While I know WGN's cable feed (WGN America) has been on a nostalgia kick lately (rerunning old sitcoms like WKRP in Cincinnati, the Munsters, etc.), this is a *big* surprise----probably the first time any of the Hanna-Barbera cartoons have aired outside of CN/Boomerang's Time-Warner-owned iron-fisted grip in years.

For those that grew up in/near Chicago like I did, "Yogi's FIrst Christmas" was always a staple of (local) WGN's broadcasts every Christmas back in the 80s...

Have to wonder what the local-WGN plans on airing for Christmas specials...
