Tracking Success

Despite dropping by 10% in viewers from last week, Justin Hartley’s drama is still on its way to becoming one of the most watched entertainment shows this season.

High Kick

It’s been a record season so far, and for the 10th straight week, ABC nabbed the honor of scoring the top college game of the week, thanks to the LSU–Alabama match.

paging padalecki

Jared Padalecki (above) guest starred on three episodes of Fire Country in 2024, but other than that he’s been absent from TV screens. That could soon change. The former Supernatural and

Walker star may lead the cast of a new CBS medical drama as a dedicated doctor in rural Texas, working with, according to the plot description, “his new protégée, a young doctor escaping her past.” The show has a development room, where writers and a showrunner are working on creating scripts.

If it’s a go, the project would reunite Padalecki and Walker showrunner Anna Frike, both of whom have deals at the Tiffany Network. And while there is, as of yet, no series order or targeted time frame for when the proposed show would air, it sounds like a prescription for a musttune-in show. —AT

The Roush Review

BY MATT ROUSH

Seehorn: Can she wake up the world?

@TVGMMattRoush

Pluribus

Fridays, Apple TV

MY IDEA OF happiness: a new series from Vince Gilligan, a master of the gloriously offbeat ( Breaking Bad , Better Call Saul). In his latest creation, Pluribus, he taps into the genre-blending spirit of his earlier work on The X-Files for a sci-fiinfused character drama that’s simultaneously creepy, funny and wholly original.

He has gifted his brilliant Saul star Rhea Seehorn with the role of a lifetime in Carol Sturka, who might just be the last unhappy person left on Earth. A snarky writer of romantasy novels (which she considers “mindless crap”), she finds herself isolated in an eerily transformed world where everyone but her is unusually chipper and cheerful. The startling, succulent twist: Carol is chronically allergic to anyone and everyone’s well wishes.

“We just want you to be happy,” they keep telling her, and she’s having none of it. As a bewildered Carol rebels against this Invasion of the Body Snatchers–like utopia of conformity, Seehorn boldly runs the gamut of emotions from grief and confusion to fear and rage, only the latter of which seems to ruffle the composure of her fellow citizens, each oh so polite and scrupulously honest.

Carol’s misery is our bliss, and while the contrast between her and the Stepford populace is hilarious, it’s also deeply unsettling. From week to week, I have no idea where Pluribus is heading, which makes the ride even more exciting. May we all gather as one (reflecting the show’s Latin title) to welcome what deserves to be our next streaming obsession. Make room, Severance.

Down Cemetery Road

Wednesdays (through Dec. 10), Apple TV

WITH HER SPIKY hair, punk leather ensemble and take-noprisoners attitude, Emma Thompson is a funky force to be reckoned with as private eye Zoë Boehm, the second-mostmemorable character ever created by

Slow Horses author Mick Herron. (The first would be Horses’ slovenly Jackson Lamb, played in that series by Gary Oldman.)

When Sarah (Ruth Wilson), a restless Oxford suburbanite, enlists Zoë to help her search for a girl who goes missing after an inexplicable house explosion down the block, the mystery exposes a government

A Man on the Inside

Available now, Netflix

THE JOY OF watching an old pro learn new tricks made the first season of this gentle comedy something special. Ted Danson is at the top of his game as Charles Nieuwendyk, an unhappily widowed former professor who finds new purpose and pep as an amateur private eye. (His first assignment sent him undercover at a retirement home.)

His task in Season 2 isn’t nearly as memorable or poignant, when he returns to teaching at a struggling San Francisco college to unravel a blackmail scheme that threatens to tank a donation from a toxic billionaire (hammy Gary Cole). On the plus side, Charles finds unexpected romance with Mona (Danson’s wife of 30 years, Mary Steenburgen), a wacky music teacher who might be a suspect but is absolutely guilty of bringing much-needed spontaneity to his routine. The mystery may be mostly predictable, but watching him light up in her presence creates a warm inner glow.

cover-up that puts their lives in jeopardy. While this improbable eight-part buddy thriller would benefit from Horses’ sixepisodes-a-season economy, watching Zoë evade a vengeful and relentless assassin makes you wonder how she’d fare in a toe-to-smelly-toe showdown with Lamb. Someone make that happen.

DAYS OF OUR LIVES

an Gauthier will make his Days of Our Lives debut on December 19 as Peter Blake, a character last seen in 1998.

Although the role is new to him, daytime isn’t. Gauthier was the 11th actor to portray One Life to Live’s Kevin Buchanan (from 2003 to 2010). So, when he arrived at the Days set, he spotted some familiar faces.

“I knew John-Paul Lavoisier [Philip Kiriakis] and Stacy Haiduk [Kristen DiMera], so it was really fun to reconnect,” Gauthier reports. “Everybody was so kind and accepting and welcoming. I couldn’t ask for anything better.”

