Rudolph the Red-Nosed Reindeer to Air Tonight: Holiday Special Features Rudolph, Santa, and Misfit Toys
Beloved Christmas special Rudolph the Red-Nosed Reindeer returns to CBS on Monday, Nov. 27 at 8 p.m. ET. Get ready!
Get ready for the return of the beloved classic Christmas special, Rudolph the Red-Nosed Reindeer, as it makes its annual appearance on CBS tonight, Monday, Nov. 27 at 8 p.m. ET. This marks the start of the Christmas season and is sure to get everyone into the festive spirit.
Originally scheduled to air on Friday, Nov. 24, the date change for Rudolph's return to TV is a bit of a mystery. However, it seems that CBS wanted to fill a vacant time slot on Monday night, which is why the special was moved. Regardless, it's the perfect way to kick off the holiday season after Thanksgiving.
Narrated by Burl Ives, Rudolph the Red-Nosed Reindeer first premiered on NBC in 1964 and has been a staple on CBS since 1972. The special has been digitally remastered in HD and continues to be the longest-running Christmas TV special in the United States. It's a timeless classic that brings together fans of all ages to watch the heartwarming story of Rudolph and his friends at the North Pole.
While Rudolph has continued to captivate audiences, it has also faced criticism in recent years. Some viewers have pointed out the less-than-ideal behavior of Santa Claus and the bullying themes in the story. Despite this, the special remains a holiday tradition for many, with viewers tuning in year after year.
In addition to CBS, Rudolph the Red-Nosed Reindeer can also be seen as part of Freeform's 25 Days of Christmas lineup and will be aired multiple times throughout December. As the holiday season approaches, CBS is likely to feature more Christmas classics for viewers to enjoy.
So, mark your calendars and be sure to catch Rudolph the Red-Nosed Reindeer tonight at 8 p.m. ET on CBS. It's the perfect way to kick off the holiday season and get into the Christmas spirit.
