Più recente (2003) e senza dubbio originale, l’invenzione in The O.C. di Seth Cohen del Chrismukkah nell’episodio La festa di tutti (1x13), in cui il ragazzo descrive all’amico Ryan la sua brillante idea di unire la tradizione cristiana del Natale a quella ebraica dell’Hannukkah, per far sì che tutti possano festeggiare insieme senza barriere legate a religione e cultura.
E voi? A quale episodio natalizio siete più legati? Quale serie tv associate maggiormente al giorno di Natale?

Stracult e Stracotti …ovvero la serie che questa settimana va su e quella che inevitabilmente va giù.Parola di Stargirl!
A Natale si sa, siamo tutti più buoni, e anche Stargirl non poteva esimersi e per una volta, chiuderò un occhio e per questa settimana (ma non fateci l’abitudine) metterò da parte le serie Stracotte, e mi concentrerò sugli episodi Stracult a tema natalizio.
Un salto nel passato fa sempre piacere, no? Passando per il più attuale Natale in casa Glee, o quello tra le corsie d’ospedale di Grey’s Anatomy o House MD, o quello estremamente chic di Gossip Girl, infatti, uno sguardo indietro per riportare alla memoria episodi indimenticabili del piccolo schermo trasmessi ormai qualche anno fa.
Qualche anno più tardi, nel 1995 per la precisione, ci ritrovammo a ridere a crepapelle in un’esilarante puntata della sitcom più famoso degli ultimi anni,
Friends. Un caldo Natale, episodio 2x09, vede i protagonisti della comedy stretti intorno all’albero di Monica, nello storico appartamento a Manhattan, in canottiera e shorts visto il clima hot totalmente inaspettato, dovuto a un guasto irreparabile nei caloriferi aggravato dall’intervento di Joey. Tra regali bizzarri, come dimenticare la spada laser acquistata dall’irresistibile personaggio interpretato da Matt LeBlanc, e padre ritrovati, in questo caso quello di Phoebe, la puntata si conclude come d’abitudine in un suono di fragorose risate.

