What to watch Christmas Day

10 a.m. (ABC): "Walt Disney World Christmas Day Parade." What Christmas Day would be complete without seeing Regis Philbin and Kelly Ripa host this annual parade through the Florida theme park? Ryan Seacrest is also on board for the ride.
1 p.m. (WPIX/Ch. 11): "March of the Wooden Soldiers." Stan Laurel and Oliver Hardy star in this 1934 holiday classic.
5 (ABC) "NBA:" The Boston Celtics visit the Los Angeles Lakers in a rematch of the 2008 NBA Finals.
8 (NBC) "Deal or No Deal:" Howie Mandel and the gang behind the popular game show know how to celebrate the holiday. NBC is giving the show two hours tonight, each with a Christmas theme, which, any fan knows, includes the 26 models decked out for the big day.
8 (COM) "Bad Santa:" This really isn't kid fare, but it is a Christmas classic with a twist. Billy Bob Thornton plays a booze-fueled con artist who lands a job playing Santa in a department store, and then robs the place. Also stars Lauren Graham of "Gilmore Girls" fame.
8 (WNET/Ch. 13) "Ballet Shoes." Yasmin Paige, Lucy Boynton and Emma Watson play orphans raised as sisters. Set in the 1930s, the film is about family, fame and chasing dreams.
8 (DIS) "Mickey's Twice Upon a Christmas." Now, this is kid fare, with the key Disney classic characters appearing in a series of animated holiday segments.
8:30 (ESPN) "SportsCenter Year in Review." Ready to start looking back on the year that was? ESPN clipmeisters pack 90 minutes of prime time with a look back at the top sports news stories and highlights of 2008.
9 (FOX) "Kitchen Nightmares." The network is using two episodes tonight. This, the second, revolves around chef Gordon Ramsay trying to help the folks at the Handlebar Restaurant & Lounge in Mount Sinai, N.Y., get the business on track. If you watch, you may never eat in another restaurant - ever. day after christmas sales, after christmas sale, after christmas sales, day after christmas, day after christmas ads
