There are a still a few networks with normal TV schedules tonight, Thursday, Dec. 5. However, there are a lot of Christmas specials starting to happen.

It’s the first week of December. This is the time that a lot of networks begin their holiday programming. However, some networks still have new episodes of popular shows, whether you’re in the mood for comedy, drama, or reality. All you need to know is what’s on the schedule!

Ghosts, Crime Scene Kitchen, and more

CBS has a full lineup of new episodes of its Thursday shows. That means kicking things off with Georgie and Mandy’s First Marriage. This popular comedy series will see Georgie join a church with an ulterior motive. He wants to sell tires to the congregation. That’s going to go down well when everyone learns what he’s really doing.

There’s also a new episode of Ghosts, and it’s time to dive back into the world of Sam’s book. Her publisher wants the source material for all the claims that Sam has made in her book. How much of Isaac’s own story has he embellished? After all, we know that we all tend to be the heroes of our stories, but could we be the villains? Could we not be the important masterminds that we considered ourselves to be? Sam and Jay are about to find out.

ABC has its holiday programming going now. Thursdays are going to be all about the The Great Christmas Light Fight. This is the 12th season of the series, which will see families battle it out to prove that they have the best Christmas decorations for their home. Who will walk away with the prize?

Crime Scene Kitchen is a must-watch. It’s the season finale, and time for the final three teams to prove that they have what it takes to win. This is such a fun show to check out, and we’re hoping to see it renewed for the next season. It’s worth it!