NEWS -A Natale siamo tutti più buoni (sconto). E allora seguite l'esempio di "Glee" per fare del bene al prossimo...
Articolo tratto da "The Hollywood Reporter"
When Fox announced this month that 100 percent of the net proceeds from Glee’s cover of 1984’s “Do They Know It’s Christmas” would go to The Band Aid Trust and support the same organization the track benefited more than 20 years ago, it was just the latest positive note in the show’s history. In its three years, Glee – and its growing cast – has supported a plethora of charities, most recently providing $1 million in donations to support music education through its Glee Give A Note campaign, which saw schools in Ohio, New York and Alabama each receive $50,000 in grand prize cash. Created by the network, Glee co-creator Ryan Murphy and the National Association of Music Education, the Give A Note campaign uses funds raised through the show’s DVD and Blu-ray sales to support struggling arts education programs across the country and, through its Web site, encourages fans of the series to do the same.
“Many of the actors on the show are the direct result of arts education programs, and speaking for myself, I would not be where I am today without these programs,” says Matthew Morrison, who plays New Directions coach Will Schuester.
In addition to the show’s efforts, several of its cast members have devoted time and energy to charities outside of the show – including Morrison, who’s involved with the Grammy Foundation, which works to promote the importance and impact of music and arts education and music preservation.
“The Grammy Foundation’s programs in schools across the country are so important because with budget cuts these days, arts programs are often the first ones to be axed,” he says. “These programs are critical for children’s education and development, and that’s one of the reasons I’m so passionate about this charity”.
Glee’s massive online popularity -- the show has more than 17 million Facebook fans and nearly 1.1 million Twitter followers, not to mention the hundreds of thousands the cast have – also has a ripple affect on the various charities the cast backs.
Jenna Ushkowitz (Tina Cohen-Chang) and Harry Shum Jr. (Mike Chang), back causes that strike a particular chord for them.
Ushkowitz, who grew up wanting to be a marine biologist, is a big supporter of Oceana, an international group working to protect the world’s oceans and says the show’s massive fan base helps to spread the word about the various organizations.
“I can thank social media – Twitter – and all our fans and followers for spreading the word and making people aware,” she says. “Our dedicated fans are our future so it’s incredibly important that they are the ones informing one another and doing anything to make a difference.”
Best known for his dancing, Shum is involved with three charities: Drea’s Dream, Invisible Children and Do Something, which help children with cancer and special needs through the power of dance; ending the use of child soldiers in Northern Uganda; and an online group looking to mobilize teens.
“We have some of the best fans, they’re so supportive of not only the show but charities we are involved with,” he says. “It means a lot to me because through social media I am able to raise awareness and introduce to people in a way they can be involved”.
For Mike O’Malley, who plays Burt Hummel -- aka the world’s most perfect father -- supporting his hometown plays a big role in his charitable considerations. He's donated large sums of his own money to a score of charities in his hometown of Nashua, N.H., including Marguerite’s Place and the Nashua Children’s Home, in addition to setting up two scholarships for his former theater professors at the University of New Hampshire, and a pair of foundations through Major League Baseball’s Boston Red Sox.
“I give to my hometown charities because I feel strongly that my town and the people there had a lot to do with who I am,” says the actor, who has donated more than $100,000 to the Adult Learning Center where his mother worked. “I want to give back to the place where I was raised even though I don’t get back there as much as I can”.
Mark Salling (Noah Puckerman) backs a pair of organizations: the Wildlife Care of Ventura County, a nonprofit volunteer group that rehabilitates native wildlife; and Child Hunger Ends Here, which turns UPC codes from ConAgra Foods products into meals for the more than 17 million kids who don’t get a proper meal every day.
“It’s the holiday season and a time for giving and it’s a really easy way for people to help out with a domestic issue like child hunger,” Salling says.
Cory Monteith (Finn Hudson) serves as an ambassador for Virgin Unite, a nonprofit that helps connect people with the right ideas for social change with others with greater resources in order to foster change.
A PETA spokeswoman, Lea Michele (Rachel Berry) is one of the many cast members active with gay-rights groups, as is Kevin McHale (Artie Abrams), who works with the Trevor Project’s Talk to Me campaign, which aims to prevent suicide among LGBT youth.
Max Adler, who plays Kurt’s reformed bully Dave Karofsky, is active with City Hearts’ Anti-Bullying initiative, most recently helping sixth graders in Los Angeles stage an anti-bullying play.
Jane Lynch has been a longtime supporter of the Los Angeles Gay & Lesbian Center, recently earning the facility’s Rand Schrader Distinguished Achievement Award for her contributions.
And there are others. The cast -- which includes Chris Colfer (Kurt), Amber Riley (Mercedes), Naya Rivera (Santana), Heather Morris (Brittany), Dianna Agron (Quinn), Jayma Mays (Emma Pillsbury) and Darren Criss (Blaine) – are regulars at fundraisers, lending their time for projects including Education Through Music, the Alzheimer’s Association’s The Elephant Project and The Trevor Project, among countless others.
And while the show’s fandom has helped support the individual charities the cast holds dear, it’s the show’s arts education message that ultimately benefits the most.
“Glee has brought a renewed focus on music education in the schools and overall arts education,” Morrison says. “Glee clubs have literally sprouted up across the country, and as parents and communities have seen the joy it brings to students, this has encouraged support for these programs and helped prevent funding cuts”.

NEWS - Skyahi-ahi-ahi! Fox si dimentica di annunciare la pausa di "American Horror Story" (ma allora non è solo la tv generalista a toppare nella considerazione del pubblico...!)
La questione è vitale. Da sempre è leggenda acquisita che la tv generalista - in special modo quella commerciale - consideri con sufficienza il suo pubblico, oltretutto fruitore di programmi tv gratuitamente e perciò passibile di spostamenti, cancellazioni, mancanza di comunicazioni in merito...Si tira in ballo, molte volte a ragione, il cosiddetto "rispetto" negato. Il che fa il paio con l'altra leggenda dichiarata del satellite che, al contrario (essendo a pagamento), rispetta la filologia dei telefilm, comunica per tempo (e soprattutto: quello che annuncia, trasmette). Fatto sta che, caso più unico che raro, l'altra sera (martedì), molti si sono assiepati davanti alle tv per seguire il settimo episodio di "American Horror Story"...che però non è stato trasmesso. Aldilà delle cause e dei motivi (legittimi) della sospensione per una settimana, al momento ancora sconosciuti però, nessuna comunicazione è stata postata sul sito della Fox, nessuno spot ad hoc, nessun comunicato stampa...Solo la voce dello speaker al termine della puntata scorsa, ai più sfuggita o qualche risposta sul forum. Nessuna comunicazione in bell'evidenza, insomma. Come abbiamo appreso dall'attenta e puntuale Chiara Poli sulla pagina dell'Accademia dei Telefilm (http://www.facebook.com/groups/180864228656010/), la settima puntata di "AHS" andrà regolarmente in onda martedì prossimo (27 dicembre). Sì, però occhio Fox, che l'Uomo di Lattice vi guarda!

