen as they set out to help St. Nick accomplish the secret purpose of Christmas.

AL ROKER
BY JAY BOBBIN
OF ‘TODAY’ ON NBC AND ‘WAKE UP WITH AL’ ON THE WEATHER CHANNEL Doing your dual duty on ‘Today’ and ‘Wake Up With Al,’ which involves very early hours and sometimes tricky logistics, how have weekday mornings been going for you?
You know, a lot of people have the same dance and the same early hours. My dad was a bus driver and worked these hours, so it’s all good, to be able to broadcast into people’s homes and drill down and really be able to give them a detailed forecast on The Weather Channel. And then on ‘Today,’ you’re sitting next Neil Diamond and Lionel Richie and talking to Alicia Keys. You just go down the list, and it’s pretty amazing. How was it for you to return recently to your alma mater, the State University of New York at Oswego, to participate in a “media summit” with Charlie Rose among others?
It was a hoot. Let’s face it, you’re coming back a little different than when you left. We all have – well, maybe we all don’t, but I do – this dream of coming back as kind of a big deal and a success, and you get to come back and you’re a success. And people appreciate it. And that’s a good thing. Are you happy about the bounty of activity that your wife, ABC reporter Deborah Roberts, has had lately?
BY JAY BOBBIN
Yeah, she’s very busy, doing stuff not only for “20/20” now but also for “Nightline” and “Good Morning America” and “World News Tonight.” She’s very good at what she does, and thankfully, they recognize that at ABC News.
Kristin Chenoweth may not be ‘Glee’-ful again Q: I enjoyed Kristin Chenoweth’s recent PBS concert special. Will she be back on “Glee” before the show ends? – Sue Mason, Buffalo, N.Y. A: The Emmy and Tony Award-winning dynamo has said she’s not sure exactly what executive producer Ryan Murphy and his team on the Fox show have in mind – if anything – for her recurring character, April Rhodes, but they’d better hurry if they want Chenoweth back. At a certain point, her schedule won’t allow for it. Her Broadway return in “On the Twentieth Century” – teaming her with Peter Gallagher (“Covert Affairs,” “Law & Order: Special Victims Unit”) starts previews in February before its official opening in March. Chenoweth also will be on the big screen in January, appearing with Jennifer Lopez in the thriller “The Boy Next Door.” Q: Is there going to be another installment of the “Flowers in the Attic” series on Lifetime? There are four or five books. – Maggie DePue, Columbus, Ohio A: The third novel, “If There Be Thorns,” will be televised by the cable network in 2015. Jason Lewis (“Sex and the City”) and Rachael Carpani (“MacLeod’s Daughters”) will assume the central roles of Christopher and Cathy ... and Book No. 4 in the V.C. Andrews series, “Seeds of Yesterday,” also is being readied by Lifetime for next year, with Lewis and Carpani reprising their roles. There was no word at this writing if the fifth and final book in the so-called Dollanganger Series, “Garden of Shadows” also will be filmed – but with its four predecessors being made, you can pretty much assume that’s a done deal.

Checking in with ‘GEORGE BAILEY’ James Stewart
12
BY JAY BOBBIN
He’s one of the most thought-about people during the holiday season, though he isn’t real. But what if George Bailey was? As played by James Stewart, the central character in the Frank Capradirected 1946 movie classic “It’s a Wonderful Life” – again getting its traditional Christmas Eve showing Wednesday, Dec. 24, on NBC – popularized a notion that’s been used since in countless television-series episodes: “How would life and the people I know be different without me?” Imagine for a moment that George actually did exist, that he still was around, and that he was asked for an update on his life. “It really has been a wonderful life,” Bailey says. “If I hadn’t gone through what I did back then, particularly with the people I love seeming not to know who I was, I don’t know that I would have appreciated them – or the world – as much as I have.” Bailey isn’t surprised that his story has had so much resonance with people for the better part of 70 years: “I think that, at one time or another, just about everybody wonders what they’d do with a second chance at life if they got it. Avoid the mistakes you made the first time, be more considerate of others, and just make the most of every opportunity you’re given.”
Beyond Basic TV
Does Bailey think often about Clarence, the then-novice angel who showed him the way back from the brink of desperation? “Oh, sure. How could I not? Without Clarence doing what he did, I would have missed out on so much – and I probably wouldn’t be here today. And you can only imagine how I feel every time I hear a bell ring.” Born: 1907 Birthplace and current residence: Bedford Falls, N.Y. Family info: Wife Mary; children are Pete, Janie, Zuzu and Tommy Favorite saying: “Remember, no man is a failure who has friends.” What he thinks of James Stewart of an actor: “Well, if they ever make a movie about me, he’s the guy I’d want playing me. Just very down-toearth and well-meaning. You could always see the goodness in him, and even if things didn’t go right for the people he played, you just knew in your heart that it wasn’t really their fault. Now that I think about it, it kind of reminds me of ... me.” Favorite television series: “Well, of course, there wasn’t any television in my younger days, but I’d have to go with the first show I remember liking ... ‘I Love Lucy.’ Still as good today.”

