The TV programs for this Monday, December 16, 2024 begin the holiday sequence, with numerous series and TV films events. But watch out for reheats and rebroadcasts!
It has become a tradition every year, starting in mid-December. Before and during the holidays, many “event” programs flood the TV schedule with snow, romance, suspense or even humor around the tree. We are obviously talking about Christmas films which have already started to hit the small screen, like glitter on garlands. But there are also new TV movies and a handful of special episodes of well-known series. Beautiful gifts, in short, offered by the channels to viewers.
But be careful! Each year, a good number of rebroadcasts also blend in with the new and exceptional episodes. And we quickly find ourselves faced with a plot that vaguely reminds us of something or that smells a little too reheated. We're sorting out the TV films and series for the coming week!
