MeTV to Debut ‘Svengoolie’s Yule Log’ on It’s ‘Very Merry’ Celebration

The holidays are just around the corner, and MeTV is getting into the Christmas spirit with the return of its annual A Very Merry MeTV celebration, bringing a festive lineup of classic television episodes, holiday movies and animated specials to the small screen.

Beginning Sunday, November 22, and running through Christmas Day, the monthlong event will feature holiday favorites from across the network’s classic programming lineup.

This year’s festivities will also include a new special, Svengoolie’s Yule Log, premiering Christmas morning from 6 to 8 a.m. ET/PT. Trading his usual spooky setting for a cozy fireplace, horror host Svengoolie (Rich Koz) will spend two hours spreading holiday cheer alongside members of the Sven Squad and a few surprise guests.
