Rudolph the Red Nosed Reindeer 8 p.m., CBS
You know Dasher and Dancer and Prancer and Vixen. But do you recall that Hermey, the blond elf from this animated holiday classic, is gayer than Ikea on Super Bowl Sunday?

Suddenly I’m feeling a lot more grateful for my mother’s famously overcooked turkey and lumpy gravy.
