'Tis the season to annoy everyone by using "'tis the season" way too many times when talking about holiday stuff. Halloween hasn't even happened yet, but the Christmas decorations are already taking over drug stores so ABC is just going ahead and announcing its 2015 holiday lineup. It's something to look forward to after the candy is gone, anyway, and since the "Toy Story 20th Anniversary Special" and "It's Your 50th Christmas, Charlie Brown" are involved, you should definitely mark your calendars.
Here's a chronological list of holiday programming highlights, via ABC:
Friday, November 27
"Santa Claus Is Comin' To Town" - In the perennial favorite created in 1970 by Rankin-Bass Productions ("Rudolph the Red-Nosed Reindeer," "Frosty the Snowman"), Fred Astaire narrates this timeless tale of Kris Kringle (Mickey Rooney), a young boy with an immense desire to do good things for others. The vocal cast features Mickey Rooney as Kris Kringle, Keenan Wynn as Winter,...

Everything is bigger in Texas — especially the scandals — and no one knows that better than Gcb (Sunday, 10/9c, ABC) stud Blake Riley, played by Mark Deklin. As the secretly gay (but openly hot) husband of Miriam Shore’s Cricket, Blake and his wife frantically attempt to run their fashion empire while keeping their little “arrangement” under wraps. But as the Rileys learned last week, nothing stays secret forever.
Deklin recently chatted with TVLine about the repercussions of Amanda’s discovery, the return of Blake’s scorned “mistress” Booth, and why he wishes he played a gay cowboy years ago.

Laurence Fishburne hasn't watched "CSI: Crime Scene Investigation" since he left, but his feelings toward the series are good ones.
"I enjoyed it a lot," the Emmy and Tony winner tells Zap2it of his two years-plus on the drama. "I learned a lot, and I really appreciated the opportunity to connect with a viewing audience of that size regularly. That's something television gives you that I'd never had the opportunity for, so I'm really grateful for that."
Dr. Ray Langston, Fishburne's "CSI" alter ego, left on a dark note after killing the tormentor who had kidnapped Langston's ex-wife. "It was great, it was great," Fishburne says of that exit, which yielded an opening for Ted Danson to join the CBS show this season. "I don't think that was the way it was intended, but it just kind of worked out that way."
A big-screen staple of such movies as "Boyz N the Hood,...

Get your chaps and spurs on. The Western genre is riding back into Tinseltown, but perhaps not as you know it.
The Wild West has been popular on the silver screen since 1903's silent film The Great Train Robbery, with John Wayne, Charles Bronson and Clint Eastwood making their name in the genre.
More fantastical tales in an Old West setting have included 1977's The Shadow of Chikara (you can read all about that here), Wild Wild West (1999) and Westworld (1973).
Westworld starred James Brolin (who is, of course, married to Barbra Streisand) whose son Josh Brolin stepped into the genre for this year's Jonah Hex, based on the DC Comics title about a disfigured gunslinger.
It was a critical and commercial dud but, undeterred, Hollywood is hoping for better luck adapting Western-themed comic books with Cowboys & Aliens - released next July and starring Daniel Craig and Harrison Ford as cowboys...
