CoverStory By Michelle Wilson With just a few days left until the "big day," the scheduling elves are hard at work, making sure view- ers get their fill of all the holly, jolly programming TV has to offer. As the on-screen Santas are eager to deliver these programming packages, we took a sneak peek at who's been naughty and nice this holiday season. Nice — Food Network: There's sugar, spice and everything nice as the candied cable net bakes up the season finale of "Holiday Gingerbread Showdown" on Sunday, Dec. 22, followed by the season finales of "Holiday Baking Championship" and "Christmas Cookie Chal- lenge" on Monday, Dec. 23. Here's hoping Eddie Jackson left a cold glass of milk for the big guy. Nice — CBS: The net- work offers up its annual tradition of spotlighting inspirational stories of lives changed through adoption in Sunday's telecast of "A Home for the Holidays With Idina Menzel." Kids and Christmas go togeth- er like Rudolph and his nose-so-bright. Speaking of bright lights, "Come on down!," as the "The Price Is Right" unwraps two nights of holiday-themed specials featuring the cast of "SEAL Team" and Seth Rogen, airing Sunday and Monday. Naughty — Frank Shir- ley, "National Lampoon's Christmas Vacation": Because, what other list would you be on by being a cheap, lying, no-good, rotten, four-flushing, low- life, snake-licking, dirt-eat- ing ... well, you get the drift. Though it's been airing throughout the month on AMC, the season wouldn't be complete without the film's Christmas Eve show- ing on Tuesday, Dec. 24. No Tylenol needed. Naughty or nice? Santa's made a list and checked it twice The identity of the featured celebrity is found within the answers in the puzzle. In order to take the TV Challenge, unscramble the letters noted with asterisks within the puzzle. FREE ESTIMATES! 502 Walnut Street • Millersburg, IN 574-642-2670 Call to Schedule TODAY!
