It wasn’t just Thanksgiving, today also marked ONE MONTH UNTIL CHRISTMAS DAY!  We’re in full elf mode over here and we’ll be decorating some trees tonight while Michael Bublé’s Christmas album accompanies us — it was one of our mother’s favorite albums, and it quickly became a staple for our holiday season.  We hope all who are celebrating are enjoying their Thanksgiving, and if you’re not then we hope your day is still filled with joy!  Happy Holidays! ✨🎄

Stay Merry,

“Zoey’s Extraordinary Christmas” will also feature cast members Alex Newell, Mary Steenburgen, Skylar Astin, John Clarence Stewart, Andrew Leeds, Alice Lee, Michael Thomas Grant, Kapil Talwalkar, David St. Louis, Peter Gallagher, and Bernadette Peters.

“Today” show anchors Savannah Guthrie, Hoda Kotb and Al Roker will host the three-hour telecast; viewers nationwide can catch all the action via the special broadcasts on NBC and Telemundo, from 9 a.m.-12 p.m. in all time zones, and for the first time fans can also livestream coverage on Peacock.

HBO Max is getting in on the holiday fun this year starting today, Thursday, November 18th, with the launch of the Holiday Wonderland spotlight page of the subscription streaming service.

Keep in mind that the Naughty section will offer content geared towards adults, including “Black Christmas”, holiday themed episodes of “South Park”, and the original film “Santa Inc.”  The Nice section will feature family-friendly content, including “Elf” and holiday themed episodes of “Full House”.

Keep on the lookout for the Max Originals, including “Santa Inc.” along with “8-Bit Christmas” and season two of “12 Dates of Christmas”, which will stream along with jolly classics, such as “A Christmas Story”, “National Lampoon’s Christmas Vacation”, “The Polar Express”, the full “Harry Potter” collection and musical specials like “My Gift: A Christmas Special From Carrie Underwood”.

Mariah Carey‘s very first Apple TV+ Christmas special last year was a massive hit, so it’s not surprising that the streaming service wanted to team back up with the music icon this year to recreate that magic once more. The holiday spectacular “Mariah’s Christmas: The Magic Continues” will debut globally on Friday, December 3rd!

The special will also serve as the first and only performance of the multi-Grammy Award-winning singer’s latest single, “Fall in Love at Christmas”, a collaboration with Grammy-nominated singer Khalid and Grammy-winning legend Kirk Franklin.  She will also perform a new rendition of the classic, “Christmas (Baby Please Come Home)”.

“Mariah’s Christmas: The Magic Continues” will feature an exclusive interview with Apple Music’s Zane Lowe and Carey, along with her 10-year-old twins, son Moroccan and daughter Monroe, as they share favorite holiday moments, and Carey celebrates her beloved holiday classic, “All I Want For Christmas Is You,” and Apple TV+’s perennial smash hit, “Mariah Carey’s Magical Christmas Special.”
