October’s not even over, and ABC is already prepping for the holidays. The network released its exciting lineup of Christmas movies and specials to watch in November and December.

ABC is celebrating the holidays with old classics like “Santa Claus Is Comin’ to Town” and “A Charlie Brown Christmas.” However, the network also has plenty of new specials and programming airing as well. To celebrate the 50th anniversary of the Christmas-themed PEANUTS special, the network is bringing together celebrities and musical guests to honor the cartoon characters. This year also marks the 20th anniversary of “Toy Story,” which ABC will also mark with a behind-the-scenes special about the making of the Pixar movie. And country lovers can’t forget about the “CMA Country Christmas.” Although performers have yet to be announced, Jennifer Nettles will return as the host.