With Peter last played by Jason Brooks from 1993 to 1998 and off the canvas for 27 years, Gauthier saw an opportunity to create something fresh. “I went in with ‘Whatever the dialogue and the storyline are, it’s just my own take on this,’” he

THE YOUNG AND THE RESTLESS

Tracey E. Bregman (Lauren Fenmore) and Christian J. LeBlanc (Michael Baldwin) will celebrate their alter egos’ 20th wedding anniversary with a stand-alone episode on December 9.

The milestone caught LeBlanc off guard. “It was such a surprise,” he says. “Tracey knows dates, times,

explains. “I didn’t watch anything or do any research as far as what had happened in the past. I just took what was in front of me and went that way.”

Gauthier is keeping details about who the complicated Peter is today under wraps, but his storyline will put him squarely into his family’s drama, involving Billy Flynn (Chad DiMera), Thaao Penghlis (Tony DiMera), Dan Feuerriegel (EJ DiMera) and Haiduk. “I don’t want to give up too much because that’s the fun,” he teases. “The surprise to viewers

To prepare for the celebration, revisiting the past was essential for LeBlanc. “Those montage episodes are

On set, Gauthier clicked instantly with his new soap family. “It felt like we’ve been acting together for years,” he says. “Thaao was so kind to me and was just very encouraging and made me feel good being on the set. It was fun right away.”

Beyond his Salem stint, Gauthier appeared in Lifetime’s The Girl in the Garage: The Laura Cowan Story earlier this year and teaches acting locally in Cathedral City, California, but he’d welcome the opportunity to return to soaps when his Days arc ends. “Absolutely,” he says. “I had a great time, and it was nothing but positive for me.”

sometimes very difficult,” he explains. “I had to see as much as I could of the clip before coming in or out of those memories. I think you are all going to love the stuff they picked for this.”

The anniversary special served as a powerful reminder of the partnership LeBlanc and Bregman share. “We have such a level of comfort with each other, and we had it right from the start,” he reflects. “That’s the great gift Tracey gives me. We have been very, very lucky with the writing of this couple. There’s so much fun to it.”

Miller ’s Vigoda

fi nally cracks a smile as Sgt. Phil Fish

MERRY BRIGH V

FAMILY ENTERTAINMENT TV (FETV) and Family Movie Classics (FMC) have generously stuffed our stockings with classic holiday-themed TV episodes and films all this month through Christmas Day. There are plenty more shows and movies than would fit here—go to fetv.tv/schedule and fmc.tv/schedule to check all the viewing treats.

Darrin in his holiday best

BEWITCHED

“A Vision of Sugar Plums” from the first season (1964) is just one of four Bewitched episodes where Santa makes an appearance. Bill Mumy (Lost in Space) guest stars as an orphan spending the holidays with the Stephenses, but he doesn’t believe in Santa. It’s up to Samantha to transport everyone to the North Pole for some real Christmas cheer.

BARNEY MILLER

One of the three Barney Miller holiday episodes you can catch this month is the heartwarming “Christmas Story” from 1976, the comedy’s third season. The usually dour Fish (played by Abe Vigoda) has to ho-ho it up when he goes undercover to catch a mugger who’s targeting department store Santas.

HOLIDAY INN

Instead of running a regular nightclub that closes during the holidays, Bing Crosby and Fred Astaire showcase their song-and-dance act in a country inn that is only open for the holidays. This winning 1942 musical also stars Marjorie Reynolds and Virginia Dale and boasts the first filmed version of “White Christmas.”

BELL, BOOK AND CANDLE

After Jimmy Stewart’s and Kim Novak’s thrilling roles in Vertigo in May 1958, audiences could watch the pair again that November in this much lighter fare. Novak’s hex on Stewart this time was closer to literal—she plays a witch who casts a love spell on Stewart’s book publisher over the Christmas holidays.

Five seasonal picks for the holidays

THE WONDERFUL WORLD OF DISNEY: HOLIDAY SPECTACULAR

Monday, Dec. 1, 8/7c, ABC

Get your Yuletide cheer on with Mickey, Minnie and host Derek Hough (Dancing With the Stars) for the 10th annual seasonal celebration, featuring brand-new performances straight from Florida’s Walt Disney World, California’s Disneyland and Disney’s Hawaii resort, Aulani. Pop singers Gwen Stefani and Nicole Scherzinger and country crooner Trisha Yearwood each perform.

THE

NEIGHBORHOOD

Monday, Dec. 8, 8:30/7:30c, CBS

The holidays may be near during the sitcom’s eighth and final season, but Calvin and Tina (Cedric the Entertainer and Tichina Arnold) won’t be feeling very jolly after their anniversary plans are upended in the un-merriest of ways. Next door, a misunderstanding has Gemma (Beth Behrs) tangled up like string lights.

HOW THE GRINCH STOLE CHRISTMAS!

Thursday, Dec. 4, 8/7c, NBC

Prepare to have your heart (and presents) stolen by this 1966 Dr. Seuss animated classic. On Christmas Eve, the lonely Grinch (voiced by Boris Karloff) sets out to rid Whoville of all holiday spirit. He takes gifts and decorations but forms an unlikely bond with little Cindy Lou Who (June Foray). As the Grinch waits for the fallout of his actions, he learns Christmas is about more than material goods.

