SHREK THE HALLS
December 23, 2014  | By David Bianculli

ABC, 8:00 p.m. ET

 

This 2007 TV special is a holiday sequel to the cinematic Shrek franchise, but by no means is a cheap knockoff. Like the films, it features Mike Myers as Shrek, Eddie Murphy as the Donkey, and Cameron Diaz as Princess Fiona. And yes, this one also allows for a return appearance by Antonio Banderas as Puss in Boots. It’s a fun movie-to-TV Christmas special – and ABC follows it at 8:30 p.m. ET with another one, a same-month repeat of the new Toy Story That Time Forgot computer-animated special, featuring the voices of Tom Hanks as Woody, Tim Allen as Buzz Lightyear and, hooray, Don Rickles as Mr. Potato Head.
