A holiday special, featuring Robert Smigel (Triumph the Insult Comic Dog) as the voice of the Krampus, the legendary Christmas demon. Here's what's going on: "Ricky's perfect Christmas is threatened when the Aquabats arrive in a strange village and are convicted of breaking a law that forbids any Yuletide celebration. Their only chance at saving themselves and Christmas is for the big man himself, Santa, to lend a mitten"
Atlantis (9 PM, BBC America):
More intrigue with the Atlantean royal family — which means more Alexander Siddig scowling, so we're down. Here's what's up: "A clandestine messenger brings unexpected news to princess Ariadne – her exiled brother Therus has sent for her. Ariadne must decide where her loyalties lie – in Atlantis or with her royal sibling. But Therus is determined to share the truth behind his exile with his sister, exposing a plot that could overshadow Minos's power and bring the royal family to its knees."
Also on TV today: Hub Network has the midseason finale of Spooksville at 5:30 PM, and a new R.L. Stine at 7:30 PM.
As we get closer to Christmas, there's basically nothing on television, whatsoever. A total dead zone. You'll notice there aren't even any weird Christmas TV movies about an uptight businesswoman falling in love with Santa this week, because it's too Christmassy even for Christmas TV movies.
Also on TV today: Nicktoons has a new Digimon Fusion at 11:30 AM, followed by a new Yu-Gi-Oh!. At 10 PM, Animal Planet has a new Finding Bigfoot, Weather has a new Freaks of Nature, and DA has a new Monsters and Mysteries in America.