Celebrating its 60th anniversary, this hilarious, heartwarming classic will stream on Apple TV free for two days only—no subscription needed. Just download the Apple TV app on your device and sign in with your Apple ID. Because whether it’s the jazzy Vince Guaraldi score, the iconic Peanuts dance or Linus’ center-stage speech, Charlie Brown’s search for the true meaning of the season is a gift everyone deserves.

BOB’S BURGERS

Sunday, Dec. 14, 9:30/8:30c, Fox

This side-splitting seasonal episode of the animated sitcom is described by creator Loren Bouchard as “A Charlie Brown Christmas meets Snowpiercer.” As the Belcher family enters a Christmas village, chef dad Bob (voiced by H. Jon Benjamin) hones his cookie decorating skills; wife Linda (John Roberts) rescues the ugliest of trees; and daughter Louise (Kristen Schaal) gets in a “mini-train stunt-off,” teases Bouchard, with her nemesis.

SEASON FINALE

8/7c, The CW

Talk about a cultural touchstone. Touched by an Angel, the 1994–2003 CBS drama that followed angels inspiring humans to connect with God, was a major hit for the network. (The show twice graced the cover of TV GUIDE MAGAZINE, notably our 1996 Holiday Guide, inset.) So it’s no surprise that the spirited series starring (from near right) Roma Downey as angel Monica and Della Reese as her haloed supervisor Tess is the final show highlighted in The CW’s well-named docuseries TV We Love. Downey, Alexis Cruz (angel Rafael), guest star Scott Baio (Det. Frank McCovey), plus writers and producers all contribute their memories to the installment. (Reese passed away in 2017.) “Every series we featured had to have a compelling backstory,” says executive producer Megan Harding. For Angel, it was the remarkable guest cast, which, as Harding notes, included “not only famous movie stars like Kirk

WeÕre Bringing Flexy Back

The Stauer Flex gives you vintage style with a throwback price of only $59.

Just like a good wristwatch movement, fashion is cyclical. And there’s a certain wristwatch trend that was huge in the 1960s and then again in the 1980s, and is ready for its third time in the spotlight. We’re talking, of course, about the flexible stretch watch band.

To purchase a vintage 60s or 80s classic flex watch would stretch anyone’s budget, but you can get ahead of the crowd and secure a brand new version for a much lower price. We’re rolling back the years AND the numbers by pricing the Stauer Flex like this, so you can put some bend in your band without making a dent in your wallet.

The Stauer Flex combines 1960s vintage cool with 1980s boardroom style. The stainless steel flex band ensures minimal fuss and the sleek midnight blue face keeps you on track with date and day subdials.

Your satisfaction is 100% guaranteed. Experience the Stauer Flex for 30 days. If you’re not convinced you got excellence for less, send it back for a refund of the item price. Your satisfaction is our top priority.

Time is running out. As our top selling watch, we can’t guarantee the Flex will stick around long. Don’t overpay to be underwhelmed.

Flex your right to put a precision timepiece on your wrist for just $59. Call today!

“The quality of their watches is equal to many that can go for ten times the price or more.”

Next Level Baker

SERIES PREMIERE 9/8c, Fox

CHEF GORDON RAMSAY has made his list, checked it twice and gathered 12 of the best bakers in the country to compete in this new three-week holiday spinoff of his cooking competition Next Level Chef. Alongside Candace Nelson, cofounder of Sprinkles Cupcakes, and Carla Hall of Food Network’s Holiday Baking Championship (above left, with Ramsay and Nelson), Ramsay serves as a judge and mentor to the dedicated confectioners working out of a three-story kitchen set that has been transformed into a winter wonderland, complete with carolers, ice skaters, a fun ukulele player and a children’s choir raising holiday spirits.

“It is so much larger than I thought it would be,” Hall says of the thematic setup. “When I saw it for the first time, I was awestruck. I feel

Best Christmas Movies Ever!

8/7c, The CW

like I’m a kid, and the gift of the holidays was seeing the kitchen for the first time.”

The talented bakers, whose hometowns range from New York to California, are competing for something even sweeter than the desserts they’re creating: a $25,000 prize, plus a coveted HexClad cookware package. In tonight’s premiere, the first challenge is to make winter goodies that invoke memories of the past. Then, after an elimination round, boozy holiday party treats are on the menu. And don’t expect to see just the usual Christmas cookies and eggnog recipes in this, or future episodes.

“The challenges are real,” says Hall. “We’re pushing the envelope with them having to lean into a particular culture and pull some of that out.” —Ryan A. Berenz

Twelve Dates ’Til Christmas

SERIES PREMIERE 8/7c, Hallmark Channel

There are few actors who can boast a fourdecade career and still be under age 40, and Mae Whitman (right) is one of them. Her career has taken her from television hits like Arrested Development , Parenthood and Good Girls to movies with George Clooney, Meg Ryan and Bill Pullman. In this new series based on the beloved book by Jenny Bayliss, Whitman finds herself in the U.K. playing Kate, a textile pattern designer who is in a rut when her friends recruit her for a holiday-themed matchmaking program. And these dates are anything but routine.