NEWS - Più web series per tutti! Anche GAY.tv si lancia sui telefilm on line con un tris di titoli gayfriendly
Dalla comicità di Super G al drama di Anyone But Me fino alla lotta per i diritti gay di Ask a Family Gay, tre generi diversi per l’intrattenimento seriale di GAY.tv che dal lunedì al mercoledì propone dalle ore 17.00 le web series gayfriendly del momento arricchendo così la sezione video del magazine.
Il lunedì si ride con le avventure di Super Cane e Super Cicala ovvero i protagonisti di Super G, la web series prodotta da FlopTV, la web tv comedy di Fox Channels Italy. Francesco Montanari (Super Cane) e Riccardo De Filippis (Super Cicala) sono i Super G, una bizzarra coppia di supereroi divertenti e rigorosamente omosessuali con la missione di sconfiggere le forze del male grazie ai loro superpoteri. In ogni episodio i due improbabili personaggi devono destreggiarsi tra dubbi amletici e colleghi incompetenti. Scavalcando grattacieli in fiamme, disinnescando esplosioni galattiche e sconfiggendo pericolosi delinquenti, i Super G conquisteranno i cuori del pubblico di GAY.tv!
Martedì è, invece, il giorno della prima stagione del web drama Anyone But me, che ha già raggiunto 11 milioni di visualizzazioni in tutto il mondo. La serie racconta la storia di Vivian McMillan (Rachael Hip-Flores), una giovanissima sedicenne omosessuale, che è costretta a trasferirsi a Westchester nella casa della zia materna a causa della malattia del padre. Vivian tenta tra mille difficoltà di mantenere vivo il suo rapporto con la fidanzata Aster Gaston (Nicole Pacent) e nello stesso tempo cerca però di crearsi una nuova vita in un ambiente diverso da quello della città in cui era nata e cresciuta.
Mercoledì è la volta del factual Ask a Family Gay. Jay e Bryan sono una coppia gay che vive nel nord della California. Insieme ai loro due figli, Daniel e Selena, hanno deciso di mostrarsi su YouTube per raccontare la loro storia e lottare contro gli stereotipi e la discriminazione. Il loro obiettivo è quello di dimostrare, giorno per giorno, che una famiglia di genitori omosessuali non ha niente di meno rispetto ad una definita "tradizionale". Per far questo hanno deciso di mettere la propria everyday life in piazza anzi in Rete, e di far parlare le immagini, i figli e la loro quotidianità.
GAY.tv, proprietà di Xat Production, è passata da ottobre 2011 completamente sotto la gestione di YAM112003 (an Endemol Company). La raccolta pubblicitaria è invece affidata alla concessionaria tgadv.

