New Yorkers trapped in tiny apartments have seldom felt that they’re missing out on holiday charm. There’s always the Yule Log, broadcast originally 38 years ago and brought back in 2001 on WPIX—it’s even going national this year on fellow Tribune station WGN. (In case you’ve never seen it, the whole show is a camera trained close-up on a fireplace—a feature lacking in most New York apartments—with audio provided by a steady stream of Christmas carols.)

And for those who miss carolers, there’s no shortage of them on TV these days, thanks to ads.