“There are some doozies,” Whitman teases. “I really felt for her. She

Spartacus: House of Ashur

SERIES PREMIERE 9/8c, Starz

This 10-episode resurrection of the Spartacus franchise imagines what would have happened if cunning gladiator Ashur (Nick E. Tarabay, above) wasn’t killed in the 2013 finale of Spartacus: Vengeance. Now

Joining her in the fun are Jane Seymour and Mary McDonnell, as well as Julian Morris, Toby Sandeman, Nathaniel Parker and Lucy Eaton. “I walked away with a lot of really good friends,” Whitman reflects. As for viewers? They’ll walk away with a cozy, feel-good, festive adventure—one that, even if it takes some time, will lead to love.

Barb Oates

owner of his former master’s hunk-filled gladiator school, he bets that a ferocious gladiatrix, Achillia (Tenika Davis), can make him rich and famous.

Christmas at the Inn

MOVIE PREMIERE 8/7c, Great American Family

JILL WAGNER AND Trevor Donovan check in for this cozy holiday romance. Wagner (above) stars as Beth Green, a café owner who returns to her hometown of Snow Ridge to host the annual Yuletide Potluck. This small-town holiday gathering has Beth crossing paths with Jack Evans (Donovan), a civil engineer with the military, whom she went on a blind date with 20 years ago—an outing they’d both rather keep in the past.

Reindeer in Here

8/7c, CBS

With two different-size antlers, Blizzard is no usual North Pole reindeer. When the future of Christmas is put in danger, Blizzard and his unique friends team up to save the holidays in this 2022 children’s animation special.

The Christmas Showdown

MOVIE PREMIERE 9/8c, OWN

Friendly rivalry? Hardly! Estranged childhood pals April (Corbin Reid, right) and Chastity (Amber Stevens West) pursue the same event design job— and impressing producer Hen (Loretta Devine) is Job No. 1.

“It was the opposite of a connection at first,” Wagner teases about Beth and Jack’s ill-fated initial meeting. “It reminds me that sometimes people need a second chance at a first impression.”

As the magic of the holiday season surrounds them, Beth and Jack’s frosty feelings begin to melt—but viewers will have to tune in to see if their connection will endure the mistletoe season. —Avery Thompson

SEASON FINALE 9/8c, Fox

THE ODDS ARE in their favor. The pool of players, which started with 100 contestants in September pitted against each other in TV’s most bizarre challenges, is now down to the final six. Those remaining hope to earn the $1 million cash prize. “If you’ve been watching the show, you know it’s incredibly competitive,” says Erin Andrews (right), who cohosts with Ken Jeong. “That doesn’t change in the finale.”

The silly games they play tonight include the Confetti Sweep, where players must use paintbrushes to get confetti off the ground. (“I cannot imagine having to execute this game,” says Andrews. “I can barely clean my own floors.”) Another tough one: Alphabetti Golf, in which contestants search for golf balls in a big tub while keeping track of the alphabet.

“Ken and I got to sit back and watch everything unfold. It was tense and hardcore,” Andrews previews. “The surprise moment at the end completely blew us away.” —Emily Aslanian

SHERIFF MICKEY FOX (Morena Baccarin, right) has to contend with drama on the homefront and the work front tonight. There’s a tense visit from her stepsister Sharon (Diane Farr, crossing over from Fire Country) and major violence erupting within Edgewater’s seemingly idyllic cannabis community.

“One of the things we do in Sheriff Country is show some of the darker corners of Edgewater that viewers may not have seen before on Fire Country ,” says showrunner Matt Lopez of the fictional Northern Californian setting of the freshman hit and the show it spun off from. “This is a police drama, so in Fire Country, the enemy is the elements—fire and nature. Here, it is human beings.”

And in this week’s hour, written by Lopez and directed by The Walking Dead vet Sarah Wayne Callies, that becomes tragically clear after a brutal crime leaves one citizen clinging to life and lights up some major issues for the legal weed farmers. Thankfully, Mickey knows how to take care of business, having grown up around the shadiest of sorts in what Lopez calls the “lawless, semi-governed” part of town, nicknamed Deadwater. We are fully expecting this badass with a badge to harsh quite a few buzzes. —Damian Holbrook

LET THE BOWLS begin! It’s a packed day for college football fans, and the pigskin pageantry kicks off at Mercedes-Benz Stadium in Atlanta with the Cricket Celebration Bowl, where the winners of the MEAC and SWAC conferences will play for the Historically Black Colleges and Universities’ national championship.

Later, another great tradition, the Army–Navy football game, is played for the 126th time when the Black Knights (the Cadets) meet the Midshipmen (the Middies) at M&T Bank Stadium in Baltimore. Navy leads the overall series 63–55–7, but Army has won six of the last nine contests, including a 20–17 double-overtime thriller in 2022. This season, the Middies got off to a hot 7–0 start, but they hit a rough patch when star quarterback Blake Horvath (right) was injured during a 31–17 loss at North Texas and was forced to sit out of the following week’s 49–10 loss at Notre Dame. Horvath will hopefully be healthy to face his Cadet counterpart, Cale Hellums, in a matchup of ground-pounding QBs.