A vigilante has a unique way of dispatching law-breaking residents of Gotham in “The Balloonman.” The killer simply hooks them to weather balloons and watches them float away, giving Gordon and Bullock (Ben McKenzie, Donal Logue) quite a challenge in trying to stop the murders. Newly returned to Gotham, Penguin-to-be Oswald Cobblepot (Robin Lord Taylor) aligns himself with an underworld titan. David Zayas (“Dexter”) guest stars. h Å (DVS)

Keene) starts training as a back-up police officer in the new episode “Chain Reaction.” (N) Å

SHREK THE HALLS 8 p.m. on 22, 6
What’s not to love about a Christmas special starring a family of green ogres? Shrek (voice of Mike Myers) isn’t a Christmas kind of guy, but Fiona (voice of Cameron Diaz) loves the holiday, so he goes along — with a little help from Donkey (voice of Eddie Murphy) and the rest of the fairy-tale gang. If this special doesn’t join Rudolph, Frosty and the Grinch in the pantheon of holiday classics, something’s wrong with the world. h Å
THE FLASH 8 p.m. on CW
Another DC Comics character enters the scene in an episode titled for her, “Plastique.” Played by guest star Kelly Frye, she’s a soldier physically enhanced by a bomb blast that Joe (Jesse L. Martin) suspects the military had a role in setting off. A general (guest star Clancy Brown) turns out to be involved, wanting to create super-soldiers. Barry (Grant Gustin) tries to get Iris (Candice Patton) to stop writing about the socalled “streak.” h Å

A CHRISTMAS STORY
8 p.m., 10 p.m. on TBS
“You’ll shoot your eye out!” Peter Billingsley stars in this 1983 comedy as the little boy who yearns to find a Red Ryder BB gun under the Christmas tree. Not just a Christmas story, it’s about parents, little brothers, bullies, decoder rings, double dog dares and most of all, the workings of a youthful mind. Jean Shepherd’s writing captures it all perfectly. Darren McGavin also stars in this holiday favorite, which airs as a 24-hour marathon starting tonight on both TNT and its sister station, TBS.
THE GOLDBERGS
8:30 p.m. on 22, 6
Murray (Jeff Garlin) is dreading a Thanksgiving visit from Marvin (Dan Fogler), his brother, who always stresses the family out on holidays. Marvin arrives with a big surprise, which ratchets up Murray’s concern in “Stop Arguing and Start Thanking.” Wendi McLendon-Covey, Sean Giambrone, Troy Gentile and Hayley Orrantia also star. h Å

9 p.m. on 9
In “Building the Great Cathedrals,” filmmakers take viewers on a breathtaking journey inside some of these jewels of Gothic architecture and reveal how builders in the Middle Ages were able to construct edifices of such dizzying heights using only simple hand tools. Sometimes more than 100 years in the making, some of these once-magnificent structures now teeter on the brink of catastrophic collapse. Å (DVS)

THE 12 DOGS OF CHRISTMAS 8 p.m. on CW
Christmas and dogs — does it get any more “awww”-inspiring? Set during the Depression, this 2005 dramedy stars Jordan-Claire Green (“The School of Rock”) as a 12-yearold girl newly arrived in a town where dogs are banned.

Before the switch is flipped on the 85-foot-tall Norway Spruce (from Hemlock Township, Pa.), musical entertainment is supplied by Tony Bennett and Lady Gaga, LeAnn Rimes, Idina Menzel, Cyndi Lauper and others. h Å

PENN & TELLER: FOOL US
9 p.m. on CW
“Water Tanks for the Memories” is the title of this episode, strongly suggesting that someone is going to get very wet before the hour is over.

Jonathan Ross is the host. h

Fans of ‘The Wire’ are conflicted about its HD rerelease
HBO announced a high-definition remastering of “The Wire” several months ago, promising a series-long marathon of the show as early as late summer. It didn’t quite make that deadline, but it’s now happening. With the blessing and collaboration of creator David Simon, the remastered “Wire” will debut on HBO Signature on Friday, Dec. 26, with a marathon of each season airing for five consecutive days. It will also be available on HBO Go on Friday, with a Digital HD release on Jan. 5 and a Blu-ray set in summer 2015. The news has been greeted with glee by some fans of “The Wire” happy to see the show in circulation again and trepidation by others worried about what the transfer will do to the look of the show. When the series debuted in 2002, TV was just entering the high-def world, and HBO made the decision to film it in the more standard (and cheaper) 4:3 aspect ratio (the squarish box that now creates two black bars on the side of your widescreen set). Simon and his fellow producers made the decision to keep that look for all five seasons. Simon has taken part in the transfer (and was one of the reasons the remaster didn’t debut in the summer or fall) and says he’s on board with it – while acknowledging the transfer to 16:9 HD has its own flaws. “At the last,” he writes in a lengthy blog post explaining the process, “I’m satisfied what while this new version of ’The Wire’ is not, in some specific ways, the film we first made, it has sufficient merit to exist as an alternate version.” The news has left fans suitably ambiguous about the new version, which seems fitting for a show where nothing was ever cut-and-dried.

2014-15 CANCELED TV SHOWS: Comedy Central announced earlier this month that the upcoming third season of “Kroll Show” will be its last. The final season will premiere on Jan. 13 at and promises a list of guest stars that includes Aziz Ansari, Amy Poehler, Seth Rogen and more. Nick Kroll is not one to announce his show’s farewell with just a regular press release, though. The comedian made the announcement through one of his characters Liz G. of PubLIZity, who is gutted to inform fans that Season 3 will be the last for her and the rest of Kroll’s characters. Here’s a full list of shows that have been canceled or are airing their final seasons in 2014-15.
