Tube Notes

TONIGHT'S MIGHT-SEE

Christmas movies: At 2 p.m., "A Christmas Story" (1983), TBS; at 4 p.m. and 8 p.m., "Scrooged" (1988), TBS; at 7 p.m., "Twice Upon a Christmas," Pax TV. "Scrooged" is an erratic, but sometimes very funny Bill Murray film. "A Christmas Story" is a classic, viewing a 1940s childhood with a sly blend of nostalgia and dark humor. "Twice Upon a Christmas" is a goofy sequel that somehow works.

OF NOTE

Skating, 7 p.m., NBC. Here's the second half of "Skaters' Championship," with Tara Lipinski and Kurt Browning.

"Saturday Night Live," 10:30 p.m., NBC. The Brits take over tonight. Hugh Jackman plays host with Mick Jagger as musical guest.