Plus, the year’s most outstanding college football player will be awarded the Heisman Trophy in a Big Apple ceremony. Ohio State’s Julian Sayin, Indiana’s Fernando Mendoza, Alabama’s Ty Simpson and Texas A&M’s Marcel Reed, all QBs, are among the finalists who could get invites. And then the epic night ends with the Bucked Up LA Bowl at SoFi Stadium in California. —Ryan A. Berenz

Dick Van Dyke 100th Birthday Binge

Catchy Comedy

HAPPY 100TH BIRTHDAY, Dick!

Or, as Laura Petrie (Mary Tyler Moore) might say to her legendary TV spouse, “Oh, Rob!”

To celebrate the star’s (born December 13, 1925) centennial, a weekend-long binge begins December 13 at 6am/5c and airs till December 15 at 2am/1c.

Over three days, 100 episodes of the 1960s classic The Dick Van Dyke Show, inspired by creator Carl Reiner’s life as a TV comedy writer living in suburban New York, will air.

Van Dyke’s chemistry with Moore was unmistakable, though censors insisted Rob and Laura sleep in separate

beds. Still, as Van Dyke told TV GUIDE MAGAZINE in 2004, “You just got the feeling that they had a physical relationship, which was unusual back then.”

In his memoir My Lucky Life In and Out of Show Business, he wrote, “Every time [they] came up with a new situation that caused Laura to wince, ‘Oh, Rob!’ I thought, ‘Oh, good, this is going to be fun.’” It sure was, and still is. —Matt Roush

Finding Mr. Christmas

SEASON FINALE 8/7c, Hallmark Channel

AFTER WEEKS OF festive face-offs, acting challenges and emotional eliminations, the warmest, fuzziest competition closes out its standout second season. With only three of the original 10 hopefuls left standing, it all comes down to nailing a scene with Hallmark Channel fave Kristoffer Polaha and bringing that positive energy the network is known for to the screen. “You’re not going to be a contestant on Finding Mr. Christmas if you don’t have a big heart and you don’t lead with kindness,” notes Ben Roy, who executive produces with show creator and host Jonathan Bennett (above, with head judge Melissa Peterman and guest

judge Erin Krakow). “That’s one of our biggest things. As a Hallmark star, that’s who you are.” The winner, like last season, earns a starring role in a Hallmark movie, but it’s not as if the runners-up are getting lumps of coal. “They’re not just contestants to us,” adds Roy of the family bond formed during production in Utah. “We wanted them to come into this and have an amazing experience. Whether they win the show or they’re out first, we want them to walk away feeling like they really learned something and that they were respected.” Which is probably the best gift you can give someone. —Damian Holbrook

The intense two-part midseason finale opens with the discovery of three slain sex workers. But this killer has a much bigger and more dangerous agenda for New York, which becomes visible in the second hour (9/8c) when cell towers, internet and emergency services are wiped out.

English National Ballet’s Nutcracker

8/7c, PBS (check local listings at pbs.org)

WHAT WOULD THE holiday season be without a lavish production of Tchaikovsky’s beloved Nutcracker ? Thankfully, we won’t have to find out. Great Performances is airing a spectacular new staging, filmed last year at the London Coliseum, with more than 100 dancers and musicians bringing the 1892 masterpiece to life.

Set against an evocative Edwardian backdrop, with chimney sweeps and suffragettes reminiscent of Disney’s Mary Poppins , the timeless ballet transports a sleeping Clara (Delilah Wiggins as a child, Ivana Bueno as an adolescent) and her magically transformed Nutcracker Prince (Francesco Gabriele Frola) into a fantasyland of ice and snow. (Anna Nevzorova, left, dances the Ice Queen.) In the second act, the Sugar Plum Fairy (Emma Hawes) and her dashing Cavalier (Aitor Arrieta) introduce the pair to a smorgasbord of exotic dancing sweets from around the world. Overseeing it all is the mischievous toy maker and puppet master Drosselmeyer (scene-stealing Junor Souza).

The choreography by English National Ballet artistic director Aaron S. Watkin and Olivier Award winner Arielle Smith earned raves, with TheGuardian describing the production as “familiar but fresh, colorful but still classy, sweet but not sickly. A solid success.” We agree! — Matt Roush

Survivor

SEASON FINALE

PREPARE FOR DRAMA: Despite a slowburning first half of the season, host Jeff Probst (right) promises that “pentup emotion and desperation start to percolate” in the reality competition’s final episode of the season. “Once you get a little food in the belly and the inspiration of a possible spot on Survivor 50starts to kick in, suddenly, that slow burn turns into a short fuse that’s been lit,” he shares. “To win Survivor, you have to take a swing, knowing it could cost you everything. You have to risk your spot to earn your shot.” That includes impressing the jury, who, according to the host, deliver a “very lively, interactive interrogation of the final three.”

