ABC Family's 25 Days of Christmas; GSN Remembers Louis Nye

ABC Family Channel will continue its annual 25 days of Christmas tradition this year with jolly specials, merry movies, and much more! Join ABC Family for timeless specials with Frosty the Snowman, Rudolph the Red-Nosed Reindeer, Jack Frost and more. ABC Family will bring you two new original movies which are yet to be named even and holiday classics from the past such as Home Alone 2, How the Grinch Stole Christmas, and sitcom's number one family The Brady's in A Very Brady Christmas! You can even catch all the Christmas episodes of ABC Family's favorite sitcom Full House. I'm sure the other sitcoms they air will have holiday episodes in their regular timeslots as well. For the full 25 days of Christmas line-up, which is still not final, click here. We will update it constantly, so keep checking back!

GSN will be airing a tribute on Saturday, Oct. 15 to TV talent Louis Nye, who passed away last Sunday at the age of 92. Nye, a well known comedian, made his first television appearance on The Steve Allen Show where, as the character Gordon Hathaway he coined the phrase "Hi Ho Steverino." Over the years, Nye was a guest star on multiple TV shows, including Love American Style, The Love Boat, Laverne & Shirley, and St. Elsewhere. His most recent TV appearance was on Curb Your Enthusiasm.
