TV Christmas Special Schedules for 2022 have been announced.

Listening to WJBR’s Christmas music brings back warm holiday memories each year. We all grew up listening to these songs. Our range of years in our Christmas music goes from 1942 (‘White Christmas’ by Bing) all the way to 2022 (‘Last Christmas’ by the Backstreet Boys).

The era of the network TV Christmas special is just as vast!

There is something with meaningful Christmas memories for multiple generations. Baby Boomers, Gen X’ers and Millennials…we all have our favorites!

Allow me to do a sports metaphor here. For me at least, the Christmas “pre-season” starts when WJBR starts playing Christmas music! But when ‘Rudolph The Red-Nosed Reindeer’ TV special hit’s the air, its officially the “regular season” Game time!

So start planning your Christmas and Holiday TV special viewing! Look for your favorites below and put a reminder in your phone so you can relive those feelings of watching theses shows in your childhood home or with your own kids, and those you love most!

Ready Rudolph? READY SANTA!