After tonight’s episode, viewers will not only find out who reigns victorious—they’ll also know which players will claim the two spots on 2026’s milestone 50th season. (They could be from any season!) — Kelli Boyle

Ghosts

9/8c, CBS

Another Christmas means another possession at Woodstone. For Season 5’s two-part “Ghostmas” episodes, the action revolves around a nationally televised interview promoting B&B proprietor Sam’s (Rose McIver) book Isaac Higgintoot: Colonial Vampire, which recounts the life of Revolutionary soldier (and current spirit) Isaac (Brandon Scott Jones) with a supernatural twist. And according to star Asher Grodman, who portrays pantsless finance bro and resident haunt Trevor, the twists don’t end there. “The ghost shenanigans are at play in a new creative way,” he teases. “The way that we get to possession…we’ve never used this as the way in before.”

Over the years, Sam, Jay (Utkarsh

Live Christmas

9/8c, NBC

Chestnuts roast by the open fire and laughs abound in the classic comedy show’s annual compilation of its funniest Christmas-themed skits. As we all know, it just wouldn’t be the holidays without Season 24’s “Schweddy Balls” sketch with Molly Shannon, Ana Gasteyer and 17-time host Alec Baldwin!

Ambudkar) and the spirits of Woodstone have discovered possession is possible when a “living” is electrocuted, allowing for a ghost to find residence in their body, such as when Sam was possessed by basement ghost Nancy (Betsy Sodaro). So which living is next for the taking?

Grodman remains tight-lipped but promises that viewers can expect the holiday installments to take inspiration from pop culture. “We pick up on a classic Christmas movie and use it as a way to look at our show,” he says. And while he wouldn’t reveal which film serves as thematic inspiration, we imagine it’s likely to please the ghosts of Christmas past, present and future. —Meaghan Darwish

The UnBelievable With Dan Aykroyd

9/8c, History Channel

Much like the specters in his hit comic masterpiece Ghostbusters, Dan Aykroyd is deadly serious about spirits both malicious and kind, communication with the dead and alien visitors. The actor, whose star rose on the early days of Saturday Night Live, talks about his unexpected encounters and teases what viewers can expect when they tune in tonight.

It seems that this is the perfect show for you to host. My family has had a longtime interest in supernatural events. My great-grandfather Sam Aykroyd was part of a psychic group in Upstate New York, and my dad wrote a book called A History of Ghosts

Based on that, I have to assume you also believe in the supernatural. My belief is that our consciousness survives after death. I’ve also had several [UFO] sightings, including one in Montreal when a huge object hovered about 20 feet outside our hotel window.

Tonight’s episode is called “Defying Death.” What can you tell us about the stories?These folks survived vicious shark attacks, being buried alive, multiple crashes and falling out of planes! That one’s about a woman whose parachute didn’t open and she fell 17,000 feet onto a jungle floor. She survived by landing on a giant fire-ant nest. The many stings she got gave her the adrenaline needed to keep her heart pumping! — Ileane Rudolph

MOVIE PREMIERE 8/7c, The CW

Sparks fly when Caro (Katharine King So) gives couture heiress and childhood nemesis Philippa (Kathryn Gallagher, above right, with So) a place to stay in this rom-com that puts a stylish, Sapphic spin on the Harlequin novel it’s based on. “Their chemistry is playful, heartfelt and impossible to fake,” executive producer Craig Cegielski says. “Their journey isn’t about one rescuing the other; it’s about two people helping each other evolve—personally, professionally and emotionally. That makes the romance both timeless and contemporary.” —Morgan Pryor

Holiday cheer has fallen upon Season 2 of the rebooted tic-tac-toe-inspired game show, which is celebrating with two jolly-themed episodes. “The stars showed up in their festive best, and we’ve got a bunch of new faces like Tim Meadows and Meghan Trainor,” tease showrunners Jen Ryan and Rob Crabbe.

Along with host Nate Burleson (above, top left), center square Drew Barrymore (top right), Meadows and Trainor, the star-studded celebrity “elves” playing in tonight’s game include Tichina Arnold (bottom left), Michelle Buteau, Ana Gasteyer, Thomas Lennon, Bobby Moynihan (bottom right), Pete Holmes and Triumph the Insult Comic Dog. They’ll meet two Christmas-obsessed contestants hoping to win money and prizes, and “for what must be the first time in the show’s long history, the Squares do some holiday caroling,” according to the showrunners. No bah, humbug here!

Expect to see the whole works: decor, jokes and, of course, merry songs. Plus, some players on the panel surprised the group with their game-playing skills. “For first-time Squares, Ana Gasteyer and Michelle Buteau were right at home and hilarious,” Ryan and Crabbe report. “And while Bobby Moynihan understood the game, he might have been a little confused on what holiday we were celebrating!” — Andrea Towers

Blue Lights

NEW EPISODES STREAM

THURSDAYS ON BRITBOX

HARD CASE TO CRACK

Rich criminals, the mob, corrupt officials—it all adds up to the toughest challenge yet for the gutsy officers on BritBox’s thrilling Blue Lights BY KATE HAHN

White-knuckling it at the wheel of a police car during a chase, the usually calm Constable Grace Ellis (Siân Brooke) of the Police Service of Northern Ireland cries into her radio to the command center, “Tell me what to do!” Turning right or left at the next corner could mean life or death.