NEWS - Katherine Heigl: "non sono antipatica, è solo che non accetto le critiche (come tutte le donne)"! Sfogo-intervista dell'attrice di "Grey's Anatomy" su "Elle"
Articolo tratto dall'"Huffington Post"
Just give Katherine Heigl a chance. She promises you'll like her. The Emmy-winning actress and public vitriol dartboard features on the cover of this month's Elle Magazine, and in her interview, tries to clear up some of the negative feelings that seem to jump to mind when her name is mentioned. Gone are the speechwriters to help write answers for interviews, explanations, false sentiment in magazine profiles and all the other preparations (which culminated in this EW cover story) that caused her "months and months of self-hatred."
"I think it's a female thing," she tells the magazine. "I'm just that asshole who really wants everyone to like me, and it's a ridiculous goal and it's an impossible goal. But I think if I just keep pushing forward and showing myself through and through, they will see me again for what I really am and not what has been sort of spun about me."
That being said, Heigl admits that "I look at some of what I had to say, and I'm like, Oh my God, I would tell myself to shut up, too."
The things she had to say, in fact, were largely limited to a few public pronouncements that were critical of those writing her scripts. In 2009, she told Vanity Fair that she had a problem with the way her character, a sensitive and sometimes shrill entertainment reporter who gets pregnant with Seth Rogen's child, was portrayed. It was, "a little sexist," she said. "It paints the women as shrews, as humorless and uptight, and it paints the men as lovable, goofy, fun-loving guys. It exaggerated the characters, and I had a hard time with it, on some days. I'm playing such a bitch; why is she being such a killjoy? Why is this how you're portraying women? Ninety-eight percent of the time it was an amazing experience, but it was hard for me to love the movie."
Rogen was upset at the time, but recently told Shortlist.com that he had let it go. "I think that at the time I was offended about it, but since then... I mean, you do so much press that, odds are, you're going to say something f*cking stupid every once in a while," he said. "Of the million things I say every day, 400 of them are stupid as hell [laughs]. And any one of them might wind up in a newspaper or a magazine at any given time. So at this point I'm much more forgiving of that kind of thing."
Heigl also received criticism for her perceived slam at her show "Grey's Anatomy," when she said that she did not submit for an Emmy because she didn't think any of her character's episodes were worthy of the award -- a year after she had won it.
By late 2010, Heigl was defending what she had said.
"I've been told I'm too forthright with opinions," Heigl told the New York Times. "Well do they want a fierce woman or milquetoast? Should I be me, or should I pretend to be something I think people want? Pretending seems pretty ridiculous to me...I didn't think that what I was was so bad that I needed to hide it."
With a new movie coming out, Heigl's hoping that she can win over audiences once again -- or she's in big trouble. She'll feature as a big screen adaptation of Janet Evanovich's serial novel character Stephanie Plum, a caustic New Jersey girl.
"I tend to sensationalize. I overdramatize. And I think everything is at stake -- my life, my career, my family, everything is at stake if this movie doesn't do well."

QUIZ - La Miss Natalizia era...
Era Katherine Heigl ("Grey's Anatomy") la Miss Natalizia al centro del Quiz di lunedì scorso che scarpinava felicemente con borsa-valigia al seguito e tutina aderente...Complimenti agli indoviantori piviere e GianLuca. Vista da davanti Kat sorprende per gli occhialoni al plasma che la fanno tanto sembrare Raffaella Carrà, complice un ciuffo a schiaffo che ucciderebbe il più distratto dei passanti...(in effetti Kat ha già messo mani al portafogli per un eventuale rimborso ospedaliero...)

NEWS - Tg Telefilm: la crisi economica non frena la voglia di ridere degli studenti della Bocconi. La web-serie “18 e lode”, interpretata e scritta dagli universitari del celebre ateneo, è girata per i corridoi della Bocconi
Cucadores, squinzie, problemi di studio, nonnismi al gusto fashion. Questi gli ingredienti di 18 e Lode, la web series made in Bocconi al centro dell’ultima puntata di Tg Telefilm di Bonsai TV (WWW.YOUTUBE.COM/BONSAITV) che chiude questo 2011 con una sola speranza: che la nuova generazione di economisti chiamata a salvare il Paese non sia quella rappresentata dalla serie…

Top&Flop di Natale con i ragazzi di Subsfactory in vena di essere buoni: promozione a pieni voti per "Once Upon a Time" favolosa per idee e cast…e solo un semplice richiamo per "I hate my teenage daughter", dove le numerose scene esilaranti sono rovinate da un retrogusto di già visto.
Tg Telefilm, condotto da Manuel Masi, giunge così all’ultimo appuntamento della sua seconda stagione, chiudendo un anno ricco di news, curiosità, classifiche, segreti e retroscena delle serie tv più attese.
