Welcome to SitcomsOnline Digest! Hopefully you're keeping warm during this very cold Christmas weekend (depending upon where you are!). We've got news about the upcoming Community movie, another preview of That '90s Show, and plenty of marathons to keep you inside this weekend. Let's get going!

- It's not exactly Christmas (other than being a Christmas Carol), but Decades has a binge of The Carol Burnett Show this weekend.
- It's one of the most out of the blue things that we've seen, but TruTV has a marathon of Hangin' with Mr. Cooper this weekend, then a marathon of Step by Step next weekend.
- There is a very long list of special Christmas programming and marathons that we could list here, but it is better summarized in this post from yesterday.