It’s one of the heart-pounding Season 3 scenes TV GUIDE MAGAZINE observed on the Belfast set of BritBox’s Blue Lights. The gritty, acclaimed police drama in the vein of The Wire won a 2025 BAFTA, the British equivalent of the Emmy, for best drama and has been renewed for a fourth season. (New episodes drop through December 18.)

“Grace can’t help but stand up for the right thing,” Brooke told us later in the storeroom of a pub, one of the real-life locations the series uses instead of soundstages. That’s just one way Blue Lights keeps things authentic. Much of the story is in the cast’s bones. Brooke’s dad was a police officer. “I saw the person underneath the uniform. I think that’s why people enjoy the show. It shows the human side of this job.”

That side of policing was well known to the series’ creators, former TV journalists Declan Lawn and Adam Patterson. They were inspired while covering a 2013 riot fueled by the animosity between Catholic Irish nationalists and Protestant Union loyalists. The factions had long clashed during “The

Troubles,” which officially ended with the 1998 Good Friday Agreement, but criminal gangs rose from the ashes. Lawn recalls, “We thought, is there a more emotional way to tell this story?”

Ten years later, the series premiered with three probationary recruits trying to make the cut in a city where the personal and political intertwine. Grace, an English single mom to a teen boy, was most streetwise due to an earlier job as a social worker. Among her colleagues are Catholic Annie Conlon (Katherine Devlin), who has an unpredictable streak, and Protestant Tommy Foster (Nathan Braniff), sometimes too earnest and loyal for his own good. The rookies have been through

Show of force: Blue Light stars (clockwise from far left) Brooke; Osho and McCann; Devlin; Braniff and Blake; and McKinney

“Blue Lights isn’t your typical sexy, sleek cop drama. It’s rough, organic. There’s a fearless element to what we’re trying to portray.”

tragedy and joy. Tommy’s mentor, dedicated Gerry Cliff (Richard Dormer), was killed, leaving a widow, Sgt. Sandra Cliff (Andi Osho); Annie clashed and then bonded with experienced new addition Shane Bradley (Frank Blake); and Grace began a romance with her patrol partner, veteran cop and worldweary widower Stevie Neil (Martin McCann), a stickler for rules.

The relationships make things fraught in Season 3’s six explosive episodes, involving cocaine smuggling and sex trafficking at a posh members’ club. During the investigation, Grace crosses paths with a former client, troubled teen Lindsay (Aoife Hughes), leading to a

Katherine Devlin

revelation about Grace’s past that threatens her bond with Stevie.

“It’s not a Hollywood romance,” says McCann, a West Belfast native, at the location for fictional Blackthorn Police Station. “Stevie goes against his nature for someone he loves. The scenes were relentless emotionally and physically, with moving cars, stuntmen, shouting.” Through shoot-outs, ambushes and riots, the friends protect each other.

Real to Reel

To keep it real, the cast trained at the police academy and went on ride-alongs. TV GUIDE MAGAZINE did the same ride from the trendy city center to West Belfast, where

“peace walls” separate nationalist Catholic and unionist Protestant neighborhoods.

“I’d only ever seen one side of the peace wall. It wouldn’t have been normal for me to hang about over there,” Braniff says. Like Tommy, he grew up in working-class Belfast. This season, Tommy’s girlfriend, Constable Aisling Byrne (Dearbháile McKinney), gets PTSD after responding to a horrific car crash and falls into risky behavior. “He wants to support her. But there is a line Tommy isn’t willing to cross or let her cross.”

At the accident with Aisling is Annie, who must cope with death threats—she even receives a black wreath and bullet in the mail—and her mother’s terminal cancer.

“For Annie, there’s that question, ‘Is it all worth it?’” Devlin says. “What I want for people to take away is to talk about really hard things—grief, trauma, mental health. Blue Lights isn’t your typical sexy cop drama that’s sleek and polished. It’s rough, ready, organic, real. I love when a TV show isn’t afraid. There’s a fearless element to what we’re trying to portray.”

That formula is what elevates the action on Blue Lights, no matter what may be lurking just around the corner.

STRANGER THINGS

The Left-Handed Girl

AVAILABLE NOW

This fast-moving Taipei-set film, a blend of light charm and deep family drama, follows debt-ridden single mother Shu-Fen (Janel Tsai) as she tries to make a living with a noodle stand in a crowded market. She’s also responsible for cynical, unhappy teenage daughter I-Ann (Shih-Yuan Ma) and the titular character, I-Jing (Nina Ye, above), a perky 5-year-old whose wide-eyed need to explore— including some shoplifting—is irresistible. —Ileane Rudolph

The Stringer: The Man Who Took the Photo

AVAILABLE NOW

A shot of a shrieking, naked 12-year-old girl, her body burned by napalm, remains the indelible image of the Vietnam War. One famous photojournalist got credit for taking the picture; the man who really took it, part-time stringer Nguyen Thanh Nghe (above right) was erased from history… until now. That fact and more are exposed in this documentary that stresses the importance of getting to the truth. —Tanya Fedak

“The stakes are as high as they can get: the end of the world,” says Matt Duffer, cocreator (with his brother Ross) of the fifth and final season of the sci-fi/horror hit. Adds Ross: “The battle sequences are the biggest we’ve ever had.”

That’s saying a lot for this 1980s-set thriller where nerdy kids battle monsters from a parallel world, the Upside

Down. With Hawkins, Indiana, in military lockdown, the heroes are united by a single goal: find and kill the creature Vecna. Linda Hamilton joins the cast as a government agent hunting Eleven (Millie Bobby Brown). The life-or-death conclusion rolls out in three volumes (November 26, December 25 and December 31). —Kate Hahn

TRAIN DREAMS

A remarkable film about a seemingly unremarkable man of the early 20th century, director and cowriter Clint Bentley’s sensitive adaptation of Denis Johnson’s acclaimed novella tells a deceptively simple fable of love, loss and endurance set against the soaring backdrop of the Pacific Northwest. Joel Edgerton (Dark Matter) stars as stoic logger and railroad worker Robert Grainier, who finds great joy with his wife (Felicity Jones, above, with Edgerton) and child but also crushing grief and existential despair

when confronted with the violence of his fellow man and cruel caprices of Mother Nature. “Robert doesn’t do anything that alters the course of history,” says Bentley. “He doesn’t fight in some great battle or create an invention that changes people’s lives, and yet he lives a very deep and rich life.” —Matt Roush

Look for some serious wattage in a pair of Netflix films

Existential crises have never looked so good! George Clooney gives the performance of his career in this gorgeous feature from Barbie writer Noah Baumbach as the titular Jay Kelly, a massive movie star on the verge of a breakdown. Plagued by recollections and regrets over relationships that were reduced to supporting roles by his career, Jay drags his publicist (Laura Dern) and manager (Adam Sandler, above right, with Clooney) into an ill-advised European vacation that slowly teaches this celebrity who seems to have it all that he’s not too old to reboot his personal life…and perhaps even regain the love of those he let slip away.

FRIDAY, DEC. 12

“I will lay bare the sins of this flock,” boasts flamboyant sleuth Benoit Blanc (Daniel Craig) in his third Knives Out outing, tackling a “classic impossible crime” inside a church in full view of parishioners. And what a flock, played to the hilt by the likes of Kerry Washington and Glenn Close (above), as well as Andrew Scott and Josh O’Connor as the former boxer turned priest who’s the prime suspect. “They’re all lovely folks who get along, which is the whole dinner party aspect of it,” says writer-director Rian Johnson. A good time is had by all. —MR

2There are plenty of fiery face-offs between Gillian Anderson’s wealthy matriarch Constance Van Ness and Game of Thrones’ Lena Headey (above), who plays Fiona Nolan, an Irish immigrant with an adopted multiethnic brood.

3Starting with a shocking murder in the first episode, the stakes get higher and higher as the story expands with hired killers, a forbidden romance, betrayal and revenge! —IR

Man vs Baby

THURSDAY, DEC. 11

The crazier the chaos the better for Rowan Atkinson (above). He dealt with stinging adversaries in Man vs Bee; in this comedic sequel, Atkinson’s Trevor Bingley has the seemingly less stressful task of school caretaker…until someone leaves behind the baby from the school’s Nativity scene. How will he balance the baby and a gig looking after a luxury penthouse while still embracing the holiday spirit? —Avalon Blumenthal

What they don’t realize: He has a long-plotted plan to destroy them. —Ileane Rudolph

WEDNESDAY, DEC. 17

America, circa 2296, 200 years into a post-nuclear apocalypse: The lucky live in sprawling fallout bunkers, Eisenhowerera Edens called Vaults. The unlucky fight for survival above in the Wasteland. This captivating second season of the sci-fi series adapted from the video game franchise unites the Vault-born-and-raised Lucy (Ella Purnell) with the Ghoul (Walton Goggins), a Wasteland bounty hunter and onetime 1950s cowboy actor. His survival is one of the show’s intriguing mysteries.

In the first season’s finale, Lucy, who has been on a quest to find her idolized, kidnapped

father Hank (Kyle MacLachlan) learned the man had actually committed monstrous crimes. Now, she and the Ghoul search for Hank while in a dangerous pursuit to confront those pulling the strings in this hellscape.

“Is she going to become more like me, or am I going to become more like her?” Goggins reflected when we visited the L.A. set, a vacant strip mall. It could go either way in these eight episodes, which feature the debut of Deathclaws, the games’ notorious reptilian. Said Goggins, “I’m excited about being scared.” —Kate Hahn
